You all know we love a bit of 303 in The Temple of Gnostic Sonics on a Saturday night. And this year we bring you the master of the modern Acid scene!
Over the last decades the man born Johannes Auvinen has explored an ever evolving sound palette that touches on house, techno and ambient.
Most recently the California born producer and live act has been responsible for reinvigorating the acid scene with his unique and cerebral manipulations of real Roland 303s. His tracks have been laced with slow and subtly shifting patterns that are infused with a very real machine soul and exude captivating warmth.
This modern acid master plays live on 303s, 707s and plenty more bits of hardware, always creating textured soundtracks on the fly using a range of FX and skills built up over the last decade. He never fails to make people dance to his beat whether he’s playing festivals in Japan, influential clubs in Europe or dirty back rooms across America and puts most similar acts to shame.
