  the whole biography

  In a genre seemingly obsessed with revisiting the past, Âme look firmly to the future of dance music. Driven toward continual evolution since they started making tracks in 2001, the German duo of Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer have challenged club-goers’ expectations with their conceptually driven and uniquely visceral music. Now over 15 years into their career together, their deep understanding of the clubbing landscape and each other’s strengths allows Âme to stay innovative and relevant in a swiftly paced genre. And as primary partners of the Innervisions label/collective with Dixon, the pair continue to foster the future of house with carefully selected releases, all-encompassing live events, and even their own boutique shop that solidifies the connection between the artists and their admirers. Wiedemann and Beyer first crossed paths in 2000 at the latter's record shop, Plattentasche, in their hometown of Karlsruhe. Bonding over Chicago house, Detroit techno and much else besides, the duo began producing seminal releases for Sonar Kollektiv in 2003. Eager to not repeat themselves, Âme shattered their established sound in favor of a nimble, compositional approach that birthed their club-conquering single, "Rej", and introduced them on the world stage. One could understand if Âme had just pursued the sound that brought them such acclaim. Yet the pair have never rested on their laurels, continuously folding experimental sounds and their deconstructed take on classical composition into singles and remixes built for delighting dancers. From the waltzing proto-techno of "Fiori" to ruminating deep house cut “Rrose Selavy”, they’ve made music for the mind and body with each release. Âme are also known for crafting emotional anthems, strumming at your heartstrings with their cinematic single “Tatischeff” and their glowing and nearly ubiquitous remix of “Howling”. The pair will further expand their sound on their long-awaited debut album. Âme are just as multifaceted when translated to the live arena: What you’ll hear depends on which configuration of Âme is in your city that night. Kristian is the veteran globe-trotting DJ, while Frank, more a creature of the studio, performs dynamic live sets and these days covers just as many miles. Recently the duo have intertwined their DJ and live sets as Âme II Âme, dissolving the boundaries between these formats to deliver peerless experiences that make the most of their respective abilities. Together and apart they frequent the booths and stages of the world’s top clubs and festivals, carrying the Âme sound far and wide. As the core of Innervisions alongside Dixon, the duo translate their forward-thinking approach across the collective’s various arms. The imprint is known for its rigorous quality control, releasing only a handful of records per year, each encased in sumptuous packaging featuring collaborations with established visual artists. Beyer and Dixon provide the label's A&R direction, inviting select musicians – such as veterans like Laurent Garnier, Agoria, and Marc Houle and rising stars Recondite, Rampa, and Trikk – to accompany family members Henrik Schwarz, Marcus Worgull, Tokyo Black Star, and Culoe De Song. Innervisions even handles its own physical and digital distribution, forgoing traditional channels and the pitfalls accompanying them. The group stays connected with their large fanbase with their online/brick-and-mortar shop, MTN Muting The Noise, whose tightly curated offerings of records, clothes, and other items provides the fullest expression of the Innervision aesthetic. They even take their particular perspective on the road, through both their own Temporary Secretary booking agency and their immersive Lost In A Moment parties thrown in unexpected settings. Refusing to step back from the leading-edge or compromise on their exacting standards, Âme remain at the forefront of electronic music.

  Dixon

  Berlin, Germany · 10 bookings since Sep 2023

  “As a DJ, he cuts a striking figure behind decks, rising from Berlin beginnings among the original pioneers of electronic music.”

  their own biography

  the whole biography

  As a DJ, he cuts a striking figure behind decks, rising from Berlin beginnings among the original pioneers of electronic music. Over a career, he has evolved his sound into something visionary, running renowned record label ​Innervisions with Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Rädle of Ȃme. His ear for the perfect mix eventually brought down Resident Advisor’s Top DJs Poll, after taking out first place for its last four years running. However, Dixon’s ambition has driven a calling into wider fields of fashion and technology, expanding what it means to be a contemporary innovator. Early on, a young Dixon was already remixing for the likes of Femi Kuti with his version of “Victim of Life” in 2000. His reputation as a remixer sprung out of edits hidden within his sets, adjusting tracks to give his own mixing an edge. Dixon’s edits were for himself, but became infamously in demand for friends and high profile artists, with takes on The XX’s “Tides” and Disclosure’s “Boiling” in 2013. Major recognition came in 2017 when Depeche Mode asked him to remix their iconic anthem “Cover Me”, and the following year reworking LCD Soundsystem’s “i used to”. Recently, Dixon’s 2019 interpretation of Kelsey Lu’s “Why Knock For You” revealed his genre-bending take on today’s dance music. Translating this view into running ​Innervisions​ earned success from creating constellations within the label’s universe. To distribute their carefully crafted sound, ​Muting The Noise​ came to be in 2010. Dixon remains key in their music selection, always saving unreleased tracks to bump his own sets above the rest. Throwing parties from ​Innervisions’​ essence led to ​Lost In A Moment​ forming as an events agency. Leaving no trace behind, offbeat locations are prioritised as the backdrop for the label’s otherworldly showcases. ​To gather other like-minded artists, a booking agency ​Temporary Secretary was born in 2017, where Dixon still sits among an impressive roster of talent. However, his holistic interest in nightlife culture meant pushing the clubbing envelope further. In 2017, he co-founded fashion label ​Together We Dance Alone​, with its creative director Ana Ofak​. ​The brand’s vision translates clubwear into the digital age and gazes at a future melded with machines. All designs are co-created with collaborators and friends in unique capsule drops, linked by the core concept of layering. Dixon’s fashion conscience has since synced up with some of the best in the industry. He was asked to provide soundtracks for four seasons of Riccardo Tisci’s ​Givenchy​ runway shows and in 2018 was handpicked as a muse for Virgil Abloh’s first season of Louis Vuitton’s Men’s. In 2018 Dixon even caught the eye of video game giant ​Rockstar. ​A 3D-mapped Dixon mixed his way into the ​Grand Theft Auto V ​2018 expansion pack ​GTA Online: After Hours. ​Sparking his interest in the digital, he became the first of four DJs to enter virtual reality for players to choose as a soundtrack to their online nightclub. With these projects building up a layered approach to clubbing, Dixon set to work on his technology platform ​Transmoderna i​ n 2019​. ​Its concept co-exists as a physical and digital space for music, art, fashion, technology and club culture to overlap. Now, as an established sphere for creatives of mixed disciplines, ​Transmoderna​ has moved its Ibiza event space from ​Pacha Ibiza​ to ​DC-10​. Amidst COVID-19, ​Transmoderna’s​ online persona expanded with an immersive mixed reality stream for Boiler Room, with Dixon now set to take the venture even further into undefined club territory online. Using music to melt through other art forms, Dixon’s strength is found in his transcendent dancefloor moments. Echoed in a flawless aesthetic, his performances feel both safe and unpredictable, with this singular sense of balance seeing his global appeal widen year after year.

  their own biography

  the whole biography

  Jimi Jules is an international multi-Instrumentalist and producer, dedicating his successful career and education to the house and techno scene. Devoted to club culture having played over the world for 20 years, Jimi Jules is currently signed to renowned Berlin-based label Innervisions and collaborative booking agency Temporary Secretary. Besides, he collectively continually works with Defected Records, Innervisions, Zukunft, Watergate, Rumpelmusig, Hive Audio and Rebirth. Continuously on an exploration to push the boundaries and create new sound within the genre, most recently Jules was awarded a silver disk marking 200,000 sales of the 2020 track “Pushin On” released on Defected. No doubt a unique character within the music scene, Jimi Jules is well-known for his multidisciplinary approach having completed his master’s degree in music at the acclaimed University of Arts in Zurich. A descendant from a tribe of Caribbean voodoo-sorcerers and a Swiss farmer, Jimi Jules believes every little piece or second can turn into an inspiration moment: his children, family and friends to people watching from a bench and listening to the same drum loop for four hours. From The Grand Factory in Beirut to Brooklyn Mirage in New York (with every renowned club across the world in between) Jimi Jules orchestrates and conducts a club filled with thousands with the same force and energy as an intimate studio session, working alone or with other producers and musicians to discover new forms of music and sound. E​​ndeavoring to blur the worlds of sound and art through the interplay of collaboration, Jimi Jules cites Dixon, Joy Tyson and Tugg the Dummer as creative partners as well as most recently working with multidisciplinary London creative Trevor Jackson to produce radically bold and innovative visuals and artwork to compliment the sound. A mentor, innovator and learner spanning the entirety of club culture and beyond. Jimi Jules’ second album titled “+” will be released on Innervisions,in 2022. The eleven track release available digitally and on vinyl was developed in Zurich and co-produced by Dixon, exploring the trauma of togetherness yet looks forward to a future aligned on positive thoughts and freedom. Better Together Forever!

  Trikk

  their own biography

  the whole biography

  Behind the name lies a humble (foremost) producer and DJ; someone who has made his mark through a careful selection of labels: Innervisions, Lossless and Optimo Music most prominently. Trikk’s reputation is one of an artist who pays acute attention to detail across every avenue - although this has resulted in a smaller production catalogue, it has gained mighty respect from fellow DJs and music lovers - dancefloors and beyond, all over. Such noted respect has been the result of continuously solid output across his releases. The success of ‘Proto Rhyt’ (Lossless, 2016) and his ‘Florista’ EP (Innervisions, 2016) paved way for even more accolades with his first double EP, ‘Mundo Ritual’ (Innervisions, 2017). Here Trikk was, for the first time, able to extensively unleash his no holds barred approach to music: a somewhat unconventional and contemporary mixture of tribal accents, big synths and dramatic flourishes; this combination was an unapologetically fresh and exciting contribution to the scene. This triple-dose of solid output, paid with Trikk’s extended (and now yearly traditional) ‘Mundo Ritual’ mix series, further bolstered his status as a core member of the Innervisions family. Here, he bonded with the label’s co-founder Dixon, resulting in them co-producing a rework of Keope ‘The Canary Inukh’ (Bigamo Musik, 2020). Focusing on today, the release of Trikk’s anticipated album is gently bubbling onto the surface of the musical stratosphere. Much like his multifaceted music, lies a multifaceted identity. Musically, his sound reflects a diverse background inspired by both music and upbringing. Crossing borders from Porto to Berlin via London - paired with his father’s Mozambican heritage - has formed plenty of experience through these different cultures. Throwing into the mix favourite bands being Cabaret Voltaire and Throbbing Gristle, this has driven a multi-coloured identity; Trikk’s stamp on sound is almost hard to defy, and yet, seems all so recognisable across a wide breadth of dancefloors which embrace his presence. Indeed, for those who have embraced his presence on the dancefloor, they are sure to agree that his motto subconsciously resonates with time being an illusion. Trikk is an effortless purveyor of the elongated build-up, bringing melodic vibrancy and intensity into the smallest of moments - often leaving the listener stopping in their tracks, until the peak strikes full force. Tension, and release: helping to capture all those wandering souls and moulding them together as one. Getting his start at LuxFrágil (Lisbon), later playing at Robert Johnson (Offenbach) and at Sónar/OFFSónar (Barcelona), Trikk has been fully educated with plenty of experiences which have shaped him as he stands today. Yet, his mentality that music unites us as one - and helps us to release - is the core mantra which inspires him to always aim to do better than his last endeavour: always delving into the finite detail and concentrating on improving even the smallest aspect. The dedication to his art form lies in how he takes himself out of the context and places his core perspectives on those opposite him. Much like his own private character, Trikk likes to keep his social media presence to a minimum - you’ll see no clickbait or anything sensationalised, keeping in line with his honest aura. Rightly so, this leaves more emphasis on the most important thing - his music, thus bringing a deeper connection to all followers through the virtual world. Whilst logically speaking, complexity and simplicity are two states of motion which don’t stand together, Trikk breaks this barrier - blending boundaries to lands far and wide.
