Epika brings melodic house & techno parties in Haarlem.

2 March 2024: EPIKA @ ... , XXX


More then a decade ago, Haarlem was a center point of melodic house & techno in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, this slowed down in Haarlem while it kept growing throughout the rest of the country. Epika aims to retrigger this DNA under new generations in the city by throwing filthy & steamy house techno raves. We combine new talent and established artists on our music program. The music on this profile reflects what you can expect on our events.

Rising Berlin-based live act Holly North is quickly making a mark on the electronic scene with a unique and genre-bending sound that has already gotten the attention of the imprints of Christian Löffler, Ben Böhmer & Oliver Koletzki. A Baltic Coast & Eastern German native from a musical family, he began his journey with the cello at age seven, later adding piano and electric bass and performing with bands and ensembles. After a period in New York, Holly delved into the electronic music scene, gaining recognition with releases like his 2021 widely supported single “Youth.”

Holly’s inter-genre pursuits include documentary and short film productions and scoring. On stage, Holly merges acoustic and electronic sounds, creating dynamic, nostalgic tracks. A versatile live performer, he incorporates multiple instruments including his cello and bass and is currently working on integrating a drummer into his liveshow. He has toured extensively across Europe, including with Löffler in 2024.

Bio
Minoz has his roots in Haarlem (The Nederlands), and he has been playing and composing for over 15 years. A recent two year experience in NYC changed his life and inspired him to enter a new phase in his musical career as Minoz that represents a journey through genres and influences from different cultures. 

His sound is euphoric and melodic house  and resonates together with electro synths, disco drums integrated into an underground vibe. His mixing skills are typically risky with short cuts and combining melodies from different songs in order to keep the energy driving on the dance floor.

Inspired by warehouse raves in Amsterdam and various Berlin artists, Minoz started organizing his own events throughout the Netherlands and got his residency at Club Stalker in Haarlem. His DJ career accelerated and led to gigs throughout the country including famous events such as Mystery Land, Gasten Zonder Grenzen, Amsterdam Dance Event and Familiar Forest. In 2021, Minoz released Arctic Lake on the Berlin based record label Steyoyoke.

Sensual Delight ist geprägt von Sinnesfreude, weil er mit seinen vorantreibenden basslastigen Deep-Melodic-House Elementen aufgemischt mit viel magischen melodischen-melancholischen Leads für eine rührselige, herzige und seelenvolle Stimmung sorgt.

Seine Sets waren zudem immer authentisch, denn er legte 15 Jahren ausschließlich mit Vinyl auf. Das erste Mal stand er schon mit 15 Jahren im heimischen Dachboden hinter den Decks und hat sich von der Pike auf, alles selber beigebracht. Angefangen mit Techno und dann später Minimal, kannte er sich mit Dj-Künstlern und dem Feingefühl für Turntables schon früh aus und baute sich damit sein musikalisches Fundament auf. 

So langsam kam er dann in den Melodic-Techno Bereich und seit ungefähr über 10 Jahren legt er nur noch digital emotionales und einfühlsames Deep-Melodic-House auf.
Jedoch seit über 10 Jahren etwa hat er den Enthusiasmus einer neuen Technologie für das digitale Mixing gefunden und zwar mit dem populären Traktor Kontrol S4. 

Nun stehen ihm dadurch das vollständige Spektrum der Künstler und deren Labels zur Verfügung, denn bei Vinyl ist dies ziemlich mühselig. Demgegenüber bestehen ihn neue Möglichkeiten der Trackauslese und es scheint ihm keine Grenzen im Workflow bei der Kreativität und Entfaltung zu existieren. 

Seit ungefähr 8 Jahren hat er sich allerdings noch eine nicht unwichtige Technologie angeeignet, nämlich mit professionellen Dj-Playern (sprich die bekannten CDJ’s) zu mixen. Diese elementare Technik wollte er sich nicht entgehen lassen, um so wie in Clubs mixen zu können.

Nun kann er in der Auslese mit noch mehr ‚Liebe zum Detail’ in seiner Funktionslust oder noch verständlicher in seinem Schaffens- bzw. Tätigkeitsrausch (Flow), euch in seinen Set’s zur hypnotischen oder ekstatischen Trance verbannen, um dein Herz zu gewinnen und dir parallel tanzbare bzw. clubtaugliche Rhythmen zu präsentieren.

Dementsprechend denkt er mit dieser Richtung sein wahren Kern der Seele in der Musik entdeckt zu haben. Somit ist er mit ganzem Herzblut und mit viel Liebe im Detail dabei, ständig neue Set’s und Podcast’s zu kreieren und sie via Internet der Öffentlichkeit zu präsentieren. Denn nichts auf der Welt macht ihn glücklicher als eure Herzen zu erreichen und euch mit seinen Klängen einen Beat um die Ohren zu werfen der euer Tanzbein mehr als nach vorne schwingt. Außerdem sollte man bei ihm erwähnt haben, dass er sein ganzer Job als Dj, welches er mit Herz und Seele erfüllt, nur aus reinem Gefühl für die eigene Ehre macht.
