EQUITANT BIOGRAPHY
With his last release "Dynamism" in 2009, Equitant has proven once again how to re-design and significantly alter his musical approach. The concept for ?Dynamism? is an ever-changing activity or process. Various theories or philosophical systems that explain the universe in terms of force or energy. A process or mechanism responsible for the development or motion of a system. Continuous change, activity, or progress; vigor. Equitant's "Dynamism" unites a cold mix of electronic body music and darkened techno. ?Dynamism? is more or less where his 2008 EP ?Mekanik? left off. Just as heavy and just as aggressive. 2008 saw a revivification of Equitant's style and sound, with the "Mekanik" EP release on Black Montanas & Black Leather Records. This EP brought forth a new chapter in the sound structure and design of the music. The music took on a distinct and aggressive techno-EBM sound...like switching on a kind of techno-EBM engine.
Equitant's antecedent sound started out as an ambient synthesizer project in 1993, then evolved to a cold mechanical direction of electronic music with traces of techno-electro elements in 1999. From 1993-2003 Equitant released a vast collection of demos issued on his label Black Montanas, including his first full length album "Zurich" in 2002. With the release of the "Kompressor" EP in 2003, Equitant's techniques delved deeper into a state of electro and retro sound-scapes, heavily influenced by past and present German electro, and almost any underground electronic music of the 1980's. In 2005 Equitant signed with the Dallas Texas based "Tarot Productions" label. The result was the simultaneous full length releases of "Zeit" (recorded in 2002) and "Konstruckteur" (recorded in 2004). Both albums fused a cold delivery of electro, and abstract techno, unveiling a futuristic simulation for all the masses. The follow-up to "Konstruckteur" was the long awaited "Hauptstadt" EP released in 2007 on Black Montanas. These three tracks of raw analog and ambient electro have become a favorite among Equitant fans worldwide. After a much-needed break musically, Equitant released the experimental "Technik" full length album on Black Montanas in early 2008. A release strictly influenced by the infamous "Detroit Electro" sound.
From 2003 to the present Equitant has constructed countless remixes for many renowned artists in the electro/techno/EBM scene. Remix releases with worldwide underground electronic labels like: Space Factory, Black Montanas, Black Leather Records, M-tronic, Punch Records, Alfa Matrix and Advanced Synergy. Artist remixes include Jonathann Cast, Miss Duckin', Millimetric, Yasmin Gate & People Theatre, Adriano Canzian, Mt. Sims, Electroflex, Fake Fur, Starchaser Network, The Dealers, Giving For The Call, Maxx Klaxon, Lethargy, Stamba, Leggo, Plastic Machine, Nexus 6, TK8, Scorpio, Kitsch, Nadia Sohaei, Elite!, Other Aspect, Sindrome, Reizstrom, Red Industrie, Kaball, Nad Mika, Struck 9, Ba', Strange Connection, Grandchaos, The Crime & Daniel Mark and Orline.
In July 2009 Equitant produced a track called "You Know What I Want" for Yasmin Gate's (Ex-Dirty Princess) debut release on David Carretta's "Space Factory Records", along with other collaborators: T Raumschmiere, Ikki, Douglas McCarthy, Migue Garcia and Petra Flur. Equitant also teamed up with Yasmin Gate for a full collaboration as "Equitant & Yasmin Gate" in 2009, releasing the illustrious "That's All" EP and the "That's All - The Remixes" on Black Montanas.
Over the past 3 years Equitant has been a resident live act at the prominent "Klub Atomix" in San Antonio Texas. As well as other live performances in Texas, Mexico City and Bogota Colombia. The Italian producer Adriano Canzian has described Equitant's sound with three simple words, "Powerful, Sexy, Strong?simply amazing?.
