- TOOLROOM / DEEPERFECT / 1605 MUSIC THERAPY / IAMTVodka, crude oil, meticulously engineered self-stacking dolls: Russia is famous for a lot of things. Floor-filling techno is not one of them. Its a good job, then, that Russian producer TESLA has never been driven by musical convention. TESLA, real name Filipp Lozovsky, comes from a small town in Russia. His career received itsignition when one of his early tracks was picked up and supported by Paul van Dyk and UMEK. It was the break TESLA had been waiting for. Since then, his progressive approach to techno has inspired a string of successful releases on heavy weight techno labels like VANDIT, Toolroom, Deeperfect and 1605 the label of legendary technoguru UMEK. Mechanic percussive elements clatter their waythrough chameleon musical landscapes that change colourand shift gear unrelentingly. Piercing synths and menacing bass lines are yet more evidence of the abiding quality thathas seen TESLA become a regular in the charts of leadingclub music portals like Beatport and Trackitdown. Pioneering techno from a small town in Russia? With TESLA it was only ever a matter of time.
