Best known for:“’Squid Play’ with Blasterjaxx.”

Following his debut in the Top 100 DJs poll in 2022, German DJ and producer Cuebrick returns for the second year running — rising six places. Since breaking out in 2014 with the hit ‘Watch Out’ with The Disco Boys, which nabbed the top spot in the German Dance Charts for seven weeks, the evolving producer has released his proggy sounds on labels like Smash The House, Spinnin’ Records, Revealed Recordings, Enhanced Recordings, Ultra and Armada Music. On the cusp of summer this year, Cuebrick collaborated with rising star Isaac Palmer on ‘Higher’, fusing EDM flavours and catchy tech-house grooves — primed for festival season. Released on Maxximize (a sub-label of Spinnin’ Records), the track reached a vast audience, and rightly so.

2023 was a busy year for Cuebrick. Milestone moments include his UK debut at Creamfields, touring China and helming a summer residency at Noa Beach Club in Zrce, Croatia. Additionally, he played packed-out club shows in Wave in Taipei, House Manila, Warp in Tokyo and many more. When he’s not touring or holed up in the studio, find Cuebrick on bigFM’s nitroX show, aka the most prominent radio platform for electronic music in Germany, for all things big room, prog and beyond.

Le Shuuk

From: Stuttgart, Germany

DJ style:“Hard dance / electro / hardstyle / techno / EDM.”

Best known for: “The tracks ‘Sandmann’, ‘Toast Hawaii’ and ‘Konje’, as well as being a resident and face of WORLD CLUB DOME Festival.”

A mainstay of the electronic scene for almost 20 years now, Stuttgart native Le Shuuk is no stranger to the rigours of touring. In the last 12 months, he decided to overhaul his lifestyle, committing to exercising regularly and abstaining from drinking during his shows. As a result, the DJ and producer, who is a favourite of the German festival circuit, says that he is having more fun on stage than ever. He credits these changes with allowing him to connect on a deeper level with his audiences, as well as redefine his career goals and look with renewed focus to the future.

The new healthy habits clearly agree with him. As well as recently performing at festivals and clubs across Europe, and holding his own Le Shuuk & Friends parties in his home city, he continues to build on the momentum of tracks like 2020’s peak-rave, German language tune ‘Sandmann’ and 2021’s hypnotic ‘Goodbye’ (featuring Xillions). This year he had another star turn with the explosive ‘Konje’, a collaboration with B-Stylezz that combined modern techno and EDM with the traditional elements of Bulgarian folk songs, with the track receiving big support from the likes of Armin van Buuren, Amelie Lens, and Joyhauser.
