In 2009 and 2010, Maelstrom gets signed to the infamous french underground label Expressillon Records, with 3 releases reviewed by DJ mag, IDJ, Mixmag, Trax, M8, or Raveline, and followed by no less than 15 remixes for various labels and artists across the world, from ESL in the USA to Meat Katie's LOT49 records and Elite Force's U&A in the UK, taking over the Beatport Top 50 chart several times. With such a healthy back catalogue, Maelstrom toured most of the world in 2009 and 2010, performing before enthusiastic electro and funk fans in Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, China, Austria, Eastern Europe, Italy, and Switzerland many times over, as well as at London institution, Fabric. Mael has quite simply exploded onto the scene in the past three years, drawing the support of artists across the globe, including the likes of Laurent Garnier, Crookers, Djedjotronic, Lee Mortimer, Dj Zinc, Krafty Kuts, Aquasky, A.Skillz, Lady Waks, Elite Force, Napt and the Plump DJs.
