Simon Beeston Bio:

Auckland is the biggest city in New Zealand, with a million residents and two beautiful coastlines. The city is dominated by its harbour, its volcanic peaks, and wide open sky that brings all kinds of weather. Simon Beeston hails from this place in the deep south, but now calls Berlin home. Drawn by his love of electronic dance music and the cities unique feeling of creativity and musical passion, Berlin seemed an obvious choice for an artist whose ambitions aim well beyond the South Pacific.

While living and working in China, Simon was so disturbed by the lack of quality music in clubs that he started playing it himself. After moving back to New Zealand he discovered his friends had also developed a passion for house and techno music and got together to promote a series of parties and club nights with a focus on quality music and DJ's unwilling to compromise their musical tastes.

Simon first came to Berlin in 2004 to play gigs in various clubs, including a set at the original Tresor. He returned to play New Years Eve 2005, and made the move to Berlin permanently in 2006. The unique party culture and the vast array of musical expression in the city are a huge inspiration to any artist and Simon Beeston is no exception. You can often find him dancing near the front of the club until the last record spins!

Simon has been producing music for seven years and continues to push his sound in new directions. Influenced by house, techno and minimal, it would be difficult to put his music into any one category, but his tracks always have both feet on the dance floor , an irresistible groove and a unique array of samples and sounds. As a DJ Simon plays a bionic, club moving mix of tech house, techno, and house, full of subtle musical hooks and crunchy percussion. His innate ability to program a set from peak time to rolling grooves never fails to keep dancers on the floor.

After a busy year in 2008 with successful releases on District of Corruption, Highgrade Digital and Bond Records, Simon is now set for a bright future as a permanent member of the Highgrade Records artist roster.



Systematic Sessions mit Ekkohaus

In den Systematic Session begrüßt uns heute der Grieche Kostas Tassopoulos auch bekannt unter dem Synonym Ekkohaus. Seine dunklen und tiefe (dark and deep :) Produktionen zwischen House und Techno sind Markenzeichen und sollen auch heute nicht zu kurz kommen.

Ekkohaus was born in Greece where he started to “bang the drum”. There he received his first lessons in piano and later won a scholarship in an orchestra percussion course (early nineties). He studied vibraphone and marimba but after a few years of practice he realised that classical education was missing a very important ingredient, so he went looking for it......

He bought his first Roland drum machine and a cheap synthesizer and soon was transferring midi data between the 2 devices. In the late nineties, he was introduced to computer music and nowadays he combines software and hardware equipment for his production and live performances.

In 2002, Ekkohaus moved in London where he studied music technology (LCMM) and worked in a famous art gallery for 4 years. There, he settled in the East part of London, and mixed with a variety of cultures, individuals, music directions and fresh sounds… In 2008 he decided to move to Berlin and focus in the thing he loves most....music....

He has recently started his own night there, "strictly no dancing", a night that focuses in the art of listening and experiencing music. …. Ekkohaus has been spinning records since 2002 (resident at hobo and babalu, in Greece) and playing live since 2006..... His live sets are a mix of house grooves, dubby bass, quirky vocal samples and minimal structures.... His djing is very diversed also, like a glimpse of the future through a journey in the past....a sort of...time travelling experience....

The last few years Ekkohaus has been releasing his music in various labels (Morris Audio, Cargo Edition, Safari electronique, 2020 Vision, Multi vitamins, Level, Brut and more....).

Although Ekkohaus is not a religious person, he is said to be member of a secret cult that claims to be in search of the magic loop, an ecstatic situation created by the monotonous repetition of a specific frequency or rhythmic sequence, whisper , rain etc.



Bryzant Radio Show mit Christian Fischer und Bruno Morphet!

Christian Fischer präsentiert heute das Set von Bruno Morphet "Live @ Distillery Lepizig".Weiterhin gibt es ein Interview mit Bruno Morphet. - Seid gespannt!

Bruno Morphet:

Überraschungsmomente also und eine rigorose Energie also, die Genregrenzen und Hörgewohnheiten verschiebt, dürfen wir nach eigener Aussage vom Südafrikaner Bruno Morphet erwarten. Seit Mitte der 1990er gestaltet er die elektronische Musikszene in Kapstadt mit.

Während er sich zunächst im Deep House tummelte, erwischte auch ihn irgendwann die Minimal-Welle, die von Europa herüber schwappte und sicher auch nicht ganz unschuldig an der Kollaboration mit Ivan war – Killer Robot wurde geboren. Killer Robot ist seitdem mehr als eine Club Night. Bruno und Ivan schufen mit Killer Robot eine Plattform für südafrikanische und internationale Künstler, die hier Freitag für Freitag ihreSets präsentieren, von Butane bis Bodycode, von Kompakt bis M_Nus, Killer Robot wurde zu Südafrikas offenem Kanal für den elektronischen Underground und gibt den Clubbern die Möglichkeit, Künstler zu erleben, für die sie sonst, um sie zu sehen, eine Überseereise unternehmen müssten.

Wir haben Bruno Morphet ein Schiff gechartert, mit dem er an diesem Abend sicher im Hafen der Distillery anlegen wird. Das bedeutet für Euch die seltene Gelegenheit, einen Killer-Robot hautnah zu erleben – mit all seiner Macht und Magie. Ihm zur Seite stehen Definition-Labelchef Christian Fischer und die Hallenser Phonkstar.
