Listen to my latest mix at:
First of all we have to ask the question - what is repetitive electronic music?
Being a musician for more than two decades was the fundament when Don Genaro entered the decks as a minimal electro oriented DJ and producer in 2002. Born in the Ruhr Area he was faced with music very early. Therefore he got education in several instruments but finally decided for drums which always had impressed him most. A journey through different styles of pop music began, starting with rock, continued with funk and fun punk, and consequentially leading to serious jazz activities for many years.
That was the way Don Genaro developed his ability of hearing, the sense for rhythms, and most notably the understanding of forms (and how to destruct those in an adequate way). Form follows function... and there is no misunderstanding about Don Genaros concept of function. The function his repetitive electronic music is to go out beyond ones mind. It is to make the crowd on the floor scream. It is to make the people wet.
In the mixes as well as in his music productions you will constantly find this idea, to pay deference to the deepest human need for exstasy.
Starting with some smaller DJ performances Don Genaro grew and is now taking off. In every free minute you will find him in his sound kitchen brewing the ultimative brain melting mixture, there are various releases expected the next weeks and months.
In his DJ mixes you can feel the tremendous hypnotizing power that can only be provided by this genre: the worldwide success of minimal electronic music is showing how much it activates something that is in danger to get lost- the dialogue with where we all come from, with the ground we tend to forget we all stand on. And it is a key to the universe within. Don Genaro will take you on a trip... take care.
