When it comes to stand out dance music labels, the guy behind our latest mix has been making an impression on some of the biggest. Everything from Axwell's Axtone imprint, the illustrious Dutch imprint Spinnin' Records and Sebastian Ingrosso's Refune, Deniz Koyu has made his mark on them all.

The Turkish/German DJ was named EDM artist to watch back in 2012 by MTV, and he lived up to, and then surpassed his title. He counts everyone from David Guetta to Calvin Harris as his biggest fans and it was the legendary Fedde Le Grand that caught wind of Koyu's talents before snapping up his first productions. 

Since then he's cemented his prolific reputation with his instantly recognisable track 'Tung', colossal remixes, collaborations with the likes of Dirty South and a co-production with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike - to name just a few of his achievements. 

If the mix he's put together for us can't get you in the mood to party, we don't know what will. It's filled with pounding electro house and progressive tracks by the likes of Axwell and Ingrosso, Chuckie, Alesso and one of his own productions for good measure. 

Deniz Koyu will be playing at Manchester's Victoria Warehouse on Saturday 27th June alongside the chart topping duo DVBBS and D.O.D.
