Born in a remote part of the rural state of Vermont known for its idyllic beauty but not exactly for urban sounds, it would have been hard to predict that Hans would become such a talented dj, promoter, producer, and virtual encylopedia of all things to do with electronic music . Influenced by his early surroundings, Hans early musical interests were in classic music, playing the viola, and in creating field recordings in the nature. It was not until his late teens, after nightclubbing in Montreal, that Hans interest in Electronic music became all-consuming. Hans was influenced early on by such Montreal DJ’s and producers as Tiga, Eddy Jasmin, XL and Vermont dj/producer Craig Mitchell.Dee-jaying in his hometown often found crowds who were generally unreceptive to electronic music. After attempting to promote electronica events in nearby Burlington (a city friendly to folk music and country music but hostile to electronica), Hans sought to expand his range of opportunities, and moved to San Francisco, California, in 2001. Through much effort and persistence, Hans has slowly established himself in the now thriving techno scene in San Francisco. Now highly sought after as a versatile dj and up and coming producer, Hans has played a variety of nightclubs, undergrounds, fashion shows, and daytime parties in San Francisco, and has an upcoming release on new San Francisco house label Footprint. Hans has played out at a variety of places in SF, including: 111 Minna, Otis, Azul, the Magnet Lounge, The Shadow Lounge, The Monkey Bar, Fuse, the Cellar, Bohemia, 123 Langdon Warehouse, Bloomingdales, Chrome Warehouse, 26 Mix,Forbes Island, Legado Radio, radioexplore.org, Golden Gate Park, and Dolores Park. Though firmly rooted in American house music, Hans has an eye to what is going on in Berlin, the UK, and worldwide. He challenges his listeners with an appreciation of the past and the comfortable,but pushes the envelope with an ear for novel and esoteric sounds.
Hans is also a resident dj on radioexplore.org for "Live Thursdays," every other Thursday, 6-11 PM, PST. Live sets, as well as an archive of past sets, can be heard at www.radioexplore.org
The latest ZC remix is out now on Beatport - just wanna say thanks to everyone for their support on the previous releases. In keeping with the original track, this one is on slightly more of a driving, techy tip, and it's already had a lot of promo support from the likes of James Zabiela (Hearing Aid / Excession), Matt Dopamine (Title Fight), Aston Shuffle (Ministry of Sound), Madox/Riva Starr (Mantra/Dirtybird), Justin Rushmore (Soul of Man), Meat Katie (Lot49), Luke Liam (Medicine 8 ), Andy D (Ministry Radio), Tony Tay (Zouk, Singapore), Anne Savage (Ministry Radio), Rich Belsom (Cubism), Zimbardo (Benchmarc!), Kosmas Epsilom, Chris Carter (Roxilla), Bassbin Twins, and many more ...
Look out for fresh ZC mixes in the next few weeks on tracks for Rennie Pilgrem, Harvey Mckay & Fine Cut Bodies, with more release news & DJ sets to be announced soon ....
cheers,

hey I'm listening right now... I don't know where dragon bar is. but I might go to Vertigo later. I finally got time to record a good mix, but it's sort of housier than my usual...I'll put it on cd right now or maybe email it. Sorry for the lag, my 2008 has been weakly fully loaded
Here's a little modified flyer for the event... It's a black & white themed event, so plan to dress accordingly. Also, think large-scale, abstract/expressionistic calligraphy & paintings...all in black & white... Plus, he's making an installation of a bunch of custom painted T-shirt cutouts on a big laundry line that will zig-zag through the volume of the space addding dimension and decoration.
