Haito

HAITO GÖPFRICH Haito – the man of innumerable faces and the Doctor Mabuse of German dance-floors.

He got hooked by the eclectic early DJ-work of Hans Nieswandt and Eric D. Clark, well-trained on Berlin’s Loveparade vehicles, pressed into vinyl by most different labels such as Boxer, get Physical, Kickboxer, Malatoid, Spagat, Low Spirit or Acker Record to name a few... Well, this is our hero, up to every trick, well-versed producer and Vinyl-DJ. And that’s why Haito keeps his lines open all the time, gathers input like other people stamps and nonchalantly combines seemingly incoherent sounds. Yet as a gifted acoustic juggler, he always manages to land on all fours like a cat. This guy is definitely not afraid of heights because he’s got the best protection pad ever: skills.

Which he obviously used to produce “Fiat Lux!” – the multiplex among the debut albums. In a colourful, thrilling and pictorial way, Haito tells us his stories from the club and turns out to be a real master of dramaturgy. “Es werde Licht (Let there be light)” represents not only the light that projects celluloid onto the screen, but also the start for a more than diversified round dance of styles, genres, ideas, sounds and beats. All at full-length and in a highly entertaining format.
