Biography:
Miss Nine has not only been able to outshine and make her presence known in such a world, but she has done so all within five years of picking up a record. With her eclectic taste in music, ranging from energetic grooves with plenty of vocals to a deeper, progressive sound, Miss Nine is sure to turn heads and move feet any where she performs.
Kristin Schrot began her career, not as a DJ, but as a model. At 16, she made it to the finals of one of the largest modeling pageants in Germany, and soon after secured a worldwide contract with Elite Model Management. Longing for more, her passion for music led Kristin to move to Amsterdam where she dubbed herself Miss Nine and began pursuing a career in the electronic industry.
Only a few months after touching the decks for the first time, she became a resident DJ at the locally legendary Motion parties where she evolved as an artist and DJ while playing alongside masters such as John Digweed, Dave Seaman, Nick Warren, and James Zabiela. In 2003 she began touring abroad and even made an appearance as the youngest artist at the 10th edition of Dance Valley.
Miss Nine is the first female to mix a compilation for Washington-based Yoshitoshi Recordings, the world-renowned leader in progressive and big-room house music. The highly anticipated Yoshitoshi Ibiza mixed by Miss Nine (YRCDLP15) was released in September 2006. Less than four months later the album reached the highest position at the iTunes Dance Album Chart in the USA: number 1! To continue this success Miss Nine released an album on the world famous Armada label: Dancefloor Sessions (ARMA134) in June 2008. Miss Nine is currently busy with mixing a second Yoshitoshi album.

Biography:
REDROCHE (pronounced RED-ROCK) is comprised of production duo and brothers, Antoine and Gio. Antoine showed interest in music at a fairly young age. His parents pushed him early on to study the violin but there was something that always attracted Antoine to pursue the drums. At the age of thirteen his parents agreed to let him purchase a five piece Pearl drum set and begin lessons. Within six months this youngster was turning the heads of many large bands in the area by entering in many “battle of the bands” and showing up to local jam hotspot to show off his talent. After high-school Antoine went to University leaving behind the dream of becoming a drummer in a band to focus on a degree in business. While at university he discovered a love for house music with the release of Daft Punk’s “Homework” and the ever popular “underground scene”.
“This really changed my life and opened my eyes to a whole new world. The more I listened to this album, the more I got into it and a new appreciation for music was growing inside. I started exploring house music and the underground scene at the time and I was instantly hooked for life”.
End of 2007, to the end of 2008 we see the demand for Redroche productions in full capacity. Completing some high profile remixes for such artists as ROBYN, LORRAINE, CARL KENNEDY vs M.Y.N.C. PROJECT, YOAV, ALANIS MORISETTE, KUSH, ADDICTIVE FT. T2, GABRIEL & DRESDEN, ERIC MORILLO, OLAV BASOSKI, DENNIS THE MENACE & BIG WORLD, DON DIABLO, EDX to name but a few out of the twenty or more remixes in one year’s time is truly an amazing feet. To say that Redroche is in-demand at the moment would be an understatement. Finding time to release another single on the every popular JOIA records called “Family” and his current hit on Eyezcream Recordings called “Give You More” which is being championed by the likes of AXWELL, Eric Morillo, The D.O.N.S., EDX, Chris Lake and countless others.
If you are going to bet on anything in 2009, bet that you will see Redroche finally break into the scene as an artist and a DJ. With a storm of more high profile remixes, DJ performances, more original material being created and working towards his first artist album means that 2009 is going to be an interesting year to say the least! Stay Tuned.

Biography:
Genius can be measured in a number of ways: ability, originality and accomplishment. In Michael’s short career he has managed to touch on every cornerstone, leaving proof of his musical competence at producing big room, progressive and tech-house tracks, along with a discernible motivation to better the quality of music being distributed. This has not gone unnoticed, with DJs like Pete Tong jumping at the chance to document Michael's rise, featuring him on shows such as Radio 1’s 15 minutes of Fame.
From Argentinean & Guyanese decent, he was born and raised in Hackney London which he still calls home running his studio from there.
Diffused Music has become his major priority since he founded the label in September 2008. Using it as a platform from which to promulgate his perfected sound, the label has released numerous acclaimed records: Yemba, Dropzone and the Envolver EP. As Michael’s career continues to escalate he has lined up countless events to build on his current success, touring with Deadmau5, setting a number of UK based gigs and also earning a coveted residency spot at one of the most sought after places in the clubbing realm, Cream’s Amnesia in Ibiza. Along with Mark Knights Toolroom Knights events and Pete Tongs Wonderland, the Woods fan base and clientele continues to sky rocket. It is apparent that this is not the height of his creativity, but rather a preview into what assuredly will be an illustrious career.
