Originally from Berlin (Germany), Amadeus has been pushing the sounds of Ragga / Jungle / Drum N' Bass for a decade now. He rose up playing clubs and raves all over Colorado, from "Roofless Productions" and "Together Productions" Raves, to SOMA in Boulder (Mixmag voted Top Ten club in the USA), and many more. His first CD "Phonik Boom" was released on Organik Recordings (now defunct) in 2000 and the following release "Midsummer Night Sessions" (Organik Recordings, 2001) was praised by BPM Magazine as "The music is sooo fine - drum and bass bliss. Props for not being the typical band wagon monkey. If this guy is in your neighborhood give him some props!" issue 02/01, and earned him runner-up in the North-American Mixtape contest "Unleash the Beats". Currently living in NYC, he continously travels throughout the US and Canada to perform his unique style of Ragga and Hip Hop infused Drum N' Bass & Dubwise. Not only active behind the decks he co-hosted "Plan B Dnb Sundays" from October 2006 until March 2008 alongside residents I-Cue & Paul C, with weekly national and international guests, and is the mind behind SURVIVAL STORY - The Ragga Jungle Compilation (www.survivalstory.net), with a second volume dropping in 2008. He puts out Mix CD's on the regular to great resonance in the scene, having released 6 alone in the past year and is currently working on his own productions (myspace.com/amadeustunes), including a forthcoming collaboration with new school ragga jungle legend Krinjah. He has toured Europe every spring for the past three years and is gearing up for an even bigger tour in 2008. Known for highly energetic performances, Amadeus blends anything from high energy hipstep rollers to ragga-jungle, with an emphasis on reggae / dancehall and hip hop remixes. Always comin' correct with loads of unreleased dubplates from international producers his unique sound is defined by versatility and crowd interaction, always inciting respect and overall dancehall madness.
