Oliver Stumm

Oliver Stumm is part of the NY based production and DJ duo named A Touch Of Class together with Domie Clausen. They founded A Touch Of Class Recordings in 1999 as a platform to release their own music material as well as help launch other acts. Oliver, born in Boston, USA, has a master's degree in Mathematics and Computer Science and is a classically trained musician. As a student in Switzerland he started DJing in '87 "to make some cash" and because he always loved music and the affect it has on people. He soon was lauded for his musical sensibility and talent and became somewhat a household name in Switzerland, organizing huge warehouse-style parties before he moved to New York City. In NY in the mid 90s, he started the label imprint Liquid Groove and worked under the alias H2O, creating club classics such as "Take Me higher", "Nobody's Business" and "You Can Run...". Oliver Stumm will open the first-ever Sensation in Switzerland.

Dirty South

Over the past 3 years, Grammy Nominated DJ/Producer Dirty South aka Dragan Roganovic has made an instant name for himself in the dance music industry, impressing the who’s who of international DJs, producers, media and music lovers with his uncanny ability to dish up ready-made dancefloor bombs. Born in Europe and moved to Australia when he was 13, Dragan’s thirst for music took a hold of him from a young age. When Dragan injected his trademark house groove into Evermore’s ‘It’s too Late’ rock hit in 2006, the entire dance music world stood up and took notice. Included on his self-titled EP of 2006 out through respected Australian imprint Vicious Vinyl, ‘It’s too Late’, topped dance charts worldwide and saw Dirty South nominated for a coveted ARIA award (Australian Recording Industry Association) - a stunning follow-up to the previous year’s nomination for his red-hot single ‘Sleazy’. With only a few short years under his belt in the international production scene, Dirty South’s potential to achieve tremendous musical heights seems limitless.

Fedde le Grand

Fedde le Grand stands on the edge of global superstardom. His parties had been rocking the Netherlands since 2001; and then in 2006 "Put your hands up for Detroit" happened. The track hit No 1 in the UK, Spain, Russia, Finland and Bulgaria; won Best Underground House Track and Best Breaks/Electro Track at the IMDA 2007, Club Banger Of The Year at the 6th Annual Club Awards in Miami 2008 and secured Fedde the fiercely fought over Best Breakthrough Solo Artist gong at the IMDA 2007. Since the early days his more stripped-down production has won him an elite group of fans, allowing him to experiment with his darker, more minimal tech-house side. Tracks like "Take No Shh", "Aah Yeah" and "Just Trippin”" have already done the business and 2009 kicks off with three more releases – "F1", "Amplified" and "Pink Bird" – that are destined to wow the filthier dance floors. Fedde is a Sensation resident, having a vast number of Sensation's under his belt.

Megamix

The time of the night when the DJ’s take a step back, and the people of Sensation become the stars. For thirty glorious minutes the music, performers and the environment fuse together to create a Sensation like no other. Created and perfected by the Sensation creative team in the years before the big night, the Megamix integrates sound and vision with stunning artistry.

Sebastian Ingrosso

It has been an ‘On the Road’ year for Sebastian Ingrosso, 2007 seeing him touring the world – after a slew of releases in 2005 and 2006, as well as the Swedish House Mafia take-over of the Miami scene and of Amnesia’s main stage in Ibiza. Sebastian, Sensation resident, has impressed the crowds at Sensation Chile on the 14th March and now will win over the audience in Switzerland immediately.

Tocadisco

With "Nobody Likes The Records That I Play" the entire world took notice of Tocadisco alias Roman Böer. He surely has to be considered as one of the top electronics acts around at the moment. Learning by doing is certainly this man’s motto, and within an extremely short period of time the studio wizard taught himself how to record and produce tracks, including his highly acclaimed album ‘Solo’, which featured hits such as Better Begin, Street Girls and Morumbi. But it is the interaction with the audience and the buzz of playing live that really gets Tocadisco excited, and he plans to bring this contagious enthusiasm to Switzerland.
