Hello Boys & Girls!

It's again that special time of the year when you are supposed to pick up your most outrageous costumes and become part of Mayday madness. And what better way to do such thing as our stunning effort for your happiness, the Mayday Masquerade delivered for you by the Peter Pan of electronic Music: The Kiksu team!

We have special quest from Belgium and famous Black Hole records stable; Jonas Steur to bring you goods from the latest of those continental trance anthems with skills so pure you can almost taste it.

Our local dealer of euphoric layers Miika Kuisma joins D.N.A. to drop some "Vappu" mayhem for your pleasure from his magical collection.

Meanwhile downstairs legendary Dj Infekto is preparing his weapons to demolish the floor with the classic drum & bass hits (I'm not saying that it means those 97 sounds but it definately might!). As for his counterpart there will be the rising star, mr. Nuance, the superhero of Neuro! And to complete the task force there is also the feminine mistress of black vinyl: Zara and her bag of pounding little gems.

So put on your George Bush masks and Star Trek uniforms and let yourself go...



Kiksu Stage:

Jonas Steur (aka estuera) (Intuition / Black hole , Belgium) http://www.estuera.com/

Jonas Steur, born in 1982 in Belgium, (also known under his alias estuera) is already into music since he was very young. Influenced by his father's favorite 70's progressive rock with it's wealth of synthsounds and his mother's classical music Jonas got his taste for both beautifull melodic and rougher electronic music. After a lot of messing arround with cheap casio keyboards Jonas got his hands on a set of turntables when he was 15 and started discovering the world of vinyl too. The urge for making his own tracks got very strong resulting in a first record deal when he was 17. (Silvertear - so deep)


The next few years he kept improving his production skills and released a number of tracks in different styles ranging from hardhouse to a trance track for the succesfull Ian van dahl album 'ace' in 2002. End 2003 the alias 'estuera' emerged when the first estuera e.p. 'travels / 7 clouds ' got signed to Tiesto's black hole recordings. In a quick tempo some other releases followed in 2004 on different black hole sublabels like in 'trance we trust' and the big trance hit 'estuera - tales from the south' on tiesto's personal 'magik muzik' imprint.

Jonas also got in contact with Paul Moelands and Menno de Jong who were in the process of setting up their 'intuition' sublabel under fundamental recordings. In 2005 the first intuition release saw the light, 'Jonas Steur - Castamara / Silent waves' and got massive support by every top dj in the trance scene. Another big accomplishment was the collaboration between Paul Moelands and Jonas, ' Estuera vs Re:locate - Palma Solane ', wich got featured on the huge in search of sunrise 4 Tiesto mix cd and vinyl sampler. Thanks to all the attention for these tracks Jonas got the chance of doing a number of remixes for projects such as 'Haylon, Elles de Graaf, Solar stone, Fabb x, Re:locate, and more to come...

Jonas also started making a name in the dj business, playing gigs in Belgium, Holland, Germany and Poland in 2005. Including the first edition of tomorrowland Belgium and a couple of succesfull intuition events in club asta in the Hague, Netherlands.


2006 is almost there and looks like it is going to start good for Jonas with the release of the new Estuera ep, 'Flow / Moon sugar, (already on Tiesto and Armin's playlists to name a few) Some other nice projects and remixes are coming up and a couple of new gigs in Sweden, The Netherlands and Belgium are in the agenda already.

----NEWS FLASH----




Voit merkata vapun täyteen buukatuksi, sillä I Love KIKSU-tiimi räjäyttää tietoisuuteenne aivan holtittomat karkelot naamiaishengessä. Kuten viimeksikin, korostamme kiksukulttuurin iloisia ilmiöitä. Nyt soppaan lisätään vielä perinteisen juhlimisen parhaat puolet, ovathan naamiaiset sentään yksi klassisimmista tavoista pitää kunnon bileet. Ole keiju, ole mörkö, tule ja ole itsesi!

Club Volumen lattia käy ahtaaksi, kun reivaajamme saavat isällistä oppia suoraan belgiasta: vieraaksemme saapuu Jonas Steuer legendaariselta Black Hole-labelilta, luvassa tuoreinta mannermaan kädet - ilmaan - trancehehkutusta uskomattomalla kyvykkyydellä soitettuna. Jonaksen tuotanto on soinut mm. Armin van Buurenin toimesta, sekä Tiëston viimeisimmällä "In Search of Sunrise"- kokoelmalla, joten puhutaan kovan luokan tekijästä. Odotettavissa ehtaa stringien ja supersahan leikkiä suomen kuulaassa yössä!

Residenttimme D.N.A. käy kimppaan Miika Kuisman kanssa, yhteistuumin ystävämme aikovat loihtia lisää aivan odottamattomia taikoja levylaukuistaan! Uutta ja vanhaa sanattomaksi jättävässä suhteessa, kun taruolentomme valmistautuvat illan pääateriaa varten.


Alakerran valtaa Suomen junkkascene, joka tarjoilee energisintä Drum & Bassia uusien nousevien toivojen ja vanhan koulun konkareiden ottaessa toisistaan mittaa. Nuorta verta edustaa Nuance, jonka Neurofunk ei taatusti jätä ketään kylmäksi. Infekto aikoo vastata annoksella palvotuimpia ja klassisimpia raitoja koko setin edestä, tätä ei todellakaan kannata missata! Naisenergialla taistelun maustaa Zara, joka on kovaa vauhtia hakemassa asemaa Suomen lupaavimpana rumpubassodeejiinä.

Pakkaa siis bilemieli ja naamari laukkuusi ja suuntaa vappuna Volumeen, I Love KIKSU-tiimin hellään huomaan.
