MICIMAGO
For Micimago, it all started with a very basic music-making software. His curiosity led to some experimentation which led to him getting into electronic dance music. Fast forward a few years, and you can easily distinguish his sound in any songs he works in. You’ll probably know him for his hit single ‘Place’ with Jolene Samhan and Shaun Axiaq, which made it to our Malta’s Top 10 list.
Apart from his original productions, he is also known for some remixes which he did for other artists. His bootleg for Ira Losco’s “Walk On Water” garnered 25,000 views on Youtube. He also released a remix for house legend Roland Clark alongside Kugene.
J JOY
Starting from his youth JJoy always had a love for music playing in school bands and organizing small parties for his friends. Within one year of getting his first decks, JJoy soon found himself spinning at a couple of local clubs and bars.
JJoy soon found himself on top line ups locally and worldwide with big names like Faithless,Snoop Dog,Flo-Rida,Hardwell, Dimtri Vegas&Like Mike, LMFAO,Rudemental, Afrojack, Rehab, Calvin Harris, La Roux, David Guetta and so many more.
When it comes to production, JJoy is definitely making a good name for himself blending in various elements of dance music finalizing a crisp sound, producing tracks like ‘Lovelife’, ‘Waterfall’ and ‘Love Hangover’.
DEBRII
At just 22-years-old, Daniel Briffa AKA Debrii is one of the island’s youngest, and most promising talents.
Youthful, vibrant and energetic, Debrii’s versatile DJ sets have distinguished him from many other local talents and have developed into a sound unlike any other.
