JOHAN AFTERGLOW
short biography
Swedish analogue electro-tech producer Johan Afterglow. Never afraid of keeping things simple, Johan often concentrate on the elemental ingredients of electronic dance music; the kick, the clap, the hihat and the bass never rushing things, building it up and breaking it down and everyone is invited to his dance.
Johan is a man of many musical faces, not a newcomer in the scene and becoming a somewhat household name in remixing, production, DJing and hard, funky electro-tech, with releases on Capitol, Virgin, V2, EMI, Platform B, Farbenfroh, Klientele Music, ODA, 9 Records etc... Johan Afterglow shows that he's a man of many talents and tastes, ambition – expect anything from this guy!
Released his album "Exterminate All Rational Thought" including the smash-hit "Me On" on 9 Records in early 2006 and the hit "Powerwalker" on Lützenkirchens label Platform B in 2008.
The way he moves the crowd with his live or dj sets is out of this world, the energy that he generates mixed with the music, his turntable skills wich he´s famous for, something that really has to be experienced.
Since his years playing around the US, clubs like Twilo and as a resident of New York City's legendary Limelight, between 1996 and 2003, he DJ:ed, performed and collaborated with and alongside all the DJ bigshots of that time. NYC is also where he picked up his Afterglow moniker, after DJing last of everyone at the club.
