A love letter to rave culture, '199X' is the debut artist album from Anjunabeats stalwart Damion 'Damo' Houchen, also known as Genix.

The LP is a departure from the sound Genix is best known for. Through the late 2000's and 2010's, Genix was well known for his textured, melodic take on trance. He caught the ear of Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk, securing releases on both Armada and Vandit. Genix arrived on Anjunabeats in 2010 and immediately became a mainstay in Above & Beyond's sets with tracks like 'Aura', 'Destinations' and 'Black Water' (the latter written with regular touring partner Sunny Lax).

From those origins, Genix has blossomed into a mainstay in the trance scene. As his stature grew, so did his approach to his music:

"There have been so many influences [on my sound]; DJs, producers, events and the thousands of records I've bought over the years. I don't try to be any one genre, some people think I produce less trance sometimes, but if you have followed my career from the start it's always had tech influences. I think any producer should stick to the sounds they love, if it makes me jump out of my seat when I'm making it, then that's all that really matters.

My music is a representation of my personal taste, it's my expression and my passion being put into sound. It really is an art and I just try to be myself, not a genre, not a certain BPM, just Genix." - Genix

His Anjunabeats Worldwide 09 mix championed these ideas. It was an iTunes #1 dance album that took us from slow burning progressive to fiery techno, landing somewhere between a Global Underground mix and a classic Gatecrasher compilation.

2020's 'The Light' was a bullish electro-edged anthem alongside label mate Grum and hit number one on Beatport's Melodic Techno chart. DJ support from Etienne De Crecy and Hi-Lo (Oliver Heldens) followed.

A polished DJ, Genix has performed around the world; festival stages at Creamfields (UK), Tomorrowland, EDC, ABGT250 and 350, to more intimate club affairs; Ministry Of Sound, The Hollywood Palladium, Warehouse Project.

These shows don't live up to the heights of playing 5,597 metres above sea level though, where in April 2019 Genix set the Guinness world record for the highest land DJ set, hosting a party at Everest Base Camp.

'199X' is available on all good digital stores now, with 2x12" vinyl available to pre-order on the Anjuna Music Store, due for release in October.

One of the most standout artists for me in recent times.
Proud to know him personally. Keep smashing it, Damo!

I’ve listened to this album on repeat for most of this past week. Absolutely incredible album! Cohesive, no filler, and banger followed by face-melter. Thank you, Damo, for a truly special album and journey.

I was born in 1989, so I'm not to old and in most of my childhood grew up listening to the music from the 90's. This album remind me that epoch; so it's a gem for me. Genix hit the mark, no doubt. 😇🙊🙂😊😊😊

It's one of those very rare gems that'll live on for many years to come... Absolutely light years away from those generic trance edm albums taking you on a magical journey back to the core roots...

Pure class

Jesus. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed an artist album this much in a long time. I agree with the comment earlier, other artists take note! I hate to say this but prior to this I am not a big Genix fan…however my god this is incredible and unexpected. Great job to him and Anjuna for making this happen. Kind of takes me back to nostalgic old school mixture Paul Oakenfold and Sasha vibes!

Serious Wows!! Genix used to be just another ambiguous Anjuna artist to me earlier, but this album has outshown his talent and brought his name an identity.

Absolutely brilliant! Genix on the drop🔥🔥🔥🔥🕶️💎🖖

The first to the seventh tracks are really amazing but afterwards the other tracks are just pure bangers. I love this album! Personal favorite is "I'm Awake", "What You Do To Me", & "Fly Away"

progressive trance is the best genre of electronic music at the moment.
