There are artists who live their lives learning how to perform and to interact with the crowd and then there is Johan Gielen. A natural born performer and as charismatic as his bright blonde hair, Johan is in a league of his own when it comes to showmanship. Not only does he captivate the crowd from the moment he enters the stage but his music selection and technically sounds mixing skills are second to none. There are a few select DJ's that carry the Superstar persona and Johan Gielen is included in this elite group.

Often referred to as one of the Dutch Ambassadors of dance by his fans, Johan is not only a worldwide performer but also an accomplished producer. His music is continually supported by every possible name in the industry, has countless remixes under his name and has worked with everyone from Boy George, Thrillseekers, Delerium and Tiesto.

He has had numerous Top 10 records around the globe in countries such as Germany, Austria, France, Switzerland, The UK and his native homeland, The Netherlands.

His debut artist album "Revelations" was released on Tiesto's Black Hole Recordings and captured the imagination of his fans worldwide. And with a new artist album in his sights along with a number of collaborations with a few of his A-List pals, we can only expect to see an upward rise to this Belgium born Dutchman.

Holland maybe Johan's home but the worldwide stage is where he lives, and this is clearly visible when his many passports look like a stamp collection and at any given time he has enough air miles to travel the world six times over.

Johan Gielen has repeatedly performed at almost every major dance music festival, rave and super club our planet has to offer. The long list includes Dance Valley, ID&T: Sensation White, Sunrise Festival, The Guvernment. Space, Godskitchen, and many more, and is the only artist to have performed 14 times at the prestigious Trance Energy.

There are a very few people in this industry who have not heard of the name Johan Gielen and as his portfolio of performances and productions continues to grow, the future will be no exception.

GLOBAL pres DJ MASON (NL)

More Info       
Probably best known for one of last year's cross-over hits Exceeder, DJ Mason aka super Dutch producer Iason Chronis is hot stuff the world over at the moment. From having hit records, to playing violin with Tiesto in concert to producing records that are constantly in the playlists of Pete Tong and Fat Boy Slim to Eric Prydz and Tiga, this guys is having an incredible year thus far. Look no further if you are a true trend spotter and dance music fan... legend in the making and party starter extraordinaire. GET READY FOR DJ MASON.

DJ Biography:

Every now and again one of those records comes around that defies being pigeon holed and given a label. Mason burst onto the dance scene with their groundbreaking tune 'Exceeder' back in 2006. The record swiftly went from destroying dance floors to tearing it up the World's charts and laying the foundations for more forward thinking music.

This record, along with most of what Mason produced since falls into the same category. It's not about making records for a particular set of Djs or scene but just good honest music! As a result Mason's tunes are played by a huge array of decksman from Pete Tong and Fat Boy Slim to Eric Prydz and Tiga.

Using Iason's classical violin training coupled with a love of diverse music and a hi-tech apprenticeship in a ring tone sweatshop, together with his studio and live partner Coen – a man fixated with ancient synths, playing in rock bands and a mean vocalist to boot – the Mason boys are now forging their own unique path. The duo have the musical arsenal required to make everything from filthy late night dance club bombs to daytime radio anthems. These Dutchmen are unpredictable in both what is played in the club and what is created in the studio.

The Mason sound takes a great understanding of melody and fuses it with technological know-how sheer musicianship and dance floor savvy. It is dance music for the thinking man, but not so clever to be alienating and dull. A debut artist album is taking shape at the moment and features some interesting styles and flavours as well as guests such as NYC rapping legend Kurtis Blow and Timo Maas collaborator MC Chickaboo.

With a Worldwide hit record under their belt for Data/Ministry Of Sound as well as numerous releases and remixes for labels like Great Stuff, Skint, Pickadoll and Brique Rouge Mason continue to garner respect from above as well as under ground.

Humour is a long forgotten part of music and something Mason is keen to re-introduce as a key ingredient. Anyone listening to his "de-mix" of Exceeder being replayed by a brass band will know the boys aren't taking things too seriously. Forthcoming album track titles such as 'Who Killed Trance' and 'Bigboy Exercises' are also refreshingly tongue-in-cheek.

Behind the decks, or CDJ's at least, Iason, the dj-ing face of 'Mason', has honed his craft for over fourteen years since falling for the grooves of early hip hop and spinning in his local clubs. Things progressed to warming up for Global mega star Tiësto at his gigs around the World where Mason also jammed violin to his own and his compatriot's sets. The fiddle has since been rested, but Mason continues to rock crowds wherever he plays. He has headlined at some of the World's finest clubs and festivals including headlining the massively opulent 'Sensation White' parties around Europe as well as appearing with top billing at Dance Valley in Holland and at Creamfields in the UK.

Mason is currently resident at trailblazing club night 'Electronation'. The uber cool Dutch based event also had Mason compile and mix their five-year anniversary album this year. Speaking of mixes, there are more to come with 'The Amsterdam Tapes', Mason's very own album series to be released this Spring as well as a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix shortly after.

2008 is set to be a big one for Mason both as a production team and as a DJ. If sheer talent and karma have anything to do with it then expect to be hearing this name a lot in the future.
