There is a fine line between genius and insanity that Basti Grub has been balancing on for over 10 years. A time of intrepid experimentation with different musical influences and stylistic outbursts. A multi-faceted coming of age process that has made him what he is today - a creative madman whose mental orchestra never stops.

Whether its different instruments, modular systems or synths Basti Grub who was born in Frankfurt loves the unpredictable and never limits himself by thinking in conventional terms.

From a very early age onward it became clear that Basti´s fascination with music would take center stage in his life. The roots: reggae music, a Roland MC 303, turntables and life-changing trips to Omen and Robert Jonson which would lay the foundation to Grub´s concept of club-orientated sound.

About two years ago Basti Grub made a musical leap forward that took him to where he was already aiming for in his beginnings – a sophisticated minimalist yet groovy sound with high standards. This development did not go unnoticed and led to Basti Grub becoming the producer one of the Techno institution Timo Maas.

Basti Grub is currently working on his fourth studio album and participating in a variety of new and interesting projects that are yet to come out

Acquiring various classical synths and rhythm machines from brands like Korg, Moog, and Roland, Alberto Ruiz began experimenting and producing music at a professional level. In 2012, he founded his own record label, Stick Recordings, which quickly gained momentum. A pivotal moment came in 2013 when Dubfire supported Alberto’s track "Alien," leading it to become one of the most acclaimed techno releases of the year.

Following this success, Alberto’s work was picked up by influential labels such as Suara, Elevate, Terminal M, Noir Music, Deeperfect, Bla Bla, and Transmit Recordings. He has since produced and remixed works with world-renowned artists including Pig&Dan, Monika Kruse, Coyu, Noir, Axel Karakasis, Sinisa Tamamovic, and Skober.

Known for studio talent that evolves at a rapid pace, Alberto’s productions frequently receive heavy support from industry titans. Recently, his remix of Quentin Dourthe’s "Full Vision" gained widespread acclaim after being championed by the legendary Green Velvet. His tracks are a staple in the sets of artists like Richie Hawtin, Adam Beyer, Marco Carola, Carl Cox, Joseph Capriati, Pan-Pot, and Solomun, cementing his position as a formidable force in the world of techno.
