Producing music for more than fifteen years, Vienna’s Tin Man continues to evolve and invigorate with each and every release. Johannes Auvinen aka Tin Man is an artist in the truest sense of the word, exploring an ever-evolving sound palette. Most recently, the California-born producer and live act has been responsible for reinvigorating the acid scene with his unique and cerebral manipulations of Roland 303s. His tracks are laced with slow and subtly shifting pads and infused with a very real machine soul to exude captivating warmth. Taking influences from “Chicago as well as melancholic UK electronics and Sahkö”, Tin Man’s extensive discography also explores less sublime and seductive sounds on labels like Keys of Life and Global A. He is part of The Acid Symphony Orchestra (a live super group that features artists playing on ten 303, 707 and 808) and has turned out a standalone neo-classical and ambient work, Vienna Blue, which proves he does so much more than pure dance music. The modern acid master plays live on 303s, TR-8s and plenty more bits of hardware, always creating textured soundtracks on the fly using a range of FX and skills built up over the last decade. In recent years Tin Man has also attracted attention through collaborations with Cassegrain, John Tejada, Donato Dozzy, Josef K and Winter Son, AAAA as DOVS, Jordan Poling as Rolling Ones, Patricia as Ociya, and Gunnar Haslam as Romans.
