We are a start-up label from Weimar in Thuringia/ Germany which has specialized in the releasing of House and Deep House music.
After long-standing experiences as DJs and producers in the area of electronic music we had to find out that in spite of the existence of a variety of different underground labels „something is missing“. With the foundation of „artflakes recordings" we want to offer another opportunity to present House and Deep House music as an accepted art form.
With „artflakes recordings" we would like to release not only music, but tracks with depth. We want no mediocrity, but prove that music from the "underground" can be professionally produced. Hence, it is important to us that „artflakes recordings" releases music that is honest and authentic, in other words, music that is "real”.
House and Deep House can feature different forms and styles. Therefore the tracks on our label should be very much different referring to expression and sound. Therefore, we don’t want to limit the label according to style.

Levi has been Djing and producing for 20 years playing every type of venue from festivals to dark basements.  For Dj sets, current genres have evolved to a mix of Afrojazz breaks and disco derived tech house. For live sets, it's parasympathetic ambient for psychedelic therapy, animal and human sound healling.

''His productions move between hypnotic techno, acid-infused downtempo, and emotionally charged soundscapes.''

As a DJ, he's known for deep, unpredictable sets — mixing hard-groove techno, acid, baile funk, Arabic melodies, and other raw global textures.

Hobo Noise is a French composer and DJ who pushes the boundaries of electronic music by exploring captivating sonic universes. Since his early productions in 2017, he has stood out for his immersive approach, with tracks that have found their place in audiovisual exhibitions. In 2019, he refined his style by oscillating between trip-hop and dub techno, later exploring a more assertive techno sound with the Genesis and Morphosis EPs. It was also during this period that he began a notable collaboration with Mila Dietrich, particularly on the album Sex is Work, a project addressing the duality between men and women and the mental load of sex workers. Mila Dietrich later remixed this project for Hobo Noise, and in return, he remixed her track Hurt Me Harder, giving it an acid and dark twist to her original production.

In 2020, he released Grieving, an album composed entirely with hardware, blending analog textures with cinematic atmospheres. Three years later, Awake was its natural continuation, sharing the same references and instruments, but for the first time introducing Hobo Noise’s voice, used as an instrument. A year later, Bless, an unapologetic pop project, marked a turning point in his career. This track, once again sung with his own voice, signals the future of a full project based entirely on his voice, which he now uses as an instrument after overcoming the fear and shame of using it.

In 2024, ACIDSCAPE marked a new step: while purely instrumental, this down-tempo acid EP is an intimate work influenced by his adoptive roots and the musical cultures that shaped him, between Arabic and Brazilian music. Despite this diversity, the acid lines from the 303 maintain coherence, guiding the listener through the three tracks like a common thread.

Alongside his work as a producer, Hobo Noise has been a recognized DJ for over fifteen years. His musical spectrum is broad: while he is primarily known for his hypnotic techno and hard groove sets, he also excels in blending baile funk, afro-latino, afrobeat, and world music with techno. His DJ performances have been widely recognized and praised, particularly at the Unlimited Festival, where, after ten years of his career, he had the opportunity to perform alongside his favorite artists, such as Paula Temple, Marcel Dettmann, Carl Craig, and Kiddy Smile. Though his career has started small, it is now international—he has performed in France, Germany, Switzerland, Tunisia, Spain, and is already preparing to expand further in 2025-2026, with shows planned in Abidjan, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Tokyo, Lisbon, and more French cities to conquer. This stage recognition, combined with his musical diversity and energy, makes him an artist to follow closely, always in search of new sonic explorations.

But why Hobo Noise? To find out, ask him directly. The story behind the name is as personal as it is touching, and he’ll be happy to explain it to you.

I'm the stranger who spends his free time trying to impress you while he express himself through music.
So you can call me UrbanBas$e and that's my space where you are all welcome.
