Janelle Monáe is an experience. She’s a charismatic singer, songwriter, producer, and performer. Her ground-breaking style crosses musical genres in a captivating postmodern merging of soul, funk, and rock ‘n’ roll.
Janelle’s 2007 debut EP, Metropolis Suits 1 of IV: The Chase was critically acclaimed when her second single Many Moons came in at #47 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008. The video aired on You Tube on September 27, 2008, and received over 13,000 views in 48 hours. Many Moons was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Urban/Alternative Performance.
Monáe’s first single Tightrope from the stunning 2nd album ‘The Archandroid’ sees her team up with Big Boi (Outkast). The lush orchestration mixes with elements of musical theater, funk and the dirty south to create a truly unique sound. At one moment, Monáe's voice takes on the metallic trill of Shirley Bassey, the next she's an ethereal siren, followed by a bluesy soothsayer.
The album is a conceptual album that tells the story of a female android named Cindy Mayweather. It’s filled with pop action, orchestral suspense and soul drama.
Remixes come courtesy of Paul Harris, Organized Noize & Australia's own Hook N Sling & Goodwill.
“Ms. Monáe has one of the most enchanting voices of our generation” – Andre 3000.
“Janelle is fire! Whoever got this girl… she is going to blow up!” – Missy Elliott.

Neon are very proud to drop Beside U - the first collaboration between the Melbourne-based duo producer Fabian Gray & vocalist Emanuele Mamo.
Over the past few years Fabian has been making a mark for himself due to his perfectionist approach, cutting-edge creativity and versatility to continuously produce an array of crowd captivating sounds that has seen him obliterate dancefloors with his live performances and work in the studio alongside artists like Ron Carroll, Camille Jones, Inaya Day, Tom Novy & Mobin Master.
Emanuele has the advantage of coming from a cultured musical background with experience extending from vocals, song writing and creative aptitude for various instruments (including piano & guitar) that has paved his way for a swift transition and almost immediate success as one half of this dynamic duo.
On Beside U, Fabian and Emanuele have created what is best described as ‘big mainroom house’ at its finest. Full of euro-influenced synths, uplifting chord progressions, epic builds & drops and a highly enchanting vocal, the record has been known to induce goose bumps when played at full volume. Featuring a massive remix from Denzal Park and more on the way, Beside U is generating quite the buzz internationally testing well with the heavyweights in Ibiza & being signed by top labels worldwide.
Get ready for a floorfiller of epic proportions!
From one of Sweden's hottest up and coming acts, Neon is proud to present Adrian Lux's 'Teenage Crime'. The mega package includes not one but two mixes from Swedish House Mafia member and super producer Axwell, one of which is a remode alongside fellow swede Henrik B.

Adrian Lux is a new name to many though one who has found fans via the blogosphere with his unmistakably Swedish tracks such as ‘Strawberry’ & ‘Can’t Sleep’ but with ‘Teenage Crime’ Adrian is poised to win legions of new fans both in clubs and on the radio.
The full package includes an extended version of Adrian’s Original, a Radio Edit, an Instrumental, the Axwell Remix and the Axwell & Henrik B Remode .

Zoë Badwi's debut single 'Release Me' is now somewhat of a club classic after it reigned over the #1 spot on the ARIA Club Chart for 7 weeks and was nominated for both ARIA & APRA Awards last year. The record was a huge international hit being picked up by labels throughout Europe, USA, Canada, Brazil and South Africa and a year on, is still being spun by some of the biggest names in the business, which is testament to the huge international appeal of Melbourne-based Zoë. The Freemasons, who over the years have worked with the likes of Beyonce, Kylie Minogue, Kelly Rowland, Shakira & Eurythmics were recently quoted as saying "We still play 'Release Me' every week, it was our fav track of last year...we love Zoë!"
Since 'Release Me', Zoë has clocked up some serious frequent flyers points playing gigs from as far as London to Beijing, Mykonos to Sao Paulo and all across Australia seducing audiences with her infectious energy, unforgettable performances & bubbly charm.
Jump to 2010 and Zoë is back with her biggest release yet. Freefallin' is a certified dancefloor-filling stomper with 100% crossover potential that clearly demonstrates she has the vocal pipes & charisma to be a major international star. Currently sitting at number 9 in the Australian Club Chart and steadily rising to the top 'Freefallin' has already been picked up by labels across the globe from Big Beat/Atlantic in the U.S to One More Tune/Atlantic in the UK, as well as Benelux and Gas across Europe.
Fusing classic club beats courtesy of Australia's own Denzal Park (who have topped the ARIA Club Chart twice already in 2010) with an incredibly powerful, heady vocal, 'Freefallin' is both bright and uplifting packing a punch from the very first listen.
As with 'Release Me', It's a given that the record will resonate throughout clubland with top-notch remixes courtesy of Moto Blanco (Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey, Rihanna, George Michael, Jennifer Lopes) & TV ROCK but what lifts 'Freefallin' into a triumphant pop moment is Zoë's emotionally charged vocal performance and positive, life-affirming lyrics that will breeze their way into your heart.
Whilst Zoë sings of liberating yourself from heartbreak and leaving the past behind, the anthemic piano-laden backing pushes the track into a fantastic singalong chorus. This is celebratory dancefloor magic, tinged with the inspiration of stepping out into the unknown and loving every minute of it!

Following on from the overwhelming international success of their last record In The Air, which has topped charts worldwide, been spun by all of club music’s royalty and dubbed by many as “the club anthem of 2010”, the TV ROCK boys are back with Elevated, their massive new collaboration with London-based songstress Tara McDonald.
Tara is no stranger to success having already paired-up with legends like David Guetta on his record Delirious, Axwell on Feel The Vibe, Armand van Helden on My My My and Todd Terry on Get Down to name but a few and after recently signing a deal with prolific label Hed Kandi, is currently penning tracks with the likes of Joey Negro, Sidney Samson, Laidback Luke & Afrojack.
After hooking up whilst Tara was touring Australia over the New Years period, the trio hit the studio and the result is this out and out house anthem that was previewed at the Miami Winter Music Conference earlier this year to rave reviews including a #28 debut on the official DMC Miami WMC Buzz Chart.
German superstars Dabruck & Klein and French duo Klosman & Wild (fresh from remixing new ones for Bob Sinclar & Akon) provide the first of many stunning remixes with more to come in the following weeks.
Elevated marks the start of what will be another huge year for TV ROCK with a slate of singles set for later in the 2010 including collaborations & remixes for none other than Tiësto, Calvin Harris, Afrojack, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Rudy.

Following the huge success of their Aria Club Chart #1, the cross-over disco smash 'Filter Freak', the Denzal Park boys Kam Denny and Paul Zala deliver this epic piece of dance floor devastation, the first in a line of club weapons set to destroy floors across the globe.
Denzal Park have already had a Beatport number one with their massive re-rub / booty of CeCe Peniston's 'Finally' last year. The track was picked up by Lady Gaga and used to open her concerts on her recent Australian tour.
Their latest piece _Ascension_ is a no-holds barred bass driven romper, with epic house melodies and soaring synth lines that drop into the deepest of bass.
‘Run’ is the stunning debut release from Melbourne’s Jason Rooney (aka JRJ) and vocalist Rebecca Lockhart.
Meeting by chance at Melbourne’s long running club night OneLove, Jason & Rebecca instantly hit if off and within no time were in the studio together working on an array of what have been described as edgy & infectious commercial and more niche records that they guarantee will “make you wanna shake”
Both Jason & Rebecca come from strong musical backgrounds; Jason started out playing classical guitar from age 8, which he now uses as my primary basis when writing dance music and in recent years moved into live audio engineering and production managing working at Melbourne’s renowned Prince Bandroom. His gig at the Bandroom has seen him to rubbing shoulders with the likes of Scissor Sisters, Lupe Fiasco, The Pretenders, Feist, Erick Morillo, Deadmau5 & Axwell to name a few.
Rebecca started singing almost before she could talk wowing judges at Eisteddfods & Talent Quests since the age 11 and playing leads in musicals like Grease, Fame, Annie, Chicago & West Side Story. After graduating high school, Rebecca scored the role of Frida in an ABBA tribute show which saw her travelling all over the world performing in the intense 2 hour stage show.
"Run" was initially created as a guitar loop by Jason and grew from there with the basic melody and arrangement coming together one Saturday afternoon. Getting Rebecca to lay down a vocal for "Run" was never initially planed but once Jason had her singing there was now way he could consider another voice he would rather have on the record. The result is a beautiful marriage between Rebecca’s haunting and melodic vocal style and Jason’s deep and driving production laden with lush classical guitar.
The man behind this slice of unashamed old school house music whoopee is veteran producer Dino Lenny and he’s not joking with the name he’s festooned upon this topical Jacko-homaging follow-up to 2007’s “Minimal DJs Have Small Decks”.
Dino takes us back to 88 with classic Todd Terry influences as a voice intones ‘Michael Jackson… Michael Jackson’, some late 80s rave-chords up the ante, topped with Six Million Dollar Man-derived ‘We can rebuild him, we have the technology’ declaration. Gallops along with old school drum programming, all set to stand out from the pack and undoubtedly stoke some mayhem.
Local heroes Mind Electric, Chardy and The Hump Day Project keep the quirky old school groove alive whilst making this more accessible to dancefloors across the country.
TechNero is the love child of Australian rock legend Jason Singh and Onelove favourite Todd Watson. The pair, after last year's 'The World As You Know It' have again joined forces for this life-affirming anthem that has dancefloors singing along from the first play.
The track has recently been smashing clubs worldwide and has just been picked up by Atlantic Records in the US.
TV ROCK & Luke Chable turn in an epic synth laden remix that will blow the roof off and up-and-comers Bobby Vena, Oxford Hustlers and JRJ all deliver equally exceptional mainroom progressive monsters.
Some tracks just get better with time. First surfacing in 2007 as ‘Feels Like Home’ which went on to become an international club monster, Meck was subsequently contacted by Madonna no less to help her use 'Feels Like Home' in a mashup with her classic ‘Like A Prayer’ in the summer 2008.
Which featured heavily on her 'Sticky & Sweet' tour.
Following unprecedented demand Meck and Dino now bring you the track that caused such a stir with a host of top notch remixes from man of the moment Michael Woods, Dutch master Rene Amesz & acclaimed tech / trance producer Bart Claessen.
With his interpretation already receiving massive support from Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1, Michael Woods means business with his remix, building subtle tension with short drops and big FX rises before slamming back in with the beats & driving bass line, taking you to the break down then unleashing an unashamedly euphoric riff pattern that will make you reminisce back to the good old days of House music.
The mix is very high in intensity and will blow the roof off any party the world over! Rene Amesz returns to Toolroom with his trademark Dutch sound, piercing synth stabs layered over crisp chugging beats making very good use of the vocal line ‘Feel’s Like Home’, before that recognizable riff bursts out of the speakers and takes hold of your senses. The track progresses with a big and bold bass line and variating percussion hits in the mix, this mix will stretch across many different playlists! Bart Claessen debuts on Toolroom with a booming tech-trance take of the original. His up-tempo rhythms are well crafted releasing awesomely uplifting waves of sound that will raise the hairs on the back of every neck in the club. As with the previous mixes he drops the euphoric riff pattern in the break but only teases us with it until the beats drop back in and he let’s go with that killer riff.
An energetic mix that will receive support from all the heavy hitters! There is a mix to suit everyone’s tastes as ‘Feels Like A Prayer’ is as diverse a package as ever.
Lady Gaga has been opening her shows with our very own Neon release "Finally' by Denzal Park!
Get a copy of Denzal Park's - Finally (Kam Denny & Paul Zala Remix) on iTunes!
Denzal Park takes #1 on the ARIA Club Chart for Filter Freak!
In the summer of 2009, Ian Carey told us all to Get Shaky, Sidney Samson was using profanities down by the Riverside and Kid Cudi & Crookers were busy tossing & turning through the Day N Nite…
In 2010, it’s The Golden Boys’ turn to let off some real frustration as they drop their sure-fire electro-pop anthem ‘Out To The Nation’.
Set to be one of the biggest commercial dance records of the season, ‘Out To The Nation’ carries a true party groove and a chorus that’ll have you hooked from the first listen. With it’s edgy vocal from 90’s reggae-pop star Michie One and infectious bassline courtesy of respected house producer Danny Dove, this has summer anthem written all over it!
Remixes come courtesy of Danny Dove, the Loose Cannons & New Zealand’s wonder kid Magik Johnson.
Check out the sassy lil’ video HERE!
Following on from her ARIA Top 30 debut single 'Release Me' which went on to become one of the biggest international singles of '09 making the Top Ten Singles Chart in 12 countries so far, Swedish sensation Agnes is back and about firmly cement herself as a major player in 2010 with the release of her second single 'I Need You Now'. This highly infectious dance-pop anthem continues to showcase the 21-year-old's incredible vocal talents and is already enjoying heavy radio & club rotation throughout Europe and over 1 million Youtube hits for the video clip so far. Check Out The video clip: HERE
The remix package has got just about every dancefloor covered with a smorgasbord of vocal & dub mixes to suit all tastes. Fresh from remixing Mariah Carey, Miley Cyrus & Cascada to name a few, Cahill do what they do best converting radio hits to slices of pure dance heaven. Also in there is Grant Nelson(widely regarded as one of the godfather of UK Garage) and Almighty who keep things on a soulful house tip whilst Australia's very own Alex K along with Ali Payami & Jens Kindervater (Real Booty Babes) turn the heat up with some killer hard-dance mixes.
Although relatively new to Australian audiences, Agnes has been enjoying massive success in Scandinavia for some time, with six Top Ten singles including the hit ‘Release Me’ (co-written by Agnes herself) as well as three hit albums in her home country. Her debut international album 'Dance Love Pop' was produced by Anders Hansson who has previously worked with prolific artists like Cher. Agnes started writing lyrics and singing at the age of five and has co-written half the songs on this album, which will come out in Australia in early March.
Also check out the new video Agnes recently shot for the launch of “Release Me” in the US.
Proving why they are one of the most exciting and versatile duo's in dance music today, Denzal Park kick off 2010 with a breakneck-funk bang inspired by the get-down-on-the-dancefloor tunes of early 80's. “Filter Freak” carries a true party groove that's bursting with hard-driving funk, retro synths, one hell of a fat bassline and dangerous amounts of cool that instantly evokes visions of teased hair-do's and thriller-esque choreography.
On the remix front, Denzal’s Kam Denny provides something a little more techy for the mainrooms & early mornings whilst DCUP's interpretation is laced with luscious disco-synths layered over a highly infectious, bouncing groove.
Energetic & life affirming, this record is a veritable, contagious boogie feast that's guaranteed to get all the freaks out on the floor… Set to be large!
Check out the awesome fan-made video here!

‘09 has been a busy year for Melbourne based Zoë Badwi. With 2 hit singles under her belt and another smash of a record on the way, Zoë can now add ARIA Award nominee to her growing list of achievements!
With Zoë’s third single, “In The Moment” just serviced to international tastemakers and being praised by the likes of Tom Novy, the Hed Kandi crew, Thomas Gold and Tom Findlay from Groove Armada, comes the news that Zoe will be walking the red carpet at the ARIAs. Zoe is a nominee in the BEST DANCE RELEASE OF THE YEAR category for her record “Release Me” which topped the ARIA Club Chart for 8 weeks earlier this year.
'Release Me' was Zoë's first solo record in which she teamed up with double ARIA award winning outfit TV ROCK who co-produced the track. 'Release Me' is an out and out anthem, and with strong vocals and massive hooks, it raced straight to #1 on the Aria Club Charts where it reigned for a staggering 8 weeks. In her biggest gig to date, Zoë was invited to perform the track at Sensation White Party in Melbourne on New Years Eve 2008 alongside Erick Morillo and 40,000 punters, footage of which can be seen in her amazing video.
In mid 2009, Zoë was busy promoting her 2nd club single “Don’t Wan’cha’ which again saw the TV ROCK lads behind the production desk and featured and impressive remix package including Ian Carey, MYNC Project & Taylor Square. The track shot into the top 10 of the ARIA Club Chart and is currently being championed by some of the globes hottest.
‘In the Moment’, which will be released in November debuted at #29 on the ARIA Club Chart and is up to #6…on its way to #1.
We wish Zoë all the best on the night!
With catchy hooks and addictive beats Agnes Carlsson, (better known as Agnes) is quickly making her mark in the music world, and this is only the beginning..

The record is already a certified success in the UK where it was automatically added to A-List rotation on the nation’s top radio networks leading to an impressive #3 debut in the UK Singles Chart. In the clubs it was a massive hit topping the UK Club Chart for 2 weeks and online reached #1 on the iTunes Singles Chart and has been in the top 30 ever since.
