Wolfgang

Wolfgang is a name synonymous with music, the famous compser Wolfang Amedueas Motzart. A name with it origins in Europe, it conjours up images of rolling forest ridden hills with pointy Germanic castle on the horizon. What also springs to mind is a man who is very pale, with a mole on his face and an almost parlimentry wig...exactly the opposite to Wolfgang Gartner.

With his origin firmly rooted to the North of America, in Austin, Texas, this techno/electro producer who has emerged over the past 12 months is putting out some belting tracks on his Kindergraten label. I have chosen him as my featured artist this week as he seems to conform to electro producers before him yet adds a new more techy edge. The track that showcases this perfectly is:

Wolfgang Gartner - Flashback (320kbps)

With it escilatting synth and basic drum beat it lures you in, in a club, crescendoing into a funky little drum nugget, then wow it hits you. The bass hook and synth layered on top of one another and a repetitive vocal make this a prime time dance floor bomb! I know it may be a few months old but what a tune! (for other releases Wolfgang on Beatport)

Wolfgang has been knocking on the door of greatness for just over 15 years now starting production at the age of just 11. If it takes me as long to create such great music then expect somethings when im 36 or in 2024...

Being based in North America the majority of his gigs are over there, but there is on gig of his soon in Ibiza. If you are lucky enough to be there on your jollys this summer, he plays Es Paradis on 13th August.
