Biography of Ian Dee Grees
Producer and DJ Ian Dee Grees is based in Salzburg, Austria. Becoming interested in music at the early age of eight, Ian began playing records at his local youth center.
His journey into sound production originated with the fabulous computer from the 80's, the Amiga 500, given to him from a friend. Being a technician, Ian could easily understand how this synthesizer worked and what it could do.
The next phase of his journey has taken years to bring to perfection. During this time he made his first tracks with VeTo, Taku, G-Stylz, Subtrain, Caligari, as well as other music software. An apprenticeship as a eventmanager presented him with a new job but also allowed him to realize a dream at the same time; the possibility to create his own House-Club. An investor accepted his concept and the club "Room21" was born. Many prominent DJs have spun at Room21 including Dan Rubell, Slack Hippy, Andrew H., and Thomas Foster to name a few.
For five years Ian has had his own radioshow called "Klangfeld 5 Live" with guests like Chris Liebing, Marusha, and Markus Kavka. As a resident DJ of the famous Republic-Cafe (Tom Novy, Markus Kavka, D-Nox, Milk & Sugar, Kruder & Dorfmeister,..), a well-known guest DJ at the spacy Cave Club (Westbam, Dr. Motte, Carl Cox, Miss Kittin, Monika Kruse,..) and a resident at the eye-candy Soda-Club (Mark Mechanik, Daka, Linus Milchbrand), Ian Dee Grees rocks the crowd with a healthy mix ranging from Minimal to Tech House and Electro to soulful Progressive-House. His sets result in a harmonious fusion, telling a story that fits perfectly to the emotions of the night.
Over the years, Dee Grees has produced and remixed tracks for a wide variety of artists. After meeting Christian Hornbostel, he was signed to Mylo Recordings. His first track "Backspace" was a smasher for hazy, early mornings receiving spins from Sasha and John Digweed. He has produced diffrerent dance projects including the hymn for the Unite Parade. Some of Ian's tracks have also won the Electronic Music Award and like the Jederpop Contest.
For a year and a half Ian Dee Grees lived in Mallorca, Spain. With new inspiration, his skills brought him the idea of developing a nightlife portal for this small island, which he succeeded in doing. He met many interesting people on his way and was gigging in the famous Titos (Tocadisco, Javi Bora,.) as well as the Zambezi House Club - located in a wind mill.
Last year Ian started his own label called "Klangfeld Records" which focuses on danceable electronic music. The first release on Klangfeld was included on Beatport's Underground Most Wanted Compilation.
