Hot off his second mix compilation album, a continuous US tour, remixes for M83 and Major Lazer (the latter peaking at #23 on the Billboard club charts), two Beatport Top 10 hits over the last year with his project Exostate, and a slew of upcoming releases in the pipelines, German-born, New York residing Georg Bissen has never been busier making his mark in the world of EDM. Bissen has created some of the biggest dancefloor smashers in the club scene in recent years, all while also designing sound presets for Ableton Live, Sample Logic and others, writing music for adverts for some of the world’s biggest brands, doing sound design and composing for major TV networks, and running his own music licensing, production and publishing business.

657 DJ Booking AgencyStorming the scene just over 5 years ago with the now classics “Exhale” and “Quicksand,” Bissen has, as a dance music artist and producer, had upwards of 60 original and remix releases since. These records have been released on some of the biggest, most desired and well-respected labels in the industry, including A State of Trance, Enhanced, Euphonic, Discover, Perfecto and Boxer. Always in pursuit of a fist-pumping, “all systems go” attitude, Bissen’s sound exhibits an effective blend of tough, energetic beats and grooves, coupled with extremely memorable, big melodic riffs and hooks–proper huge tunes for dancefloors, not armchairs, that have lasting impacts on clubgoers and DJs alike.

Bissen creates one club banger after another, from his remix of the Black Eyed Peas #1 song “I Gotta Feeling”, which was one of Ibiza’s summer anthems of 2009 and received extensive UK BBC Radio1 play, to 2011’s “2nite U R Perfect”, which was one of the year’s most memorable club songs, being featured on German and US FM radio, as well as on DMX, reaching millions of shoppers every day. Bissen also recently was one of 3 winners in the Club Space Miami Original Song contest, the track written and produced with frequent collaborator Victor Dinaire, Peter Finley and singer David Berkeley. The song, “Take Me To Space”, beat out over 300 other entries. 2011 also saw Bissen start up his project “Exostate” with singer Jeza for Enhanced Recordings, both singles released so far reaching the Beatport Top 10. In late 2012, along with Victor Dinaire, Bissen remixed the French art rock band M83’s “Steve McQueen” to much critical acclaim, as well as Major Lazer and Flux Pavilion’s “Jah No Partial”, which went top 25 on the Billboard club charts.

In September 2012 Bissen celebrated the 100th episode of his radioshow and podcast “TranceAtlantic” live at the National Underground in New York. The 8-hour event was broadcast live on ETN.fm.

Due to this fact, his work is heard by tens of millions of people every week. By staying focused and consistently enhancing his sound and music, Bissen continues to carve his very own niche, with his versatility and far-reaching talents now penetrating almost all facets of the music industry, growing every day.
