Not many modern electronic producers can say they know as much about the architecture and social structure of a beehive as the chord structure of their own music ,but then again,not many upcoming producers have been quickly developed an oeuvre of work that has caught the attention of labels like Dubfires Sci&Tec,Soma recordings,Paul Woolfords Intimacy,Pokerflat and Bedrock in such a short space of time either.Now regarded as one of the most promising upcoming acts in the techno scene today,Sian revels in his uniqueness.He has already been reworked and remixed by talent like Gui Boratto,Steve Bug,Efdemin,Minilogue or Pan-Pot and so early on in his career,has toured half the world.Rocking heaving crowds and bringing his trademark experimental DJing style to the masses via multiple outputs of explosive techno,fx and loops cut up and edited live.His tracks instantly caught the ear of everyone from Sasha,John Digweed,Carl Cox to Luciano,Richie Hawtin,Ricardo,Loco Dice or Steve Bug and have shown how a genre busting raw talent crosses over stylistic boundaries.Plus his DJing performances at international contemporary clubs and festivals in Europe,to dates in Canada,USA,Eastern Europe,South America,Australia and beyond.Memorable nights at pioneering clubs like Berghain,Secretsundaze,Tripod,Weekend,Hive,Nitsa,Mulletover,Compression,The Loft,Fusion Festival,The Endup etc etc have seen Sians marathon DJ sets bring real voodoo to the dancefloor.He is also now a showcase artist for Weekend club in Berlin, rolling out his trademark freaky style at the club and events regularly,and is also resident at his own hedonistic clubnight in Barcelona,Shake your bones.On one of the sleaziest streets in his adopted hometown ,he hosts guests like Josh Wink,Pan -Pot or Shonky to a frenzied mob of chic clubbers on a weekly basis.When you have interests ranging from Entomology,Cosmology and Marine Biology to Psychoacoustics and the social impact of the rave generation..you tend to make unusual art.Born in Dublin,Ireland,raised gypsy style in southern Spain and constantly moving cities,Sian chose early to drop out of normal society,make music and DJ. Adhering more to the avant-garde way of life,He stands out as a little more bohemian than the average electronic figure..a rare,flamboyant and eccentric new talent. With appearances on very select labels,his unusual DJing approach and his acclaimed output on his own techno imprint,Octopus,Sian is fast becoming recognized by peer and press alike as one to watch.From international radio like the BBC to Mags like DJMAG,IDJ,Mixmag,Raveline,XLR8,Resident Advisor etc the praise for his raw style and very exploratory label are unanimous.Beginning with a rather unusual 12" for Pokerflat featuring a Steve Bug remix (which is considered a secret weapon end-of-the-nighter by many cult DJs),Followed with underground gems on labels like Mule and Gabriel Anandas Karmarouge etc, sian then went on to make a series of releases for Aus,the rare and meticulously procured London label of Will Saul.These oddities were remixed to perfection by Minilogue,Efdemin and Roland Appel thus leading Sian to develop records for Dubfires monster Sci & Tec Imprint,Paul Woolfords Intimacy and Soma,where he sparked a collaboration with techno legend Funk Dvoid ,a combination of full on dubby atmospheres and serious drum workout action has seen the pair develop this widely praised studio project into classic releases. This leads us to his biggest undertaking yet,his own forward thinking and contemporary techno imprint Octopus.number one on the imprint was Flood,remixed by the maestro Gui Boratto,kickstarting a whole plethora of left field underground backroom bombs and main room stompers with output from esteemed names like 3Channels,Ripperton,Gui Boratto,Jonas Kopp,John Selway,Exercise one,Roland M Dill and bright new talent like Calculus and Nico Purman.The young imprint is already getting praised by DJs like Carl Cox,Richie Hawtin,Sasha,Dubfire,Loco Dice,John Digweed,Damian Lazarus,M.A.N.D.Y and much press rapture from DJmag,IDJ,Mixmag,Resident Advisor,Groove,XLR8 etc.The appreciation for Sians personal style and vibrant production is seemingly endless and demand is now heating up for Sians remixes,with recent projects such as Gui Boratto,Audiofly,Guy J,Simon Baker and Vegetable Orchestra project (other remixers on this peculiar project are Anja Schneider,Luciano,Villalobos),he has illustrated a genuinely diverse sound and achingly sublime style. Whether conducting everlasting sweat soaked DJ sessions or creating timeless dance music, Sian is a truly diverse and original talent,at once chic and hedonistic,always intensely inventive...
