Felix Lorusso, born on the 14th of October 1985, became aware of his passion for electronic music besides the dance floor in the year 2007. Starting to mix his favoured music, he quickly developed a significant style in his DJ sets by using a four channel digital setup. Soon after his first appearances in Hamburg Felix started to produce his own music.
Within a short time he found his own expression of minimal music. With atmospheric tracks, stunning bass lines and haunting noises sometimes outlined by deep vocals he interprets electronic dance music dark and emotionally. In the next three years he and some of his friends started to organize underground techno parties with international guests. The idea to establish their own minimal-techno came to mind. Felix and his partner Tanja Rückwardt (Ira & I) succeeded in their plan and started the label “Cirque du Minimaliste“.

Charlton (1982) begins in 1999. This is the year that the techno scene faced this Dutch DJ from Rotterdam for the first time. Started as a DJ, Charlton was attractive to techno music of that time. While his gigs started to count up, Charlton starts to produce his own tracks in 2001. Charlton’s inventive style of producing tracks and with the techno sounds from “the old days” combined with his own dark off-beat rhythms, filled with nasty razor-sharp and hypnotizing acid basslines, had a great impact on Dutch techno scene.
As a result of his discernible music style, also his first releases took place on the Audio Assault/Arms label of Bas Mooy and Jeroen Liebregts. Together with his “partner in crime” Bas Mooy he started to produce some more tracks and solo tracks for other labels such as Pohjola, Aftertaste, or Labrynth to name a few of the list. In 2006 the collaboration between Bas Mooy and Charlton led to ‘Diabla Diezco’ alias. This project delivers you the “dark and evil techno straight from the streets of Rotterdam”.
The amount of international bookings is increasing in 2007, with gigs in Poland and Czech Republic for example. The same year that Charlton was asked to play at the legendary ‘Awakenings Festival’ party and the same year he became one of the founders of ‘Return records’. Through this label he supports the development of the current techno scene, by creating a high quality music platform for upcoming and current international producers.
