N0. 96 RATED DJ IN THE WORLD ON THE
DJ LIST
Sean Tyas, a New York native, now residing
in Switzerland, brings to the dancefloor a mix of melodic
harmony and driving groove that is sure to be just as effective
on the legs as it is on the heart.
He got his start in 1999 with his first set of Tech.12s and
started to learn how to mix music, but just for fun on the
side and a good excuse to buy dance records. But for him,
this was not enough. In the coming couple of years, he put
together a studio and began producing records as well. By
the age of twenty six, he has already remixed artists such
as Christina Aguilera, Pink, Moby, Daniel Bedingfield, Christina
Milian, and PPK. During this time he got his start into professional
DJing with clubs in NYC such as Shelter and Exit.
Moving to Europe proved to be a great move for Sean, doing
all production for DJ Beam in Germany and building his experience
as a studio producer. Eventually Sean decided to step away,
concentrated much more on his own productions and remixes.
"Mirella" was the product of this exodus, as it
was promptly signed to Afterglow Recordings, seeing John Askew
and Dave Joy remixes. This led to a follow-up remix of Duderstadt
- Muhanjala, which has seen almost every playlist of any trance
DJ this year, including Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk.
Sean's remix of Beam - "On your Mind" proved to
be another HUGE club smash. Caned CONSTANTLY by the likes
of Paul van Dyk, John O'Callaghan, & Armin van Buuren,
this remix essentially locked Sean in as one of 2006's more
endeared talents in the genre.

The hype on his first Discover single "Lift", was
even more amplified by Sean's winning of the Sander van Doorn
- Punk'd Remix Competition, beating out over 250 other remixes.
The following year and a half up until now, Sean has quickly
been solidifying his place in the trance music genre with
relentless remixes and productions.
On the DJ side of things, Sean has hit the ground at a running
pace, and by now in 2008 he has already played in over 30
countries spread across 5 continents.
As 2009 comes around, Sean will now be getting back to the
studio to focus on his original productions, and develop more
as an production artist.
