FRIDAY 20th DEC @ NEW GUERNICA

AS we are gearing up for the busy Christmas season we can't be more pleased with how 2013 have panned out. This year we have had some of our strongest shows to date and the feedback from you is evidence that this has been a stellar year. It would be so easy for us to take a break right now and go on xmas holiday, but we feel that there is reason for one more show before the year is over - and that reason doesn't come more justified than hosting Argentinean techno star Guti.

Guti is a hugely gifted musician (he was considered a child musical prodigy) who went on to become a rockstar with one of Argentina' most popular bands. A chance meeting with a Grammy nominated dance music producer sparked his interest in dance music, and it wasn't long before artists like Tiefschwartz and Loco Dice took notice of his latin-tinged techno sounds. One Essential Mix later (in 2012), and here we are in 2013 with Guti's live techno show which is widely considered to be one of the best live techno acts in the world.

GUTI [LIVE] (ARG)

A classically-trained jazz virtuoso and national rock 'n' roll hero in Argentina, Guti was born in an exceptionally musical family, which included orchestra directors, saxophone players and pianists. As a teen, after getting into blues he began hanging with successful Argentine rock bands like the Black and Blues, Ratones Paranoicos, Viejas Locas and Los Piojos. "We were jamming, and I discovered that energy." Before long, his own band Jovenes Pordioseros were playing to 10,000 people from Thursday through Saturday. It was in the studio of Latin Grammy-nominated producer and friend Leandro Martinez that Guti began experimenting with making house beats and singing on top. And having grown up with music, it didn't take long before he was banging out several tracks a day without breaking a sweat.

A heartbeat later, he'd landed a hit with Damian Schwarz on Frankfurt label Raum...Musik, and the tune was licensed by Loco Dice for his compilation The Lab. Guti passed a handful more tracks in Loco Dice's direction, tracks that were recorded on his adventurous travels between Berlin, Athens and Paris in 2009 and the die was cast. Guti's electronic career began to ignite. Just two years after his first live sets in Europe, Desolat was proud to present the double 12inch "Las Cosas Que No Se Tocan".

In 2010 Guti moved to D sseldorf to hunker down in the studio to concentrate on the Guti Techno and House project. The result was his stunning debut album "Patio de juegos" released on Desolat. Since then the Latin-D sseldorfer is taking the world by storm, with fulminant live sets and appearances on labels such as Defected (with Luca Bacchetti) and Cadenza (with Cesar Merveille). Although currently based in D sseldorf, it's unlikely he will ever leave behind the spirit of the Latin America he knows. "I love Buenos Aires. It's a huge city... a huge jungle. Really fast, really crazy, dirty, messy. But really creative: amazing musicians. That happens with all the poor countries. We don't have money, so we play music. We write books." And the story continues.


Guti's Darkbeat debut has been in the works for a while now and we are really excited to finally have this locked in. Friday 20th will be the start of Christmas break for a lot of people, and we really can't think of a better way to start the holdiays with one of the world's leading techno acts! This is set to be a CRACKER!
