More so than any other job in the music industry, a DJ is the main man rocking the party and making the crowd goes wild. And that is exactly what happens when
“DJ H- the U.K’s Finest” walks on to his centre-stage platform, and spins his records to mix some funky beats. The crowd going hyper on the dance floor is an amazing sight, and DJ H never fails to give a performance that is any less than pure brilliant.
H is intimately familiar with various types of music, and plays an essential blend of neat urban flavas on the rocks with a slice of desi. His highly developed and unique style of dj skills has enabled him to grow from strength to strength in this tough and competitive industry. H, being an intelligent and deliberate man, has worked incredibly hard to have acquired the title “Dj H- the U.K’s Finest”, and he has exactly what it takes to ride down the road to riches.
Taking all this into account DJ H has decided that it is time for him to deliver his input into the music industry by introducing ‘The Debut’.
DJ H’s album The Debut is due to be launched on 14th September  2005 with the formidable Untouchables Records label.  The album is one of the most eagerly awaited as it stems on the back of great production and great vocals.

The phenomenal music styles incorporated in this album using influential urban beats with that big slice of DESI. This has created a uplifting style for all music ears.


SONU NIGAM

SONU NIGAM PROFILE

Taken from www.mtvindia.com

Singing since the age of 3, Sonu Nigam has over 10,000 songs under his belt! No Hindi film soundtrack is complete without Sonu’s name in the credits. He’s gone from singer to show host, Indian Idol judge and even played a lead actor in a Bollywood movie. If there’s anyone who can be called India’s answer to an international pop star, it’s Sonu Nigam.

Born in Faridabad, Haryana on 30th July, Sonu grew up and spent most of his childhood in New Delhi. Inspired by his father, the popular singer Agam Nigam, Sonu made his first public performance at age 3 when he sang Mohammed Rafi's “Kya Hua Tera Waada”. As a child artist he played parts in movies like Betaab and Kaamchor. At 18 Sonu, made his first awkward steps by singing a song for the movie Aaja Meri Jaan, but the floodgates and stardom only came his way after the super hit "Achcha Sila Diya Tune Mere Pyar Ka” from the film Bewafa Sanam. Soon after, Sonu enjoyed consistent hits from “Sandese Aate Hain” (Border) to “Tumse Milke” (Main Hoon Naa)

These days Sonu is pretty much the voice behind every leading hero from Shah Rukh Khan to Salman Khan. He is among the few playback singers to release indi-pop albums that enjoy reasonable success in the nascent pop album market. Some of his albums include Kismat, Mausam, Deewana, Yaad and Jaan. The recently released Chanda Ki Doli has also fared well and continues to top the charts.

The versatile dude has also recently acted in movies like Jaani Dushman, Kash Aap Humare Hote and Love in Nepal.

Sonu Nigam has won numerous industry awards including the coveted Filmfare trophy for ‘Best Male Playback Singer’ and was also nominated as MTV Youth Icon for the year 2005.

Already enjoying massive airplay from specialist radio DJs at BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra, Kiss 100FM, Club Asia, Sunrise & BBC Asian Network, Pasand is one of the hottest tracks on road, and has been banging out of every sound stage at this summers Melas.

The single is included on BROKE, the forthcoming debut album from Mentor

Drawing from Bhangra, Hip Hop, R&B, Dancehall, Arabic & Swahili music, his trademark sound is heavy on the dirty bass-lines with the emphasis on songwriting.

details) before airing on various video channels around the UK.
