Mortimer Barten Mortimer Barten Trier I am a DJ and producer living in Trier, Germany, and I love electronic music. Originally starting off as a drummer, I fell in love with drum machines and samplers in the 90s. As a musician and multi-instrumentalist, the minimalist approach of electronic music is my real challenge. Taking a few elements and turning them into an interesting groove spiced up with melodic stories is my goal. My main genres are techno and house. But beware, I have a parallel life in more laid-back electronic genres. Apart from playing as a DJ, I also play live-sets ranging from ambient to breakbeat. Four to the floor music has been with me since the beginning of the 90s and inspires me again and again. I like to keep an open-mindedness to music and the creative process, and in that, bands like The Prodigy, Beastie Boys, Portishead and Kraftwerk are among the strongest musical inspirations I can think of. As an Ableton Certified Trainer, I give workshops for all levels of knowledge. I am also the contact person for the local Ableton User Group where we regularly exchange over the latest - and sometimes oldest - topics of music production with the Live software.
