Artists

With both his parents being professional classical musicians, it might not be a surprise that John Tejada has become known as one of the most prolific and consistent producers in today’s eletronic music landscape. Trained on drums and the piano from an early age, the LA-based composer has since amassed his own impressive skill set, embracing the music as a personal frontier, expanding on his resume as a techno recording artist as producer, remixer, DJ, and label owner. Known for crafting a brand of subtle, musical sonics, his recorded output ranges across tempo and genre lines, from chilled out affairs with spacious arrangements to pulsating, densely layered, deeply energetic tracks that work magnificently in the hands of DJs as well as on the home stereo.

Before hooking up with Kompakt, the much-acclaimed studio wizard had already made his own dent in the musical universe, thanks to a flurry of top-tier releases on labels such as Steve Bug’s Pokerflat Recordings, the legendary Plug Research imprint, 7th City, R&S Generations and many more - but nothing prepared the world for those exquisite bangers „Sweat On The Walls“ and „Mono On Mono“, both released in 2004, with the latter being one of the most fervently beloved classics on John’s own label Palette Recordings. It’s here that John has continuously honed his skills, together with friends and long-time collaborators like Arian Leviste, Justin Maxwell or classical jazz guitarist Takeshi Nishimoto (as band project I’m Not A Gun).

Besides his work in the trenches of modules, patches and other things spelled synth, John has developed some serious DJ acumen over the years - travelling around the globe to light up renowned clubs and festivals such as Movement (the event formerly known as the Detroit Electronic Music Festival), Sonar Festival (both the Spain and Tokyo instalments), Dance Valley (Netherlands), Sync Festival (Greece), Mutek, Fabric (London), Yellow (Tokyo), Rex Club (Paris), The Walt Disney Concert Hall (Los Angeles) and many, many more. It’s somewhat admirable, then, that the man still finds time for his studio explorations - but the quality of the releases he has unleashed upon Kompakt alone (including brilliant full-length offerings and a couple of much-liked 12"es) bears witness to the musical talent that is John Tejada.

In 1998 Julian La Brooy’s four track recorder was tragically destroyed. A sound tracker completely changed everything and Hitori Tori was born. Agitated breaks became combined with tweaked arpeggiated synth lines, some cut up vocals, and a few lugubrious tones thrown into the background for good measure.

Early releases included tracks as part of the electronic duo Finch on the Sugarmonk/Interchill Om Complilation in 1999. Fasp, another musical incarnation, released an album on the net label NISHI in 2002. Contributing a track to Balanced Records’ Northern Faction 4 compilation, Hitori Tori continued with his meticulously detailed productions.

The Dutch brothers Van der Schilden and Peter Spaargaren have been exploring musical emotions with deep, atmospheric layers since 2006, forming the electronic act 'Easily Embarrassed'. Combining various styles and flavors, from electro to ambient and from dub to psychedelic, they blend retro synthesizing with today's sound design.

Hailing from the EE Studio in Aalsmeer, Holland, they've already earned their marks releasing 2 free EP's "From Sunset Last Night to Sunrise This Morning" and "Darkened Emotion". Easily Embarrassed moved on from there, leaving the demo scene behind when they released their debut album "Idyllic Life" on Cardamar Music. The up- and downtempo flows of 'Easily Embarrassed' has developed strongly over the years, not afraid to venture into the unknown, but always staying true to their own, distinct sound.

Since first experimenting with music software in 1995, Baltimore based DJ and producer Ryan “K-Rai” Stinnett has continued to create and release music with over a dozen albums, EPs, and remixes across a range of styles. A pioneer in electronic music, performing original, Techno, Breaks, & IDM influenced material live with laptops and a DJ mixer before the term “laptop DJ” entered the general lexicon. Along the way meeting fellow laptop musicians, a crew known as Cytoplastik. Deep in Baltimore’s warehouse art-scene, they put on gallery openings with full-on after-parties and released a compilation “Pods” in 2003. That year K-Rai also started participating in the Philly Laptop Battles presented by Seclusiasis. Later, a finalist at the Mid-Atlantic Laptop Battle in DC, 2005. Always hungry to create and push things further, K-Rai is no stranger to collaboration. After forming a duo dubbed The Megadrives with Joseph Clark in 2006, both of whom had just switched to using Renoise production software, K-Rai then became victor of Philly Laptop Battle #7 in 2007. Under this new project they released multiple well-received albums on their label Quantum Groove, consistently gigged, and have appeared on various film and video game soundtracks, such as the documentary Fagbug, and the retro inspired game Gunlord (CGR 2012 game of the year).

Since 2012, K-Rai’s focus shifted to blending the sounds of Juke, Jungle, Footwork, and Drum&Bass, while touching on Techno, Down-Tempo, Garage, Grime and Bmore Club. Melding these seemingly disparate influences until something new emerges. K-Rai has featured mixes on Reprezent Radio, Juke Bounce Werk, Bassota, and Expansion Broadcast. Notable releases include the Footwork debut EP “Up the Ante” on FUSION, Techno single/remix EP “Brokken” featuring remixes by Micfreak and Keny99 on Funktrap Records (made beatport’s Top 5 Hard Dance releases), an exclusive remix of Normaling “Ignobiles” on Space is the Place Records, Quantum Groove compilations, and a remix of Aligning Minds “Ether Perfect” on EDM.com (reached #1 on the Future Garage charts). With new tracks always in the works, K-Rai will continue to push the boundaries with his own genre-defying electronic music.

Player_1 (aka Gracz Pierwszy [PL]) is an electronic music artist from Poland whose favourite style is the electro. He started his adventure with music composing in late 90's as a teenager when he discovered the ProTracker software on his Commodore Amiga 600 computer and after that he never stopped.

At the beginning he was focused mostly on Amiga demoscene and computer games dreaming of being a member of one of the famous groups and that thing was pushing him to make more music and trying to build some projects with other people. On his way he met also the Fasttracker on PC which he was using for making funny remixes and hip-hop beats for Highschool MC's. He expanded style horizons being inspired mostly by Jean Michel Jarre, Liam Howlett "The Prodigy" and his love to electro style was firestartered by set of DJ Dave Clarke - Electro Boogie X-Mix which includes a lots of great electro artist tracks.

The revolution of possibilities for Player_1 was a time when he discovered the most modern tracker which is the Renoise DAW and he realised that he can continue his "music-do" with no limits now. Player_1 is open artist for other styles as well, projects, collaborations and remix contests and you can find this in his production. Today he's strongly focused on developing his music skills and good sounding. Many topics inspire him especially science, technology and philosophy.

The Electronica of WÆLDER from Vienna and Berlin oscillates between Ambient, Post-Dubstep and Pop, it scrapes past weird Folk and LoFi and sounds so organic, one can almost hear it breathe. Their beats and synths build landscapes of rugged cliffs and mossy ground that are teeming and crawling – warm and damp, magical, peculiar and harmonic like life itself. There are obscure samples, voices, field recordings, as well as countless instruments...

WÆLDER work in different places, at different times. Nonetheless, they are a band. Jan Preissler from Berlin, handling guitars, bass, mandolin, piano, bagpipes and vocals, and Moritz Nahold from Vienna, classically trained on cello, saxophone and drums but responsible for synths, beats, soundscapes and noises on their album debut “Anachronie”, which was entirely made with Renoise. The two protagonist’s marked musicality is certainly one of the reasons making “Anachronie“ such an effortlessly floating listening experience. They play or have played in orchestras, jazz ensembles, stoner rock and punk bands and work apart from WÆLDER as musicians for theatre and film.

The vocals on “Anachronie“ are fragmented, pitched, layered and looped – deprived of familiar meanings, natural flow of language or even conclusive gender determination. WÆLDER realign them into androgynous- electroid evocations, faintly reminiscent of Tibetan mantras or shamanic healing songs –softly unsettling, hypnotic and embedded with the music just like another instrument. Yet, the vocals do onemore thing to these tracks: they transform the post-dubstep of WÆLDER into electronic pop songs. The sounds and melodies are catchy but queer and just like the vocals, they teeter on the brink between reality and dream, between science and evocation.

Drawing much of their inspiration from Electronica duo peers such as The Crystal Method, The Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk and Orbital. The Megadrives unabashedly revel in expressing themselves using the computer to output original, propulsive sounds in their quest to bring every listener together on the dance floor via the rhythms & melodies.

Their live shows—whether fierce or chill, are a symphony of laptops, mixers, MIDI controllers, effects and mixing techniques—the definition of intense creative energy. Wherever they perform, they leave audiences mesmerized. They are a unique phenomenon in a scene dominated by the DJ—all tracks performed are self-produced, mixed live, and tweaked through the software Renoise. Within the realm of electronic music, the Megadrives refuse to limit themselves to one particular genre, exploring any style that excites them. They’re at their best unleashing an ever-changing, nonstop, mega-fluid mix of Acid, Breaks, Down Tempo, Drum & Bass, Dub, Glitch, House, IDM, Psychedelia, Trance, Trip Hop and hybridized sounds that have yet to be labeled.

René made his first musical steps on his Atari 800XL in the mid 80s. After lots of programming his tunes in Atari Basic, his experiments continued using different trackers on his AMIGA computers - Octalyzer, Octamed and Octamed Soundstudio - during the AMIGA period in the 90s he played the keyboards in two bands starting from 1995 to 1999 and created music for lyrical performances named "Bleu" with a friend.

After a long time of silence interrupted by very rare Buzz sessions he found his way back to music. His new works are Renoise-only, no other hardware is in use. Creating music to him is like painting pictures as a hobby, mainly expressing punctual situations and scenery and his strange urge to place "acoustical monuments".

Up and coming Dutch hardcore DJ/producer Audio Nail started producing music somewhere in the 90s. He has his roots in the tracker scene and has been working with a lot of different programs. These days Renoise is his obvious weapon of choice. Next to Renoise he uses drum pads and controllers for drum sequencing and effects tweaking/recording, most of which is done real-time/live.

His productions can be described as hard, aggressive and distorted. Influences range from reggae to metal, and from Mozart to Frank Zappa, as long as it's good music. Audio Nail's first EP is being released in February/March 2013 and many more will follow. His total lack of respect for musical boundaries gives him that edge every artist needs.

22tape's music has just enough experimentalism to have you scratching your chin while chumming around at that art gallery.

Yes, that was a "Mrs." 22tape says "it's more exciting that way." And his favorite form of protection is Renoise.

2methyl (aka 2methylBulbe1ol) is an up and coming audio heavyweight from the East of France. He started to play the guitar when he was young, surrounded by the filthy sounds of Post-Hardcore, Grindcore and Noise Rock. His love for these genres feeds into his electronic music, as he tries to translate the raw power and energy of these styles into his own sound. His discovery of Venetian Snares and Xanopticon opened new boundaries for him to explore, and the result of these influences can be heard in his music; where crushing bass lines and aggression meet heavy complex beats and intricate melodies. 2methyl attempts to use music as a form of narrative, using his mixes to lead dance floors through intriguing cyberpunk, industrial soundscapes. 2methyl's releases to date include 2 EP's (one a split with Niveau Zero, the other solo) on Rotator's Ruff Recordings label, another EP on komodo dragon records, remixes for Tympanik Audio, Jarring Effect and a brand new Ep on OverclockHeadz. He has shared the stage with Eight Frozen Module, Niveau Zero, Sinister Souls, Counterstrike, Reso, Dope D.O.D, Luke Viber, Shitmat, Igorrr, Stazma, Rotator...

Paula Daunt wrote her first song at the age of 7. Her favourite pastime then, was hitting pots and pans while her grandma tried to sing and play the organ. It was quite obvious that Paula had a talent for punk, novelty, variety and anything that could catapult her wild mind into the next melody. Using guitars, a digitakt, octatrack, several weird synths, a 707, her all-time favourite software, Renoise, well pimped with bit-crushing, seizure inducing VST plugins, samples, and her voice, Paula manages to present us with anything from melancholic drones and atmospheric ambient tunes overloaded with strings to Lo-fi booty and the good old breaks; most of it, pretty catchy.

She has taken part in several short-lived radio programs, composed soundtracks for documentaries, a play, sang with a swing band, played heavy techno in Sao Paulo in the early noughties, then jungle and drum n’ bass in the unfriendly south-east London, until she got fed up with the queue of MCs and all the rewinds in 2010, when she finally moved to Berlin. She escaped to Japan in 2016 and remains there hidden the studio in her attic.

Now she remixes her mates' tunes, makes soundtracks for fashion film, and produces tracks for various compilations under the name of Paula Daunt, Erdloch and Agnosie. Her tracks are far too eclectic for a sane EP, and that’s why the underground appreciates this deranged girl so much.

Having been involved with the promotions end of the industrial rock and IDM music scenes since she was a teenager, and running a drum and bass record label with her husband, ASC, whom she also manages, writing her own music - after she'd been promoting other people's for years - was a logical progression.

Drawing inspiration from synaesthesia and her melting pot of musical influences ranging from Portishead to Skinny Puppy, Vaccine's style has been recognized as being considerably more melodic and not necessarily as dancefloor-orientated as her male cohorts. XLR8R magazine noted her "subtle melodies and echoed vocals", as well as stating that "(Vaccine's) constructions aren't necessarily main floor rave fodder, but rather, comedown music for the 6 a.m. afterhours." She is also notable for being the first female producer signed to a label in dubstep, Hotflush Recrodings, within what was up until then a genre whose producers were almost, if not entirely, male. Her DJ mixes as well have attracted attention for their careful commitment to precise blends, mixing in key, and unexpected multigenre inclusions.

Never one to be confined by formulas or tempo, as evidenced by her DJ mix selection, Vaccine has recently been slinging her talents further afield partnering with elusive but lauded fashion designer Ernte on music for his runway shows, and garnering praise 30 bpm faster writing the melodic, IDM style of drum & bass popularized by Instra:mental and dBridge's Autonomic Podcast series. Additionally, Renoise, her sequencer weapon of choice in both the home studio and live PA setting, has been pushing her as the face of their site on their music player.
