Adam Beyer
In the mid-nineties, a clutch of Swedish producers burst onto the techno scene. They forged crunching rhythms and firing 'DJ-tools', drawing influence from industrial bands as much as Detroit's golden era. At the movement's forefront was a producer set to become synonymous with his style, and one of the most in-demand DJs of the time; Adam Beyer. During the near decade since he emerged, Adam founded four record labels - Drum Code, Code Red, Truesoul and Mad Eye - and remixed Underworld, Luke Slater and Carl Cox amongst others. His popularity with promoters has never waned and in 2002, his artist album, Ignition Key, found widespread acclaim. 'Fabric 22' shows an intriguing artist, always keen to progress his music and avoid stagnation, in fine form.
