BIO'S:
| KENNETH THOMAS |
"Kenneth Thomas is without doubt one of the most promising young DJs in the electronic scene right now. There's an intelligence and a well defined style to his sets. He's quickly emerging as one to watch in the next generation of superstar DJs".
When Paul Oakenfold has this to say about someone people can tend to stop and take a listen. Following in an elite class consisting of Dave Ralph, D:Fuse & Hernan Cattaneo, its seems every 5 years or so Oakenfold hand picks a future star to take under his wing and the latest selection is Kenneth Thomas.
Out of Detroit, the birthplace of Techno, KT stands out with his emotional and melodic sound. Some might not see the connection of Detroit and his sound, but the connection is there. The same aggression that spawned the techno sounds of the 90's is the fuel that fires Kenneth to explore the emotional side of the musical experience. Music has always been a spiritual place for Kenneth and because the depth of this music goes well beyond a conscious level, there's an underlying exploration of emotion and experience in every set and track.
In the last three years, Kenneth has also become a juggernaut in the studio having completed over 40 tracks and remixes for labels including Baroque, Armada, Om, Perfecto, Cuurve, Alter Ego, Hope and more. Now, busy working on his second EP for Markus Schulzs' Coldharbour and coming off recent remixes for David Guetta, Jan Johnston, Oliver Moldan, Jeff Mills and even Scott Wieland, we have seen this Dj at heart break new ground in the areas of production. Beyond DJing & Producing, KT is now also A&R for Perfecto Records and is helping spearhead the renaissance of one of the greatest labels dance music has ever seen.
The future is bright for Kenneth Thomas. Now touring regularly around the world sharing his blend of progressive minded dance music his focus has never changed since day one, "This is the most amazing sound I have ever encountered, I just want to share it with as many people as possible".
| TRENT CANTRELLE |
Starting out in New Orleans in the early 90s Trent Cantrelle was constantly called upon to adapt his skills and sound to a dizzying array of circumstances. He gained much of his experience as the go-to DJ for the notorious promoter, Disco Donnie. When he wasn't dodging the feds, it was these events where Trent received the opportunity to play alongside all of the top names in club music from Fatboy Slim to Sasha & Digweed, to Oakenfold and Derrick Carter. If a major jock rolled through New Orleans, no matter how different their style, Trent was always sharing the bill. In addition to these varied and high profile gigs Trent headlined around town and was also somehow able to find time for the occasional ten hour set. At one point he even had a residency where he got to fill all ten hours every week. Not a lot of DJs can handle too many extra long sets, or can excel at an opening slot one night and peak time the next, and even fewer can cater their sound to complement such a diverse range of DJs but somehow Trent manages to do all of that and more.
After mastering any DJ-ing situation you could think of and reigning supreme as the top name in New Orleans for a few years, Trent decided to expand his horizons and hit the road for the West Coast. Deciding to skip the mecca of Deep and Groovy that is San Francisco, Trent headed towards the glamour and glory of Hollywood where his love of Rock and Roll and his passion for film could be indulged along with his electronic sensibilities. It is in LA that Trent's production work really took off on a global level. As his own tracks began charting high on labels like Ministry of Sound, Interscope, Little Mountain Recordings, Whoop!, and SR2 and getting play by just about every big name DJ you can throw out there, he started to build his la DJ profile and beyond. His talents have taken him everywhere you could expect, rocking the top dance-floors in NYC, Chicago, Las Vegas, Miami, Mexico, South America as well as all the top spots in his new home LA.
When his smash rock hybrid hit "Runaway", co written with Nynex got essential new tune and scored as one of the top tunes at WMC 2005 he was clocked by Pete Tong as "One of the hottest dance talents from the US". For those who had seen him spin or heard his tracks, this was old news. Since then he has more than lived up to the billing, constantly one-upping himself. He has DJ-ed at the Playboy Mansion. He plays some of the biggest clubs such as Space Terrace in Miami, Pacha and Crobar New York, and Avalon in Los Angeles. He rocked in the New Year for LA's GIANT MAXIMUS New Years Eve bash. Not to mention touring alongside Pete Tong, Sandra Collins and Sander Kleinenberg from time to time. He even performed at America's best outdoor music festival, Coachella this past year. His original tracks and remixes continue to appear on compilation after compilation. Then, just for good measure, his remix of Maroon 5's "Make Me Wonder" hit number one on the Billboard dance charts.
On the horizon is an upcoming remix off of Seal's new album for Warner Brothers, a variety of singles on labels such as Little Mountain Recordings, Organized Nature, and more. 2008 will also see the release of his full-length artist album. On the DJ-ing front he will be hosting his own "Sounds Like" residency night at LA's Avalon, as well as new digital label. From being the leading DJ in New Orleans and Los Angeles, to a leading producer around the world there is not much Trent Cantrelle has not done. But if he hasn't done it yet, chances are that Trent will be doing it soon.
