Shortly after (June 2009), "Sunshine" debuted via Talabot's own label Hivern.

The Potbelleez

"The fastest rising stars of the dance scene" – Tim Duggan (Rolling Stone) When freakish talent is mixed with fate, there’s no telling what can happen. Dishing up breathtaking DJ sets over 6 dex, touring the world and producing the duuuurtiest damn house music your ears have ever heard, the Potbelleez have a sixth sense for what makes the dancefloor swoon. Many would say it was destiny. Dave Goode and Jonny Sonic – both Irishmen looking for a new start in the Antipodes – left their homeland in 2001/2 respectively.

Fantastic Man

The work of both Mic Newman and Fantastic Man reveal a raw talent to spread across a number of genres. Hailing from Melbourne, Australia and a family of musicians, his focus on electronic music has gained star status in his home country, where he, along with a new breed of local artists have put Australia firmly on the house radar, with an ever-expanding scene developing. Key releases and remixes on major players in Europe have meant the transition to the international audience has been equally impressive.
