Adrenaliner (Adrien) is a dj / producer who comes from Nantes, France.


After 10 years of studying piano, Adrien goes deeper in music revelations while discovering the power of decks and 1997 becomes a great year for him. It's now time to experiment a very new way to understand rythms and share those with others.

House and techno music rules for him : Detroit, Chicago, New York, all the various sounds that are bringing the groove. 

In 1999, Adrenaliner begins to spin in several underground places around Nantes and other cities.
Famous places begin to give their trust to a young kid who was still carrying his record bags on his moped...

In 2001, he leaves Nantes to study in Paris. In this new city he meets a lot of new people there such as his good friend Alex Plastik (KW, FBSS, Progrezo rec, Atomic Soda records, M-nus..). Someone with whom he'll divided the Parisian nights for some times.

2006 was the time for him to leave the capital madness's and travel to work around Europe and North Africa. Another good opportunity to meet new crazy people, many different backgrounds and cultures and of course many new ways to think the music.

Nowdays, after years in several place, Adrien is back to his homeland, nantes, time to express his sound engineer skills while the making of the soundtrack of some documentaries for instance. 

Durring 2012  he's joining his forces to Geoff Clinton's Atomic Soda records  A perfect way to jump back to the world of electronic musics, gigs and to begin to produce too !

Après avoir étudié le piano pendant 10 ans, Adrien alias Adrenaliner découvre en 1997 la puissance de la musique électronique à travers les vinyles. 

La house et la techno vont, dès lors, couler dans ses veines : Detroit, Chicago, New York font partie de ses références affichées.

Malgré son jeune âge, Adrenaliner se fait progressivement une place dans
plusieurs lieux underground nantais.

En 2001, c'est le départ à Paris et la rencontre avec Alex Plastik, avec qui il partagera les platines et une amitié profonde. 

2006 sera l'année des voyages, en Europe et en Afrique du Nord, desquels il sortira ouvert aux sonorités nouvelles... 

Après plusieurs années passées dans différentes villes, Adrien est récemment revenu dans sa ville natale, Nantes, pour mettre en pratique son métier d'ingénieur du son et de compositeur (films, documentaires).

Courant 2012 il intègre l'équipe du label Atomic Soda avec Geoff Clinton (manager) et Alex Plastik (directeur artistique), la musique électronique est plus que jamais au coeur de ses activités.

Co-fondateur et résident du @warehousenantes, l’hyperactif Quentin Schneider est devenu en quelques années, l’un des grands porte-paroles de la scène électronique de l'ouest. Bercé par la musique deep et jazzy de St Germain, c’est grâce aux disques de ses parents que Quentin découvre peu à peu la musique électronique. Après avoir séduit son public sur de prestigieuses scènes comme les festivals Panoramas, Astropolis, Techno Parade, ou dans les clubs au Rex Cub, Badaboum, à l’Iboat, c’est à Nantes qu’il trouve refuge, comme programmateur du Colisée Club puis en tant que directeur artistique de l’Altercafé et enfin au sein de Paradise Prod, une des structures les plus influentes du bassin nantais depuis plus de 15 ans, avant d'ouvrir le Warehouse en septembre 2017.

Côté production, c’est dans le studio de son binôme et talentueux FEM qu’il fait parler les machines. Après un remix sur Qubiq Platinium Séries de Gipsy Family et deux originaux ‘Groovy Sunday’ et ‘Bumper’ (disponibles en téléchargement gratuit), ils viennent de sortir un remix du morceau ‘Ritual Spirit’ de Massive Attack, supporté notamment par Maceo Plex, Luciano, Monika Kruse, Marco Carola, Nick Warren, Terranova, Slam, Richie Hawtin et par Guy Mantzur qui le joue dans l’émission de Marc Romboy « Systematic Podcast 317 ». Et consécration, voilà que le Laurent Garnier playliste le morceau dans sa cultissime émission « It Is What It Is » d’avril 2016. Aussi à l’aise sur platines vinyles que sur des formats numériques, ses dj sets sont à l’écoute des émotions du public et de l’endroit, et évoluent entre deep house et techno, toujours dans le groove, celui qui fait bouger les jambes et les mélodies, celles qui font danser l’esprit…

Ever since Animal Trainer launched their global party campaign, the Swiss duo’s unique brand of ‘slow rave’ has captured the imaginations of countless electronic music lovers all over the world and spread their gospel to thousands, if not millions, of music lovers. Adrian Flavor and Samy Jackson are the two men behind Animal Trainer, a dynamic duo which grew up on a diet of the world’s very best electronic music artists in their hometown, Zurich. Driven by passion for the music and an insatiable appetite for the party, Adrian and Samy have become two of the hottest properties on the international circuit and represent the epitome of what Switzerland’s new generation of artists has to offer.

Raised in a city with arguably the strongest club scene in Switzerland, Animal Trainer made their name through a series of parties called ‘Rakete’, which still take place at the infamous Hive club. The duo had already spent some time refining their skills as DJs before launching the event, but their sterling reputation was cemented at the club. It was only a matter of time before the ambitious duo pushed things a step further by injecting their love and passion into creating their own music.

In 2008 Animal Trainer dropped their first release, ‘Talkshow’, which was followed by releases with some of the industry’s most influential labels; Defected, Poker Flat, mobilee, Einmusika, Katermukke and their own highly-regarded Hive Audio label among them. More recently they released ‘Aeron’ on the influential Canadian label My Favorite Robot and have an abundance of material pencilled in for release, including original material and remixes for Freude Am Tamzen, You Are We and Mona Berry.

2013 saw the release of Adrian and Samy’s debut full-length album, titled ‘Wide’. Spread across 13 tracks, the LP demonstrated their maturity as artists, focusing on the dance floor, but also incorporating down-tempo cuts and collaborations with vocalists such as Jan Blomqvist and Jimi Jules. It was a resounding success, with widespread praise and leading publications such as Groove Magazine and Data Transmission weighing in with glowing reviews.

With each new release Animal Trainer push the boundaries of their sound, introducing subtle nuances, unforgettable hooks, emotive rhythms or enchanting melodies while retaining their own individual groove to keep the dance floor bubbling. It’s not an easy task, but the boys stay focused and lock themselves away in the studio as often as they can in order to maintain the high standard they have already set.
Their increasing popularity has taken them from Zurich, and all over Switzerland, to some of Europe’s most respected club spaces; Watergate (Berlin), Robert Johnson (Frankfurt), Studio 80 (Amsterdam) and Lightbox (London) among them. While their worldwide fanbase has also skyrocketed leading to a myriad international appearances and tours including; South America, the United States, Asia, Australia and Mexico, playing at clubs like Warung Beach Club, D-Edge (Brazil), Bar Americas (Guadalajara), Public Works (San Francisco), Revolver (Melbourne), S.A.S.H. (Sydney), Baum (Bogota) and many more.
In the years since their first release Animal Trainer have maintained a constant focus on high quality club music, staying relevant when others have followed the hype, and evolving into a force to be reckoned with. They are party boys who take their music very seriously, but are never serious themselves – it’s a winning combination that has kept them one step ahead and on a constant upwards trajectory. Whatever they do next you can be sure that it will be something special…
