ROLAND APPEL

Roland Appel started producing music and spinning records in the early nineties. He was a member of Fauna Flash (together with christian Prommer) and the Trüby Trio (with rainer trüby + christian prommer).

They produced 3 studio albums with these projects and one dj kicks with the trüby trio. 2002 he was releasing one album with his projekt with peter kruder and christian prommer called voom:voom.

with every project he toured the world and played the big clubs and festivals including roskilde festival, sonne mond und sterne, sunflower, big chill, 10 days off, montreux jazz festival, sonar festival, fabric london, cielo new york, weekend berlin, yellow tokio, etc...

2004 he moved to paris france and lived there for 1 and a half year. During that time he started to write music for his solo career. After returning to munich / germany he teamed up with engineer jan krause to start recording. For all the vocals he brought the singer araba walton in, a high profile singer/ actress who had exactly the strange vibe he was looking for to put the songs to the next level.

Their stradegy was simply not to copy all the music around and to find a way to combine the rules of the dancefloor and the feeling of a song. "Dark soldier" was the first result and "changes" followed. After a while it was clear that there was material for a whole album in the same vibe. R.A. combined the influences from detroit techno to folk, from disco music to soul and house.

Played by: dj hell, dj dixon, ame , pete tong, giles peterson........

Roland vieraili aikoinaan Drumnbass djinä FAuna Flash aikoihin Freeform klubilla Kermassa. Huippu dj, vaihtoi soundin totaalisesti. Dj setit ja uus tuotanto, house/ disco/techouse/techno linjoilla laajalla skaalalla.

ukon tuotanto on kyllä ollut hyvää, mutta deejii seteistä ei ole kyllä itään hajua. Ja ne onkin aina aika jännittäviä, ett millasta soundia soittaa / millanen deejii teknisesti on? Silti kyl ainakin musta aika tuntematon nimi jengille, mutta toisaalta kuka ei olis, kun Suomea mietitään.

Old school house menoa, teknolla maustettuna on Rolandin setit kuulemma. Se jää kuultavaksi. kova dj Roland on sen tiedän jo vuosien takaa
