Particle People::SIM::3/10:: Loco Dice, Martin Buttrich, Livio & Roby
Sound In Motion and Particle People are very proud to join forces and present a night of incredible music! Know that these two promoters plan on making this a memorable night for all, and with a lineup like the main room has, sound, lights, and atmosphere will be set accordingly.
Loco DiceEvery so often a DJ or producer comes along who inspires the collective imagination. If you’ve seen Loco Dice perform at his ten-year-long Tribehouse residency in his hometown Düsseldorf, or at DC-10 in Ibiza (from ’02-’06), you will have clicked to this. Loco Dice is someone who can puzzle together intangible moods with a direct approach. Via his DJ sets or his productions on labels like M_nus, Cadenza, Ovum, Four Twenty and Cocoon, he merges perspectives in his delicate sense for sounds and reflective atmospheres, underpinned with solid, physical grooves inspired by the hip hop that was his early sonic stomping ground in the mid- to late ‘90s. There’s something there for the dreamers, as well as for the 9-to-5ers who just want to lose everything in a moment of abandon on the dancefloor.
Martin Buttrich
Martin Buttrich has been involved in such a large number of productions since his beginnings in Hanover, Germany in 1995, it would give even the most eager of train spotters a difficult time. But by searching him on the web, you won´t be able to find much. Talking to Buttrich, however, you get the sense that he likes it that way. Shy by nature, Buttrich kept his head down working as a traditional studio producer for over a decade, producing records together with acts like Timo Maas and Loco Dice.
So what about Martin himself? In between all these amazing releases and projects he has found time to do stuff under his own name, releasing records on high profile labels such as Planet E, Cocoon and Four:Twenty, as well as putting together a live show.
The result was a string of big records including ‘Full Clip’ his remix of Tracey Thorn’s ‘It’s All True’ and most recently ‘Stoned Autopilot’ for Carl Craig’s Planet E label.
Loco Dice productions began to surface on Four:twenty and Superstar Recordings and took the dark and twisted sound developed for Timo and with Dice's influence stripped it right back to produce a fiercely isolated groove that has come to embody the dominant sound on dance floors in 2006. Loco Dice singles on Josh Wink’s Ovum, Richie Hawtin's Minus and Sven Vath's Cocoon have made Martin Buttrich and Loco Dice productions the number 1 sound right across the world and they are both on the eve of a move to New York in order to start soaking up the city's influence that they then want to translate into an album. The city also inspired Martin and Loco Dice to start their own record label and create a platform for music without blinkers. Desolat Music Group was born in 2007 and Loco Dice's mesmerizing debut "7 Dunham Place" was released in 2008.
But Martin is not only the studio wizard. You can catch him playing live in all serious clubs world wide. His live act includes laptop, several effect boxes, synthesizer and it constantly changes as it's important for Martin to act spontaneously, capture the mood of certain moments and experiment
instead of playing one hit after another.
Livio & Roby
Livio & Roby are two Romanian producers and DJs. They met in 2004, found mutual connection in their musical taste and style and joined forces to become production and DJ partners. With a great understanding of dance music and exceptional production skills they were soon making and remixing tracks on a regular basis. They produced tracks and remixes which appeared on labels such as Desolat, Cecille, Fumakilla, Junior Boy´s Own or Viva.
These two guys have made their own sound, ranging from Deep House and Tech to Detroit Techno. Their project, Monochrome, which also includes George G, brought the band both global prizes at the Heineken Music Thirst Studio Global Session competition in 2006 – The Global Winners and The People’s Choice Award. Being the Romanian winners of the local competition in 2006, 2007 got them in Las Vegas to represent their country and, of course, South Eastern Europe. Magazines like DJ Mag and Juice described their sets at Tao Beach and Tao Club as "highlights of the weekend".
In the beginning of 2008 Roby was awarded as Best Upcoming Artist at the Nights.ro Awards and Livio & Roby were awarded as the Best Producers at South Eastern Europe Music Exhibition Awards. In Romania, they started their own radio show at One FM, where they play two hours alongside their special guests.
By the end of 2007 they saw themselves "trapped" in the studio producing tracks for their first album called Monochrome - "Children of House FWD 01" [Ido Music] which was celebrated in Romania with an amazing album launch party at Studio Martin and will soon be available worldwide. After the success of that night, Studio Martin, the Bucharest legendary club, offered Livio & Roby their own monthly night, a residency that the boys decided to call „Children of House”, as the album. Meanwhile the boys also own residencies in famous clubs like La Mania on the Black Sea coast and Kristal Club in Bucharest.Beside their residencies they´re also players in some of the best known European clubs.
In 2008 they happened to play a set together with Loco Dice in Romania. He was so fascinated by their music and talent, that he decided to make them join the Artist Alife family. Thus they connected also with Desolat, where we surely will be able to hear more in the next time. Livio & Roby : Two very talented guys to keep an eye on in the future.
