06 feat. Trentemøller
Apr 18
@ Live & Bar Onzieme, Osaka
On April 18th, Onzieme will be graced by Trentemøller, one of the most outstanding producers from Copenhagen in Denmark. Making great tracks for almost a decade, his first EP Le Champagne became one of the biggest underground tunes in 2003. He has also released a few records on Steve Bug’s Porka Flat record label, but he really hit the big time with a series of stunning remixes of Norwegian electric duo Royksopp, Moby and Yoshimoto to name but a few. His productions are usually “electro-y” or super downtempo, but he does play bouncy dance tunes when it comes to DJ-ing. Let’s see what he brings out of his music box.
Time: 9pm • Guest DJs: Trentemøller, Aldrin.
DJs: Mike Mackenna, Kenji Marui, Koichi Sato, Kiccolee
