LEGOWELT THE RETURN OF LEGOWELT!!! For anyone who missed out on our Clone party, here's one more chance to enjoy the West Coast sounds of Holland transported to New York!
Legowelt began producing music in the early 90s while coming into sporadic contact with the sounds of Detroit's Underground Resistance, Model 500, Blake Baxter and Chicago heroes such as Farley Jackmaster Funk, Armando Gallop and Mr. Fingers. Later on this palette of influences grew with early Mu-Ziq, Aphex Twin, Drexciya, various stuff from The Irdial Discs label and virtually every type of freaked deep music he could get his hands on. But nothing had quite the influence as when, also in the early 90s, he first heard a band called 'Unit Moebius' on Dutch radio. A punky palette of raw freaked out lo-fi chicago trax and deep detroit jams made with machines which were 'found next to the garbage can'. Shocked and in awe he heard that this music came out of The Hague, Holland - the very same city he lived in! Put on the right track by this fact he stumbled into the Bunker Records office and discoverd a world of contemporary autistic freaked music lovers who looked beyond all the bland house and dance music that ruled the media and clubs. Musical mentors such as IF and Melvin White (aka pametex) lectured him with even more unknown sounds such as early electro and the obscure pre-1983 Italian disco whose production secrets were closely studied. In 1998 Bunker released the first vinyl of Legowelt : Pimpshifter, a 6 track mingled Italo-Chicago combination which became an instant cult hit with tracks such as 'Stumvogel' and 'Total Pussy Control'. Apart from producing from deep inside his synth-filled Dutch studio, Legowelt has been playing live all over the world for the last decade. Official site: http://www.xs4all.nl/~awolfe
