Jan Pienkowski live at Le Salon Daomé 08-22-2013

Simply called "Deep and Funky House Mix" - this is a vinyl house mix that dates all the way back to 2001! Some of you may have heard it at one time or another on the radio in New York, Chicago, Montreal, having a drink in a Montreal lounge or shopping at Roots downtown. Of course, you would have heard me spinning these tracks all over town as well ;) Enjoy!

Jan Pienkowski - Deep And Funky House Mix (2001 Vinyl Mix)

Do you remember my BOUWCAST #005 mix? The Black Bouwie Records series has been off SC for a couple of years, but up to that point it was my most played DJ mix and the most played mix from the BOUWCAST series among 30+ artists from around the world. It still remains one of my favourite classic deep house vibe mixes I have done and so I wanted to (re)share it with you :)

BOUWCAST #005 - JAN PIENKOWSKI
@blackbouwierecords

JAN PIENKOWSKI is what you can really call an all-round musician. No matter what you can do in the music industry, he´s been there … spinning vinyls, playing live, teaching music production, running various labels (ONO records, ONOMAR and ONOBOTS), creating sounds for video games, collaborating with visual artists, organizing events … and probably a lot more stuff that he just forgot to mention. 

You can really hear his deep affection for house, techno, dub, world, classical and jazz. An affection that brings a diverse palette of textures, grooves and acoustic spaces into every mix.

His versatility and ambition behind the decks convert BOUWCAST #005 into an excellent interpretation of house music. Big shout out to our man in Canada, it´s great to have you on board!!

Jan Pienkowski @ City Hall Barcelona for DROPS Night (2014-06-30)

Here is my set from Levó Elite in Mexico City on July 19th. Unfortunately, due to technical problems with the recording only the first hour of my 3.5 hour set made it to recording... but hey, at least the first hour made it! This way you can hear how things started and imagine where things went from there ;)

Owner of ONO Records and sub labels ONOMAR and ONOBOTS, Jan Pienkowski loves to create and share his unique blend of music and sounds. His music, electroacoustic and physics training and deep affection for house, techno, dub, world, classical and jazz bring a diverse palette of textures, grooves and acoustic spaces. While his studio work for labels, dance, film and video game projects grows in demand, Jan is equally at home behind the decks making people dance in clubs and festivals across the globe (Barcelona, Madrid, Mexico City, Hong Kong, Warsaw, Montreal ++).

Back home in Montreal, Jan DJs in the best clubs the city has to offer (SAT, Salon Daomé, Stereo Bar, Laika, Peopl/UN, Kanalbar) as well as making festival appearances for Mutek, Elektra, Black & Blue, MEG, Divers/Cité, Nuit Blanche. He has been a resident artist at the Société des arts technologiques [SAT] (one of the most unique digital art spaces in the world) for over ten years, producing and performing DJ/VJ/LIVE events and interdisciplinary immersive live shows as well as developing and teaching music production courses. 

Jan's constant quest for pushing the boundaries of electronic music and live performance has given him the chance of collaborating with the Opera of Montreal, to be the music and sound composer for the film RE-GENERATION commissioned for the UN COP21 Conference on Climate Change in Paris, the music director and performer in DOMAGAYA - an encounter of Aboriginal Cultures and Digital Arts for the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada during the 400th anniversary of Quebec City, as well as to be chosen by the British Council as the Canadian Representative for the Cultural Leadership International (CLI) initiative.
