Dj Ken-Guru featuring Olzu
Dj Ken-guru ja Olzu (Olli Tuomainen) make their first big appearance at a club
at B-eat-z club. The dynamic duo was founded in march 2003 when the guys sat
down to think how they could liven up Dj Ken-Guru's dj-set.
It took a few test rehearsals and brainstorms to find the perfect harmony
within the deepest of house and banged up techno mixed up with live
saxophone/flute... not forgetting other instruments.
"In a live situation, we aim to go with the flow... trying to sense the vibes
from the dancefloor." - Dj Ken-Guru.

Dj Teemu P
DJ Teemu P started DJing in the mid 90's after a decade of just
listening to electronic music in its different forms. In the beginning
his style consisted mostly of US house music, but as the time passed new
styles of electronic music started to appear in his sets. Different
forms of house as well as techno. His mixing style is at the same time
crowd friendly and challenging. DJ needs to entertain and educate, but
first and foremost to enjoy the music himself.
The love of different
styles of music that has soul and funk has taken over even though house
music is still the dominant form. In 2002 he was voted the second best
DJ in Northern Finland by the readers of the Nordic Techno Forum.

Dj M
Dj M (Maciej Makowiecki) first got bitten by an electronic music bug in mid
90's after hearing Orbital's Snivilisation album at some friends' homeparty.
His record bag started filling up with goodies and as a natural extension to
his record collecting, he started organizing parties... on hobby basis that is.
At those days he was heavily influenced by the likes of artists like LTJ Bukem,
Big Bud, Seba, Dj Krush and legendary Curtis Mayfield. His latest source of
inspiration comes from reggae/dancehall sounds and his very own music project.
Expect to hear from that session later this year.
According to Mr M himself, his sets consist mainly of drum'n'bass and other
interesting broken beats, and he says he aims to read the punters' minds on the
dancefloor in order make the right kinda connection with the party possé.
