For VIP tables call 415 996 9822 Biography Since his childhood, he has been exploring various musical registers, merging and composing them according to his mood. His piano knowledge confers him a musical culture as well as an artistic ease that help him when working on his different projects (jazz, classic, film music and more recently electronic music).<\/p>\n His influences as varied as surprising, such as Erik Satie, Trent Reznor, Thomas Newman, Avishai Cohen, Jay Dilla, Herbie Hancock, Ricardo Villalobos, Tigran Hamasyan, Trentemoller, but also a lot of oriental musicians, represent an inexhaustible source of inspiration for this artist who started electronic music at the age of 13.<\/p>\n After several years building his own experience in different Parisian night clubs, he co-founded in 2009 the french collective Minimal Trip. He actively participates in promoting young and talented international artists by inviting them to Paris for their very first performance. Raising more and more attention, this collective gives Viken Arman the opportunity to demonstrate his vast talent during each one of his live performance.

\nMadmotormiquel… First things frst: Try pronouncing that. Or maybe don’t \u2013 it’s all about the music after all.Born and raised in west Berlin Michel Neigenfnd \u2013 what his parents named him \u2013 had only music and collecting records on his mind from an early age. Influenced by British \u201a77 punk- rock and US punk from the late 80ies he soon realised musical boundaries were nothing for him. His equally large passion for hip-hop paved the way to frst electronic productions. Big beat, drum \u201an\u2018 bass, acid techno, early spiral tribe stuff…His frst fusion festival in early 2000 as well as many illegal open airs and parties in a Berlin flled with open spaces after the fall of the wall, made clear the path he would take. Up until then a party DJ with diverse genres, his passion for techno\/house music steadily grew. Through own events with Bachstelzen, a collective of organisers that has greatly influenced Berlin\u2018s party scene with its events in elaborately themed off-locations, the course was set for frequent techno\/house DJ gigs.In 2006 his own productions started gathering appeal on different netlabels followed by the frst real release together with Sebo and Nayan Soukie on Sasse\u2018s label Mood Music in 2010.Following further releases, the Boys Don\u2018t Eat EP on Katermukke brought a frst taste of international success with high placings on the Beatport techhouse charts (4. and 17.), as well as regular airplay on national and international radio. John Digweed even signed two tracks from the URSL 08 (Everything Will Change EP) and re-released them on his extremely successful Live In London mix.Further productions for Canadian, US and British labels followed as well as several releases on German labels.The steadily growing success of the URSLRecords label which Madmotormiquel has been running together with Sebo and Soukie & Windish since 2010, has been a continuing reason for being booked way beyond the boundaries of Berlin. Two Brazil tours, gigs all over Europe \u2013 over a hundred in 2012, productions which regularly feature in charts of notable Djs such as Martin Landsky, Tim Green, Tube & Berger, Robosonic and Dirty Dor\u0308 ing leave the undoubtable impression somebody knows what he\u2018s doing. In the studio as well as behind the decks.

\nStavroz was formed in 2011 by IJsbrand & Gert, both dj\u2019s and sound engineers looking for a way to channel their musical antics. Soon thereafter, Maxim & Pieter joined on live shows and in the studio. Their first EP release \u201cThe Ginning\u201d was picked up on international blogs, resulting the highest position on the Hype Machine and was chosen vinyl of the month by the German \u2018Faze Magazine\u2019. Back home in Belgium, they were awarded second best breakthrough artist, coming in just after Oscar & The Wolf.
\nKnown for injecting an overall ethnic, acoustic and organic vibe to electronic music, these four friends pocketed releases for Kindisch, Laut & Luise, Bedrock and their own label \u2018Moodfamily\u2019 in Ghent. Their intimate live set and unique dj sets were quickly picked up, sending them on regular trips abroad. Only to return home for some Fifa and their weekly show on Belgian National alternative radio \u2018Studio Brussel\u2019 where they display an uncanny ability to combine the old with the new and the East with the West. Their acclaimed latest release \u201cTalabout\u201d brings you where no one ever goes to, a destination unreachable by common means, but a place blurring the lines between having a dream and a state of mind. Welcome to Talabout.
\nStavroz manage to create a wholesome, comforting soundtrack for a place, which no words can describe. Take a rest, lay down, close your eyes and listen to a story told in an orchestral fashion, with such profession and ear for details. Stavroz is something different.
