Los Angeles, CA — Updated July 2010
Voted 2nd of Top 10 DJs in Los Angeles according to The DJ List — Jan. 2010.
For over a decade, Arthur has been setting dance floors on fire in cities both near and far away. To date, he has performed at venues such as the Hollywood Arena, Spundae, RED, LMD at Circus, the Miami Winter Music Conference, The Standard in LA, Leiden’s Liberation Festivities in Holland, and Empire Ballroom at the 2006 Las Vegas Music Conference.
He has also been featured as Guest DJ on SIRIUS/XM nationwide satellite radio, Groove Radio International, Vancouver’s CJSF 90.1FM, Atlantic City’s WLFR 91.7FM, and internet stations such as ETN.FM, Orbital Grooves Radio, LiquidFM, PureDJ.com, Beat Freaks Radio, Global Dance Mission on iTunes, and countless others.
2010 marked the seventh year of Arthur’s radio show, “The Division of Hardcore Samples”, which aired every Thursday night from 10PM-12AM PST on KUCI 88.9 FM (kuci.org) in Orange County, CA. Some of his past accomplishments include live remote broadcasts through collaborations with event production companies Orange Vibe and Giant, in a joint effort to further expose electronic dance music to Orange County. Through this, he worked alongside artists such as Armin van Buuren, Dubfire (of Deep Dish), Miss Nine, Matthew Dekay, Marco Bailey, and Paolo Mojo. In addition, his weekly radio show allowed him to feature and interview many renowned DJs—such as UK DJ and Producer Lange, production stars Jonathan “Jono” Grant and Tony McGuinness of Above & Beyond, trance vocalist and songwriter JES, and radio legend Swedish Egil of Groove Radio. He has also shared the stage with artists such as Kenneth Thomas, Tritonal, JES, Aly & Fila, DJ Micro, Ronski Speed, Fei-Fei, Baby Anne, Dyloot, Dave Aude, and Dylan Rhymes.
At the start of 2010—after nearly seven years of being on the air—Arthur moved on from his Thursday night slot at KUCI 88.9FM to embrace emerging opportunities with greater focus. He currently guest hosts the “KUCI Hall of Fame Show” once a month, with revolving guest appearances by some of the most established names in the dance music industry.
In the production realm, Arthur is most noted for his bootlegged remix and mash-up, Lange vs Marcos – Out of Reality (Arthur Galestian’s Out-of-this-World Mash-Up), an electro-trance bomber which has seen heavy support all around the world at electronic music festivals, clubs, and events. For over two years, the track has seen consistent plays from the likes of Lange on his “Intercity” radio show, in addition to support on Armin van Buuren’s “A State of Trance” (episode 450), and tech-trance giant Mark Sherry’s “Outburst” radio show (episode 162).
Never ceasing to experiment, Arthur took a foray into the techno domain and released his first techno compilation on Aurora Music earlier this year.
In addition to his dedication to the dance music community, Arthur also works extensively in commercial radio. He currently handles multiple projects for radio syndication/production company Premiere Radio Networks, a subsidiary of broadcast giant Clear Channel. Arthur has also worked in the studio as assistant producer with Darren Rose and former MTV personality Kennedy on 98.7FM’s “Music in the Morning”. In addition, he produced the mid-day show with Marco on 98.7FM, including the “Rewind At Noon”, which features alternative rock tracks from the ’80s and ’90s.
With so many accomplishments to his name, it’s no wonder why Arthur is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after talents in electronic music.
