Butter Side Up with Evan Baggs (3 Hour Set)

With spring in full swing it seemed more than appropriate to bring in some fresh talent to the BSU camp. This next guest has been making some supremely heavyweight movements in the electronic music stratosphere over the course of the last few years. It’s a real pleasure to introduce y’all to one of the blossoming talents doing the rounds at this very moment in the form of EVAN BAGGS.

The Berlin-based New Yorker has been steadily gaining momentum as he cuts his cloth alongside some of Europe’s finest tastemakers. A regular fixture at two of Berlin’s most treasured sanctuaries, Club Der Visionaire and Hoppetosse, cements the fact that he is as crafty with a pair of 1210s as he is when it comes to supplying his own brand of sleazed out groovers. With only a handful of releases under his belt on stellar imprints such as Kurbits and Cabaret, and no doubt more in his back pocket, Baggs has become synonymous with the new breed of house and techno artists that have started to emerge as real gems of the scene.

If you’re knocking about on the same line-ups as Zip, Ricardo Villalobos, Craig Richards et al then you must be doing something right. It’s difficult to pigeonhole a specific style with this fresh face but it certainly blurs the lines between broken beat, UK garage, techno and a hefty dash of NYC influenced rave thrown in for good measure…definitely a winning formula if ever we heard one!
