Dirty Vegas
Dirty Vegas is a Grammy Award-winning British house music trio made up of Ben Harris, Paul Harris, and Steve Smith. The group formed in 2001, then broke up in 2005, and reformed in 2008 to record new material. The keynote of their four year run was the track ‘As Days Go By’, which went top 20 in the UK, garnering Dirty Vegas international levels of acclaim. In April 2011, Dirty Vegas released ELECTRIC LOVE, and fans of electronic music around the world were exposed to the slick new stylings of a Dirty Vegas sound that continued to push the limits of electro-pop, balancing house beats with guitar-led melodies that blend influences from Daft Punk to British 80’s new wave.

Classixx
Classixx is an American production and DJ duo, based in Los Angeles, composed of Michael David and Tyler Blake. They were previously known as Young Americans.

Classixx began to define a new sound for the Los Angeles EDM scene.
