"Straight up no-messing techno that hooks us in and transports us to the Amnesia dance floor where we wait for the bass to kick and the CO2 blasts to take our heads off!" Those are the words of Richie Hawtin. He’s talking ab0ut techno’s most engaging new talent, Joop Junior, and of course he is a man who knows. As such it’s no surprise the Minus boss has snapped up the Dutchman when Joop was only 21, and released two of his tracks on the label’s New Horizons compilation in 2012, as well as the Sonus.1 EP in 2013.
His Itanimulli EP, on Dubfire’s equally influential SCI+TEC label, followed that landmark release. The reason? Joop Junior’s music is all carefully sculpted from scratch, with every sound synthesized by the Hague man with gorgeous synthetic textures, uplifting rhythms and plenty of the elegance associated with the best minimal has to offer. It’s moody and atmospheric music that transports you to another realm entirely and earlier releases have been supported by the likes of Adam Beyer, Umek and John Digweed.
In the club Joop Junior deals exclusive in live shows. They help him transmit his message in the most personal way possible and see him working sounds into his own unique and exceptional sonic tapestries. He plays at esteemed places like London’s EGG, Air in Amsterdam plus festivals like Awakenings and Metropolis as well as many other cities around the world, sometimes alongside the Minus and SCI+TEC bosses that have been quick to showcase their man to the world. Now he is here, he has plenty to say and an ever-larger audience of people who are desperate to listen in.
We’re also joined by some of your favorite DJs, Slowmance boss, bearded baron of good vibes, Raz, Yoshinaga, the jefe of Asian Vibes, Yellow’s daddy Ben Huang, a very respected grandmaster in China’s dance music scene, a home-grown techno and house DJ who's built a successful career over the past 20 years playing everywhere from festivals to huge corporate events while maintaining his credibility.
“没有繁琐但有勾引性的Techno，当我们在Amnesia舞池里听见他第一个bass时,就感觉被CO2狠狠的轰炸了我们的灵魂，真的High暴了!” 这就是电子音乐圈具有影响力的大师Richie Hawtin所给这位新人Joop Junior的评价。因此Richie Hawtin也就是Minus 老板,把这位当时只有21岁的荷兰小伙子签下 ，并在2012年发行了两首单曲以及2013年的Sonus.1 EP。
自Minus发行他的单曲后，Joop Junior又得到Dubfire的青睐。同年2013年，Dubfire在管理的厂牌SCI+TEC也发行了Joop Junior另一张EP《Itanimulli》。Dubfire说道：“Joop Junior的音乐都是从零开始精心雕刻的，每一个华丽的声音合成，都令人有着振奋的节奏。”Joop Junior这带有情绪和大气的音乐，将我们送到了另一个境界，他在2013年发行的最新单曲也得到Adam Beyer, Umek, John Digweed等重量级DJ、制作人的支持与喜爱。
在表演方面，Joop Junior是一位独特的现场表演者，他以最独特的个人方式把他音乐传达给听众们。曾经在世界很多著名俱乐部和音乐节里传达他个人音乐信息，如：伦敦的EGG，阿姆斯特丹的Air，Awakenings 和 Metropolis音乐节等等，他都有上佳的表现，受到众多乐迷的青睐。Joop Junior即将来到中国，在Arkham上海将成为他个人在中国首演，他有很多信息要用音乐的形式传达，你们准备好要与FOOTPRINT一起聆听了吗？
同样你我最喜爱的DJ也会加入这场热闹的派对, Slowmance掌门人, 气氛保障者胡须男爵Raz；Asian Vibes首脑 Yoshinaga. 还有Ben Huang, 在过去20多年的大型商业合作和音乐节演出商建立了可靠的口碑, 中国电音界备受尊敬的大师级人物鼎力相助。
