Description
Roman Flügel has been turning dance music on its head since his first releases in the early '90s.
As a DJ, he's rooted in house and techno, but each record is given time to breathe, so its form and character bleed onto the dancefloor. Flügel doesn’t just take you on journeys; he is the cartographer, mapping out the entire musical landscape, before sharing with you the broader world he inhabits.
Discussing the contemporary electronic music scene in Germany without mentioning Roman Flügel's contribution would be near impossible. In 1993, he co-founded the labels Ongaku, Klang Elektronik and Playhouse, a now legendary imprint that released iconic records by Isolée, Ricardo Villalobos and LoSoul, setting a new cultural marker for European house and techno. A fierce representative of the underground, he's released on seminal labels like DIAL and Phonica, had a hand in some of dance music's biggest anthems—like "Geht's Noch," which is celebrating its 21st anniversary—and is a prolific remixer, adding his touch to records by Daniel Avery, Tuf City Kids, DJ Tennis, Sven Väth, and DJ Hell.
As a party curator, producer, and legendary DJ, his methods are still all about engaging with the crowd, seeing and reading the emotions, keeping his palette wide open for new paths to wander. Art Club is honored to have him inside its walls.
