Michael Sowbug - Proof [Connaisseur Recordings] - snippet

Michael Sowbug from Karlsruhe in South Germany, born in 1987, was really impressed by the music of the Golden Era of Hip Hop. He started early to follow up artists such as Dr. DRE, Snoop Doggy Dogg and Wu Tang Clan and Michael cites these artists as the inspiration to take up the turntables himself. The foundation of his musical career was laid. Already at the age of 12 he spun his first records for hours and recorded live sets, which were sold in the local record store.

Having a background of turntablism and fast creative mixing from the hip hop time, he moved on to electronic music at the age of 18 years. He still plays Vinyl today. The fascination as a DJ to make several thousand people happy and smile with music, motivated Michael to start his own music productions. The year 2012 began with his debut track "Proof" on Connaisseur Recordings, followed later by more releases on smaller labels. Michael attaches great importance to worldwide contact to other artists. He believes this provides the opportunity to collaborate and the chance to exchange some awesome underground sounds – and then play them in his sets. His track "Base Patada" was remixed by David Gtronic, Onno and realeased on Serkal. Another honor for him was to release on AMA Recordings with his friend Nicke. It has always been his aim to release on vinyl and it finally is reality. His dream comes true ...

We are looking forward to seeing what the future will bring...
