Messenger of Dionysos · Mused by Apollo

In ancient times, Satyr was the horned and horny messenger of Eleusinian forest god Dionysos. He mesmerized the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute and made them dance till broad daylight. In our common present, the spirit of Satyr inhabits the body of a human boy.

Searching for a new way to spread the vibe of the forest, by Dionysian decree, Satyr switched to SL and CDJ instruments, which fit the job quite nicely. Apart from those, he employs the tools Apollo chose: a blank screen and virtual ink, to jot down all he likes to think - hence this his satellite here, orbiting Earth's blogosphere!

Tutti Nutti Frutti




2015.03.27 - Tutti Nutti Frutti

Sticking around the Nordic realm, picking up on current rhythms, a wandering question crosses the River of Thought: how to transcribe Hutti Heita? Frivolous ambivalence often belittles the literately limited mind when sound becomes objectified in a certain written language, yet when perceived from the frame of reference of the huge ever growing electrophonic sculpture, it seems quite satisfying to follow these simple steps in sonological order:

· levart wackbards through spacetime, full reverse entropy
· forwarp from 60s California, Goa in the 70s to 80s Ibiza
· don't get stuck in the sand now; trace the sound meander
· dance all over Europe during the 90s, heading Scandinavia
· hang out in Denmark for a while, pine for the fjords
· absorb the pre-millennial sound of KoxBox
· forwarp to our common present, take it up north a notch
· head out into the forest, patiently await the Midnight Sun
· wear Hofmann Safety Goggles ™ at all times

If that seems like a little too much to munch away
during an average businessman's lunch trip,
try this one little snack:

· combine contrast compare: Lunar Bin & Fruitcake

Anywave ... do not take any word for it.
Better catch them live in the act
if, when and where you can.

freakuently unanswered questions


? what is Satyr

! in ancient times, Satyr roamed the Eleusinian forests as the horned and horny messenger of Dionysos - the god of ritual intoxication - who dispatched him to mesmerize the youth of nearby villages with the musical magic of his flute, and made them dance till broad daylight.

? where is Satyr

! in our recent past, Satyr reincarnated in the concrete jungle of Amsterdam as a DJ. At age ten, he recorded his first mix, displaying his love for early hip hop and electro, and soon his tapes were in high demand. After the Second Summer Of Love, he got turned on by new dimensions of synthetic sound and ventured into the realms of ambient, acid-house, techno and trance music, never looking back ever since.

? does he still play flute

! the Panflute has become an artefact in captivity, held safe and sound in the archeological archive of the Vatican. Yet, since them high-n-mighty early 1990s, Satyr became increasingly skilled as a player of the SL & CDJ instruments, spinning various styles of musica eclectronica, embracing a wide range of the bpm spectrum with remarkable sparkle.

Notoriously difficult to pigeonhole yet sharply focused on and specialized in ambient, chillout, psytrance & deep atmospheric techno; entertaining events for 5 to 50.000 people, by serving his spicy melange of clean cuts and dirty grooves, mixing it down and grinding it up from raw to smooth.

A few memorable events ecstasized by Satyr:
Amsterdam Dance Event (NL), Atmosphere (Berlin), Ballonnenfeest (NL), Burning Man (USA), Club A (Sao Paulo), Dance Valley (NL), Love & Magic (Oslo), Metsafestiwaal (Finland), Pan-O-Rama Festival (La Gomera), The Pi Club (Berlin), Q-Base (Germany), Senseblender Festival (Belgium), Universo Paralello (Bahia / Brazil), VooV Experience (Germany), and many more in Belgium, Brazil, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, USA & all over The Netherlands.*
