DJ KAMA-Dj Kama's interest in music started in very early ages as a lover , hooked on to the good old Walkman for hours. This love for music started to became something more sinister
and turned into an obsession after attending few raves in Goa, India . In his uni days in Edinburgh , he took part in a charity dj competition and won 3 place [ total participants 5 ;-)]
. which made pushed him to pursue his obsession. Moving to Manchester , the city that gave world, The Hacienda was the way forward for Kama. Finished dj course in SSR to cut short the
learning process , where he meet dj Tone, Awesome guy and a crazy scratching dj. Kama Dj-ed in Tuition and Wobble. Both are fantastic nights and is creating a fabulous scene for hard-dance in Manchester.
Kama , along with is mates Abbs , Tone and Lee has got together to create a wicked hard dance events in Manchester . We are Xposeddjs together , we wanna use this excellent opportunity to
get ourselves exposed as well as give budding dj's a good chance to perform live.
Currently Dj Kama Plays Techno, hard trance, tech trance, hard house and hard electro in his sets. His fusion sets are influenced by primarily Dave Clarke, Carl cox, Daft punk, Prodigy , Proteus, Pvd, Adam M etc. Kama's Wildest dreams would be playing along sided with these dj gods , he would give his best bits of his body to just play along with them. Kama hopes to play all over the world , but his top 3
places would be
1.)playing in Brighton beach watching the sun go down and come up in front for 1000's of revellers.
2.)playing in Eilean Donan Castle, seductively placed on the banks of Loch Duich in Scotland. Ya I know that's why I called it Kama's wild dreams. But imagine giging in this castle . Hmm Nice ...
3.)Playing in The Top club of all times , FABRIC.
Lets hope and support Kama and his boys hard work and dreams come true.

DJ TONE-
Hi there my name is tony, i love most styles of music but when im dj'ing il either play hard-trance, hard-house(bouncy) hard-core or maybe sometimes some pumping electro. I bought my first pair of decks when i was 16 and iv been hooked ever since. In my teenage years i was massively into buying mixtapes from 2 clubnights named uprising and dizstruxshon and these are the main reason for me wanting to get into dj'ing. I used to daydream about maybe one day playing at these events in front of 1000's of ravers.
My favourite dj has to be dj m-zone, its down to him that i wanted to get into dj'ing. The style of music he used to play when i was a teenager was hard-euro-trance, and he used to run a record label named uk44 records. I must have nearly every tune that m-zone had produced back then and there are some absolute belters. after m-zone my influences are dj kenny sharp, topgroove and every mc thats a resident at uprising or dizstruxshon. I am also massive into skratching as i am a big fan of hip-hop (where skratching originated from) and i always use skratching in my hard dance sets. This is a skill i am proud of and its taken me a long time to get to the level i am at now. A friend of mine named chengy who was my tutor at a music production school in manchester tought me some of my skratching techniques so i must mention him as an influence too.
Iv been mixing now for 10 years and im a resident at one of my local hard dance events in my area called raw2thebone. Iv played at just about every local venue in my area as well as the 2 main nightclubs there. The highlight of all these has to be when we secured 2 events for a nightclub called kikos. This is a 600 capacity club and we put on a good show, its probably my greatest acheivement yet in my dj'ing career.
I am now also involved in an up and coming hard dance event based in manchester called xposed, there are four of us involved and i really think that with the drive and determination needed we can make this a huge event in manchester. I know the 3 dj's il be working with well and when the oppurtunity arose to work with them i jumped at the chance. We all know what it takes to get ahead in this industry and we are all talented and ready to get xposed

DJ ABBS-
Hey Peeps .I have been playing trance, hard dance for a long time. It all started off when I first started going to cream fields and homelands, and it then became my passion. Playing music to crowds at house parties, private gigs and later playing in few bars and clubs in London. I see myself as someone who likes to mix it up a bit, mixing old tunes with new. My passion really lies in making dance music and coming up with new challenges every time. I am currently involved in launching a new night with few friends in Manchester called “Xposed”. We all are hope full that Xposed would play a big part in shaping up Manchester hard dance scene.
