Guy Hornsby

Guy’s fifteen-year love affair with house music has taken him on a winding path from a house music epiphany at university in Sheffield to London, through sub-genres, numerous fashion crimes and many of the country’s best-loved dancefloors. In the tenth year of his DJ career, the Londoner’s firmly settled on a blend of deep, groovy and techy house, always aimed at moving feet, not stroking chins, and has put needle to vinyl at almost every one of the capital’s major dancefloors. After ten years of promoting everywhere from SeOne to Heaven, he’s settled on the less suffocating surroundings of Shoreditch as one third of London night Dropout’s laid-back posse, bringing forward-thinking music to Saturday’s demanding hordes.

In 2009 he took in the sunny climes of Croatia ’s Petracane at the Airbound festival alongside London dates, and last year he played alongside Josh Wink and Christian Varela on Pioneer’s DJSounds Radio show on Ibiza’s Sonica. With a number of productions under his belt on Devore, Drag’n’Drop, L:Music and Landed, and in 2011 a remix and then the Capa’s Journey EP on emerging gem Sideways, it’s a production career that’s slowly gaining momentum and garnering him attention in the city he calls home. He’s the brains behind Dropout’s podcast, which approaches its second anniversary in early 2012. It is, as they say, a marathon, not a sprint.

Jamie Richards has covered a good deal of ground on his electronic odyssey so far – relocating to Leeds in his late teens and forming StefJam with partner in crime Stefan Lesik – Jamie rocked a plethora of dance floors throughout the city. Then, returning to the Capital as a resident at DropOut, a forward thinking party focusing on good sounds, good times and a no pretension mentality.

2009 was a frenetic and exciting year for Jamie, holding down a full time career, a residency and a number of guest sets at parties across London . Over the next twelve months Jamie has been tinkering in the studio, working on a smorgasbord of deep, warm, rhythmic house that is ready for a full dancefloor assault as summer edges into view.

Stef Lesik

From rocking the dancefloors at his home town in Cambridge at the age of 17, to holding down a number of residencies in Leeds and London , Stefan Lesik has continued to take on slots at some of the country’s most established venues.

Teaming up up with Jamie Richards in 2004 to form StefJam, the rumbunctious duo hit on a winning formula providing Leeds and beyond with a fresh and vibrant approach to house music. Now living in North London , Stefan is concentrating all his might on his new venture – Dropout – based in Shoreditch and is guaranteed to make a lasting impression…
