About Me |
|
Offkey's head honcho Raiden has been one of the most groundbreaking artists in drum and bass for the past 7 years. His massive anthem on Renegade Hardware 'Fallin' was followed by a prolific release schedule before he decided to take complete artistic control over his career and launch Offkey. Heavily influenced by the cold hipnotism of early Techno music, his mission has been to bring that icy atmosphere into his DJ sets and productions, resulting in the birth of what people refer to now as techno drum and bass. In constant demand for remix work, he gave a brand new take on DK8's Murder was the bass and Human Resources's Dominator, before releasing one of the most exciting records of 2005, Machinesoul with Propaganda, setting the standard for techno dnb ever since. Raiden also discovered and brought through new artists that he felt had the potential to do something exciting with the sound and created what is now the well known Offkey family which includes such luminaries as the Sect, Propaganda and Proket. Mr OffKey has collaborated with many of Drum and Bass finest artists, such as his good friends Dylan and The Panacea. He has regularly released records with Labels such as Position Chrome, Freak and his own OffKey imprint. Raiden's hectic international DJ schedule has taking him to all four corners of the world many times over and has regularly performed at many of the worlds top clubs such as the Liquid rooms in Japan and the End in London. Recently he has been steadily working on his debut LP Chernobyl Heart, scheduled for the end of april, the 22nd anniversary of the disaster with Profits going to UNISEF for the kids of Chernobyl fund. Inspired by the aftermath of the disaster, this LP is not to be a collection of drum and bass dancefloor tunes, but a musical representation of the tragedy and its after effects, the kind of project that only someone with the insight and artistry of Raiden can deliver. His other current main project is collaborating with well respected Techno artist Dean Rodell, under the moniker Dying Punks with a planned LP for 2008. This has already resulted in the first real crossover compositions between the two genres, and has also inspired Raiden to give up DJing and concentrate on a Live performance. Expect mind bending loop based layering from all areas of electronic music, crafted and manipulated Live. This set really needs to be heard to be believed, as it blows standard turntable mixing out of the water. The live set allows remixing, eq control, filtering and virtually every production technique available in the studio to be manipulated on the fly. With so many exciting plans in the pipeline, you know that despite the impressive stamp Raiden has already made on electronic music, the best is yet to come.
