Rowland The Bastard [Stay Up Forever, Bionic Orange, UK],
(whose name comes from his straight-to-the-jugular style of mixing, and not his attitude!) started djing back in 1993. Some years later he went through the progression from dj to producer and after a chance meeting with Simon Franklin, he was encouraged to establish his own label, Bionic Orange. His tracks and remixes soon became celebrated by the likes of Chris Liberator and D.A.V.E. The Drummer. Nowadays he's flying back and forth, playing a blend of sounds, ranging from deep dark techno to full blown acid techno. So you would think Rowland has his work cut out for him, with all his globe-trotting but he is also running five succesful record labels and producing tracks for all of them, as well as other labels such as Smitten, Stay Up Forever, Abstraction and Paradigm Shift. This is his first visit in Finland and this time he can only be seen at Ascension!
