RSLANE

RSlane is an Algerian talented artist who can be consider as one of the innovators of the electronic music in the North African region. During the past decade, his commitment has been the one to promote a radical cultural change, which aim was, to merge the dark techno sound of Berlin with the melodic modes used in the traditional Arabic music. His intimate understanding of the theory, musical history, and cultural influences brought him to become, at the age of 29, a popular DJ, a label owner (Duck it Records) and the CEO for a major marketing services, PR & Corporate Communication agency, also based in Algeria. RSlane began his career in 1999, as a professional DMC Scratch DJ, mostly inspired by the hip hop that was his early sonic stomping ground in the mid- to late ‘90s. Few years later, he discovered electronic music and instantly fell in love with the driving 4-4 beat of House and Techno. RSlane - who built up an impressive music collection whilst travelling for satisfying his compulsive desire to spend hours searching for music, cites his influences as Laurent Garnier, Derrick May and Chemical Borthers while production-wise Ricardo Villalobos is an inspiration.
