Teapot is Tomáš Ferko (born 1985). His style is an auteur hybrid of cinematic IDM, dubstep, and minimal techno, with the occasional hint of jazz. After fledgling attempts to form a full band line-up, Teapot embraced the laptop as a dynamic musical instrument and carried on as a solo project. But he quickly grew bored of the isolated nature of bedroom studio work and spent the following years playing live shows, where he developed his current style of performance: beginning with a basic structural foundation, improvisation is the key component. Teapot is constantly adding and subtracting layers to the raw material of the tracks, letting them grow and evolve with every live show. By playing them differently each and every time, from venue to venue and crowd to crowd, he gradually progresses towards his own unique sound while building his reputation in the process. In 2004, he was selected to be a participant at the Red Bull Music Academy in Rome. Throughout the years he has shared the stage both with local luminaries (Dope Aviators, Karaoke Tundra, Foolk, Isobutane) and international legends (opened for Coldcut /w Isobutane).Teapot has played festivals including Colours Of Ostrava, Wilsonic, NewNew, and has hit key venues in both Slovakia and Czech Republic. He also curates an eclectic clubnight called BALANC, hosting quality electronic live performers and enlightened DJs, and is one-half of GHOUL UNIT – a dubtechno, dubstep and future-garage DJ outfit formed with his long-term ally Break!fast.
