Techno , House and Tech house …Welcome to the light welcome to the darkness

Im from Porrentruy (Jura) CH (Switzerland), the "local" (SoundRoom) was an important place in my youth. Jamming at the Drums with friends were enjoyable moments in early 1991. We had a keyboard player who own one of the first sampler keyboard AKAI to make industrial sounds. The Young Gods has been an influence for my electronic music interest. 

I had the opportunity to work at Analog Service (Burgdorf) as an elektroniker in 1995 that was my start in electronic music world. We imported analog systems modular system like Moog C3, Korg PS-3200, Fairlight, OBerheim Expander. I was repairing and implementing some midi kit to link with computers.
I was playing in the past with only analog gears such Roland TR-serie, TB-303, Korg MS20, SQ10, all were sequenced and sync together I did  not link at computer on stage. My Scene nick name was STEE-V in early 1996. 

I met ICOON artist and Rude Voltage came out, together we had an amazing amount of analog gears at the studio. Was very nice to connected all this fourniture together by any little sync boxes. We played live act in some parts of Switzerland, Bern, Basel (Nordstern), Jura, Tessin (Festivale del arte Electronica) organized by Mister Reed Blue. 

An other project in 2005 came out with my friend 3pleK called "Starskyandtouch". We had a couple of live act which took place in Vevey (Le natio,sauna club)and Delémont(SAS) in our Native canton. At this time we mix ableton and electribes series on stage.

By now music has been controlled by computer and once in a while we put out our old gears together mixed with new technologie such ELEKTRON Product and Ableton live to produce some sounds. 

2014 I was back on stage with the Festival "Les Digitales" in lugano, LivingRoom club in Lugano. 2 nights also at "Sauna Club" in Vevey. I do also mix the gear and computer. Ableton + controller + new Roland aira Series, a rocket Waldorf, effect like kaoss pad is also part of my weapons.

Recently I join the crew of "Low Frequency Foundation"  based in Zürich. We did 2 Events at Sauna club in Vevey with Vasco and Fabio Papa this year 2015.
Back to studies in 2016 I won't be able to spent time under music,,,, See you in 2017 for some event with the LOW FREQUENCY FOUNDATION Crew ! Bis bald !
