Week of 19 April

Welcome back to the Depth Perception Sessions. The gift that just keeps on giving 😉

This week we welcome a very good friend of mine to the show. Super talented German producer and all round nice guy.

Martin Merkel

Bio:

Martin Merkel is a somewhat mysterious figure within the European Techno scene. The maverick German producer has often stepped away from the egotistical glare of publicity, preferring his music to do the talking. He quietly creates his own self-described brand of “Soulful Techno”, steeped in complex emotions and with an attention to musical detail that comes from many years of dedication to his chosen craft.

Originally inspired as an artist by the experimental attitude of Italo Disco and the embryonic Techno scene, via parties at the likes if Dorian Grey and Omen (Frankfurt) and Tresor (Berlin), Martin Merkel’s nascent career saw him develop an early love of analogue synthesisers – and saw him fill his studio with a desirable collection of Moog, Roland and Waldorf machinery. In recent years he has moved towards a more compact, travel-friendly digital studio set-up, but his love of synthesisers remains a defining characteristic of his uniquely distinctive musical output today. A master of sonic excellence and musicality, his creations have previously often crept out on the likes of Cinematique, Bonzai, Secondary Tones, JOOF, Monkey Business, Neverending and his own Shelter 54 imprint. Now, under the auspicious guidance of Platipus Records the most exciting new chapter of his career is about to begin.

Like many others burdened by the persistent lock-downs of 2020, Rupt deeply experienced the dismal and dreary atmosphere persistent in each day, made all the murkier with the frequent cold and rainy weather in France. Out of this dark and shadowy tenor developed “Muddy Mood”. Stylistically, Rupt channeled the idea of being trapped/locked in a loop, a loop that never seems to end -- indicative of the monotony and restrictions of the current global crisis. 

The track entertains the emotional idea and minimal concept of presence vs. emptiness while maintaining its dark and demonic theme. The minimal space creates ample room for creative remixes -- delivered in spades by fellow french artists RNDM., Probe (new project from psy producer Neuronod), and German producer mexCalito.

Muddy Mood EP is Rupt’s first release with Shadow Wulf Records. This will be RNDM.'s second release with Shadow Wulf, and both Probe and mexCalito's first.

MTR Radio Episode 206 Sous Dubois

George was born in the city of Xanthi, Greece but currently lives in Athens.
From his early years he showed interest in music, which came natural considering the cultural growth and love of the arts that surrounds his birthplace.
He draws inspiration by everyday scenes and his tracks reveal a man with an artistic ear and view of life. He started as a DJ from the early age 14 and became quite successful, starting from Xanthi and moving downwards the country.
He has worked with some well-known producers-DJ’s such as: Behrouz, Sabb and more.
His producing career began 6 (six) years ago with the EP “In my dream” on Lee Burridge’s label “Get weird” that became a hit and soon enough had his own vinyl record. There were more from that came from, as it tends to happen with creative minds. Some of his hit releases come from known labels such as Do Not Sit / Tale & Tone / SOUKSONIC / The Soundgarden / Get Weird / Keyfound

His tracks received support by globally renounced DJ’s and producers. Some of them are John Digweed,Hernan Cattaneo,Nick Warren,Darin Epsilon,Lee Burridge,Lost Desert,Audiofly,DAVI,Armen Miran,Newman,Death On The Balcony,Kevin Di Serna and more.

Rofdcast 44 - George X

BIO:

Paul Hazendonk and his @manual-music company are an essential part of the underground electronic music landscape. The kind and gentle Dutchman has been active as a label boss, deejay, and producer for nearly two decades, during which he performed in excess of 35 countries and has worked for labels such as Diynamic, Sudbeat, Einmusika, Kittball, Hope Recordings and Sony / Epic amongst countless others.

His independent record company Manual Music serves as a home for various record labels, several of which are headed by Paul himself. Deeply rooted in the electronic music scene, his company also takes care of the digital distribution-, label management-, promo- and publishing needs for numerous labels and artists.

In the earlier stages of his career, Paul honed and perfected his craft as a deejay through recidencies at various clubs, including the legendary Las Palmas in Rotterdam. He got asked to play his first international gigs aged only 19 years old, and hasn’t looked back ever since, considering the fact that he’s performed anywhere from North America to Asia and from Australia to through out the whole European continent.

Although over the years he’s perfected his own distinctive sound, it’s not easy to pin Paul down and stick any one particular genre tag on him. He's an allround music aficionado first and foremost, who embraces the idea of a classic deejay, having total musical- and artistical freedom. His sound is characterized by warm basslines and melodies, but always with an infectious drive, often blending elements of both house- and techno music, also not shying away from the occasional sidestep into breakbeats or electronica.
 
Paul Hazendonk plays his DJ sets in the same way he’s running his record company; based on gut feel rather than being boxed in by fixed genres and trends. One thing is for certain: the vibe this true musical connaisseur radiates through his productions and deejay sets is always overflowing with true passion and love!

Hallo Freunde, heute präsentieren wir euch den DJ & Produzenten Michael Schumacher aus Düren. Michaels Begeisterung für die elektronische Musik entfaltete sich bereits in jungen Jahren. DJs wie Adam Beyer, Monika Kruse und DJ Rush erweckten in Michael Begeisterung und Inspiration, was ihn dazu verleitete bereits mit 14 sein erstes DJ Equipment zu kaufen. Schon nach kurzer Zeit erkannte er, dass er dem Sound seine Seele einhauchen wollte und damit begann im Jahre 2005 seine Reise als Produzent. Michael entwickelte hierbei eine absolute Leidenschaft. Das regelmäßige veröffentlichen seiner Tracks auf bekannten Labels wie Frequenza, LW Recordings, Set of the Day und vielen Weiteren, zeigt uns, dass sein Talent nicht ungenutzt bleibt. Euch erwartet ein treibendes sowie gefühlsintensives Techno Set, das nur aus seinen eigenproduzierten Tracks besteht. Danke Dir Michael für dieses Kunstwerk.
