DJ Set

Zak aka DVS1(devious one), began DJing in New York in the early nineties, focusing on the acid sounds of that time. After relocating to Minneapolis in the mid 90’s, his style evolved, like that of techno itself, into something deeper and more rhythmic. His philosophy is that the genre distinctions themselves aren’t important—the emotional content of the music is. A consummate performer, Zak never maps out his sets ahead of time, opting to craft sets spontaneously from within the context they are intended for. He does this the old-­fashioned way—with bags of wax carefully assembled from his massive record collection. This improvisational element makes each of his sets a one-­of-­a-­kind personal expression, never again to be repeated, in which the audience’s mood and energy level always plays a notable role.
In the past, he has shared the booth and been asked to open for some of the world’s most acclaimed DJ/Producers. As a producer, DVS1 makes music that is simple, effective and captures the feeling of the moment. DVS1’s first release, on Ben Klock's label Klockworks (kw05) was released in August 2009. With his second vinyl release on the legendary TRANSMAT label (MS98 Love Under Pressure EP) DVS1 once again stakes his claim and cements his position among current electronic music tastemakers. Similar to his first release, Love Under Pressure has been received with equal acclaim and charting from his peers. The track "Pressure” was licensed to the infamous Berghain club for Ben Klocks most recent mix CD (Berghain 04). Future releases are already scheduled for Luke Slater (Mote Evolver) and for Klockworks. Remixes on Perc Trax, Prologue, Synewave and more on the way.
