British Techno giant Perc (Perc Trax, Electric Deluxe) is back to Belgrade on January 11th. With his uncompromising and unique sound, Perc will be playing in the main room of Belgradeâs Techno cathedral Drugstore. Expect a night of proper electronic music, with a local support from Oneiric (Mihajlo & Mudrost) presenting their hybrid set, and intro set from talented artist from PanÄevo, Dno Mora. Tickets on presale now via Gigstix network.
Perc is one of electronic dance musicâs reference points: an internationally touring DJ, label owner and one of the most respected producers in techno today. Known as one of the most forward-thinking individuals in techno Perc (aka London based Ali Wells) fuses current sounds with his extensive knowledge of electronic musicâs past to create something new & unique. A regular artist on such scene-leading labels as CLR, Kompakt, Drumcode, Stroboscopic Artefacts and Ovum as well as his own world-reknown Perc Trax imprint, Perc is as uncompromising as he is unique.
As a DJ, Perc has taken to the decks across the world in seminal clubs such like Berghain, Fabric, Cocoliche in Buenos Aires, Space Ibiza, Tresor, Unit in Tokyo and many more. His sound is a fusion of the cream of current techno mixed with choice selections from electronic musicâs forefathers.
Production-wise the last few years can be described in two words ‘Wicker & Steel’ – the title of Perc’s debut album, released on Perc Trax in June of 2011 and which has lifted him to a new level of respect and recognition.
In the last year Perc has diversified with remixes for Factory Floor on DFA, Black Asteroid on Electric Deluxe, Mike Parker on Edit Select and Oscar Mulero on Warm-Up, plus two EPs; the searing statement of intent that is âA New Brutalityâ on Perc Trax and Guardian single of the week âPure & Simpleâ on Sleaze. This coupled with his busiest ever year of gigs including debut appearances in Argentina, Australia, Singapore and Finland has meant his sound is better known and more influential than ever before.
