Lördag den 12 April så har GUIDELINES bokat en av de största inom techno. Dj ROLANDO A.K.A. Aztec Mystic, Los Hermanos (UR/Detroit) kommer till Guidelines som för kvällen flyttar till Restaurang Fleming (Klara Sjö), Flemingatan 2-4.
På det mindre golvet kommer Kaah Soundsystem att hålla till och innan Rolando spelar DJ J-OL (Bang the party, Guidelines) och D´MALICIOUS (Wave, Guidelines)

Rolando är inte bara en grym dj, utan även en av de främsta producenterna i världen just nu. Det är då inte så konstigt att hans låt ”Knights Of The Jaguar” blev framröstad till århundradets danslåt i England. Han ger ut musik under ett flertal namn på världens främsta technobolag, Underground Resistance som även de har sitt högsäte i Detroit.


OM ROLANDO
aka Rolando Rocha aka The Aztek Mystic
Born in the 1970's in southwest Detroit, he grew up in the Hispanic district heavily influenced by his cultural latin rhythms and percussion. Encouraged from an early age by his musician father, he pursued his own interest in music and became well known and respected within the community. It was later when he heard Jeff Mills as "The Wizard" that he discovered the innovative sounds of techno. Through a mutual friend he was introduced to "Mad" Mike Banks and promptly became a member of the enigmatic Underground Resistance crew. Soon his first opportunity came to cross the Atlantic and his speedy proficiency on the turntables wowed audiences worldwide earning him respect and notoriety within the industry as a whole. Jaguar although not Rolando's first release on UR turned perceptions of techno on their head, breaking into other genres of dance music and becoming a classic in the boxes of dj's such as Tenaglia, Morillo, Oakenfold and Giles Peterson. With the ensuing battle against corporate goliath's Sony - the battle was morally won by sheer determination of the small independent label and the steadfast support of fans worlwide. Now alongside partner Gerald Mitchell the launch of a new label "Los Hermanos" Rolando has entered an exciting new phase as a producer and remixer.
