Dirtwire

Dirtwire sits on the back porch of Americana’s future, conjuring up a gris-gris of sound with an amalgamation of traditional instrumentation, world-beat percussion, and electronic soundscapes. Comprised of multi-instrumentalist David Satori (Beats Antique) and Evan Fraser (Hamsa Lila; Stallamara), each performance brings the audience to a mysterious crossroads at an imaginative and seductive moment in time. The result is a rebirth of Americana and beacon for a post-millennial return to downhome goodness.

The Dirtwire duo met at the California Institute of the Arts while studying World Music Composition. Both members of other successful music projects – Satori as part of the sensational electronic dynamo group Beats Antique and Fraser at the helm of world groove bands Hamsa Lila and Stellamara – their unique chemistry led to a continued musical friendship throughout the years. In 2012 Satori and Fraser released the debut dirtwire album, attracting everyone from electronic dance junkies to traditional world and roots music toe-tappers. With this first release, Dirtwire was introduced to the world and a new family was founded. Satori and Fraser get down as dirtwire at select theater and festival stages across the US.

KMLN

Berlin, January 2011. A legendary rise brings KMLN in less than a year to appear regularly in world famous clubs like Watergate, Arena club, Weekend, Kater Holzig and Chalet; As an experienced musician, with years spent in bands and extensive touring, it adapts to any surrounding and delivers extremely entertaining performances.

Besides having released on labels such as the leading trend-setter in deephouse/nu-disco “Crosstown Rebels” based in London, “Touch Of Class Records” out of SF, LucaBAcchetti’s Label “Endless” in Barcellona, and a future release on Get Physical, he also owns his own record label called „KMLN rec“ based in Berlin, that releases own productions, along with other established artists and fresh up and coming talents.

Whoever tours with KMLN lives the music – dancing, singing and performing – bringing a whole new level of integrated entertainment to the DJ scene.

Among the instruments played you might hear violin, vocals, piano, sax & trumpet but most of all drums. With KMLN you can be what you want to be – every color is a stone for the richness of a mosaic they create. Every color stands for a feeling and represents the many sides of their music, which ranges from deeper house elements, hip hop, techno, minimal abstract and rock influenced modern electronica, with a very organic swing throughout all productions.

KMLN is more than just a collective, with guest performers and musicians, it’s a vision created to promote human beings as “chameleons”, that can easily adapt to their surroundings, share and gain colors the more they interact with each other through Love.

The last year, he has teamed up with the talented DJ/producer Shawna Hofmann from San Francisco/Canada, who has always been a pioneer in the West Coast Festival scene especially at well known experience festival “Burning Man”. She’s always brought styles to the dancefloor, long before they became trends, and delivering fresh new music sounds unheard to most with a multi-cultural twist. The union of them, creates an even more astonishing trip through time&music. The colors of KMLN are always unpredictable, but one thing is for sure…. they play for the dance floor.
