  Cue obligatory pretentious bio:


  
            Markabre spins the mutated waxy detritus of every Eurasian diaspora. A time-traveling sideshow of audio oddities is condensed for your listening pleasure into a set as tight and sharp as a well polished curse. Simultaneously evocative of eras past and man-about-town modern, his selections bely his pickpocket scoundrel youth as he selects only the choicest musical marks for a hit.


  
            Few others have played to such a diverse range of audiences and events making him a shoe-in for any leading man role on the decks. Combine this extensive experience of working with live theatre and performances, giving an ability to construct sets which flow seamlessly around other entertainment.


  
            It pains such a modest man to mention it, but it would fair to warn the ladies, and some gentlemen, of Markabre's devilishly dark good looks which have been known to inflame audiences beyond the bounds of fire regulations.


  
            He is survived by four wives, eighty-nine children and a trained capuchin monkey named Basil.

They have been coined electro swing, rave jazz, swing tech and then some. As the story goes, the trio sparked into existence during a live session at the legendary Bar 25 in Berlin. When the sound of Tel Aviv hip-hop met the Berlin swing spirit, the alchemy was real. All three shared a similar feeling for the old-time jazz sound and that passion was the foundation of their identity, leading to their first album "Death by Swing" in 2011. As they started touring, the project quickly ascended to international festivals with the explosion of the electro-swing scene. They soon got the attention of record companies such as Wagram and Tower records which featured them on renown compilations. 3 Albums and countless shows later, the three Berlin-based artists are still independently working on their collage of jazz, blues, swing, catchy hooks and heavy electronic beats.

DZ6TEM / KRAKEN KREW / PBR / CHAPATI EXPRESS / OXYMOR/CRUX/ PSYCHOSOMATIK Records

RESH.G fait sa première rencontre avec les Raves Party à la fin des années 90. C’est donc tout naturellement qu’il intègre, début 2000, le DZ6TEM Crew, avec qui il organise des évènements et se retrouve régulièrement aux platines lors de fêtes innovantes et originales. Parallèlement à ses exactions sonores, il commence ses premières expérimentations sur des samplers, des boites à rythme et divers supports qui lui permettent de se familiariser avec la composition et le traitement du son.
Dès 2003, il produit des lives et des morceaux étonnemment matures et aboutis, bien qu’ils soient crées avec des moyens dérisoires et un équipement pas toujours adapté à ses ambitions artistiques. Cela ne l’empêche pas de se produire dans diverses free parties et teknivals en France et en Europe aux côtés de ses potes de toujours du sound system DZ mais aussi avec les Troubles Fêtes ou les Heretiks.
En 2008, il crée avec l’aide de quelques amis et d’un distributeur bien implanté le label DZ6TEM Records et enchaine 4 superbes opus en moins d’un an, ce qui lui vaut de se faire remarquer par de nombreux directeurs artistiques de labels hexagonaux comme CHAPATI EXPRESS, GLUMPK, OXYMOR, PSYCHOSOMATIK ou PAIN BEURRE Records ainsi qu’à l’international comme CRUX (USA) ou ELECTRO SUPERSTARS (Allemagne).
Très vite, les tourneurs et organisateurs de soirées s’intéressent à son cas: il se retrouve à l’affiche dans les clubs les plus pointus de l’underground parisien (Batofar, le Gibus, la Loco, La Machine, Glaz’art ou le Cabaret Sauvage où il partage l’affiche avec le célèbre duo allemand EXTRAWELT. Le bouche à oreille fait son job et il est très vite invité à sortir du cercle très fermé des soirées de la capital pour aller distiller des lives de plus en plus pointus dans les clubs et festivals de province (Toulouse, Grenoble, la Bretagne ou Chamonix sont sur sa carte).
Puis sa musique commence à passer les frontières. Il est désormais à l’affiche de nombreux évènements en Allemagne, au Cross Club, le temple de l’underground tchèque,en ITALIE ou encore à Bruxelles pour un set mémorable mélangeant musique tzigane et électro... En prévision, de nombreuses performances scéniques, un nouveau liveset composé de plus de Hardware ainsi que la production d’un album double Vinyle en étroite collaboration avec TOOLBOX prévu pour les beaux jours de l'année 2024... RESH.G c'est plus de 25 ep sortis en vinyles et a peu pres autant en sortie digitales depuis 2007 mais il est encore difficile de savoir jusqu’où son talent et sa soif de bon son pourront le mener....
