Tomas Drex PODCAST 037 - guestmix by Makarov

Makarov was already in his 16 age amazed of electronic music and artists such as Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, CJ Bolland, Bandulu, The Advent, Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force... One year later he started practicing on his first turntables and in a very short period of time, he found his own technique of mixing, which was heavily influenced by early Electro Funk, Hip-Hop music & Turntablism. That's why his mixing style also consists of scratching and many more tricks and techniques with turntables. His mixing style was also a very unorthodox style in that time in the Czech Republic. Because of that, Makarov came into the attention of many party people and promoters. Thanks to his diligence and hard effort he gave out, he soon performed in some of the biggest events in the Czech Republic like Summer Of Love Festival, Apokalypsa, Citadela & Technomasters, as well as radio and television shows. Since 2011, he started producing his own music along with DJ Steen, based on a structure of a deep, massive bassline and strong sounds. Their first releases were signed on labels such as Naked Lunch, Mastertraxx & Focus Records. Supported and played by artists like Dave Clarke, Mike Humphries, Joey Beltram, Slam and many more... In October 2012, Cisco Ferreira aka The Advent discovered his talent and decided to give him an opportunity to release his tracks on his own label Kombination Research along with his best friend - DJ Steen. In this time Makarov has innovated his own vision of Techno and every day he continues to raise the style to a whole new level. Check his new releases on Shimering Records Berlin and Pragmatik Recordings. Info: https://www.facebook.com/janmakarovcz http://www.beatport.com/artist/makarov/244662
