Loek Frey

Loek Frey is one of the talents to have emerged from the Dutch scene in recent years. It is his blend of IDM, techno, breakbeat and drum and bass that has turned so many heads, not least with his Decipher album on his home label Omen Wapta, a widescreen soundscape of varying intensities and tempos. He veers from the intricate and experimental to the hallucinatory and vibrant with rare ease. His live sets are built entirely from his own productions: cinematic cosmic ambience and hurried minimal rhythms embellished with ghoulish voices and dark undertones, a sleek and linear journey defined by the constant presence of a supple, pulsing bassline that transports you to distant future worlds.
