Steve Hiroyuki Aoki, namely famous as Steve Aoki was born on November 30, 1977. He is an American electro house musician and record producer. He was also the founder of Dim Mak Records.

Steve Aoki was born in Miami and grew up in Newport Beach, California. Aoki graduated from Newport Harbor High School in 1995. Steve Aoki studied in the University of California, Santa Barbara and graduated with two B.A's in Sociology and Women's Studies. Aoki formed do-it-yourself records in college and ran underground concerts in the Santa Barbara Student Housing Cooperative which was located in Isla Vista. Soon Aoki's apartment became famous as a concert venue known as "The Pickle Patch". Dim Mak was his own record label built in the early 20s after his childhood hero, Bruce Lee. Not only this, Aoki was also a part of various bands like This Machine Kills, which released an album on Ebullition Records, Esperanza, and The Fire Next Time.

Aoki founded his own label, Dim Mak Records, in 1996. The label has released music by other electro house artists such as The Bloody Beetroots, Felix Cartel, MSTRKRFT, Mustard Pimp, Klaxons, Scanners, Whitey, and Mystery Jets.. He has also teamed up with Blake Miller of the LA-based band Moving Units to produce remixes. Aoki's solo album, "WonderLand" was released in January 2012 which featured guest musicians like LMFAO, Kid Cudi, Travis Barker and many more
Aoki has also been busy in various collaborations with other fellow producers and released his singles with artists like The Bloody Beetroots, Afrojack, Tiesto, Tai and more. Aoki has also shown teasers of his future collaborations with artists like Diplo, Rune, Dirtyphonics and many more.

With a massive crowd and crazy music fans, these Sunburn festivals were also reportedly a great success, taking the Sunburn festival to a different level.

Sunburn 2007 :


Early 2007, Percept had a brainchild. India needed to experience its very own festival. Not just any festival, but the cream of the crop of festivals in the country. This was Devraj Sanyal, Manuj Agarwal and Aman Anand’s calling and together they conspired to give birth to India’s own festival of a legend. Sunburn 2007, Goa, a festival, an extravagance event.

- Percept and sunburn Festival.

Not only this, this year Sunburn launched the after parties named " After Dark " which took place at the club Butter from 10:30pm to 5:00 am. This made Sunburn, a 24 hour festival.

Infected Mushroom


INFECTED MUSHROOM

Do you think you know about INFECTED MUSHROOM???


Infected Mushroom is an Israeli psytrance/electronica duo formed in Haifa in late 1997 by producers Erez Eisen, who uses the moniker "Eisen", and Amit Duvdevani, or "Duvdev". The duo's style has evolved in the 2000s to include trip-hop, industrial rock and goa. They employ a variety of musical sources, including acoustic guitars, choirs, and complex synthesized basses, in compositions that often contain constant changes of drum beat and tempo. Infected Mushroom's live shows feature vocals and analogue instruments in performances that are set against a multimedia backdrop.



Members :

Erez Eisen




Eisen was born on 8 September 1980 in Qiryat Yam, Israel. He began classical training at a young age, learning to play the organ at age 4 and studying classical piano at the Haifa Conservatory from the age of 8. Eisen became involved with computerized music at age 11, beginning with Impulse Tracker and later moving to more advanced musical composition software

Eisen had collaborated with DJ Jörg and other notable psy-trance artists by the age of 18, and has released three albums and a multitude of tracks under different psy-trance monikers including Shidapu and Shiva Shidapu.

Amit Duvdevani


Amit Duvdevani was born on 7 November 1974 in Israel, and had a similar musical background. He started to play the piano at age seven and continued to do so for nine years, then turned to heavy metal and punk rock. Amit played keyboards and wrote most of the material for Haifa punk rock band Enzyme. He attended his first trance party in 1991, and has more than once described this as a life-changing experience, after which he could think of nothing but trance music. He was conscripted into the Israeli army, where he was first nicknamed Duvdev, a week later. After he finished his national service, Amit spent a year in India, primarily in Goa, and decided to make music himself. He collaborated with a member of Shidapu on four tracks, which were never released.
