Bio:
Emiel Zwart got influenced with the Techno virus in the late 90's. Inspired by great Techno pioneers he started mixing for himself and sent a lot of demo’s to different clubs and organizations. Not long after that he was invited to play at the infamous former club Nighttown Rotterdam. 

After a couple of successful gigs in Nighttown he was  also performing at other clubs and party’s in and around Rotterdam and later on  also contending at several DJ contests. The biggest contests were the Backspin DJ contest in Nighttown and a couple of years later the contest Q-Factor from the big organization Q-Dance. In both contests he made it through the finals. His talent was not getting  unnoticed and from then he was expanding his territory throughout the whole country. Loaded with a bag full of records he was performing at famous clubs and party’s like Defqon1, Q-Base, FFWD Dance Parade, Kozzmozz (Belgium) and many more!

Now an established force in contemporary Techno, Mike Bierbach, better known under his stage name Rødhåd is someone who has seriously put in the work. Having cut his teeth DJing as a relatively unnoted (but well loved by those in the know) local in Berlin for 10 years, one could argue that by the time success knocked on his door, he was more than ready for playing the international stage. It was during these 10 years of obscurity when he refined his craft to become the singular DJ he is now. 

Launching his party-series-turned-label Dystopian in 2009 was what truly tipped the ball over for Rødhåd. In a time where the Berlin scene was heavily oversaturated by fluffy, miscellaneous dance music, he & his peers set out to form a platform for real techno. The reception to this was raucous. 

Although he has lauded productions and remixes to his name, DJing is his true forte. Before abandoning his day job as a draftsman in construction “The Red” (as some call him due to his gingered, bearded appearance) was known for playing very long sets in Berlin’s most notorious hideaways. 

With an album, several EPs & remixes for a multitude of different artists under his belt, Rødhåd the producer has received equal praise as Rødhåd the DJ. Dystopian has hosted most of his releases, but in 2018 he founded a new label WSNWG that serves as a home for collaborative productions, excavated in sessions at his East-Berlin studio with his peers such as Lucy, Alex.Do, & Antigone.
