Vancouver based deejay- turned-producer, U-Tern, is one of Canada’s best kept musical secrets. This fact is respected as true, amongst those fortunate enough to collaborate with this rising producer. A widely-recognized heavy-hitter in the Vancouver hip-hop circle, U-Tern has produced tracks for internationally acclaimed artists Devin the Dude, Moka Only, Swollen Members, Sweat Shop Union, Josh Martinez, and others.
Heavily influenced by early-era funk and hip-hop acts, and equally inspired by contemporary electronic artists such as Daft Punk, U-Tern brings a uniquely “futuristic-while-vintage” sound. U-Tern’s sound has been cultivated over 10 years of DJ’ing, supported by an exhaustive record collection and musical knowledge, and years of musical study.
In 2007 U-Tern received worldwide attention with his club-friendly remixes of “Set Your Flag On Fire”, and “White Gurl”, released on his electro-boogie EP, “Body Work – Volume 1”. U-Tern’s first vinyl release, the EP quickly sold out and gained him heavy rotation in both the club and radio play lists of many like-minded DJ’s the world over.
In 2007 U-Tern also launched a regularly pod cast internet radio show, “One Day Later”. Archived and broadcast from www.brooklynradio.net, the show has steadily grown its listenership, while serving as a touch stone and a scratch pad where U-Tern can experiment, and reach out to growing fan base.
With many projects and releases planned, including remixes for Major Lazers, Ok Go, San Serac, 7 songs on an upcoming EA video game and an EP with fellow producer/musician Neighbour, 2009 is promising to be another busy year for U-Tern.
