Peter Horrevots

Before starting his music career, Peter Horrevorts was engaged in drawing and sculpture and quickly excelled in creating rough sound constructions from synthetic ingredients. Initially, Peter dabbled in old-school techno with a hint of progressive, releasing records under various aliases on labels like X-Trax, Sublogic Corporation, and Tsunami Special Blend, and in 2006 signed with Kanzleramt, where he began releasing under his own name. His move to the renowned label coincided with the Dutchman's discovery of his own musical concept. He fused vintage deep techno with torn, itchy electro-basslines in the spirit of Alter Ego. The new sound turned out to be not only fresh but also very dynamic. Recognition from colleagues followed quickly: Peter's tracks appeared in playlists and official mixes of stars like Dave Clarke and Danny Tenaglia, and the composition "Birth (Remix)" was included in a mix by DJ Skurge, released by perhaps the most respectable techno label on the planet—the Detroit-based Underground Resistance.
