With his recent remix of Kaskade’s ‘Dynasty’ landing safely in the hands of Ryan himself, Glow resident Roberto Gonzalez is steadily climbing the ladder to fame well beyond our DC EDM community. Roberto’s music library is disgustingly huge and well equipped for throwing an amazing party. His knowledge of the DC crowd and what we like is unparalleled.
From contest winner to regular opening duties, Rez-E is jogging down the path most local acts dream about. He has opened for Wolfgang Gartner and Avicii, headlined with Des McMahon, is slotted for future opening sets and on December 4 will be spinning along side Glow resident Roberto Gonzalez. It’s not often local acts have such wild followings, but rest assured, every time Rez-E takes the decks his network is out in full force, going absolutely wild… and for good reason!!
Bio
Roberto started spinning as a hobby that was quickly turned into something that he loves. He has had a life long love of all types of music, but his true love is in Electronic music. His interest was first sparked by attending club events, especially GLOW, introducing him to all the different forms of electronic dance music. Through the years he has experimented with all styles, until he found his true passion; Progressive/Trance.
In 2003, he was granted his big break into the local DC scene, by holding down a residency for CitySonic’s monthly parties located in the Attic at HOME nightclub (now called ULTRA BAR). In 2004, he began to create his own productions with the help of his friend Eric Jao (DJ Enferno). Since then Roberto has been working along side Pete Moutso, Music Director and DJ of GLOW (www.clubglow.com) for the past Five years. Pete has been a big help in mentoring Roberto and has benefited a great deal, which shows in his DJ sets. In 2007, Roberto made a series of mixes called Images, which help spread his name within DC. The series help people get an idea of what they can expect from Roberto’s dj sets.
Today Roberto has established himself as one of the guys to watch out for within the local scene of DC. Currently he is working a productions and collaborating along with his brother Javier and Casey Keyworth (Breakfast) of Flashover Recordings on new productions. The one thing he always shoots for is to be able to share great music and vibe at any of his shows with the crowd.
Funky, crazy & wild. These are only but a few words used to describe a dance floor during a set by DC’s Rezilly. Born in America with Iranian blood flowing through his veins, Rezilly has always been obsessed with dance music since he was a kid.
He began DJing parties at the age of 14 and has been producing since he was 18. As years have passed he’s began to make quite a name for himself by opening for artists such as Wale, Jason Derulo, Wolfgang Gartner & Dieselboy. He’s also played in a number of clubs in the DC area including Lima, Midtown, Current, Eyebar & Club 24. In May 2010 Rez-E graduated from JMU with degrees in Justice Studies, Spanish, and Music Industry. After gaining his newfound knowledge as well as experience from college, Rez-E is ready to take on the industry one mix at a time.

David Guetta did it!! House music is popular because it deserves to be, not because major record labels and top 40 radio stations tell us so. Thanks to David, people could in theory mention Ferry Corsten, Sven Vath, Flo-Rida and Akon in the same sentence. Imagine 5 years from now, the # 1 MTV (USA) video might belong to Mat Zo, Swedish House Mafia or Sander K. None of it would have happened without David Guetta and his sexy french house. To be honest, it’s already happening. ‘Club Can’t Handle Me’ is currently #9 on the Billboard Hot 100!
The last time Guetta spun Glow he nearly blew the roof off Fur Nightclub. And hey, with Will.i.Am on opening duties, did you expect anything less? A special Thursday night, 21+ performance; This event will undoubtedly sell out, so get your tickets now!! DAVID GUETTA IS COMING BACK TO DC!!!! WOOO HOOOOOO!!!!! (sorry, it’s hard to contain the excitement)
Bio
As an internationally respected artist/producer/remixer/DJ, DAVID GUETTA’s track record has been impeccable for nearly two decades. Now, in 2010, his career is reaching new peaks: “When Love Takes Over” featuring the lead vocal of multi-platinum pop-R&B songstress Kelly Rowland, took off as a world-wide smash, posting its first national 1 charting in the U.K.; he is also the track producer of Black Eyed Peas’ rousing new 1 single, “I Gotta Feeling,” in whose video clip he makes a cameo appearance. And Guetta’s fourth studio album, ONE LOVE, released August 25th on Astralwerks, is an ambitious, ingeniously crafted album that sets forth nothing less than a bold and beautiful manifesto for the global pop and dance audience. Witness, for example, the phenomenal success of current radio smash-hit “Sexy Bitch” (a.k.a. Sexy Chick) feat. Akon.
“Making this record with so many talented artists was such an amazing experience and the end result is an album infused with all the best flavors of contemporary pop music that will appeal to such a broad audience both on and off the dancefloor,” noted Guetta.
Significantly, it was Guetta’s own defining and assured musical viewpoint as a DJ and producer that attracted the A-listers who make ONE LOVE one of 2009’s most diverse and star-studded album projects. Kelly Rowland, for example, moved to tears at first hearing the instrumental work-in-progress that became “When Love Takes Over” on the dance floor at Guetta’s famed F*** Me I’m Famous party in Cannes, greeted him in the DJ booth, and was later given the track to write to. will.i.am, similarly, had first approached Guetta to contribute to a club-inspired album planned by Black Eyed Peas (the just-released Energy Never Dies) – and their collaboration snowballed to include two tracks on ONE LOVE: the out-of-control “I Wanna Go Crazy,” and “On the Dancefloor,” joined by apl.de.ap, a fresh evocation of the hip-hop/house fusions of the late 1980s.
Throughout the agenda-setting ONE LOVE, Guetta serves up a body-rocking, all-embracing blend of hip-hop, soul and electro – an audacious fusion that’s been sorely missed ever since rap and dance audiences became polarized at the turn of the 1990s. With a global following of nearly five million celebrants at over 200 DJ performances just last year attesting to his musical authority, it’s no wonder that Guetta has emerged as a catalyst and a curator of an exciting new musical hybrid, his magical producer’s touch bringing out the best in all his collaborators — even as accomplished a hook-meister as Akon, who sings the album track “Sexy Bitch.”
A rare dance album spotlighting its vocalists as well as its beats — each singer cast flawlessly in tracks tailored to their individual qualities — every one of ONE LOVE’s vocal collaborations is marked by arresting hooks, inventive musical development, and compelling humanistic messages. Notable among the guests who leave true personal stamps on each song is Chris Willis, the longtime lead vocal collaborator with whom Guetta has shared no less than seven top 10 chartings around Europe, who lends his larger-than-life, testifying vocals to the funky house of “Gettin’ Over” and “Sound of Letting Go.” Recent Grammy winner Estelle imbues the title track with a rich, luminous emotional grace; and Kelly Rowland turns in another vibrant and melodic lead vocal in “It’s the Way You Love Me” worthy of the most stirring of Donna Summer’s dance anthems.
Breakout stars Kid Cudi (“Memories”) and Novel (“Missing You”) also share surprisingly personal stories in a dance format; and, rounding out an album full of high points, Wynter, fresh off a worldwide hit with Flo Rida (“Sugar”), stars in the erotically charged “Toy Friend”.
DAVID GUETTA’s name is synonymous with the world’s greatest house and dance music, and with the parties that bring that music to life. Since releasing his first pioneering single “Up 1 Way” in his native Paris, France in 1992, David Guetta has sold over 2 million albums worldwide and over 3.2 million singles. He has been France’s No. 1 club DJ for a decade, and was named the world’s No. 1 House DJ in 2008. Attesting to his global appeal, Guetta is also a bona-fide YouTube star, holding the record for “most watched” of any artist in the electronic music genre with over 32 million views of his 2007 classic “Love Is Gone”.
In Europe, Guetta has previously released three chart-topping albums (Just a Little More Love, 2002; Guetta Blaster, 2004; Pop Life, 2007). Guetta and his wife Cathy are also famed for staging the mega-sized dance parties, F*** Me I’m Famous, for tens of thousands of house, electro, and dance-loving fans from Ibiza to Miami, New York, London, Barcelona and Paris. They have released four best-selling compilation packages of the same name.

Kaskade is one of the very few EDM DJs who cannot be pigeonholed into any one genre. He spins a little trancey, a little housey, a little progressive, appeals to a mainstream audience and maintains the respect of everyone. Kaskade is pure electronic dance music.
He’s known to the mainstream for his unique ability to turn pop music into electronic dance hits. He has reworked, remixed and breathed new life into tracks by Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Keri Hilson, Lady Gaga and Beyonce, Nelly Furtado, and Pussycat Dolls.
His ‘Dynasty’ album tour essentially started in DC. It was released within days of him playing to a sellout Glow @ Fur crowd. There’s no question Kaskade brings purely positive vibes to the club. Easily one of our favorites. He is currently on your promoting his latest mix compilation entitled “The Grand.”
Bio
KASKADE is one of electronic music’s most sought-after emissaries and one of its most beloved figures. Unaffected and laidback, he’s known per BlackBook magazine as “…the man [who] gets his sh*t done with an unassuming demeanor, and usually in flip flops.” Otherwise known as Ryan Raddon, the San Francisco-based electronic artist continues the ongoing march to his special brand of beat, a style that is instantly recognizable both musically and technically.
On March 24, he will continue his musical progression and follow-up last year’s chart topping long player Strobelite Seduction with a new mix album titled THE GRAND (Ultra Records). KASKADE explains, “The Grand references the overall sound of the mix. I wanted to capture the essence of the big room sound that I play but demonstrate that this sound can still have heart and soul. This is the kind of music I enjoy creating and love to play in clubs around the world.” The album features a various assortment of original productions and remixes by KASKADE as well as Deadmau5, Misha Daniels, Jes, Steve Angello & Sebastian Ingrosso, Dirty Vegas and others.
“I tried to make the mix represent what someone would hear if they came and saw me at a show. A lot of my own songs and remixes mashed together with music that I love to spin,” KASKADE continues. “I have always looked at the mix tape as an aural blog of sorts…a snapshot in musical time. Something that should be fun to listen to now but when it is pulled out years from now will be just as sweet and accompanied with flood of memories too.”
KASKADE has spent close to every night for the last year entertaining fans on dance floors around the world. Since June 2008, he’s been on the road with an astounding tour schedule that covered over 12 countries, heavily promoting the release of his highly acclaimed and chart-topping fifth artist album, Strobelite Seduction. This spring he’ll set out again on his ‘The Grand Tour’ in support of his new offering where he’ll make stops at SXSW, the Ultra Music Festival during WMC in Miami and many of the best North American clubs including Los Angeles’ Vanguard, New York City’s Webster Hall, Chicago’s Smart Bar and more.
When KASKADE is not playing a show or on a plane traveling to one he is busy in the studio. Recently he has been working on expanding his remixogrophy with new projects that have landed him on top of the charts both in the US and UK for adding his touch to tracks such as Empire of the Sun “Walking On A Dream,” Britney Spears “Womanizer” and LeAnn Rimes “What I Can Not Change.” Yet it is not his remixing that has gained him legions of fans around the world, as the Associated Press’ Ron Harris remarked last year, “…he doesn’t need the extra star power to demand global dancefloor respect and a good long listen.”
