Pray For More is the brainchild of Austrian born and raised DJ, Producer, Label Owner and Club Promoter, Roland Bartha.
He’s not a newcomer to this scene, having more than 25 years of experience behind the decks, including a 5 year Residency at one of Ibiza’s biggest and most prestigious clubs, Es Paradis Terrenal (1988 -1992).
During the same time he also played as a regular guest in some of Europe’s best and most famous clubs in nearly every major capitol, including Barcelona, Madrid, London, Manchester, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, Milan, Munich, Hamburg, Brussels, Zurich or Vienna, to name only a few, but also toured the rest of the world, including Australia, the Far East and the USA.
Those experience led him into his first job within the music business, doing Remixes for the first ever release on the legendary Positiva Records label (Exoterix – Void) and on Hi-Life (Nootropic – Noo Reality), and also releasing his first own tracks on UK label Subrosa, which he also worked for as a Promotion Manager.
In 1993 he returned to his native country, Austria, and quickly established himself as one of the leading DJs in the booming House sector, and also as a driving force behind X-tended Records, a label based in Austria, where he released 12 tracks under different guises and also worked for as an A&R Manager.
Not happy with the parties that were going on by that time in Austria, he started his own Event Promotions company, putting on some of the most legendary parties the country has seen over the last 17 years and still is heavily involved in this side of the business, putting on around 10 special themed parties a year, pulling more than 25.000 people.
But of course, he never stopped doing his own tracks over all these years neither, and so it’s no big surprise he released about 30 tracks over the years under various guises, before ending up with his main project, Pray for More. Under his Pray for More alter ego he released tracks on Subrosa, UDM, Defender, Plastic Fantastic, Con Brio and Lip Recordings, to name a few.
In Summer 2010, Roland laid down the structures for his beloved and succesful MJUZIEEK brand, and he has put in all of his experience in this new venture and a lot of love, passion and hard work, to create his own vision of a modern lifestyle brand within the world of Housemusic.
First, there was a record label, called MJUZIEEK DIGITAL, which became one of the hottest irons within this specialist market in a very short time, with countless number 1 tracks in various charts and hundreds (!!!) of tracks in various top 100 charts, including the massive “Sometimes” by the Audiowhores, the best selling track of 2012 at Traxsource!
These days, MJUZIEEK DIGITAL now boosts countless of amazing talents and their music, spread over a total of 5 labels (MJUZIEEK DIGITAL, MJUZIEEKAL EDUCATION DIGITAL, SOUL MJUZIEEK DIGITAL, UNDERGROUND MJUZIEEK DIGITAL and CONKRETE DIGITAL, with Conkrete Digital being a cooperation with Paul Gardner from Soul Avengerz.
Mjuzieek Digital itself specializes in Full vocal tracks, positioned in the Funky House / House / Soulful House genres. Mjuzieekal Education is the label for sample / disco / one-off tracks. Soul Mjuzieek Digital hosts Soulful and Deep House tracks as the name suggests. Underground Music Digital covers the Underground side of things, especially Deep House, Tech House, Classic House, Underground House and Percussive House, while Conkrete Digital is the label for forward thinking House covering various genres.
Since March 2014 there is also a radio show in cooperation with Jules Little called I LOVE MJUZIEEK, that is getting a lot of fantastic feedback so far, and has alraedy been taken over by more then 30 radio stations worldwide.
But doing radio shows is not what Roland / Pray for More is all about! No, it’s him as a DJ that still rocks clubs all over the place! Get Pray for More in the House, and you’ll have a rocking House, with the most upfront and much sought after music that you can get!
A set by Pray for More is mostly a set of completely unreleased stuff that will destroy any floor, ranging from funky, pumpin’ and jackin’ House to techy Disco vibes, ending up with percussive Tribal Grooves…
