Their range of talent mark Elucidate as one of America’s top trance acts. Having worked in the music industry for years, Sean Beckwith and Ken Loi immediately began to make waves in the trance scene upon forming Elucidate in 2004. Their early productions straight away began to receive nods from some of the worlds most respected DJ’s; while on the mixing side of things, their very first demo mix landed them on the world’s largest trance radio station, Digitally Imported.
The duo began to build on this early success following up their first released mix for DI.fm with a succession of now famous mixes entitled the “Lucid Dream Mix Sets”. With each new mix their popularity grew on Digitally Imported and around the world. Eventually, Elucidate joined the star studded DI roster with their own radio show called “Deep In Vocal Euphoria” or DIVE. With the advent of their own radio show, Elucidate was now given the opportunity to share the decks with major trance DJ’s from around the globe as guests on DIVE. Past DIVE guests read like a who’s who of the trance scene with names such as Sean Tyas, Alex M.O.R.P.H., Woody van Eyden, Aly & Fila, Andy Moor, Kenneth Thomas, and Matias Lehtola. Plus, with the massive success of their radio show, Elucidate began to receive invitations to guest mix on numerous other radio shows internationally as well. These guest appearances placed them on the decks alongside such artists as Paul Van Dyk, Joop, Mike Koglin, Gabriel Batz, and Suzy Solar. Today, DIVE is syndicated on 7 different stations globally, and reaches close to 10,000 listeners each broadcast.
While their radio show was growing in popularity, Elucidate was concurrently busy in the studio. Emerging from the Elucidate studio came several remixes and original tracks which garnered praise and support from leading trance artists such as Armin van Buuren, Airbase, Andy Moor, Kenneth Thomas, Suzy Solar, Dyloot, and Elsa Hill. Their first release: “Artificial Dreamer feat. Catherine – It was You (Elucidate Remix)”, was signed to Ampire Digital Recordings and received support from numerous DJ’s including Armin van Buuren. This remix was subsequently followed by several class productions which caught the eye of a number of other labels, and helped them land remix work for the likes of Summer Channel, Nelly Furtado, and Kosheen.
Beyond their work in the studio and on the radio, Elucidate is amazing to catch live. Mixing at all times in tandem, the two DJ’s work flawlessly together to create sets that are nothing short of spectacular. Combining energy behind the decks with a pure love of the music they play, an Elucidate set creates a sensation comparable to nothing else.
