ELECTRONIC MUSIC
RESIDENTS
SILVERJ
He has been present in the club's nightlife for many years, experienced many clubs, some in Slovenia and abroad, where he played either as a guest or resident DJ. He is the founder of the HouseFeel brand, OG, and co-founder of the zYpper brand, for which he has been working intensively in the last few years. He is the editor of radio show zYpper eXclusive on Fantasy Radio, a multitasking personality, an entrepreneur, and experienced organizer of events and logistics expert. Music, marketing and also visual communication, signing contracts and graphic design are just some features of the wide range of his expertise.
He looks forward to several future projects and implementing them step by step. He is an ardent advocate for healthy lifestyle, healthy mind and body, an active athlete, and a proponent for life without illicit substances. When we ask him about music, we quickly realize that electronic music is his home, joy, and relaxation at the same time. He gives special emphasis to the real house sound that some call "classic", consisting of melody, good bass line, groove, and vocals. That is why his sets are a mix of carefully selected sounds that represent freshness in contemporary club’s music. He also believes that music can convey a certain message to the audience, bringing about euphoric excitement and emotions through melody and vocals. His knowledge of music and his feeling for the audience consequently resulted in him diving into music production. His first piece “World hold on” was released in its original form on the “Choon” platform and represents all that he is, thinks, and feels. Recently, he further polished the piece and perfected it into an even better version, together with his friend Dino DZ. Its background story appears to be a psychological novel that opens our eyes, spirit, and promotes a different way of thinking.
PODGY
An eminence of nightlife and entertainment that has been present in club life for almost two decades. He is one of the few DJs who still spin on turntables and is consequently a keen fan of gramophone records, which he regularly adds to his collection. He says that melody is the most important thing in music, so he plays an extremely `full` house, be it vocal, deep, tech, tribal, pumpin`, or progressive.
He followed his style since he was young, for he comes from a family where virtually everyone, his father, brother, and sister are musicians. He first worked as a DJ in 1999, joining the group PartyHouse DJs. He then went to the faculty in Maribor, where he began to gain new experience in the club ŠTUK. Very early on he felt love for gramophone records and bought his first gramophone. He borrowed a few records, rehearsed for a few months and turned himself into what he is still today - a true lover of house music on good old vinyl records. Soon he also stepped into organization, where he knew how to create a story that the audience would love. He is a co-founder of the zYpper story, to which he contributed mostly in the initial phase, when it was most important Today, he is a proud dad and participates as often as he can.
KLEMENZ
DJ, producer, editor, and host of the weekly show After Dark with Klemenz on London's Soundwave Radio. Already in the '90s, he connected with clubhouse music and to this day he has played his specific sound, which is intertwined with soulful, disco, deep tech, and afro house. First, he started with a simple mixing desk and two cassette players at private parties. Today he is a guest in clubs, at festivals and, not long ago, he was on tour in the Republic of South Africa.
After quite a few years of working behind the mixing desk, the time has come for him to dive into music production as well. He started with the hits of bootleg tracks, followed by the production of famous remixes, one of them being released on a compilation by the French label “Disco Balls.” Until recently, he was the editor and host of After Dark with Klemenz on London's Soundwave Radio under the auspices of the largest and most famous afro house radio station Drums Radio from the UK. There, he hosts the weekly live show fAfreeka with kLEMENZ˝ and the Saturday show on West Side FM from Johannesburg called Do it for radio heads. His love for music and Afro style is invaluable and closely connected with the zYpper project. We invite him regularly to participate as an artist, for his style fits perfectly into the concept of zYpper.
