Impulse #08 – Goth-Trad The Far East Assassin

Impulse Dubstep with Goth-Trad

Goth-Trads musikalische Karriere begann in den späten 1990ern: unter dem Synonym Rebel Familia experimentierte der Japaner mit Dub, Jungle und anderen elektronischen Klängen. Dann wurde Deep Medi-Labelboss Mala auf ihn aufmerksam und nahm ihn unter Vertrag. Bereits mit seiner ersten EP „Cut End / Flags“ auf Deep Medi avancierte Goth-Trad schnell zu einem international geachteten „Sound Originator“, der sich durch keinerlei Genregrenzen einschränken ließ. Darüber hinaus veranstaltet Goth-Trad die Reihe Back 2 Chill, mit der er japanischen Bass-Produzenten eine Plattform bietet. Am 30. Mai 2013 spielte er zum zweiten Mal bei der Impulse Dubstep Party im //:about blank. Im Backstage verschanzte er sich mit dem „Impulse“-Team und erzählte mehr über seine Musik und die vielfältigen Tätigkeiten.

In english please: The Name Goth-Trad will nowadays ring a bell in each and every true Dubstep Head. He started his carrer actually in the late nineties and experimented with Dub, Jungle and other electronic sounds under the synonym Rebel Familia which also had close connections to HipHop music. As the time passed by and the Dubstep phenomenon ran lilke a wave over the planet, the Deep Medi label boss Mala was attracted by Goth-Trad`s productions. Subsequently Mala released the first Goth-Trad record in 2007 (Cut End / Flags). In addition to his unique and well perceived productions, Goth-Trad runs a frequent event in Tokyo named Back 2 Chill which is intended to give upcoming producers and DJs an opportunity to play their tunes in front of an „educated“ audience. When Goth-Trad came to Berlin to play his second gig at Impulse, we locked ourselves in the backstage room of ://about blank, sat down with him and recorded a very nice and informative interview.
