French Horn Rebellion’s latest album, "Graduation Compilation" is out now. Get it here: https://youtoocanwoo.lnk.to/graduationcompilation

Known for its “delightfully bizarre” (Vice) spin on indie-dance, French Horn Rebellion (FHR) is a music project that combines dance-punk, French touch, and electro with classic songwriting sensibilities.  It was co-founded by Robert and his brother David Perlick-Molinari in 2007.  Both currently work at David’s production studio in Williamsburg Brooklyn, YouTooCanWoo, and curate a new indie disco and house record label, @toucansounds

In 2007, Robert was a young classical horn player in the Chicago area making beats on his laptop, and throwing house parties.  Finding more joy in electronic/dance music than in the classics, he with the help of his brother David (who had recently produced MGMT’s Time to Pretend EP) created FHR and the duo released their first single together, ‘Up All Night.’

Soon after, Robert booked a 30-show national tour (mostly using Myspace) from Brooklyn to El Paso, playing every DIY electro party along the way.  From the friends they made that year, FHR was invited to play SXSW, sparking interest from the dance scenes of London and Paris to Seoul and Tokyo.  As a poster child of Brooklyn eclecticism, they received steady radio play on BBC’s Radio 1 and event performances with Les Inrocks and Kitsuné Maison.  In two years, the brothers went from playing the punk-venue basement at Lit Lounge in Manhattan, to the basement of the Louvre in Paris for the show of famed fashion legend Jean Charles de Castelbajac.

Over the last 10 years FHR has performed as a DJ as well as a live band across 5 continents, while collaborating on stage and in the studio with some of the most influential music artists of our time including official remixes for Beyoncé, Two Door Cinema Club, Sia, OMD and tours with Of Montreal, Cut Copy, Yelle, Hot Chip, SebastiAn as well as original studio collaborations with St. Lucia, Autograf, Jody Watley, The Knocks and many more. 

They have received praise from some of the world's leading media outlets including The New York Times, Billboard and The Huffington Post.  LA Weekly said, “We wish America had a million bands like this,” while in the UK,The Guardian regarded FHR's music as “killer dance-pop.”

Séxstasy is a Berlin based artist & selector and a mystical hero of the electronic scene, whose style is remembered from the first time. 

Without limiting himself to musical geography and being in the process of endless experiment, he creates the quintessence of various genres and waves of electronic music, striving to constantly reveal in new ways and tell different stories every time.

His performances are imbued with his own perception of the vibrations of sound, euphoric energy going to the dance floor, and the melodies from under his hands turn into a unique canvas of hypnosis and groove that take the listener on a deep journey where, like a shaman, he leads you through the streams of consciousness, heals, creates dreams and takes you into a ritual in which dance becomes an opportunity to see the invisible.

Having started his journey in Moscow in 2019, he quickly became a frequent guest at the leading events and festivals in Russia, and having moved to Berlin in 2022, he expanded the borders of his abilities in music, art, spirituality and the perception of beauty with renewed vigor.

Now he is actively touring all over the world, constantly working on technique and representation of his vision. His artistic approach to DJing and charisma got in love listeners the whole planet, MixMag has listed his set as one of the best of 2021, and performances at HÖR Berlin, Rinse France, ADE and Boiler Room are gaining tens and hundreds of thousands of plays.

A true artist in every sense of the word, Layton Giordani stands firmly as one of the most popular tastemakers of techno’s new school, with his pioneering musical vision serving as a contemporary voice for the younger generation. Spending years acquiring knowledge from musical greats, the 28 year old possesses a wealth of experience far beyond his years and has now undeniably earned his rank in the upper echelon of techno. With a repertoire that knows no bounds, the dexterous New Yorker has explored a new dimension of scope with each passing year, nurturing a monumental discography that echoes staunch dedication to his craft. Giordani’s palpable successes can be largely credited to his extensive stock of knowledge, garnered through an insatiable work ethic and years spent earning his keep in the industry. Solely focused on his passion for music from the age of just 13, Giordani’s path forever changed at 19 years old after watching Danny Tenaglia perform live at Pacha NYC. Deeply inspired by the formative experience, Layton began to master his craft behind the decks, landing a pivotal residency at Brooklyn’s Output NY that would consequently steam-roll his career into quick maturity. Thanks to the faith they instilled in him, Layton turned heads and began making a name for himself through his deft touch and sharp ear. Seeking further guidance from another of the long-standing greats, Giordani spent countless hours under the mentorship of Adam Beyer, honing his composition talents and studying the cardinal cuts of techno’s rich history. The affiliation resulted in Giordani’s first releases under the Swedish maven’s storied imprints; an EP titled Unspoken on Truesoul followed shortly by Rivington, his input to Drumcode’s celebrated A-Sides series. News of the untapped star’s fresh sensibilities circulated and in 2017, Giordani erupted onto the scene with his aptly-named debut album contribution to Drumcode in the form of Where It Begins. The 12-track LP served as the first seismic indication of his capabilities and subsequently received critical acclaim from artists, new fans and industry specialists alike.
