olivier_giacomottoBIOGRAPHY

Olivier Giacomotto, producer and DJ from Bordeaux - France, started his career in 1999. He first got into production by working in recording studios where he learned how to use samplers, mixing desks, effects, computers and music softwares. From Blues Café studio in Paris to Townhouse Studios in London, Olivier worked with Robert Suhas, Magnus Fiennes, Guy Pratt, Yohad Nevo, Pete Lewis, John Themis, Bond, Lyrics, and various other bands, producers, studio musicians and sound engineers.
Back to Bordeaux, he programs break-beat, drum'n'bass, triphop, hiphop or lounge in electronic projects like Shagshag, Dubweisers or Uprock Massive. During year 2002 with Shagshag, he won a remix contest organised by NEWS and got his first vinyl released : Plastyc Buddha - Rhodes Royce (Shagshag Remix).

Step by step, Olivier progressively got deeper into techno and started to play as DJ with the ProFS system, first edition of Finalscratch. His mixing sessions can be described as punchy and groovy... using Redsound Soundbite Sampler, Air FX, Kaospad, destructuring the mix with effects is one of his strength.
With the release of Playground, his first EP signed by LUPP (famous Belgium music label who already produced many big hits with Stanny Franssen, Filterheadz, Max Walder, Dimitri Andreas, End-jy....), he was selected and played by Carl Cox as one of the ten best titles of April 2004. He is also included in Chris Liebings TOP10 of June, July and August 2004. Before the release date of “Dial T for Techno EP” on ITURNEM 017, his tracks have already been charted, playlisted and included in Chris Liebings new mixed CD. Chris also talked about this EP as a "real bomb".

2005, the collaboration of Stephan Signore and Olivier became massive within the last months. Big support from techno-artists and labels like Black Pitch, Patterns, Planet Rhythm, Rotation and Bound recognized the "team"! Now he climbed up to No. 4 of the 2005-year-chart of Chris Liebing. His new releases and projects are ready to rock the whole world. Don’t miss him and his French flavour!
