One of the greatest skills a DJ can master is the ability to tease – to hypnotise a crowd, tempting a release of pressure. Enter Garçon. In his magnetic sets, the Swiss DJ artfull builds a volatile atmosphere, braiding together dexterous rhythms that threaten to implode. Although firmly rooted in the realm of techno, a Garçon mix is sure to be flush with avant-garde oddities – coursing, off-beat strangeness, dub trumpets and smoggy IDM. Along with partner in crime Agonis, he is the co-founder of the remarkable label Amenthia and holds a residency at Basel's Elysia club.
