We're thrilled to be bringing out Karl Meier all the way from Chicago to play a set for us. Karl is a serious head that knows his music, so much so that we're making an exception to our strictly vinyl guideline for him! He'll be joined by David Siska, 1/2 of the excellent Chicago radio show turned podcast Sonic Sunset, where you can expect to hear "deep new sounds alongside timeless classics – from techno, electro, detroit/chicago house, soundtrack atmospheres, underground disco machine funk and weird nu-wave / italo / funk / soul dusties that slipped through the cracks of time".
KARL MEIER bio...
A life-long devotee of electronic and experimental music, Karl P. Meier discovered Chicago House and Detroit Techno in the early nineties, and the rest, as they say, is boring. Determined to prove that dance music could be serious artform, and more than just escapist fare, he developed a dj-ing style (opening for artists such as Surgeon, Monolake, and Jeff Mills) that looks to the future while being influenced by the music of the past, exploring the grey area between the physical and the cerebral and focusing on dynamism, subversion, and recontextualization. Karl's most current release, a collaboration with Jonathan "Stave" Krohn under the name Talker, appears on the forthcoming Downwards 20th anniversary compilation, alongside tracks from the likes of Regis, Anthony Child (Surgeon), and others.
