BENNY BENASSI was born in Milan on 13 July 1967 under the sign of Cancer. He is 35 but claims to look 25. He lives in Reggio Emilia, a fine Italian town about 100km south of Milan, where the food is great and the Dance Music is even better. He works as a producer in collaboration with his cousin Alle Benassi, who has been a musician and arranger at Off Limits. After KMC feat Dhany, "Satisfaction", Benassi Bros, remix-projects, Benny Benassi presents The Biz, the album Phobia and lots, lots of other things it's time again for a new single: "I Am Not Drunk", the typical Benny Benassi sound but also surprisingly different, modern, catching, strong.


Verona is a pretty singer from the Czech Republic, where her first single "You Gotta Move On" was already a big hit. This summer Verona is back to "Stay With Me".






Bart Claessen is a man with two carreers. In 2001 he started under the name "Barthezz", and he started pretty well with his hit "On The Move" reaching top 10. Also "Infected" reached top 30 in the UK-charts.

In 2007 he returned, this time under his real name Bart Claessen. The singles "Persona Non Grata", "Playmo" and "When Morning Comes" got very good feedback on the dancefloor but didn't make it into the charts. Much better did his last single "First Light", it reached #1 (Dutch Fresh40 DJ chart - 2008/4) in Holland and was already in the charts in Sweden and Finland. Also the track is played in the setlist of people like Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren and Ti�sto.





Roy Gates At the start of his successful career as a DJ/producer, Roy Gates immediately had a Dancesmash on Radio 538. This debut single "How Deep" instantly had a high score on the hit lists and was on the play lists of many radio and tv/stations for weeks. After the hitsingles: "On my Way", "We Rock Together" and "Lose myself" it rapidly became obvious that his musical development was unstoppable. Besides many performances in his homeland and abroad, Roy spent many hours in the studios where he worked on many new productions. This all resulted in the single "Midnight Sun", which is the ultimate mix between Club Trance and Electro. Armin van Buuren already played the Divini & Warning Mix in his "A State of Trance" and Randy Katana, Ron van den Beuken and DJ Jean also do support the track. "Midnight Sun" is also Slam!FM playlisted, so the record couldn't have had a better start. Already DJ Jean refers to Roy as "The New Tiesto"!

This summer Roy is filling the dance-floors again with his latest single "The World Is Spinning".






Matt Pincer From an early age Matt Pincer had a love for music. He collected all kinds of music on cd and vinyl, from rock to dance. In the 90s electronic dance music became his real love, especially trance music. Influenced by people like Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Rank 1 and DuMonde he wanted to make this kind of music music too.

So in the Summer of 2003 he started producing, and his first track Wave Of Emotion almost immediately got the attention of Swiss DJ Dave 202, who had this track in his personal top 10 on his website. This inspired Matt Pincer to go on and in the years to come he produced several tracks and remixes. He didn't send many tracks to music labels, because first he wanted to improve his producing skills.

In 2004 he got a weekly show Sonic Fantasy on Spiderpower Webradio where he played 2 hours of the best in trance. In this show he played some of his own productions once in a while and got massive positive feedback to his productions. In 2005 and 2006 he also did several podcasts for EDMCast, a website with podcasts including only unsigned music. The Matt Pincer podcasts were very popular, unfortunately the website stopped in 2007 with this very unique concept.

In 2007 Matt produced some of his best tracks and remixes and labels started to show interest in his tracks. He did 2 remixes for Lisaya VS Petersen - Embracing Sunlight, and especially the Matt Pincer Seashore Remix got very positive feedback and was added to the remix package which is available as digital download on all major musicdownload shops. His remix also was supposed to be on the compilation Trance Club, mixed by Torsten Stenzel, but something went wrong so the track didn't make it to the cd. But all music shops still have the remix listed in the tracklist, Cd 1 , track 12.

2008 was the year where more Matt Pincer releases saw the light. First of all there was "Memories" on Dutch label Made2Dance. The track got very positive feedback and was played by various DJs. Right after that the Matt Pincer remix for DJ Jerom and Michael de Kooker's "Body Combat" on Dutch label Bitter Sweet was a huge success with plays by famous DJs like Michael Splint and Dave Pearce on BBC1 and very positive reviews (see: Crystal Clouds review). More tracks followed, like "Rebirth" on Made2Dance and "Train To Nowhere" on Bitter Sweet under his Soyana Project alias.







Dj Jurgen grew up in Delft, where he started to experiment with music and became a radio jock on CITY radio The Hague. In 1985 he became a regular dj at a dutch public radio station, wich gave him his credits in the radio industry.

By the end of the 80ties he became by accident in contact with house music, and got drawn to the music. From there on he became a regular dj known in the amsterdam scene and all around. Amongst places like the HOUR POWER(escape) and ASTA (The Hague).

Around 1994/95 he started to get into producing, and his first release SHAKRA'S FEELINGS was a regular on many compilation cd's. then in 1998 he made the big score with his number 1 record BETTER OF ALONE. This made him a well known dj all over the world. Television performances and travelling throughout countries like JAPAN, HAWAII, DUBAI, SOUTH AFRICA, USA, and many more...

For now JURGEN is busy to put his mind more on producing,but he still moves on to get people in a trance with his vibes






Remini project Sarah K. alias Ester Olaide Ajewole was born in Paris in May 1979. In 1988 the whole family moved to West Africa. This change was not easy for Sarah and she decided to write down all her fears, thoughts and visions as poetry, which became a permanent ingredient in her life. She participated in song contests and in 1999 won a competition in a club in Rimini. Scandinavia, alias Anna Louise Molander, was born in 1974 in Hudiksvall in the north of Sweden. Her mother was a singing teacher and played the piano and she encouraged all her children to sing and play. Once she replaced a friend in a Swedish music groupand from that moment she could no longer resist the lure of the stage. It was natural for her to do the choreography. Maybe it was some whim of fate but Scandinavia was in the jury in Rimini. Sammy B, alias Samuel Oladipo Ajewole was born in Paris in December 1997 and yes, he is the older brother of Sara K. His parents thought that with his deep voice he could never become a singer. But singing and dancing still was his biggest hobby. He worked as a dressman all over europe and one day followed his sister Sarah K to a contest in Rimini.

Members

The group's core members include Michael Richters (dj/co-producer), John Agesilas (mc), Leroy Rey (dj), Chocolate Brown (dj) and Ro Achterberg (producer/techie), assisted by their friends and family, and everyone who supports their Real House Music.

Currently

Their first release "The Sound Is Yours" is already getting massive support from industry icons like Ron Carroll, Kerri Chandler, Josh Milan (Blaze), DJ Spen, K-Alexi and Dutch heroes like Benny Rodrigues and Ryan Marciano. The music video was shot in one of Amsterdam's hottest clubs Jimmy Woo's and can be seen on YouTube (see below). Its release is expected early on in 2008. Alongside their three original mixes, this club banger features remixes by house music legends Ron Carroll and Kerri Chandler!

Live performances

RSS are proud resident deejays of "Room 6" at Jimmy Woo (Amsterdam) (catch them every last Saturday), "Soulheaven" at Panama (Amsterdam), "El Barrio" at Paradiso (Amsterdam) and Club M (Breda).
