Biography of Josh L. Larue |  |
His first contact with music was in 1992, when at the age of 7 he began piano classes at the music academy in the city of his birth. Years later, together with his older brother, he discovered techno music and became fascinated with artists such as Jeff Mills, Robert Hood, Juan Atkins and the Detroit techno scene in general. His first steps into electronic music began at age 15 when he started looking into music software and got hold of his first set of turntables.
His sound has gone in two directions. On one side Detroit Techno and on the other, the Birmingham Sound broken rhythms are mixed with and a hypnotic atmosphere.
This has lead to his music being played by prestigious international dj's, such as the Japanese Ben Gibson (6277/Axis), the portuguese A.Paul (Naked Lunch) or the Dutch Charlton (Audio Assault/Arms) among others, and allowed him to build up an extensive discography in a short time, since the appearance of his first digital production in 2008 “LOBO EP”. It was released by the Portuguese label LABRYNTH, where he has since produced tracks with the Granada based C-System and continues to work with the label today. He is also currently working with the Spanish label TEKNATIKA and several European labels including DIGITAL REFLECTION (Netherlands), M_REC (Italy), BACKWATER COMMUNITY RECORDINGS (UK) and PUBLIC FREQUENCY (Germany).
