2014.02.16 DANIEL BORTZ (Suol) @ House of Moments
Platform, Night Vision and Undercurrent has come together for the first time to bring you -
✧ DANIEL BORTZ
[Suol/Augsberg]
Daniel Bortz has an infallible knack for reducing things down to the nitty-gritty; to constantly limit elements to their bare minimum, even if nowadays ‘minimal’ is considered an absolute no-no. But none of that bothers the Augsburg musician much; he is just as aware of his special status in the close- knit Bavarian scene as he is of the sceptical gloom-and-doom prophecies of Berlin’s music buffs: “Since 2007 I’ve been hosting a monthly party series in Augsburg with Forza Electronica. While being a music producer here has its challenges, I don’t just want to play for those in the know. I like appealing to a mixed audience that doesn’t mind if I occasionally play a slower track or a song by Whitney Houston or Phoenix. I feel very much at home in Bavaria. You’re kind of left to your own devices here, but through that you assume a neutral position. It feels more free and independent than being constantly associated with certain scenes or certain people”. So the MPC guru continues his journey through his very own sound universe, releasing any material he feels is right, and, at the same time, revering his old heroes Matthew Herbert and Daniel Bell. These two old masters likewise shunned scenes and dogmas, an attitude that sets from apart from run-of-the-mill hitmakers, who crank out the next short-lived club hype.
