JOIN USSocial X Slick' is presenting 'Fort Romeau and TechNomads' at Koramangala Social on December 8, 8 pm onwards
'Fort Romeau's sophomoric 2015 LP 'Insides', released by Ghostly International, was inspired by an eclectic mixture of house, kraut, ambient and techno, and showed a further development of his unique take on dance floor music.
His love for music and record collecting goes back much further. As a child he would join his father, an avid vinyl collector on journeys to record fairs and jumble sales, digging every weekend from the age of eight. And so it was quite natural that the collector became the DJ and the listener became the musician.
The past few years have seen him play all over the world, from Mexico's beaches to Tokyo and regularly at some of Europe's most revered club spaces. 2015 saw him set up his own label 'Cin Cin' releasing split EPs from established names and newcomers alike, with a diverse musical policy that reflects the DJ/producer's open minded and inquisitive approach.
'TechNomads' music is all about cold mid-tempo cuts meeting minimalist bass lines, deep house grooves meeting dark melodies. Their sonic schemes are non-intrusive yet deeply immersive. Their choices are simple, yet intelligent. The members first met at 'The Big Mushroom Cloud Festival' in 2010, and hit it off straight away. Having learnt their ropes at the prestigious 'I Love Music Academy', Bengaluru, they wasted no time in getting their act together.
Their exploits have not gone unnoticed either. They've been featured along-side some power international acts like 'Dubfire', James Zabiela, Daso, Pawas, Franklin De Costa, Jerome Isma Ae, Guy J, Jim Rivers and Henry Saiz.
