the man behind procreation is sam geiser, 24 years old, born and
still living in bern. he first got into contact with music during
his early childhood, for his father is a jazz musician. his big
youth passion, however, was hiphop. he was fascinated by the likes
of gang starr, a tribe called quest, prince paul but also by todd
terryÆs early hiphouse tunes or detroit techno originators juan
atkins and kevin saunderson. after having bought two turntables
and a mixer, he began deejayinÆ hip hop in 1992.
the deejay culture of the hip hop movement was his link to
electronic music. in 1993 he rediscovered jazz with the help of
the incredible track on pharao sandersÆ thembi album (inside 1979)
called astral travelling, which he found while he was looking
through his fatherÆs record collection.
he made his first sound experiments with a sampler in 1994 and
from then on continuously built up his own studio because of his
avid interest in electronic sounds. an introduction to stefan
riesen from phont music in 1997 led to his first release as soul
mate on phont music. this same guy released his 7" on morris audio
as the fiddler in 1999, which was licensed to compost records and
led to the first procreation ep "us vs. them".
he then travelled to japan for deejaying and recorded the "double
exposure vol. 1" ep with dj shufflemaster in tokyo, again for
phont music. in the year 2000 he was contacted for an ep by in-tec
records where he released the very successful deetron ep called
"alien entertainment" which was hammered by the likes of jay
denham, claude young, jeff mills and laurent garnier. sam played
sets at clubs all around europe and his productions got licensed
to many compilations around the globe.
in 2001 "dolls for a diva" was released on the highly acclaimed
music man label in january, the start of a strong relationship
with this label from belgium. new deetron epÆs followed on dave
angelÆs rotation (vertigo ep), jay denhamÆs black nation/sector
616 (dancing manual ep), steve bicknellÆs cosmic (as karakter),
ongaku and phont music.
new procreation tracks appeared on the compost 100 compilation
("itÆs all related to life") and the compost community sampler
("citizen").
the new ep "rhythmatism" once again sees samuel digginÆ deep into
the realms of electronic offbeat, tech-step and nu jazz. these
four tunes will ensure samuel a great popularity not only in the
techno genre but also amongst all headz- & leftfield-hunters.
procreation also did a remix for victor daviesÆ "lady luck" on
jcr, which will be on the forthcoming victor davies remix album.
