01. Ditty Menon | Opening. / Winter's Wind EP 2008.

Introducing: Lesion. [new 360 residents at TrouwAmsterdam]
When a new year appears, fresh movements are bound to happen. Two kindred spirits found each other and decided to unite in their pursuit of discovering and bringing modern electronic music.
The fellows who go by the name of Mykaz and Ditty Menon each followed their dedicated road in a scene that is overloaded with hypes and the easy four to four tunes. Both of them didn’t manage to fit themselves in this profile, as they found it far more interesting to explore the world of [electronic] music from a broader perspective.
Ditty Menon. started playing bass in his teen years and has ever since been an active member of the Dutch music scene. As time passed he developed an interest for the electronic side of the musical spectrum. Actions were taken, and he started playing records and producing songs. Where his live act was already spotted in Ekko [Utrecht] and LVC [Leiden], his dj-ing placed him at locations as TrouwAmsterdam, Studio 80 and De Beschaving festival.
His producing activities contain releases on Odessa Records and NewEclectic. In 2010 he was asked to compose music for a documentary on the music scene in Leiden and recently he went to Iceland to record new material and work with local artists. Furthermore a release on Klopfgeist is scheduled later this year.
Mykaz. is one of those freaks who got into music the second he laid hands on his first musical toy. Since the day he went to elementary school, he had a quite unique taste and approach to music and couldn’t wait to get home to play with his tapes, vinyl and cd-collection.
At the age of 15 he had his first official gig. Years went by and Mykaz kept his fair share of bookings, but found himself forced to play music he felt was empty.Hence, he decided to put the compromises aside and get back to the music he loves. This certainly proved him right, as nowadays his track record holds prestigious nights such as Planet Rose [Doornroosje, Nijmegen], 360 [TrouwAmsterdam] and Ekko [Utrecht].In search of further satisfying his endless urge for discovering new music he is also the host of boundary breaking show Erupt on XT3 Techno Radio, which is highly supported by well-known artists and promoters across the globe.
Hence Lesion has played alongside artists as Monolake, Agoria, Aril Brikha, Chymera, Luke Abbott, Fairmont, Extrawelt, Ellen Allien and many more
