Metatext - The Hip Hop Gangster [ASAB]

Humano de origen texcocano, viajero incansable con o sin boleto. Socioeconomista de profesión, maestro del enfoque sistémico y apasionado de la música. Atravieso el espacio-tiempo montado en mi nube favorita: el Downtempo.
Bookings: octaviolcipa089@gmail.com

born in 1972 in south west of france.
Passionated by all sounds since child (blues, soul, R&B, rock, funk, disco, rap, electronic  (from berlin in first^^) 
I became a vinyles dj at 20 years old , in 1992, playing into nature areas , forests, private parties. Educated by Dj Nerate (UK) from famous Spiral Tribe team, i'm  proud to have been a part of these first influences @ early times of techno movement in france with very small audience (but high quality^^^one) , playing house, hardhouse, techno, hard techno, trance , psytrance... sharing the sound also in thailand & nepal  (92 to 95) & goa beaches (92 to 97) , jungle or breakbeat, during 10 years
After a break of 20 years..I came back on the desks , that time on digital materials from summer 2022 & at 50 years old..(a kind of revival !) 
I like to improvise with all the avalanche of new stuff that i hunt & receive  each day from some precious friends. But i love also to build some storytelling using the prods made by all the artists i adore.
Downtempo or midtempo (even high tempo), house, slowhouse, deephouse, hip house, electronic , deep beats,psytrance or chillhouse & even sometimes with melodic or else .
My eclectic knowledge & my singular way to mix make my personnality , & in first my way to communicate & share the love , groovy & Deepness most of time.
I'm always opened from all labels requests & i was honored  to make podcasts for some  labels or friends like @octorecords @vodoom @templeofthedown @slomosensual @hekske&magicwishtapes @planetibiza @downtempobaby @artydal @秋分🌾 Autumn Equinox, @djleep (elysium cast) , lalaland from ladj, & @ajabtaal  .
Who else more ? just ask on private message or comments.
Sharing luv & sound with all of you.


stay tuned !

We love different kinds of music and believe in the synergies in between all of them.
Our partys and the projects in which we participate are supposed to be hideouts from everyday life.

Hamburg born producer Henning Riez started producing and playing records at the age of thirteen and began his musical career in HipHop when he was sixteen years old.  After finishing his studies in sound engineering and composition he got involved into countless projects: whether as a producer, mixing- or masteringengineer - chances are that you already heard his work without being aware.

Since starting off with the project Metatext some years ago he released on lables like Down, Kiosk ID, Under Your Skin, Magician On Duty, Wayu Records, Keller, Hold Your Ground and Get Physical. He collaborated with artists such as Thomas Atzmann, Ninze & Okaxy, Shkoon, Lina & Gwen, Christian Hülshoff, Echoel, his Sidekick Karhua and many more.

The utterance "Take it easy, Tiger" doesn’t just mean "calm down." For us it´s more about being attentive for small things that make music and life enjoyable <3
