MindControl - Peter Bailey & Richie Santana:
"To control mind, body and soul through music" is what DJ/producers Peter Bailey & Richie Santana set out to do every time they perform, whether it's solo, or together as seamlessly as if they were one.
Named after their peak-hour Stereo Productions smash of the same name, the duo's Mind Control residency started in late 2006 at world-famous nightclub Pacha New York. The party takes a bit of a unique approach in the club world, letting the two DJs tag-team track-for-track as their set progresses.
"It allows us to really work off each other, and work off the crowd as well," says Bailey. "Sometimes Richie will play a song, and it will remind me or inspire me to throw up a track that I didn't even expect to play. It has a nice spontaneity to it, and the crowd really seems to appreciate that."
But don't think that the sets are disjointed. The crowds at Pacha wouldn't put up with anything but the best. It's almost like, as the name suggests, Bailey and Santana are working from the same brain, or at least the same control center.
But how can that be? The two are far from strangers. They've been one-upping each other since they were teenagers in Staten Island, N.Y., spending afternoons spinning hip-hop records in their rooms. Both had innate talent, and an insatiable hunger to learn more. Soon they were throwing their own parties, and cleaning up on Staten Island's mobile DJ circuit. One night they'd play a Sweet Sixteen; the next, they'd pack a nightclub.
Fast forward a few years, and the hip-hop heads are now deep into house, both spinning and making it. Remixes like Santana's white label version of the Eurhythmics' "Sweet Dreams" and Bailey's remix of Nelly Furtado's "Say it Right" have throbbed at clubs from Montreal to Ibiza. Together and alone, the two have collaborated with names like Victor Calderone, Chus & Ceballos, Carlos Fauvrelle, and DJ Vibe, just to name a few. And they still have a strong creative affiliation with Stereo Productions, one of the world's most renowned dance labels.
This year, they signed with Star 69 to release a mixed compilation based on their infamous Mind Control sets, and will hit the road on an international tour. The goal is to bring the Mind Control experience to every dancefloor across the world, giving all of you out there the chance to "Let The Beats Control Your Soul."
Sense - Ben Seagren & Dean Samaras:
Formed in 2001 by New York transplants Ben Seagren and Dean Samaras, SENSE has moved to the forefront of the San Francisco EDM scene with its unique progressive house sound. They wasted no time in making a name for themselves with featured sets at Ruby Skye, Supperclub, The End Up, 1015 Folsom, Paradise Lounge, Pacha New York and Nikki Beach Cabo San Lucas and many more… Soon they were sharing the stage with international talents such as Victor Calderone, DJ Boris, Richie Santana, Peter Bailey, Sandra Collins, Oscar G, Crystal Method, Ferry Corsten, Armin Van Buuren, Donald Glaude, Mark Farina and Marques Wyatt. With more than 25 years of combined DJ experience between the two, their sets push the limits of creativity with sampling, effects, and flawless mixing. Expect bigger things in 2007 from this dedicated duo with the addition of production and remix work.
