QW [ku ve] Augsburg DJ QW, who comes from Hamburg-Harburg, has already written a long artist history. He startet in the late 1990s by scratching his vinyl collection to death on a cheap Reloop turntable. Scratching was fascinating to him. In the early 2000s he finally ended up in Hamburg clubs as a hip-hop DJ. At that time producing music was not the focus. That changed in 2008 when it was possible to combine Serato with Ableton Live. Loops had to be built here that fit the mix. But in which style? Fascinating new musical worlds came from France (Justic, Sebastian, Dj Medhi) and England (Skream, Kryptic Minds, Burial). New influences, exciting challenges and curiosity about other and new sounds from electronica, glitch hop and dubstep. After a lengthy hiatus in Germany, Bavaria, where he succumbed to the worldly cravings of beer, this mystical place of Emperor Franz (no, not the Beckenbauer) aroused his interest in modern house styles. The new influences came from Milena Meißner's house mixes. His current interest is deep melodic house. Production is still in Ableton. Here the analogue sounds from well-known synthesizers (plugins) are combined with minimalistic grooves.
