EJ
EJ is the resident DJ for the global entertainment brand and race championship, Formula E, as well as one of the freshest talents with white-hot releases on Garuda that have burst him onto the scene with his euphoric, melodic take on house and trance.
Touring the world and performing at some of the most exciting venues and parties on the planet, EJ plays hi-octane sets at Ibiza clubs, worldwide festivals including ULTRA Europe, and during each Formula E race to trackside fans. Beaming into regular TV audiences of over 200 million, the last few years have turned out to be one hell of a ride for this multi-talented DJ and producer as he embarks on the fifth season of Formula E. Most recently, he made history by being the first DJ in Saudi Arabia to play to a dancing crowd of both men and women, showcasing that music can unite in even the most conservative climates and different cultures.
Drawing inspiration from titans of the scene and the long withstanding Garuda to which he calls home, his euphoric, melodic progressive house and trance sets create the backdrop for an incredible spectacle, building a global following as EJ tours from city to city. His vision was to infuse his performances with the same thrills of watching live sporting events for a truly immersive experience and keeping this ethos at his core is what makes EJ one of the most exciting acts around.
Don’t be fooled though. With a string of successful singles, including ‘One More Night’, ‘Fire In Your Heart’, ‘Ignition’, ‘No More Chances’ and ‘Slipstream’, receiving huge support from the likes of Oliver Heldens, Thomas Gold, Benny Benassi, Credric Gervais and Sander Van Doorn, EJ was picked up by the heralded Garuda – an imprint he now calls home – and is currently zooming ahead with a wealth of new material. His most recent single ‘Follow Me’ has already been featured by Armin van Buuren on his widely acclaimed radio show A State Of Trance and his forthcoming release ‘Formula E The Soundtrack – Mixed By EJ’, is due for release in February, highlighting various pockets across the genre with seamless mixing that he will see him run rings around any opposition.
EJ is more than an artist but a worldwide phenomenon. We only know with this talent, a global entertainment brand as his platform, and plenty more music on the way, this rising superstar shows no signs of slowing down and is set to rapidly climb from strength to strength across 2019.
