Pan-European DJ and producer Mytron was born in Poland, raised in Holland, then Germany, and has now lived in London for the best part of a decade. His releases, for Codek, XXX, Bordello A Parigi, Multi Culti, Nein and Les Yeux Orange, herald a similarly nomadic spirit. A finely-fused psychedelic journey through groove, pausing for stopovers in rainforest rhythm, intergalactic electronica and otherworldly Afro-house. A psychedelic rock guitarist who landed in London as synthesisers were taking centre stage again, inspiring his own first dancefloor output, he soon became immersed in Peckham’s club scene as a DJ. These influences and more refract into a hardware-driven spectrum of sound stretching from the playfully percussive and sun-baked to darkly funky electronics. Past output as Mytron & Ofofo, a partnership with In Flagranti’s Sasa, saw the duo hit European venues such as Lithuania’s Opium Club, dispensing a heady cosmic brew of mid-tempo mysticism. His own DJ sets are accentuated by personal edits, illustrating a palette as at home in Afro Cuban grooves or European post-punk as it is in leftfield techno. And a forthcoming EP alongside Japan’s Zongamin unites Fourth World and Radiophonic Workshop primitivism with various disco iterations. Further solo releases, meanwhile, are due on Multi Culti, Calypso, Budabeats, Strangelove Music and Bongo Joe. His live show turns the extensive Mytron studio inside out, using a sampler and sequencer to control his machines and adding a vocoder for good measure. It’s a chuggy, druggy, fuggy ride through tweaking acid, raw funk and tripped-out melodies – setting the scene for an inevitable soaring segue into hazy transcendence. -------------------- some reviews: As we understand it, Mytron took it upon himself to rework two tracks from Calypso Records’ ‘Take Away’ series. After hearing the results, label bosses Thomass Jackson and Inigo Vontier were so impressed, they decided to release the music themselves. It’s not difficult to hear why. Top work once more from Mytron, both of his versions are excellent. (Cosmic Tiger SE-Asia) It falls to London-based Mytron to bring the curtain down with the scuzzy disco of "You Only Live Once". As you'd expect from a man who spends his fair share of studio time with In Flagranti's Sasa, this wonky groove has all the VHS scuzz, cut and paste roughness and full scale sleaze of a vintage Codek release. This is music for the dingier disco. (Piccadilly Records Manchester) Their 'Ceremony' EP further expands their sound by incorporating various influences from around the world into a collection of unique cuts filled with intricate rhythms, emotive motifs and infectious grooves. (Mixmag) their tracks were featured/premiered by Stamp The Wax, Hype Machine, Bolting Bits, The Ransom Note, The Vinyl Factory, etc...
