TICON:
www.ticonmusic.com
With a deep background in the technoscene they started playing around on their computer in 1995 and this step brought them along many paths they hadnt dreamed of. The experience aquired along the way has switched the scene from the amateur thing of the beginning to the standard of today; an acclaimed production with an exquisite feeling for sounds and percussion.
The project Ticon was started in 1999 as a natural progression towards something new and they soon got the attention deserved. Their unique style walks the thin line between progressive house and trance with crossover excursions on both sides. This gives their music a variation from the floorfilling to the hipswinging funky but they all emit the Ticon sound and the message to be happy and to be loosin it to the music.

FABIO & MOON:
www.facebook.com/fabioandmoon
Both being notorious for their excessive passion for party and a knack for the appropriate music, their joined forces represent a mighty double dose of up-to-date Progressive sound. So it’s no wonder that the gigs and releases of Fabio & Moon hit the nerve of the international dance floors from the very first moment.
It was around 2005. Fabio knew that there was some other DJ in his hometown Hamburg named Benni Moon - and Benni Moon knew that there was some other DJ in his hometown Hamburg named Fabio. When the two of them met each other on the way to a gig, they eventually made acquaintance. Also, they figured out that they were neighbours.
Next thing they figured out was that next door there was quite interesting music: Both already had a great background as musicians and thus a lot of experience. Since they got along very well with each other, they started DJing together. This venture turned out to be a very promising one when the dance floor went on fire during their first mutual gig in 2007. One year later, Fabio and Benni decided to take their musical relationship to the next level and moved to a shared apartment as well as a shared studio.
Their sound could be described as fresh, playful, vocal-orientated, minimal Progressive Trance with a lot of bouncy offbeat rhythms and a touch of Pop. Already their debut, the Disco Damage EP, reached a number 1 ranking in the charts of Beatport. The follow-up turned out to be even more successful- the Crazy Trip EP became a highly acclaimed hit. Also the next releases, including a collaboration with Interactive Noise, gained remarkable good feedbacks.
The bursting-with-energy live appearance of Fabio & Moon did the rounds within the international scene. Among numerous gigs at many big open air festivals in Europe, like Summer Never Ends, Waldfrieden Wonderland, VuuV or Psychedelic Circus, especially their set at Aurora Festival 2010 in Greece became a memorable event in terms of fresh’n’frisky Progressive pleasure.

MAPUSA MAPUSA:
www.facebook.com/thomas.johanshon
His interest in electronic music was awakend during the early 90's. Later. in 1993 Thomas aka Mapusa Mapusa visited the first psy-parties and was completely fascinated by the music. During 1995 he began buying vinyls.. and building a collection. Starting off with a pair of turntable imitations he was able to mix music. In early 1996 Thomas travelled to Goa / India, to still the growing curiosity he had for this country, its people and of course the music.
Immediately following the return to Europe he went to Ibiza for a few months. There and before in India he played initial dj sets and got completely thrilled. Returning to Germany, Occiasional booking convinced him to continue his new passion. Many thanks in this place to Ernst and Andrea, who layed the foundations. After meeting Fabio they began spinning as a team. 1999 and 2000 they had the huge honour of playing.. at the Voov Experience festival, as well for U-Site, Free Form etc. The interest n their dj sets grew well beyond Germany. Gigs in South Africa, Japan and Europe followed.
Later Fabio and Mapusa decided to go their own paths, because interests began to change. Then he met Daniel (Shiva Chandra) and they began producing regularly together. Quite fast they produced the first track together. 'Schaukelstuhl' became a big succes and really surprised them both. So the decicion to found the Auricular project was made, and a year later the first album 'Audion' was released Request from around the world increased. With appearances on all continents he began travelling. Never pausing performing as a dj, the task remains very enjoyable, with memorable sets in Cape Town, New York, Japan, Mexico and of course Europe.
After a while he started a new project Human Traffic with Stephan Wötanowski. The debut album is going to released in April 2007 on Blue Tunes Records. Another two projects is working pretty well now 'Johnson&Haske' and 'Fusi&Johnson' with cool releases on Sprout, Tribal Vision, Powder etc. and killer tracks will coming soon... check it out!!! Today he is 43 years old and can say that he's having as much fun as ever travelling the world and pleasing people with music and never would want to miss it.
