Ryan Halifax ( Vertikal Records # Germany )
Ryan Halifax is without doubt one of the most exciting up and coming Dj's and producers.
His first track came out on Tasu and since this time he is surfing perfectly on this big wave called uk progressive.
Ryan has been playing on home territory for years. With the age of 17 began his Dj´ing career in 1990.
The up & coming acid-house-scene played a big role in his music tastes influencing him to go on and concentrate his skills to only electronic music.
From 1995-1997 he handled the import department UK and USA for an dance music distribution, before he changed to Superfly Records to run their backoffice labelactivities with 2 of them topping Top 10 in Germany and one in the U.K. (Nalin & Kane, Moguai, Phil Fuldner) .
Until the end of 1999 you could catch him for 2 years on a weekly 4 hour Friday night show called "Area Code" on Germany´s evosonic radio, witch has been transmitted all over Europe by Astra Satellite and witch was Germany´s only choice for non stop electronic music.
From the end of 1999-2001 he handles the distribution department of worldofsound.com AG - a digital music distribution and mailorder shop.
On top of a growing Djing schedule Ryan has also been busy with productions and remixes.
His Djing has taken him all over Europe as well as to Thailand or Japan.
This month his 8th CD compilation was released on Millennium Records.
The mix demonstrates the versatility and vision of Ryan Halifax both as a Dj and a lover of dance music, venturing from the sexy, dirty funk of the UK deep house scene through to the tougher, darker scapes of the progressive underground.
Two new 12" singels are comig soon on german based label earregular records and on Hardy Heller´s On-A-Mission Records.
He has already had releases on labels such as Plastik Park (GER), Tatsu (GER), Spiral Trax(SW), Dance N´Dust (ISR),
ManiacIQ (JP), Millennium (UK) or Plusquam Records (GER).
"In a market situation which is rather grim than happy, we call this a success and are more than happy to present you the next volume. "Don't fix what's not broken" is our motto and again it is Tatsu recordings Flagship Ryan Halifax who compiled and mixed this baby!
Again, Ryan seems to pick the tunes which makes the people tick!"
