W Kuala Lumpur's, WET Sessions continue this Saturday 14 December with the latest house producing/DJing duo Illyus & Barrientos who are setting dance floors alight in the UK’s northern clubbing powerhouse of Glasgow. With countless internationally-renowned DJs hailing from the city, there is no shortage of world-class talent rising from this fertile breeding ground for house music.
The pair have diverse origins. Barrientos has Chilean parents and was born in America, while Illyus grew up in Frankfurt after being born in Govan, Glasgow. They met on Glasgow’s dance floors in 2014, building a friendship over their mutual love of the kind of unashamedly big, floor-filling modern house tunes that have since propelled them to dizzying levels of acclaim.
With stellar releases such as Shout, So Serious and M.E.A on Toolroom Records, and more on Defected Records, Mother Recordings, Suara, Toolroom, Exploited Records and Glasgow Underground, plus riotous gigs at Space Ibiza, Ministry of Sound, XOYO, Sub Club, Phonox, Stealth, Riverside Festival and Boardmasters Festival, they have cemented their status as one of the hottest DJ and production duos in the UK.
