Taurus & Vaggeli formed in 2006 and are now emerging as one of the hottest new electronic dance music producer/dj tandem. The US based duo of Leon Weingrad and Angelo Bratsis, have a unique sound that crosses boundaries between House, Electro, and Techno. Their cutting edge sound has grabbed the attention of many top industry talents, labels and also has built a fan base globally.

Over the past few years they have released music on many labels, with some heavy hitter releases on Toolroom, Juicy, Definitive, and Circle Music, to name a few. In March 2010, the duo cracked the Top 10 in techno sales on Beatport with their remix of Joachim Garraud’s “No Techno In This Room” track. They also flirted with tops in sales from their “Hello Ibiza” single, “Cherry Picker” single with their good friend Jan van Lier and a remix of Chris Lake’s “Release” track. Support and plays of their productions has come from many different top tier DJ’s in their respective genres, including the likes of John Acquaviva, Chris Lake, Carl Cox, Dave Spoon, Francois K, Joachim Garraud, D.O.N.S, Matt Darey, Eddie Halliwell, King Britt, and David Vendetta to name a few.

Coming up, the duo will have a full-length debut album coming out along with vocalist Mark Richardson. T & V have also been busy with a lot of remix work and will also be releasing some singles from the album. The duo also plans to get their web radio show off the ground soon and despite a heavy production schedule, Taurus & Vaggeli plan on doing some live performance shows in Europe and the US this upcoming season.
