Michael Ius @ Metanoia 26 November 2021

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share my experience performing at Rush Rave event in Sibiu, Romania on March 11th. 

As many of you know, Romania doesn't have many techno events above 130 bpm, so I wanted to challenge myself and the audience by exploring higher tempos and creating contrasts in my set.
I started with some digestible sounds and gradually took the crowd on a journey to more hypnotic worlds.

It was amazing to see people closing their eyes and getting lost in the music. The feedback was great, and I feel like I accomplished what I set out to do.

Huge thanks to Rush Rave and Alex Ivancuta for inviting me to be a part of this unforgettable night. 
Can't wait to do it again!

VISCERAL RADIO 072 | MICHAEL IUS - EXCLUSIVE MIX | 03 DECEMBER 2024

Michael Ius is a Romanian classical music guitarist who later transitioned into techno,
showcasing his versatility as an artist. He graduated from the George Enescu Music High School, followed by the Music University in Bucharest, where he specialized in classical guitar. Being a live sound engineer for live bands and a pop music producer, Michael was
always drawn to the technical side of music. In 2012, when he discovered techno, it was
an instant connection. 

In 2020, Michael began searching for a distinctive sound he genuinely enjoyed producing, one that resonated with him personally. After three and a half years of experimentation and development, he finally found it. Consistently producing in his refined style, he started receiving support from prominent underground artists and labels, leading to releases on “Maloer Records”, “OUT OF PLACE”, “SYXT”, “Duplicity”, and more, as well as his own “IUS” series on Bandcamp. His music is supported by: Lobster, MARRØN, Amoral, Lindsey Herbert, MKO, Grace Dahl, and more
