What started as an alternative to playing Mario Kart has exploded into a synthesised melange of samples and wonky beats. Dorian Concept is a 20-something producer from Vienna, Austria. He learned the piano as a child (he's self taught!) and then one day discovered the joys of marijuana. It kind of gave him the 'buzz' he needed to release something visceral from within. Now he's a force not to be reckoned with and somewhat of a YouTube star; his tweeks get over 200,000 hits.
He's debut album 'When Planets Explode' hit shelves March of 2009 and it offers 10 spaced out tracks referencing jazz, hip hop, lounge and electronica.
Catch him if you like: J Dilla, Madlib, Jazzanova & or Vienna's own jazzed-out maestro Joe Zawinul.
March 12 he'll be orchestrating an intimate session at London's Jazz Cafe. So come witness the jazz scales and electric freedom as his fingers hyper-actively skip over the keys.
It may sound something like this:
