Alongside working together with Niklas Ehrlin and Henrik Larsson on their main and wellknown project
in the 90's, Headroom, Patrik Skoog began a solo project, darker and more tribal-techno
influenced in comparison to the collaborations. After releasing the first output on German and
American labels he then decided to set up Native Diffusion records for these type of tracks.
This focused mainly on own productions, but also showcased remixes from the likes
of Damon Wild, W.J Henze, Inigo Kennedy, Slobodan, Takaaki Itoh & Hardcell.
As of 2003 and 2004 other talent started to appear on the label as well, respected
producers and newcomers to the techno-scene alike.
2004 also saw Headroom..s debut release on the classic New York-label Synewave getting
licensed to the "Exhibitionist" CD and DVD compilation, compiled and mixed by
world renowned DJ Jeff Mills, and as the popularity of their style of techno increased
over the last years, remix offers also dropped in frequently. Patrik did one for fellow Swede
Adam Beyer and his now classic Drumcode imprint, which shortly thereafter lead to more
releases on Drumcode, and the sublabel Truesoul.
Being a technical Dj with great sense for momentum and trackselection Skoog has played
and continues to play praised gigs in the USA, UK, North- and South America and all across Europe.
In early 2005 a new project was found in "Agaric" where he explores the slower, deeper realms
of techno and house and with productions on his well-received labelproject named "We Are",
Patrik has gained alot of appreciation from industry peers, and you have seen a big change
in Dj performances as well as trackwork, where he excurts further and further away from
playing the typical hard sound from which he was known, and more often than not he
performs a deeper variety of tracks that hints of a new modern take on his early
influences from the likes of Robert Hood, Wolfgang Voigt or Plastikman. In 2006, the
Native Diffusion label is being put on ice, ending after six years at number 19 in the
series; a four track various artists e.p. entitled "End game", and Patrik starts to perform
liveacts all over the world with the Agaric project, premiering at one of the leading festivals
for electronic music in the Nordic countries, Public Service.
