Nominated as best electro producer for the Beatport Music Awards 2008, Olivier Giacomotto has managed no less than 8 Top Ten hit productions, a feat that has lead to
him becoming one of the most in demand remixers/producers in the industry and firmly
established him amongst the continent's leading acts...
Having began his career working in recording studios back in the late 1990's, Olivier
learned the tools of his trade alongside various famous bands, producers, studio
musicians and sound engineers.
Having released over 20 EP's throughout 2004-2005, Olivier began to gain support &
recognition from a host of major DJ's & artists including the likes of Carl Cox, Misstress
Barbara, Chris Liebing, Umek, Marco Bailey, Dave Angel and Green Velvet amongst
many others...
The release of the "Jamon y Queso" EP in 2006 saw his career really take off, with instant
creditation coming from worldwide dj's such as the legendary Sven Vath and one of
Olivier's own longtime John Acquaviva... Indeed, it was Acquaviva himself who signed
Olivier's next release entitled "Walking on The Moog" to his own label : Definitive
Recordings... a track that received international acclaim and went on to become
Olivier's first Beatport Top Ten hit!
This opened the floodgate for 2007 and 2008 and the Top Ten records came thick &
fast... his reworking of the fantastic "Volta" by Robot Needs Oil, closely followed by his
own incredible production "Gail in the O". Olivier's Top Ten hits have included his
production "Wasabi on Top" and "Sushi in S Major" along with his remixes of both Hipp-E's
"Major Waves" and Mantra Vibe's "Running From", also the "Sofa King ...Good" EP
coproduced with John Acquaviva, and the "Eat What You Kill" Project with his other
french partner dj Tonio.
Olivier's success in the studio has seen his touring the world, demonstrating the
overwhelming talent behind the decks that he has crafted over the last decade in some
of the world's most famous underground venues.... Privilege in Ibiza, Rex Club in Paris,
Ministry of Sound in London, Heineken City Hall in Amsterdam, Zona in Moscow, X2 in
Jakarta, La Bush in Belgium, Fabrik in Madrid, Lov-e in Sao Paulo, Turnmills in London,
Summer Dance Festival in Colombia, Hrad in Slovakia, Dom Im Berg in Austria, Fusion in
Germany... to name a few...
Salut poulet, ça va plutôt pas mal,... Et toi ? De retour à une vie plus "musicale" après multes péripéties et une carrière de cadre bancaire annihilée suite à une faillite. Je t'en dirais plus à l'H20 ou par téléphone si j'arrive à te joindre, je t'envoie un email de toute façon. La biz ! Stéphane.
