DARKBEAT & INSTYNCT

PRESENTS

WEHBBA (BRA)

[TRONIC, BEDROCK, SYSTEMATIC]

 

FRI 20TH JAN @ TRAMP BAR

 

This January, two of Melbourne's most renouned underground crews; Darkbeat and Instynct unite to present Brazilian techno powerhouse, Wehbba. It's been nearly two years since he rocked our dance-floors, and boy are we excited to have him back.

Whether it's collaborating with Swedish techno icon Christian Smith on remixes of tracks by Laurent Garnier and Funk D'Void, or smashing out originals on world class labels such as Tronic Music, Bedrock, Systematic Recordings or Toolroom Records; there's no denying that Wehbba knows how to write a rocking groove.

For those that saw him tear it up alongside Henry Saiz at the Prince Bandroom, you can attest to his unbelievable ability to deliver some of the finest techno. Coming off his booking at the world renowned Rainbow Serpent Festival, the former dentist is at the top of his game and ready to set the Tramp dance-floor alight with his distinct take on techno.

WEHBBA (BRA)

Wehbba is one of Brazil's main electronic music ambassadors worldwide.

Born in S o Paulo, Brazil, and currently based in Barcelona, Spain, this former dentist has been spinning house and techno music records, around the globe, for over a decade.

Wehbba has been a prolific producer, and has developed a very distinct style, marked by stellar production standards. His achievements, as a producer, could be measured by the number of respected artists who he's worked directly with over the years, either remixers, remixees or collaborators. The list includes Laurent Garnier, Danny Tenaglia, John Digweed, Christian Smith, Stacey Pullen, Joseph Capriati, Stephan Bodzin, Ambivalent, Huxley, Bushwacka!, Secret Cinema, ANNA, Carlo Lio, Samuel L Session, Funk D'Void, Valentino Kanzyani, Harry Romero, 2000 And One, Robert Babicz, X-Press 2, Mihalis Safras, Coyu and Kaiserdisco, to name only a few.

His productions have been featured on labels like Tronic, Systematic, Bedrock, Soma, 2020Vision, Knee Deep In Sound, 100% Pure, Audiomatique, Material, Missile, Suara and many others. 'Full Circle', Wehbba's first studio album, released by Tronic Music in 2010, was the landmark which set Wehbba's career off to a new level, achieving outstanding media, DJ and public success. Over the following years, he's been a regular in charts of portals like Beatport or Resident Advisor, and with a second studio album on Tronic, 'Square Two', released in 2013, Wehbba further explored his musician background, displaying a more prominent versatility, including a guest appearance from Jon Dixon and D'Sean Jones, 2/3 of the Detroit group D3, part of the legendary Underground Resistance collective.
