Paradigm Shift

I'm passionate about electronic music universe : Techno, Minimal, Tech-House, House, Deep-House. 

I was able to discover music quite young, my parents caught me dancing on Jazz, at 5/6 years old if i remembered well, ahahah, and from there my first saxophone and my lessons were offered to me. (conservatory, concerts, ..)  

So I bathed in this register for a few years, before gradually orienting myself on the world of nightlife (deejay, nightclubs, ...).

From there I discovered commercial music, I started to meet some deejay friends who passed on to me the pleasure of playing and mixing music. 

As the years went by, I had the opportunity to learn by myself, to choose the equipment that seemed correct and professional, to improve myself. 

I started to move away from commercial music, looking for originality, and that auditory journey I didn't have before (beautiful melodies). 

From there, techno parties (Villa Rouge, Montpellier (France), Portugal (Plages Electroniques, BPM in 2017, Kremlin (Lisbon), Main Club (Lisbon), ...) started, professional meetings too, and my taste for production, composition started too. 

And for 4/5 years now I'm focused on production. 

Music being for me a remedy, a soothing, a way to say what I can't necessarily say. 

It's a kind of landmark, where I feel extremely well, and where I can stimulate my imagination, my creativity, ... . 

"Music is my drug for a long time, even after my death it will continue to flow into my mind " !

I could already played in France (Savoy, Corsica, Montpellier, Vienne,...) & Portugal at the MAIN CLUB (Lisbon)& some Privates parties !

I love music and strive to have an entirely eclectic & open-minded palette of the art form.

diverse component for Subtle Events Atlanta & Southern Exposure Music:
		-Stemming from a more symphonic third grade beginning, 
Devin William Butcher {VENTRIS} immersed himself in the resonating sounds of strings and musical culture. Picking up a violin in the 3rd grade; the vast dynamics, stark contrasts, tempo, color, and velocity of its natural beauty, drove VENTRIS to instinctually find a deep passion for Trance music…this was made possible by way of Rank 1’s legendary track Airwave, in 1997. Another very close 2nd for his inspirational wheel house, is Safri Duo - Snake Food/Rise.  Devin’s taste for the longitudinal wave called sound, sought the finer nuisances of each evolving genre from then on.  From: house, breaks, techno, electro, and even eventually EDM; these constituents slowly carved away at his mind's idea of what sound has the potential to be. 
		-Ultimately, it is in the mechanics of how to coax another individual into expressing their deepest emotions on the dance floor, that has fueled Dev Butcher’s desire for performing. It is in all the minute details of VENTRIS' ever expanding drive, that the experiences of his sets culminate in unexpected twists and turns.  He constantly asks himself questions by which to measure his art, in an effort to accurately examine his abilities, and grow. How do you create the proper valleys for fireworks of peaks?  How do you descriptively create a message, while maintaining a close relationship with your dance floor?  How do you introduce an audience to something new?  
	-The diverse scenes and genres Devin has transcended throughout his career, has only reinforced the methods to conduct his madness.  Genres are irrelevant to him.  A good piece of music will always transcend barriers.  To him, if a track does not have transcendental potential, then it is not something people need to hear. Quality is always at he very top of his priorities.  He believes that music is the raw key to allow the ideal of ‘unity,’ to one day exist on this diverse sphere of carbon and water. 		
       -From: Marshmellow, Slushii, Speaker of the House, DJ Snake, 3lau…Bixel Boyz, Riot Ten, Chris Lake, Christian/ Justin Martin…Walker & Royce, Ardalan, Jerome Isma-Ae, Mercer, and Audien…DJ Dann, Danny Avila, Deniz Koyu, Mikael Weermets…Tommy Trash, Mark Starr, Wes Smith, Get Real, Simon Patterson…George Acosta, Kyle Geiger, Mr. Collie Parks, Bubba Sparxx and even Waka Flocka Flame:
	-VENTRIS finds complimentary moods to build up the beating of hearts before him…in spite of preconceived boundaries, he finds ways to excite any feet requiring a challenge…he is your guide for rhythmic satisfaction.
