Artist Info

I've been making music since i was 14 , started playing drums, bass in some crappy bands. Got into electronic music with one of those bands as we decided to work on some recordings.It was the home studio time with Pro 24 on Atari, S900 sampler, DX7 all synchronised to a 8 tracks recorder with Midex... it was around 1988 . I really got into . My first "techno" release came in 1993 , was not really good ;-))))) We founded a collective names 6th Sense Approach , back in 1994 .We threw tons of underground parties in weird venues and spent all after parties in a studio that used to make advertising during the days .Summer 1995 came the first release, a 7 tracks record with 22 minutes per side (sounded crappy) . Reload records got it and signed the band with a rerelease of 4 tracks. We did 5 eps and 1 album for them. Since then , i recorded for Rotation, Pure Plastic, Generations R&S , Teknotika, Dark Print , Bipolar, Muller , Tresor,Space Factory Disques, Pornflake... In 1996 i met James Pennington, we became very good friends and started making music together. In 1998 i helped him on the Suburban Knight live project. We played a lot and rehearsed a lot. During those rehearsals, new music was made. We finished the tracks and released an album on Peacefrog . We kept on playing , making tracks (Gerome Sportelli, my partner on The Sense joined the project) and we released 2 eps on Dark Print . I always been into Koln sound as i live 100 km from the German city. I remember going to Delirium record store to buy Profan records. In 1999 we played Matrix club in Zurich (The Sense live + Suburban Knight dj) . A crazy guy was dancing in front of us (really enjoying our set)... later on, he was playing room two , i LOVED his set , we became friends ,his name was Ricardo Villalobos. That night, my musical views totally changed, Ricardo gave me some of his records, i kept on buying his music, tried to see him play as much as i could. I have to thank him for that. Now i make music for UMF , Trapez ltd. ,... and co run Toys For Boys records with Celophane ,Ati and Aki, we start 2 new labels (Nomor and Obsolete) and i release my first album on Surprise records (with 2 eps) I also work as A&R for Audiopolis label group , we try to gather labels (p&d) and export them... we are doing ok i think. I also work for the Nandrin Rock Festival (programming the electronic acts) and we run together the Legendz parties . We have an old factory and our parties are fucking cool . Last news is the signature with SURPRISE records. A full album " A Gap In The Mind" is scheduled for september 2006 and two eps came out april and june 2006. The first one " Son_of _the_knight" featured remixes by Gerome"Krax" Sportelli, the second " Perfume" got remixed by Quenum and Jona . Another 12" is coming on UMF records in july 2006. From 1st april 2007 , a new job and a new town: managing the labels for Mr Jay Haze in Berlin .... It will be cool ;-))))
