MUMBAI: This is indeed big for the music fraternity who are into the electronic music space. Micronaut, the German electronic music producer and multi-instrumentalist is all set for his India debut in June 2017. In association with M/R and presented by Mixtape, his India tour will include Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Pune from 8-11 June 2017.
Considered by many as a one-man orchestra, Stefan Streck has recently released his third full-length album, ‘Forms’ on Acker Records, Germany. Mumbai-based OX7GEN aka Aditya Ashok will be supporting The Micronaut on all the shows of his India tour. Germany is known for producing quality electronic music and musicians and Leipzig-based musician, Stefan Streck aka The Micronaut is yet more proof of this. Stefan has built a bridge between him and the audience with a timeless mixture of electronica and broken beats. The musical snapshots of The Micronaut draw their expressive power and liveliness from a play of contrasts: between two-steps, broken bass music rhythms and stomping straightness, between catchy melodies and subliminal drama, between electronic sound synthesis and human vocals. These little bits and pieces might be of very different nature, but together they complement each other and work in perfect harmony, creating the big picture.
His love for the details:
“I’m going to play some tracks from my latest album 'Forms', some unreleased stuff and of course some older songs from my first two albums. My set will be intense, diverse and energetic. I will put a lot of time in preparing the set for this special opportunity. I’m also interested in meeting new people and learning about the culture. Hopefully these shows are the first of many more to come. I´m really excited to begin this journey,” said Stefan on his India tour.
