This is the declaration Louis Boughias, better known as
DJ PEARL lives by. Music is his life, a passionate expression exuded to each crowd fortunate enough to hear him spin at some of the world’s dance clubs.
The 29 year old German born DJ discovered his love for electronic music
in his early years as an avid fan of such top selling bands as Kraftwerk
and Depeche Mode. By his early twenties, DJ PEARL had developed keen technical skills, enabling him to set his focus on one day recording his own original electronic music.
Raised in Bochum, Germany as the son of a well known French and German musician couple, Louis began in the mid 90..s to spin his first vinyl records on the legendary 1210ers. With his unique style of mixing and his extended music sets, the people soon recognized that there was a new sparkling “pearl” to be heard of in the rapidly flowing “dance music ocean” of West Germany.
As resident DJ of the legendary 18Karat Club in 2003, DJ PEARL quickly went on to field requests for booking collaborations from top international acts. This important development in his career got him known well beyond the borders of his area.
Finally by 2006 it was time for a release! This hot new collaboration would team him with fellow resident DJ, Patric La Funk and associate production partner Timo Becker. Patric and Timo had become the new darlings of Germany’s thriving electro scene with countless productions and remixes under their belt for many well known artists. With their assistance and direction, DJ PEARL went into the studio to create his first
single: Sexy Girl! Released on Opaque Music, the track was heavily
supported by acts like Moguai, Phil Fuldner, The Disco Boys and it served to further build DJ PEARL’s reputation as a hot new dance music artist.
Proving that his career was destined to be defined as more than just a stroke of beginners luck, PEARL’s current single together with Patric La Funk called
“Keep Pushin” was recorded and received a massive support by DJs around the world!
Mousse T himself said about the track that he “Loves it!” and besides of that big names like Roger Sanchez, Eddie Thoneick or Judge Jules played the track several times on their radio shows. “Keep Pushin” boasts a high-quality innovation with new electronic elements combined with the wonderfull vocals of Shena, who sang as well to Michael Grey’s “The Weekend”.
that show PEARL’s ability to be an influential musical leader-not a follower.
