Lausanne, Switzerland

Billboard

Stephane Attias debuts as a D.J. in Lausanne Switzerland in 1989 creating a name for himself as a purveyor of soul, funk, hip-hop, house and disco classics. He soon makes his mark on the Swiss underground club scene, hosting various nights and private functions, playing alongside local and international Dj's.
In 1993 he helped launch a new dance show on Swiss national radio RSR/ Couleur 3, called "Cool It Down" where he's been mixing it up every Sunday night during 5 years.
1996 sees the release of his " First Step e.p." on his own Chic Records label, followed by "Listen Luv" earned much attention from many Dj's around the world.
In 2007 Stephane started with his brother Alex a new project "ATTIAS".
The brothers have always been close but with their Spring 2007 debut 12" Nebukai for Chicago Still Music label and their recently released follow up Hiro/Domino for Italian label Reincarnation (an offshoot of Neroli) they have showed that their deep love and understanding of electronic music runs deep. Their local music scene is one of the most vibrant in Europe for electronic music and the duo are close with artists like Mirko, Ripperton, Quenum, Quarion, Sam K and many others in the Geneva / Lausanne axis;
no surprise then that you can say the duo have much in common with the Swiss minimalism of LFP, Quenum, Luciano and others. But it is their love and understanding of Detroit techno that has brought them to the attention of Carl Craig and a home on Planet E. And it is that love that is reflected here in the appropriately titled "Analysis" single. The title reflects both the duos approach to techno here but also their own personal searches in life. Like much of the best in electronic music there is a progressive searching pulse in the music. Here is a new 2007 look at what techno can be. Fresh and alluring it is sure to bring the brothers a new wave of attention and respect.
