BIOGRAPHY
Ny bio tekst
The Norwegian DJ and producer Mikkas, better known as Djuma Soundsystem, has for more than two decades made a top of the line, mind-bending, genre-busting underground music. No one listening to House Music in the past 15 years has been able to miss the modern classic “Les Djinns.” Since then he has toured the world many times over, with a particular highlight being when he DJ’ed the last hour counting down to midnight on New Year’s Eve 2009, to almost one million people gathered at Baha Beach in Rio De Janeiro. One would think Mikkas could take a moment to relax every now and again, but this is one restless soul that refuses to slow down. Instead, he continues to travel the world to spread his gospel of meaningful, organic, afro-inspired club music to appreciating crowds.
His latest tracks have been released on Crosstown Rebels, Chapter 24, SOSO, Kittball, Sol Selectas, and Get Physical. In 2018 Djuma Soundsystem’s remix of Robosonic’s “Drowning” refused to leave Beatport’s top 20, and the recent Djuma Soundsystem & Westerby Remix of Tube & Berger’s “Fetzen” on ZEHN, made an equally grand impression with its deep afro-tinged grooves and uber-solid genre-crossing production, ultimately reaching the #1 spot on Beatport’s Afro chart. Nowhere will the current sound of Djuma Soundsystem be better documented than on the forthcoming “Full Body Workout”-compilation on Get Physical’s label, which is now complete. A long time in the pipeline, and as a real labor of love, the mix is heavily influenced by the sounds of Africa, which has always played a big part of Djuma Soundystem’s DJ sets.
The Djuma Soundsystem installment of Full Body Workout features brand-new tracks and collaborations as well as a multitude of brand new remixes of new and classic Djuma Soundsystem tracks, all selected personally by Mikkas himself. Both his musical and sonic standards are incredibly high, both as a DJ and as a producer. If it doesn’t sound just right, in any way, it won’t be played. Instead, it’s quality all the way, and you can hear that. His sound is definitely underground, but as well as making a sweaty basement club heave, he can make any festival crowd go mad with his irresistible mix of spaced out Deep House, lush, warm melodic techno, and deep percussive afro. After many years of playing clubs and festivals all over the world, the beautiful sounds of Djuma Soundsystem is coming soon to a dance floor near you. Stay tuned!

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text.
