Dirty Epic welcomes the Serbian artist @lag for the fifth episode of our Amplify Series podcast.

A promoter of the underground culture, a DJ and a respected producer - Serbian-born Lag is the on the forefront of the new wave of techno artists.

It is easy to notice from his sound that he did not take the usual route on his musical journey. He grew up on punk, acquired a classical education in music and then quit it all to find himself enchanted by the possibilities of expressing oneself both through DJing and making electronic music. He chose techno to be the host for his creative discharge, while always incorporating a certain dosage of his previous musical life to his current work. Grit, rhythm and attitude are his main tools as he blends them into his music, creating a potent combination which enchants, moves and unifies.

Lag’s DJ performances on the Exit festival’s main DJ stage, and the legendary Tresor club speak volumes of his ability to engage his crowd, and offer an intense sonic experience. Through his DJ sets, as well as through workshops and events he organized and promoted under the umbrella of his organization 29524, Lag put efforts into closing the gap between the “good” and the “known”. Since then his promotional activities have reduced, and his focus moved to delivering extremely functional DJ sets, but also on creating and releasing original music, mostly in the techno genre. After several appearances and releases, predominantly on the Serbian label Teskoba, his remix of Grovskopa’s “Atopic” is released on vinyl by Sect Records. He follows it up with his first EP named “Stutter”, a highly acclaimed release which came out on the notoriously uncompromising Singularity Recordings, and his latest outputs, 12” releases on MORD Records named “Misfit EP” and "Fiend EP", underline the quality and uniqueness of his already recognizable sound.

Lag is set to stay on his current path as his mission, his initial vision, is yet to flicker. His ruthless determination is awe inspiring, and is, along with his musical prowess, the main reason for his rising popularity. Lag is definitely someone to keep an eye on, but more importantly - someone to listen to. After all, as he frequently states, “it’s all about the music”.

Techno DJ from Berlin. Support @headlessfuture


Hey,
my name is Nic, I was born 1988 in Berlin and live here to this date.
As long as I remember I listened to music, nonstop. In my childhood the radio was always on and my finger rested on the record button until the one song played, that I wanted to have in my collection. Later, I recorded maxi cd’s on repeat to a cassette, the whole 45min of one side of the tape. The first cd-burner my father had, changed my live and I made my first compilations. Electronic music came early in my life and stayed there for most of the time. I live in the heart of Berlin-Charlottenburg and because of that, the loveparade was just around the corner. Me, as a 9-year-old boy, celebrating the music and people on the loveparade in the late 90’s was awesome and very defining for my music taste. Incredible summers in Berlin, armed with water guns, me and my friend refreshed the raver girls. As a teenager I had an extensive hip-hop and rap phase, but I luckily came back to techno. In my early 20’s I nearly lived in the clubs. My favourite one was the Tresor at that time. On my 21st birthday a friend of mine brought two turntables and a lot of hardstyle records. That was my first contact with DJing. Shortly after I downloaded Traktor and tried mixing digitally. Sadly, I forgot about that more or less. Until now. I finally started and I am practicing a lot and having a lot more fun. It is freaking awesome. After starting on a Traktor Kontrol S2 and Traktor Pro 3, i switched to Pioneer XDJs 1000MK2 and a DJM-750MK2. My love for music and knowledge about all the awesome tracks finally comes to practical use, other than just listening to music. Today I listen to every genre and artist I like. But most of the time it is just techno and electronic music in general. 

Have fun, leave a like or a comment with feedback, if you like.

We are one!
