THE LIKES OF YOU WITH STEPHAN BODZIN LIVE AND HUGO
SATURDAY JULY 3
Intuition is the little man inside all our heads. A flash of illumination that can't be judged by logical reason. Intuition gives us direction and guidance in every aspect of life, from who we like...and who you don't, where we eat and drink, what we wear and what music we like. Some people are in tune with and close to their little man, some people don't hear him at all. For those of you who don't listen, your intuition is
telling to you to its time for techno...Its time for The Likes Of You.
STEPHAN BODZIN Re:Live (Herzblut Records, Bremen)
Authenticity is everything - without it everything would appear to be nothing more than a hollow shell", says someone who has found himself at the centre of the
international techno scene since 2006. The passionate musician from Bremen has become a heavy influence for an awful lot of producers worldwide.
As the son of an experimental musician his career in the music industry was set from an early age. And it was only a matter of time before Stephan would fall in love with electronic music. Composing music for several prestigious European theaters was the irst successful platform for his music. His mind-blowing talent was soon discovered and producers such as Oliver Huntemann, Thomas Schumacher and Marc Romboy queued up to work with Stephan.
Due to the quality of his impressive music he has reached the top of the international techno scene. Most recently he has remixed songs for well-known bands such as Depeche Mode, Booka Shade and The Knife His solos productions have done nothing but raise his worldwide profile even more and he now has the freedom of an individual artist with a worldwide audience.
Stephan's music is as polarizing as he is, both as DJ and live artist. But there's one statement that holds true for all of his productions: they are certainly of the highest ‘authenticity.
HUGO (Italy)
Hailing from Turin in Italy, Hugo was really young when he had the perception that music is something more than an expression of art. During the 90's classically trained jazz musician Hugo, felt in love with electronic music.
Music is not merely the sound, or the perception of sound, but a means by which perception, action and memory are organized. In Hugo's live set the beat became
more mechanical and the bass grooves became deeper, while elements of electronic funk, latin percussions and melodies are grafted over 4/4 beat.
Hugo has been releasing his productions, constantly improving his ability to amalgamate distinct sounds into a cohesive whole. Hugo blends together the artificial and the organic, and uses tension and pacing for a powerful effect on the dancefloor. Hugo's music is not a break with the electronic music of the past, but an
extreme re-invention of the music of today.
