Philipe de Boyar is a DJ and producer from Switzerland. Getting into electronic music at a young age, he began working the decks as a Techno DJ. Until he heard Daft Punk that is; their first album had a big influence on his musical development during the following years. Nowadays, Philipe incorporates many different styles of music, also from outside the electronic sphere, into his creative output.

Music has become one of the most important things in my life, the Swiss high-riser says today, so when Im listening to music it has to move me physically as well as emotionally. My goal is to share my own joy and fun with the party crowd, be it as a DJ or a producer.

His style is best described as a mixture of House, Electro and Breaks, often taken to different musical directions. So dont be shocked if I suddenly play a skirt rock track just because its a great song.

His tracks have been popping up various big compilations including Octobers 06 MIXMAG cover-mount CD and Philipe de Boyar is grabbing the attention of many DJs and producers around the world. So for the future, there definitely will be more of his releases and remixes - on Erase Records, Hammarskjoeld Records, on his own digital imprint Rockville Music as well as other Labels.

So look out for this up and coming artist who deserves greater popularity!

Statements:

Boy 8-Bit (Body Clap / Southern Fried)

I love 'Formerly Unknown?! Its an awesome track. It gets a fantastic reception every time I play it out. I cant see it leaving my "Box" for quite a while yet!!! It works a treat when you need to build the floor back up again. Excellent track!!

Lars Moston (Moonbootique / Splank! )

"We put 'Formerly Unknown' on our Moston & Malente mix for the 'Kontor - Top of the Clubs' compilation and love to play it out. Always enjoy DJing with Philipe as well, his mix of downright dirty Electro and Breaks rocks the crowd every time. This guy is gonna go far!"

Stama (Erase Records UK / IBreaks Radio)

A new upcoming and promising artist comes here with a rmx to In-Progress tune:

Push that Button! I have checked it on many dancefloors so far and the reactions were great...

Cant wait for more amazing stuff soon!!!

DJ Larse (Radio Eins Live Germany L1VE Klubbing, Targa)

Formerly Unknown is a rough mixture....80's synths like giorgio moroder, mixed with cracking funk breaks and some bits of techno music. Served at the peaktime.....i like!

DJ Touch (Body Clap / Southern Fried / ?The Wiseguys?)

I played "Formerly Unknown" at my last 3 gigs, and it got a really good reaction at each one. Annie Mac (Radio 1) came over and asked what the hell it was! Definitely one of my favourite tracks at the moment. I played "Soulfreaka" as my first tune at The Egg, and that went down very well too.

Malente (Unique / Moonbootique)

Philipe de Boyar is pure fun! Rough party electro! With his tracks I massively bounced Clubs from Australia to Canada!

DJ Friction (Four Music, Complex, Freundeskreis)

Love his tracks! very usefull for rockin the floors...always workin. the crowd gets wild every time!

Watch out for Philipe de Boyar !
