♦ TOMMY FOUR SEVEN (CLR (Official), DE)
In a musical landscape that’s often turning towards its rich heritage for inspiration, it’s rare to find an artist as distinctive as British born, Berlin based DJ and producer Tommy Four Seven, who has established himself as a prolific force throughout an enviable career just shy of a decade.
Since relocating from London in 2008, he has gone on to position himself as a core member of Chris Liebing’s renowned label CLR, using his own studio in an industrial sector of the city as a base from which to craft the acutely visceral sound he calls his own.
It was following remixes for lauded producers Lucy and Traversable Wormhole, that Tommy announced his boldest statement to date in the form of his debut album Primate. Released in 2011, it was a move that was to bolster his standing as one of the most exciting acts around, not least for it’s singular approach to sound design and refreshingly abrasive attitude.
Winning him instant critical acclaim, and containing celebrated tracks Armed 3, Ratu and Track 5, it was to go on to be reworked by such esteemed names as Robert Hood, Regis, Speedy J and Sigha, before earning him commissions from the likes of Perc, Emika, Truss and Brendon Moeller.
After pricking the ears of Stroboscopic Artefacts, who enlisted him for their distinguished Monad series, he now embarks upon his latest venture with Alain, of the respected One Million Mangos mastering studio in Berlin.
Through Hidden Hundred - the creative platform and outlet they’ve constructed for themselves – they are set to release their highly anticipated, self-titled debut album under the moniker These Hidden Hands, a project that epitomises the intuitive approach Tommy has taken towards his work thus far.
Coinciding with solo shows across Japan, Australia, North and South America, and throughout Europe, including a staggering 12-hour set at the infamous Berghain, it marks another chapter in a truly covetable career.
♦ LUCY (Stroboscopic Artefacts, IT)
Lucy is the nom de techno of Italian-born and Berlin-based Luca Mortellaro, one of the genre’s most exciting and ambitious DJ/producers. Since 2009, Mortellaro has focused his work through his own Stroboscopic Artefacts label, building an imprint and personal discography that has established itself as one of techno’s finest.
Since the label’s debut, Lucy has found a home in Europe’s premiere nightclubs with regular gigs at Berghain and Corsica Studios, and been invited to tour the United States, Australia and Japan. In addition, he’s become a mainstay at internationally respected festivals like Sonar, ADE, Time Warp and Club2Club, where he has showcased his uniquely deep yet dancefloor-driven sound. Those who haven’t been able to see Lucy in person likely have seen him on Boiler Room or downloaded one of his mixes: He’s a regular guest on the CLR podcast, and has also put together immersive listening sessions for Resident Advisor, Electronic Explorations and mnml ssgs.
Studio-wise, Lucy will release his second solo album in 2014 for Stroboscopic, following his critically acclaimed 2011 debut Wordplay for Working Bees. In 2013 he released a collaborative album with Speedy J via the imprint under the name Zeitgeber. He’s also had solo releases on Chris Liebing’s CLR and Luke Slater’s Mote-Evolver – two labels that have been a home for collaborative 12-inches between him and Xhin (CLR) and Silent Servant (Mote-Evolver) in the past as well. Both Bleep and The Wire, meanwhile, have asked him to contribute tracks for compilations, tastemakers clearly eager to hear more of the sound that he has become known for: a bewitching hybrid of analogue love and digital know-how.
These dual interests are the core of Lucy. While he has one eye aimed at making people dance, the other often goes deeper and more abstract than his peers. In 2012, he was asked to perform at the Rossini Opera Festival – an honor bestowed on one electronic artist per year – where he remixed the celebrated composer live. (That performance can be found through the gallery, which released the results in a limited edition soon afterward as Rossini Recomposed.) In short, he’s a refreshing anomaly in a genre of singularly focused DJ and producers: A true artist.
♦ STATE OF FLOW'S FIRST ANNIVERSARY
“Have you ever been so engaged in an activity that you lost track of time or even your surroundings? A bomb could of gone off and you wouldn’t have noticed? That’s called “flow” – a state of consciousness where we experience a task so deeply that it truly becomes enjoyable and satisfying.”
STATE Of FLOW is how Igor Vicente named his fresh new residency party at famous Fuse club, renowned for his past Wildfamily's, he gained through this experience a great exposure about how to bring it to the dancefloor and offering young names (which are not anymore) like Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones, tINI, Guy Gerber, Nick Curly, Dyed Soundorom, Ryan Crosson, Shaun Reeves and Bill Patrick just to name a few…
Fuse will be upgraded to a 'SOF - State of Flow' configuration involving interactivities and connections. It will be our space, our rhythm, our flow.
For this 8th edition Igor has invited some upcoming international artists. The first one is Julietta, a House enthusiast since the early nineties whose introduction to the world of underground Electronic Music was inspired by producers like Moodymann and Maurizio. So many years later Julietta is one of those rare worldwide-playing artists being on a roll without ever having released any single record.
She will be joined by the live act Rework. Describing their musical aesthetic as “cabaret-independent-house”, the act forged a distinct sound that combines icy minimal structures with catchy euro-girl vocals, Anglo-French funk antics and a dash of dancefloor melancholy. Darker than before, REWORK becomes more intensive. Quite different and fresh with a very own rock’n’roll attitude to bomb the dancefloors with their personal little dreams and horrors.
