Canadian Techno for Russian Ears

Canadian Jeremy P. Caulfield, like his famous techno compatriot Richie Hawtin, lives in Berlin and breathes Europe. Europe, in turn, perceives him as one of the pillars of modern 'Canadian sound' alongside Jack Fairley, Akufen, and Pan/Tone, without jealously guarding his residency at Toronto's Fukhouse parties and participation in organizing Montreal's main showcase of young electronic talents, Mutek. Caulfield successfully releases records on iconic European labels Trapez, Ware, and WMF, and on his own (jointly with Jake Fairley) Dumb-Unit, he releases Moscow heroes Midiots. The DJ duo of Dima Feelgood and Vasily Bi-Voice is current, meaningful, ironic, and very danceable music. The Moscow version of minimal-deep-tech-house... (in the same realm as micro-house, minimal-techno, click-n-cuts, and even the infamous 'Cologne shuffle') - is a special beat created on home computers that works equally harmoniously on the dance floors of Moscow's 'Mix' and London's Fabric. The 'Traktorism' release is now an audiophile rarity - the authors themselves can't even find it for money. Last winter, Jeremy was already conquering Moscow's techno-house meccas - the now-closed 'Phlegmatic Dog' and 'Gorod', but due to strange circumstances, he found himself behind the decks at the non-traditional 'Zone' and 'Vinaigrette'. A visit together with Frenchman Sami Reynolds (also an artist from the Dumb-Unit catalog and a member of Duplex 100) to an after-party at 'Mix', where Sami's wife Pi Toy played, and the Drug Control Service was reporting on catching unruly ravers, left a lot of impressions on all participants of the performance. The guests were saved, but the 'Russian exoticism' only fueled the guys' interest in unexplored Slavic souls. This year, Red Way visitors will be the first to hear Jeremy.
