Anjunabeats: Boom Jinx & Oliver Smith
A South Africa Event on 2016-05-07 22:00:00
Boom Jinx:
Hailing from Norway, Boom Jinx began writing music in 1989. After building a successful career in the commercial film/TV industry, he turned his attention to dance music in 2005, spending his off-hours exploring his new passion. Deftly managing his time, continued career success came with writing music for two of the biggest video game franchises; EA's Need for Speed and FIFA. His music was also licensed for two of the most popular TV shows in the world; CBS' CSI: Miami and CSI: Las Vegas. His work on dance music has been equally lauded, developing a well-deserved reputation amongst his peers for productions that showcase a stunning level of intricate detail and subtle nuances.
After being established as international DJ and recording artist in 2005, Boom Jinx's music has received support from industry heavyweights such as Armin Van Buuren, Tiesto, Paul van Dyk and Ferry Corsten as well as rave reviews from DJ Magazine and URB. Considering that his tracks have achieved top placement in European dance charts and received consistent play on worldwide radio shows (including numerous plays on BBC's Radio 1), it's clear that his music resonates with the masses as well. This rapport has led him to become a DJ with performances in Europe, North and South America, Asia and Africa, sharing event billing with the likes of Above & Beyond, Gareth Emery, Markus Schulz and Sander Van Doorn. With an epic 14-city USA tour opening for Above & Beyond under his belt and his highly anticipated album just released, Boom Jinx is set to explode on the global DJ scene.
Oliver Smith:
Oliver Smith has been described as "an excellent DJ" by Armin van Buuren, "the best thing to happen in trance" by Mixmag and "sensational" by DJ Magazine. In recent years the highly successful UK-based DJ and dance music producer has released scores of records and has performed in some of the biggest clubs in the world.
Oliver’s forward thinking music is regularly played by leading DJs such as Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, Tiesto, Myon & Shane54, and Paul van Dyk. He is one of the most established and best regarded Anjunabeats artists and is the only producer (other than label bosses Above & Beyond) to have featured on every single one of the 10 Anjunabeats Volume compilations to date. His sophisticated, deep and melodic sound is loved by fans globally. Oliver has also been highly successful with his remixes for the likes of Arty, Mat Zo, Andrew Bayer, Maor Levi and Above & Beyond – all featuring on leading radio and club play lists and flying high in the Beatport charts.
As a DJ, Oliver has played at legendary UK super clubs such as Ministry of Sound, Godskitchen, Matter, and Passion; and at far flung locations worldwide such as America, India and Singapore. He also regularly features on international radio shows and is a resident presenter of Anjunabeats Worldwide.
