Match it with a keen instinct for electronic music, edgy personal style and a playful personality to arrive at one of today’s most gifted new stars. AUDREY NAPOLEON is simply electric. While working at Hollywood hot-spot Geisha House, she discovered her passion for DJing. From there came producing original tracks, two national residencies in Los Angeles (Avalon, Music Box) and continual invitations to play parties throughout Europe. AUDREY NAPOLEON made her global debut in December 2011 in Heineken®’s “Sunrise Belongs To Moderate Drinkers” international campaign, an 85-second film that has received almost 3 million views on YouTube set to her original production “#mysunrise,” now available through Beatport. Today, AUDREY NAPOLEON’s sought-after music style reveals roots that are deep, dark, anthemic and techno based. Her buoyant signature sound, which she describes as a dark romance, and her lively stage presence is what sets AUDREY apart when spinning at top clubs around the world and sharing the stage with an array of massive talent from techno legend Richie Hawtin, deadmau5, Wolfgang Gartner and Nic Fanciulli to Umek, Joris Voorn, Simian Mobile Disco, M.A.N.D.Y. and more. To fully experience AUDREY’s production work, check out her singles like “Bird Lynch,” featuring Penny and “Everybody Has The Right,” her recent collaboration with D. Ramirez on Toolroom Records, or her current free downloads “Foxy Boxy,” “Banana Soda Es Muy Loca” and “Bitchy Queen.” Look for more exciting things for the AUDREY NAPOLEON takeover in 2012. BORGORE Saturday, March 24 Ultra Music Festival at Bayfront Park www.buygore.com www.facebook.com/borgore www.twitter.com/borgore www.soundcloud.com/buygore www.msopr.com/n/client-roster/borgore Hailing from Israel via London, BORGORE—bass culture’s enfant terrible—has returned to terrorize speakers and stages yet again with a new release and tour. The man who claims he “ruined dubstep” comes to Miami in support of FLEX, his fifth EP of original material out now on his own Buygore label. The 4-song EP represents the latest salvo in the 24-year-old producer/songwriter/DJ’s rapid ascent and proves BORGORE’s most ambitious effort yet. “Kiss My Lips”—a monstrous collaboration with Dev, the dance-music siren behind hits for Far East Movement and David Guetta—is already spawning dancefloor mayhem. The EP also includes three versions of the title track: a pounding dubstep version; a hip-hop flavored take influenced by the “trap music” of Waka Flocka Flame and Lex Luger which prove BORGORE’s hardest, raunchiest beats yet; and a version remixed by Document One. BORGORE’s propulsive, interactive live shows have turned him into one of electronic music’s most popular, controversial figures. His trademark combination of bass-in-your- face frenzy and pole-dancer grinding typically climaxes with a cavalcade of bare breasts onstage and him crowd surfing over furious mosh pits; expect this latest jaunt to be BORGORE’s most wild escapade yet.

DATSIK Tuesday, March 20 at Mansion Wednesday, March 21 at VIRAM @ EVE Friday, March 23 at FSOB at MEKKA Saturday, March 24 at Ultra Music Festival at Bayfront Park Saturday, March 24 at EVE www.datsik.ca www.facebook.com/djdatsik www.twitter.com/datisk www.soundcloud.com/datsik www.myspace.com/djdatsik www.deadmeattour.com www.dimmakrecs.com www.msopr.com/n/client-roster/datsik One of the hottest names in dubstep today, DATSIK has teamed with Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak Records for his debut artist album VITAMIN D. Set for release on April 10, just before his appearance at Coachella, it will feature his freshest instrumentals and collaborations with the likes of Jonathan Davis of KORN, Infected Mushroom and Z-Trip. The album’s latest single, “Evilution,” out now exclusively on iTunes with release at all other retailers March 13, features Korn frontman Jonathan Davis, along with Israeli psy-trance duo Infected Mushroom. The album’s first offering, “Fully Blown” with fellow Canadian artist rapper Snak The Ripper, is available now. DATSIK (Troy Beetles) has been taking the dubstep scene by storm, blowing up dance floors around the globe with his original style of hip-hop, future-tech bangers. In 2011, DATSIK was one of the featured artists on the inaugural IDentity Tour, the first-ever touring electronic-ONLY music festival that visited major outdoor amphitheatres throughout North America, and supported KORN on their “Path Of Totality” tour as well as produced selections on their hard rock-and-dubstep-fusing The Path Of Totality album. In addition, he was also one of the headlining dubstep acts at this year’s Stereosonic festival in Australia. With multiple anthems under his belt, countless plays from some of the biggest DJs and an endless perseverance to reach that next step, it’s safe to say that DATSIK has proven himself to be one of the best dubstep artists around. DESTRUCTO Thursday, March 22 Hard Miami at Grand Central www.djdestructo.com www.soundcloud.com/destructohard www.facebook.com/destructohard www.youtube.com/destructohard www.myspace.com/destructohard www.hardfest.com www.holyship.com www.nirtrusrecords.com www.msopr.com/n/client-roster/hard-festivals Los Angeles producer and DJ DESTRUCTO has cultivated an incendiary live set that merges heavy metal bombast and propulsive, potent techno. It's unlike anything out there, and he takes it into the studio for TECHNOLOGY, his five-song debut EP due out April 9 on Boys Noize’s emerging talent brand BNR TRAX. Just check out “LA Funky” (as featured in the epic HOLY SHIP! short film) right now on www.holyship.com. Like its namesake, the track seamlessly melds the techno sounds of Detroit, Chicago, Berlin and Ibiza into one perfect year-round dance party. The EP’s title track, “Technology” is the calling card of DESTRUCTO’s globe-trotting live performances and drawing on the groove/build/explode dynamic he developed in his national tours with Crystal Castles and Rusko, it's no wonder “Technology” has been in heavy rotation on Sirius XM and found its way into Boys Noize’s and A-Trak's festival sets.
