Aztronouth - Geiger Commander

Hi!

I have been a DJ for 20 years now and have hosted electronic dance events in Amsterdam, under the name Mechanism for 15 years of those as well. 

5 years ago I found an old and broken Juno 106 in my Dad's attic which led to me exploring my own sound more in depth and was the beginning of creating my own home studio, adding new gear along the way. I now produce electro and breaks under the name Aztronouth and downtempo funk obscurities under an alter-ego, Oortfunk. I am also part of Waveform Syndicate [Live] with Luus and Machinefunk.

With roots in hip hop, disco, Detroit techno and an overall love for funk, I believe I have managed to create my own style and sound.

My music has been released on CyberDomain, Connectome Records, Abstract Rhythm, Boomstraat1818, and Space is the place.

Interested in one of my tracks or dj bookings? PM or email.
