SWISS NIGHTLIFE AWARD WINNER BEST BLACKMUSIC/OPEN FORMAT DJ 2011

Celebrities like to have his name on their lips, models cling to his designer jeans like limpets and guys stare in envy at his completely spotless shoes. But these are all just side-effects: all of the fame which Hands Solo has experienced for years at home and abroad, and which has made him Switzerland's most sought-after open format DJ, stems from his unique flair for music. For dance music, that is.

Hands Solo brings the party crowds to dizzying heights at the most exclusive clubs around the globe. From domestic VIP infested hotspots in St. Moritz to the hottest venues in China. He has toured through Asia four times, with stops in Singapore, Beijing, HongKong, Taipei, Thailand, Vietnam, played the NYE Party 2011 at M1NT, Shanghai - China's most spectacular club - where he also secured a residency as one of a select few European DJs. Besides his regular stints in the far east Hands Solo is also a regular on the European club circuit playing clubs in Spain, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Luxembourg just to name a few. In his hometown of Zurich he holds residencies at two of the World's Finest Clubs (Amber & Jade). With a traditional schooling in HipHop and equipped with a truckload of skills this globetrotting party-rocker mixes HipHop, House & Pop in his sets to create a sophisticated, highly energetic bottle service program that knows no breaks. So it's no great surprise that Austrian national radio FM4 called one of Hands Solo's mixes a "complete work of art".

Whether playing alongside DJ legends such as Grandmaster Flash, DJ Premier, Jazzy Jeff and super-producers like Mark Ronson; being booked for private Bryan Adams showcases; opening in stadiums for Enrique Iglesias; spinning the official afterparties for the European Football Championship or the Sex and The City II movie premiere; supporting British pop-stars Dizzee Rascal and Blue, German big sellers Ich & Ich, Electro maniacs Vandalism and socialites like Alexandra Richards or entertaining high profile guests for corporate clients that include Nike, FIFA, BMW and Moët & Chandon, Hands Solo shows his dazzling class at every gig. Up to 150 times a year and at his two own nights – GUSHI at Apartment 22 and GHETTOBLASTER at Plaza, Zurich’s latest hotspots.

But Zurich's prince of the needle not only serves up ecstatic escapism in the DJ booth. Clocking in serious studio time in between gigs, Hands Solo crafts remixes, bootlegs and edits which are played by renowned DJs worldwide. His original work for international artists like Maylay Sparks, MF Grimm, Oxmo Puccino and most of Switzerland’s rap elite regularly enters the Top10 of the Swiss album charts. Until recently Hands Solo was a regular guestmixer on London's Kiss 100. He put out official compilations for Universal Music and his numerous eclectic mixes reach hundreds of thousands of downloads and can be found all over the blogosphere. Hungry, hard-working and always up with the beat. And it still has to be said: Mama didn't raise no fool. Except for your mama.
