With his release in collaboration with the World’s No.1 DJ, Armin van Buuren ‘Going Wrong’ still going strong in the charts around the world, DJ Shah takes the next step with his first solo album ‘Song book’. DJ Shah, averaging 12 productions a year (regularly caned by Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten and Above & Beyond et all), he’s one of Europe’s most prolific and highlyregarded trance producers. Shah (real name Roger-Pierre Shah) first flexed his production muscles back in 1999, putting out tracks like ‘The Mission’, ‘Claps’ & ‘Tides of Time’. In 2003 his track ‘High’ was inked by UK Virgin Records sub-label Nebula. Since then he has signed his productions across trance heavyweights including Anjunabeats, Vandit, Blackhole & Armada/A State of Trance. His last outing – the Adrina Thorpe vocalled ‘Who Will Find Me’ – prompted Armin van Buuren to proclaim it as his ‘favourite track of 2007′! His remix credit-roll reads like a veritable ‘who’s who’ of Electronic Dance Music. Shah has reworked tracks for legendary vocalists like Sarah McLachlan and Nadia Ali. He’s also remixed tunes for a litany of trance-masters including (take a deep breath!) Tiësto, Armin Van Buuren, Mark Norman, York, Cosmic Gate, Josh Gabriel, Johan Gielen, System F, The Thrillseekers, Solarstone, Three Drives, Matt Darey & Oceanlab. Alongside his DJ Shah moniker, Roger has also produced under a slew of sun-tipped pseudonyms, including High Noon at Salinas, Magic Island, Savannah and Sunlounger. It was under the latter that he released the ‘Another Day on The Terrace’ album in 2007, which shot to No.1 on Dutch iTunes’ ‘all-musicgenres’ chart. The Album also spawned two hugely-received singles: ‘In & Out’ & ‘White Sand’. ‘Going Wrong’, his collaboration with Armin van Buuren entered the Dutch single chart on a slamming No. 5 in the first week, right after he performed the single live as well on Armin van Buuren`s Solo concert in front of a crowd of 16,000! Though probably known first as a producer, the ‘DJ’ in Shah’s name is far from just a natty tag. Roger has taken his innovative, Balearically-edged sets and live performances as far a field as the USA, China, Greece, Spain, Thailand, France, the UK, Hungary, Turkey, El Salvador & The Netherlands.Adding further to the ever – mushrooming Shah empire, Roger works on a huge brand called “Magic Island – music for balearic people” with the label “Magic Island Records” (just signed a label deal with Armada) and a new radio show also with the name “Magic Island”. Together with Pedro del Mar he still produces the top – rated “Mellomania” monthly shows all around the globe. (Armada Music)
