Johannes Lehner ( Do Easy Rec, Micro.fon, Flex, Vienna)
Hackneyed ? Sure not ! No prefabricated artist shape. No rehearsed image. No exhausting style hopping or attitude platitudes. Still waters run deep.
Dissolving crowds and emotions and aiming for a deeper and more soul-full club feeling. That's what Johannes Lehner's dj sets are all about. Rely on his gentler way of playing music. Don..t suppose outstriped four to the floor entertainment and open yourself to a more vibrant way of celebrating house music. Deep pushing basslines sneak around a warm solid gold groove that jacks the floor.
Johannes melts percussive sounds with playful oldschool rhodes attacks. And when there are vocals, they push and push. His well perfect mixes loosen and combine track after track suiting them to his very own perception.
Dive deep and tune in !
His feeling for the right timing and his strong connection to the crowd surely contributed to him becoming a resident Dj at Vienna's famous underground club Flex. Not surprising then that he released his first tracks under his alter ego ElGonzo on the Flex Club's in-house Label Flexschallplatten. Promising reviews and feedback encouraged Johannes to hone his producing skills further.
During the week he loves to back out. Spending most of the time behind his analog studio gears. His true purpose. Making music, deeply in love with the art of producing. Nowadays broad jackin kicks, playful percusions and heavy sub-loaded basslines are at the center of his attention . His productions focus on the groove and merge oldschool house tunes with minimalistic grace. His tracks peer on the dancefloor but never forget to touch the listeners soul. Welcome to the house of Johannes Lehner.
After years of running and supporting different music labels, Johannes finally
decided to launch his own label Do Easy Records in 2009. Do Easy simply means doing
whatever you do in the easiest most relaxed way you can manage and stands for the lively
feeling in a club, spontaneous moving moments and celebrating with friends.
His new label focus on contemporary House music and is featuring both
well know artists and upcoming new producers.
So watch out, do Easy and enjoy the upcoming releases.
