Since my childhood I was infected with the music virus. Already at the age of 8, I cut cassette tapes secretly at night with the radio for my classmates with the latest versions of the current Maxi Dance to supply tracks.

More and more it crystallized, the electronic music out there and so it was the logical consequence that bands like Depeche Mode, Boytronic, Human League and others accompanied me for years and I was fascinated.
These novel and sometimes unusual synthesizer melodies were the ones I did not became out of my head and I began gradually each, Single or LP to buy from the respective artists.

In 1988 began the era of going out there and I was confronted for the first time with acid house. This new style of music was made for me. Rebellious, New coined impelling and oblique tones certain, because of this style of music to further my musical life. Though the DJ still be there at that time in the infinite distance and at that time was still not my goal was to be coined as a nickname already has remained so to this day ACID-ALIEN!

So it was the logical consequence of the use of that technology boom, no later than 1991 and the purchase of the first turntables and mixer that name as my DJ name was clear.

Over the years, developed a deep love for this music and was reflected in my life .... direct, always forward, forward looking and positive!

Yet was my DJ can not exist as hoped. With the birth of my two fantastic children, I put the mix into the background for me to fully concentrate on my then young family.

I go on Partys also at this time, never quite on, so I can now stand at an almost infinite Numbers of RAVES, FESTIVALS and CONCERTS look back, the inspire me impressed, and always did believe later hang himself again.

Whether Mayday, Love Parade, Nature One, Rave the City, Street Parade, Energy was everywhere and I am represented to this day.
The legendary OZ in Stuttgart was practically my Second Home and right there was where I learned to love uncompromising, driving and pumping techno.

Needed after the closure of the OZ found it quite a while until a new location celebration was, but this was soon found.

The no less legendary Prague!
Now the time had come, my old DJ skills again to refresh and I began to hang up at home first time just for me.
Significantly easier to me, the fact that with development of the digital age and computers to combine my love of it all was.
 
I now put on only digitally, because it gives me the opportunity at any time and anywhere to have my entire Reportaire it to without the hassle of lugging record boxes.
DJ also offer programs such as tractor operated exactly the kind of playing with loops and effects to my playful vein exactly.

My DJ style is characterized by hard driving, always going forward beats, which can sometimes also very experimental and are therefore at an angle, but always danceable! I break these sets also from time to time with techno tracks, vocals and loops Techno Classics and build it into my sets, so that they are always varied and distinctive. I refer to my own style as a Dark Techno and the standard BPM moves between 125-130 BPM

In June 2012, I had my first big show and the way in one of the most legendary clubs all over the world, namely the TRESOR in Berlin.

In July, a podcast followed at Deathtechno.com and on the Imperial Techno Series!

Ich sehe ihr aus der Ferne eine Weile zu, es wird langsam dunkel, aber sie tanzt unbeirrt weiter. In keiner Bewegung verharrt sie lang, sie taumelt und fällt doch nicht, sie ringt mit sich. Getrieben und fast unwirklich sieht sie aus, hier im Zwielicht.
Es ist, als würde sie eine Geschichte erzählen; it´s a rush of existence, your soul figures out, what will be, will be, without having doubt.
Ich bin zu weit weg; cover a distance.
Es ist nun, als schaut sie mich an, als würde sie mich ertappen, und mein Herz schwappt mir in Wellen bis zum Hals; my thoughts cut out my love in pieces, but i stay till i fall apart.

i want to be clear.

Die weißen Schwäne sind eingeschlafen und treiben im tiefschwarzen Hafenbecken umher. Ich höre eine Stimme. Im Dunkel steht ein Mann, er hat etwas in der Hand. Ich komme näher. Auf der Brücke zum Trockendock bleibe ich stehen und halte meinen Atem an. Er singt, was sie tanzt und sie tanzt, was er singt, die Nacht bricht ein, aber hier wird es heller um sie herum, wie ein Glühen, fast kann ich es spüren, und es wird wärmer, viel wärmer. Bin ich denn wach? 
Jetzt höre ich die Trommeln, das Schlagzeug, ich spüre es pochen in meinen Adern. Ich fühle mich jung;

Ich sehe das Gold.

Prolific singer-songwriter William Kuklis has been gripping audiences with his powerhouse vocals, emotion and charisma for over 20 years. Kuklis has taken his musical inspiration from a wide array of genres and artists and has been compared to greats such as Matt Andersen, Van Morrison, Steven Page, and John Popper. 
He began his life in music as a founding member of the Vancouver-based eclectic folk band Cultured Cowboy. Over four years the band released two full-length studio albums Cultured Cowboy and Cultured Cowboy Live at Orphan Studios. In 2001, Kuklis branched out on his own releasing his first solo album titled The Price We Pay. This tribute album to a lost friend was received with great acclaim and enjoyed much praise for the depth and composition of his performance and writing. With extensive live performances and appearances on radio and television, William shared stages with such artists as Craig Cardiff, David Ross Macdonald, The Be Good Tanyas, and John Bottomely.
Cultured Cowboy was reformed in 2004 under the new name Willie Kuklis and the Disappointments and they released their 2006 album The Hand That Pays. The Disappointments enjoyed many successes performing together. Highlights included shows for the Vancouver Grey Cup, and the Vancouver Sun Run playing for an audience of over 50,000 people. 
More recently, Kuklis relocated to central British Columbia to focus on multiple projects including music for several independent film and television productions. In addition to his music, William continues to pursue his other passions as a professional actor and writer for indie film, television and theatre. He has writing and acting credits in several indie film and television productions including X Spots the Mark for The Vancouver Film School, Quickies for Moviehouse Pictures, and The Distance of Truth for Pageturner Productions, among others. In addition to his film credits, Kuklis has been active in theatre throughout BC for many years as an actor, writer and director.
In 2014, William Kuklis released his second solo album I’ve Heard That Before. The album was lauded by his fans and media for its honest lyrical content and powerful vocal performance, and received radio play in both Canada and the United States. After the successful launch of I’ve Heard That Before, Kuklis was invited to play on the main stage for the 2015 Canada Winter Games.     
Kuklis’ latest project and third solo album Save Me, was released in 2017. He describes the process of making this latest LP as “a grueling experience,” spending the last two years creating and blending every component of the album, writing, recording, and selecting every line to capture “the un-edited feeling in each track.” The final result brings the audience through William’s journey characterized as “a measured walk through longing, pain, and love - just not as depressing or as Danielle Steel as that sounds.” Save Me is another bold demonstration of music and song writing that listeners have come to expect and relish from William Kuklis. 
William opened his boutique recording studio, Vinyl Deck Studio, located in in Prince George BC, and since its inception in 2013, he has worked with and produced several artists including Juno Nominee Marcel Gagnon. 
Kuklis continues to play live shows, and he is currently working on new material for further albums and upcoming projects.  
Selected praise:
“His voice is one of those rare instruments that could sing a grocery list or the ingredients in a soup can and make it sound delectable.” Frank Peebles - Prince George Citizen
“What a voice!” Sheryl Mackay - CBC Radio
“He projects vocal sound like an athlete projects balls over home run fences, the lyrics are clear and well enunciated but he can whip your hair straight back.” Frank Peebles - Prince George Citizen

Safran is a German band roaming on the ridge between Experimental Folk and Jazz, a mixture of Portishead and the Beatles, John Cage and Lady Gaga. The four/five musicians use eight instruments to create a distinctive and extensive but always surprising sound. The multifarious voice of Klaus Schüller (v, g, sax, synth) layers over the sometimes spheric, sometimes clear-cut foundation laid by Ben Briggmann (b), Jonathan Klein(p), Mats Niepmann (dr, sax) and Markus Richter (sax). With a strictly adhered distance to the rest of the music scene, Safran create counter-intuitive and strangely familiar compositions and songs to appease your thirst for musical progression.

American Alt. Rock band Call of All, reminiscent of iconic appeal and the nostalgia that the Rock arena and world once knew, is on the scene loud and clear with their Debut Album “War & Illusion” set to be released August 25th, 2017.

From soul churning, cloud 9 anthems to captivating world stopping ballads that hold your head in sway, and keeping you there long after the day is done, Call of All, composed of Hunter Watson and Cody Webb, have a sound that reminds you of a familiar, yet fresh sound.

Vocalist and former Day’s Distance frontman Hunter Watson, who has been featured on AMC’s The Walking Dead as one of Negan’s Saviors and “Big Johnny” on Tyler Perry’s “Too Close To Home”, is a veteran recording artist, now on his 3rd studio album, who stumbled into the film and television arena. In September of 2015 the release of “War & Illusion” was delayed due to developments catching fire in Watson’s filming engagements and budding acting career.

Guitarist Cody Webb is the frontman for the Rock band Ages Apart and producer at Belmont Lane Productions. Cody made a big splash in the entertainment industry in 2015 from touring the U.S. with multi-platinum Rock band Hinder, to landing a sponsorship deal with EMG pickups, and working behind the scenes producing various artists and more touring throughout 2016.

With the highly anticipated debut album “War & Illusion“, Call of All is preparing to shift into overdrive.

New sound, New music, New life…Direct your attention to Call of All!

It's the year 3059. The earth is on tilt, weighed down by the guilt of mankind. The rock heavy cries, the smoke-smudged skies, the countdown to the lack of existence. We're waiting on fear, the message is clear, nothing left but to plead to the distance. But wait- there's a glisten of hope, stop and listen, its the sound of a saviour, a space aviator, she falls, eyes follow her, Lozen, they say, the celestial warrior.

(All songs written by Lozen3059, copyright 2013. Recorded at Wolf 359 using an iphone, garageband, casio keyboards, melodica, guitar, korg monotron, a banjo, and a frying pan.)

Releasing a couple of vinyls with no specific distributer, labels future seemed bright and promising, back in 2003. However, in those days, a lot of record labels felt the power of digital music and a lot of them cracked underneath. Vinyl became a prestige and it just wasn`t possible to keep up with digital competition. The record label was founded in 2003 but inactive ever since 2006.

Etia Creations today is a different story. It aims to be more than just “another record label”. We started from scratch and revived the label from its foundations. The team expanded and in the past years we gathered precious experience on different fields associated to electronic dance music. However, the important thing is that we developed enough self-criticism to keep safe distance from the average final product.

We have a chrystal-clear vision now, and combined with love for music and experience from the past, we deliver nothing but pure quality.

Our goal is to produce high quality music releases, composed with love & feeling, mastered with skills, labeled with unique design and packed into our story. We aim to present our artists through their music - their releases and remixes, their sets through our podcasting service and live appearances for our fans at sellected Etia Creations events.

Stay tuned!

Born from the ghosts of ancient Hawaiian warriors, you can feel the Night Marcher's rhythm, pulsing in the distance as they ward off evil spirits.

Rewind.  In the late-nineties, static clogged the radio waves and Night Marcher drifted from music.  As the crowd poured out into the streets after a late night rock show, he was handed a Horde Tour Compilation CD and one track resonated like no other.

It is no coincidence that "Night Marchers" was the first tune that songwriter Rob Reinfurt heard from the avant-groove band, Medeski, Martin and Wood;  a band that has been influential in the way Reinfurt approaches music.  

Fast forward ten years.   Selfish wandering and social promiscuity was taking it's toll and Reinfurt got knocked out.  It was clear that passionless pursuits had no place in his life.   He battled  the law and himself.  The angst summoned songs and they came in droves: Rock songs, fuzz, reminiscent of the ones which rattled his teenage years.  His first creative pursuit, The Weekenders,  became his outlet for this expression.  

As the grip loosened, the music which greeted him started to morph, churn and groove, becoming more psychedelic, musky and soulful.
