Back in the day, when ABBA were happening,
Sweden was the "capital of pop music", but now
it is becoming the center of the club sound and
Axwell is undeniably the man behind the buzz.
He is part of the collective known as the Swedish
House Mafia, the team of five popular house DJs
and producers, Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso,
Eric Prydz, and Henrik B andAxwell. This young
producer from Stockholm, has been delivering a string of massive hits and countless remixes for
the big names such as Madonna, Moby, Roger Sanchez, Usher and even the Average White Band
over the last couple of years but the catchy house tune 'Feel The Vibe' led him to the glamorous
Ibiza scene. He describes himself as "native of house music" and he actually knows what great house
beats are . That might be the secret of being a regular of the DJ Mag's top 100 DJs. Together with
Axwell, the producer of Cyber Japan, the oldest club website in Japan, Mitomi Tokoto and the rising
star from Osaka house scene Masahi Osaku will be supporting on the night. It is getting cold out
there, so come and feel the warmth of pure house music.

Berlin-based Philly techno DJ and producer Jay Haze is making
his first trip to Osaka. Mr. Haze has a unique background; after
having a few years of a relaxing, roaming life, he became a glass
sculptor and glass blower, and then moved to the techno city
Berlin in early part of this decade to pursue his passion for
electronic music. A number of renowned German labels like
Cocoon, Get Physical and Playhouse loved his productions and
it didn't take long to get featured on the various mix CDs of
techno legends, Richie Hawtin, Sven Vath, Miss Kittin and so
on. He owns the labels TuningSpork, Contexterrior, Junion,
FutureDub, and Textone and is also the producer behind the
acts bearback, the Architedt, the Dub Surgeon and Funkpony,
the newest project with Samin - Wow, such a talented guy!
If you are tired of the hyped minimal sound in the techno scene,
this one is a must. You can expect techno with funk, soul and
even underground hip-hop.
