What is the essence that creates moments for eternity? Is it the overtones, is it the phase shifts, is it the withdrawal and reinsertion of the bass groove, is it the syncopated rhythms? Gré Maillard clearly says yes! Gregor Mair - so his real name -  has been listening to and loving electronic dance music ever since he happened to hear Kraftwerk on his parents' radio at the tender age of 5 or 6. That was in 1985 or 1986 in the Upper Austrian country side, you don't really know anymore the exact date. The fact that Gregor wanted to do something like this himself at some point was always beyond doubt for him, since Radio FM4, a new Austrian radio station for alternative youth culture (at that time the window to the world for a real country bumpkin) with its own programme for house, techno, electro, etc., was created in Austria. But then the interests in singing and songwriting came in, but since 2018 it's time for appearance at the well-known DJ shows La boum de luxe, Swound Sound System and Liquid Radio (all broadcasted by Radio FM4) and running his label Szeretet Records since May 2019. Because it's never too late for a happy childhood!!!
