Bootlegger Bio
The Bootlegger (Ryan Reuting) first started in Denver Colorado being influenced by the thriving underground dance scene. While inspired by artists like Uberzone, James Zabiela, Craig Richards and Phil K etc., he began producing his own original tracks while developing his own sound. 

His early electronic influences helped him develop a finely tuned ear for production quality. Bootlegger immersed himself in Colorado’s thriving electronic music community, gradually incorporating turntablism, complex break beats, and original digital music production into his live performances. Today his music is centered on his original tracks, collaborations and good old fashion bootleg remixes. 

While Bootleggers’ performances are heavily influenced by break beats, he is known to incorporate dubstep, electro and glitch- among countless other subgenres. He explains, “The main goal is always trying to stay current with new music while paying homage to dance classics.” The young producer also makes a habit of collecting cutting-edge equipment and software to enhance his live performances as well as his studio sessions. He feels at home whether in front of a run-of-the-mill set of decks or a plethora of digital and analogue gear made to destroy the dance floor and leave the crowd with something they’ve never heard before.

In early 2010, Ryan Reuting and long-time friend Jonathan Fox co-founded Kontact Productions L.L.C. with a mission to throw electronic music events in order to find a larger audience for our artists and eventually help expose Colorado’s urban art and music culture to the world. In 2012 Bootlegger was signed to a Denver based label called Elevated Movement Records. His Debut album is to be released early 2013.
