hiGhFi_dElitY - A clubber's guide through electronic music
hiGhFi_dElitY consists of Hans and Fredy Burch, brothers from Switzerland - Obwalden, Sarnen. Their music includes lounge, downbeat, broken_beat, big_beat, breakbeat and drum'n'bass.
It all began in 1999 when the Burchs attended a swiss underground club. Highly impressed by the performing electronic live act, they decided that this would be the thing for them to do.
The following years they committed themselves to basic experimental work. Especially starting with a plain personal computer turned out to be a more demanding task than expected. But the Burchs fought it out and were able to process numerous styles of music into their work, including hiphop, acid jazz and metal.
In 2002 Hans and Fredy released their first full length album. An excellent rendition of psychadelic and trance, causing growing rumours in the electronic dance scene.
During the next couple of years the Burchs expanded their repertoire. This time it was all about lounge, downbeat, broken_beat, big_beat, breakbeat and drum'n'bass.
“Reconstruction” appeared on “Balearic Lounge Collection Vol.4” (2004), “Best Of Macao Cafe” (2005) and “The Sound Of Ibiza” (2007); released by the renomated record - label Macao Cafe Music.
A darker drum'n'bass-anthem “Strange Days”, became the winning title of a competition held by Keys magazine; released on Novatune (2005) as part of the related compilation.
In 2007 “Raw Power” and “What Comes Next?” were released by Holophon;“Remurderous” by iD.EOLOGY “Music Is About People Vol. 2” and “One Of These Days” by Merging Records “Mergingmixtape B.”
“Remurderous” became a clubber's favorite. Ils of Good Looking and Marine Parade fame repeatedly played it in their show at Ministry Of Sound.
Playing alongside important acts such as Black Sun Empire, DJ Friction, Aphrodite, Bad Company and DJ Banban made them even more popular and they decided to release their first proper worldwide distributed album “BROTHERHOOD” (2008) with Holophon.
“We absolutely enjoy moving between all kind of styles in order to create a wider range of diversity – We love to try new things. Once we have an idea, we just go for it.” Hans and Fredy explain, “We always add new influences to our music. That is how we generate our very special characteristic sound. People recognise our tracks among others.”
We recommend the diverse, yet authentic styles of hiGhFi_dElitY and their unique view of electronic music. “BROTHERHOOD” includes relaxing and stimulating tunes - lounge, downbeat and broken_beat. An ideal companion for the beach, the club, the lounge or the living room.
Available on beatport, iTunes and other fine shops.
