Biografia
Keeping it weird in Austin, Texas, Fennec has been making tunes and spinning grooves since his first mixtape in 2014, Let Your Heart Break. Amassing a cult following from his bedroom studio over the past decade, Fennec crafts and digs up dance music for yesterday, today, and the future. Similarly, Fennec's DJ sets showcase his producer's ear for vintage deep house, obscure disco edits, and dusty leftfield curveballs strung together with a sense of surprise, whimsy, and fun.
Fennec's early listening habits centered around making mixtapes of psychedelic and experimental music. As a result, Fennec brings an outsider perspective to the club with an intuition for loopy samples and textured sound collages. His album A Couple of Good Days, self-released in 2022, firmly claimed his stake in the deep house pantheon with its combination of exotica, jazz, and funk influences that DJ Mag described as "wistful, nostalgic, subtly profound, and deliciously obscure...deeply memorable." Following on, he caught the attention of esteemed Swedish label Studio Barnhus where he flexed his knack for dance floor weaponry on the now sold-out Momentary Pleasure EP.
Acclaim for Fennec's music has been well-received from Pitchfork, Bandcamp, and Resident Advisor. Notably, Fennec's track "Boy-U" was named in Rolling Stone's list of the 200 Greatest Dance Songs of All Time. His music has been supported by DJs like Axel Boman, Black Loops, Jen Cardini, Mark Farina, Laurent Garnier, Radio Slave, and Mark Ronson. New releases on the underground Berlin label Aterral and French institution Noire & Blanche further entrench Fennec as a global voice in modern house music.
