He performed at the 2013 and 2014 Ultra Music Festivals in Miami and in 2014, MAKJ was asked to join Bingo Players on his first tour through North America.
Also performing is Toronto native Joe Ghost whose success in the past few years included his breakthrough track “Are You Ready” with Hardwell which hit #1 on the Beatport charts and was voted by DJ MAG as the biggest track at Miami Music Week in 2013.
