MARTEN HØRGER-soundcloud.com/marten-horger
(SMASH HIFI, STAMINA)
Imagine Bassmusic, with an analogue soul, coming straight from the motherland of Electro.
Sounds good? Well, that´s Marten.
Over the last year Marten Hørger has been publically hailed as the bonified hero of the
Stanton Warriors, the Plump DJs and Krafty Kuts, and was slated to be the man to watch by
DJ Icey! These praises have been backed up with commissions to provide official remixes for
all three superstar acts. And all this while he´s in the studio with Leeroy Thornhill (the
Prodigy) to record an Album as SMASH HIFI)
Not being old enough to visit a club legally Marten kick-started his musical career at the age
of 15 with a residency at Douala, one of south Germanys most famous underground venues.
Since that tender age, Marten has spent years DJing alongside just about every major name
in Germany, as well as the international giants whom passed through the country. He
developed his unique and aptly titled, “I donʼt give a fuck”, blend of Breaks, Electro, Dubstep
and Hip Hop and ever since, heʼs been famous for celebrating every party like itʼs his last.
This reputation for being a party animal led to international bookings the world over - from
Brixton to Brisbane to Ibiza and Siberia; including four Australian tours, three North American
tours, and billings at major festivals and internationally renown institutions such as the Love
Parade, Fabric, Shambhala, Mayday, KaZantip, Streetparde, Tresor, Breakspoll, Nature One,
Notting Hill Carneval and many more.
In 2006, Boogie Army exploded onto the international scene with a plethora of outstanding
original and remixes releases on Labels like Westway Records, Carepack Rec, Ministry of
Sound and Genepoole Recordings. The most notable release was of course, “Sex, Drugs,
RockʼnʼRoll”, which became one of the Breakbeat anthems of 2007 and found place on just
about every mix to be compiled at the time.
In late 2008, Marten began SMASH HIFI - a new Tech, Electro and Breakbeat project with
the much famed, Leeroy Thornhill (formerly of the Prodigy)! Their debut single, "Everything
You Need", featured a world class music video. Since then, the boys have been busy in the
studio hammering out one remix after another, playing countless epic, four hour, marathon
DJ Sets across the globe and more recently, working on their debut album.
Apart from being a DJ, Producer, party connoisseur, and all-around-nice-guy, Marten runs
several monthly club nights in Germany and Austria including the infamous, “Stamina Club”,
which has just celebrated itʼs 10th anniversary, with its booking and artist management, side
arm, ”Stamina Agency”, responsible for bringing the worldʼs premier bass music artists to
Germany and Austria.
ICON-soundcloud.com/djicon
(OPULENT TEMPLE/ILLEVEN 11 RECORDINGS)
Without doubt, DJ ICON has become an iconic figure in the U.S. dance music industry and beyond. With a career spanning well over a decade, she has captivated audiences the world over with her signature bass-heavy vocal-infused cross-genre DJ sets consisting of Breaks, Electro House and Dubstep; not to mention her magnetic stage presence, skillful DJ mixes and productions on Illeven Eleven Recordings. It’s no wonder why she’s been dubbed one of the leading ladies of this domain.
Starting in 1996 at age 16, ICON diligently rose through the ranks of the San Francisco underground at a time when female DJs and promoters were few. In just a few years, her skills and growing reputation had already landed her numerous residencies in San Francisco, as well as a steady flow of multi-national bookings. ICON has also gained success in radio and television in addition to rocking dancefloors worldwide. Among her accolades are stellar reviews for her productions on Illeven Eleven Recordings, a spot in Shejay’s “Top 100 Female DJs”, being voted one of San Francisco’s best in the Nitevibe “Top 10 DJ Dreamteam” Poll, and also scoring a coveted sponsorship from Pioneer Pro DJ.
Throughout her career, ICON has regularly toured throughout the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe and Asia at world renowned clubs such as 1015 Folsom and Ruby Skye in San Francisco, Limelight in NYC, Fabric and Matter in London, and Avalon in LA; as well as massive events such as Coachella Music Festival, Ultra Music Festival, Burning Man and Fuel Festival in Singapore. ICON has shared stages with top tier artists such as Underworld, The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, Ladytron, Paul Oakenfold, Adam Freeland, Armand Van Helden, Deekline & Wizard, The Stanton Warriors, The Freestylers, Evil Nine, Elite Force, Uberzone, Bassbin Twins, DJ Icey, DJ Rap, Baby Anne and many more.
In addition to performing at events, ICON has also promoted many events in San Francisco and New York City over the years, most recently, her Weapon of Choice monthly featuring the best in local talent alongside internationally known Breakbeat and Electro House talent. This led to her popular Weapon of Choice DJ mix series that has accumulated over 20,000 downloads and thousands of plays on Soundcloud and Mixcloud. She is also an integral member of the first female DJ collective, Sister SF, and the longest running large-scale sound camp at Burning Man, Opulent Temple.
For many years, ICON dominated the radio waves with residencies and guest spots on a plethora of successful long-running dance music programs such as Thump Funk on XM, Boombox Mix Sessions on Sirius, Solid State on K-ROCK in NYC; IBreaks in the UK; and a myriad of shows in the San Francisco Bay Area, including House Nation on Wild 94.9 FM, Subsonic on Live 105, Zendada on Energy 92.7, and Future Breaks on KUSF. She has also made her way onto the small screen: In 2001, she was featured as one of twelve up-and-coming American DJs in “Disc Jockey,” a 12-part documentary series that aired on Showtime™ and ShoNext™. In 2004, she was the DJ on the internationally syndicated MTV™ series “The Wade Robson Project,” a dance competition hosted by the self-titled super choreographer.
ICON’s production endeavors have proven to be as exciting as her DJ career. Her first release on Illeven Eleven Records “Welcome To My Dancefloor”, a collaboration with Dustin Hulton featuring vocals by Nikki Carabello, had huge support by leading artists in the industry. It charted at #8 and #22 on the Beatport Breakbeat and Electro charts, also getting stellar reviews in Mixmag and Beatport top weekly picks. Her second release, “Wha?”, with studio partner Ground_Control, had equally stellar support and reviews; the Keith Mackenzie & DJ Fixx remix charted at #12 on Beatport. So what’s next for this powerhouse bass princess? More DJ ICON & Ground_Control originals and remixes as well as a promising slate of collaborations are in the works, as she continues to make her mark in the worldwide dance music industry. And if the last fourteen years have proven anything, 2012 will continue to bring big things from this driven and versatile performer.
