Profile
Geroyche started out as a cassette dj when he was 12, serving tekkkkno and early rave to the kids. He got into producing at the age of 14 and has released breakcore and abstract electronics on a number of labels.
He got back to his dj roots in 2001, djing mostly IDM/Electronica and Breakcore while also playing live and co-organizing shows regularily. Since 2005 he’s been pioneering Dubstep in Germany with mixsets to download as well as at parties. Nowadays he’s co-organizing the Kode Dubstep party series in Chemitz/Germany, where for instance 16Bit and Akira Kiteshi gave their exclusive Germany debuts, but hasn’t gotten around producing in a while.
Sound bites
"Geroyche comes up with his own sound, lots of high frequencies, broken beats, unusual dark sounds. This must be the future"
"Is Geroyche a complete nihilist or am I imagining things?"
"Geroyche - "None of them matters" I always picture bodybuilders posing down on top of crumbling skyscrapers."
"Geboren in Karl-Marx-Stadt, benutzt der noch junge Geroyche viel Rauschen und Krach als Ausgangspunkt in seinen Dubbigen (aber teilweise schnellen) poetischen Instrumentalstücken über Einsamkeit, Verzweiflung und Angst ..."
"wir dürfen uns freuen auf geroyche, der aus chemnitz anreist und ein set mitbringt, das sein spezielles gespür für atmosphären und soundmanipulationen zwischen darker elektronik und ragga-/breakcore vorstellt. seine debut-ep ist auf suburban trash erschienen; frisch heraus ist ein beitrag für die ep auf ventilator, ein neues label aus dem umfeld des chemnitzer kulturzentrums voxxx, das er mitbetreibt."
