In today's fast-paced culture of opportunism and ambition, you seldom meet an individual with remarkable abilities and a storied history of achievements concurrently anchored in humility. Thus, the virtuoso known as GE-OLOGY is a rare find indeed. During the 80's, the young Baltimore native eventually relocated to New York City, where his multi-dimensional talent was destined to ripen with opportunities that continue to ensue globally. This masterful music producer, exceptionally skilled DJ, and equally gifted visual artist has been acclaimed for over two decades, however he remains somewhat of a mystery. Over the course of his career, he's worked with the likes of Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Jill Scott, De La Soul, Yukimi Nagano (Little Dragon), Jem and even a young Tupac Shakur. After years of producing dominantly hip-hop tempo releases, he defiantly returned in 2015 with the dance floor monster "Moon Circuitry" featuring Mark de Clive-Lowe (his debut single on Theo Parrish's esteemed Sound Signature imprint). It was received in high regard as perhaps one of the top releases of the year in the underground dance music scene (instituting anticipation for his full-length LP scheduled to be released later this year). Although his roots in composing 4-on-the-floor dance tempo music dates as far back as his earliest hip-hop beats, this seemingly "new" direction boldly challenged expectations based on his previous body of work. Yet to the contrary, his very first production appearance came in the form of a collaboration with the Baltimore-based house music legends, The Basement Boys, who used one of his tracks for their 'Those Guys' moniker in 1993. Collecting records from the age of 5, playing instruments from age 9, and DJing since the age of 11...his relationship with music has been a lifelong journey of unyielding education & exploration. There's something very personal, intimate and risky in his approach to playing records that you don't often experience in today's DJ sets. Traveling across continents with selects from his carefully curated vinyl collection, he digs deep, weaving diverse genres that seamlessly coalesce to bring dance floors to life. ■

“Session Victim are one of Germanys most prolific and accomplished house music production duos today.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Session Victim are one of Germanys most prolific and accomplished house music production duos today. They are deeply embedded in vinyl culture and hold a considerable number of pinball highscores in and around Berlin. As composers, Hauke Freer and Matthias Reiling have been building an unmatched body of work over the last decade, most notably three genre definingtriple LPs on the british dance music connoisseur label Delusions of Grandeur, the highly acclaimed downbeat concept album 'Needledrop' for the beloved Late Night Tales/ Night Time Stories record label as well as more than twenty EPs on vinyl-only imprints like Retreat, XK, or Pen & Paper, and most recently the highly acclaimed EPs "Basic Instinct" on Rhythm Section and "The Intangibles" back on Delusions Of Grandeur again, featuring the massively rinsed dancefloor tunes "Trying To Make It Home" and "Motivation" respectively. There's a devotion and passion about the self proclaimed Two Man House Band and their quest for getting themselves and everyone else into "the zone" that is simply as exciting as it is rarely seen today. 2023 sees them return to NIGHT TIME STORIES with their fifth studio album "low key, low pressure", a refreshing anathema to today’s fast paced, industry driven musical landscape. A highly textured and emotionally dense longplayer by two master beatsmiths who have lots to share and little to prove.
