French producer Led Piperz from Lyon stands out of the mass with a wild and looked-after live act as well as rich dj sets. He's been v-jaying for french dub wizardz HIGH TONE for the last 9 years and the story keeps going on all around Europe.
He started getting involved in music in the nineties as a not-that-gifted guitarist, playing grindcore/metal covers.It wasn't until some friends dragged him by force to an outdoor rave back in 96 that he discovered electronic music .
Completely thrilled by the sound and experience, he decided to swap his Gibson for a pair of decks and a mixer... Soon after, he started piling up 12 » inches at home and play insound systems as Dub, Jungle and Drum & Bass were setting the standards for his future tastes and production.
He joined HIGH TONE in 2000 and began sharing stages at numerous gigs and parties since then with the band's dj crew known as ‘big dub sound'. After several years of dj'ing, the next logical step was to keep digging his own production.
Exploring deep abstract hip hop groundsat first, his style has been evolving towards electronic textures, distorted basslines, spacey atmospheres and fierce synth riffs mainly influenced by acts such as Techno Animal, Vex'd, The Bug or Dälek.
Led Piperz is releasing his tracks on Airflex Labs, a french label he co-runs with Opti and Dj Perkid, as well as on various Jarring Effects or High Tone projects.
