Behind the successful production of Antix are the brothers Hayden and
Barton Strom. Making music together since 1999 and are today working
full time as producers in their Slowburning Studios, Auckland New
Zealand
What has made Antix such a success? Here's a little view of their
backgrounds that has for sure shaped them as producers. Both Barton and
Hayden were introduced to music at a young age, listening to music from
their parent's vast record collections. They quickly became addicted to
the hypnotic sounds of trance in '95 when a friend handed them a tape
urging them to check it out.
Barton instantly purchased a mixer and started DJ'ing at small parties
in the growing Auckland scene. Six months later he had moved to Japan
to buy studio equipment and teach himself the art of production, where
Hayden later joined him.
Together they returned to New Zealand, setting up various studios
around Auckland and refining a sound, which really came together once
they moved to the West Coast of the North Island and set up Slow
Burning Studios in '99. The sound that seemed to evolve was a kind of
minimal organic groove influenced by the European sound being played by
DJ Philipp from Plastik Park and Anti from Spiral Trax.
It wasn't long before a connection was made when Philipp toured
Australia and New Zealand in 2000, and Antix were signed for their
first 12"(Rainstick) on Plastik Park. Since then Antix have published
almost 50 works.
From there the brothers have toured the globe extensively with their
first trip to Europe in 2001 and have been back every year since. In
this time the two have managed to put a few of the "big ones" under
their belts, playing the VooV and U-Site Fusion Festival in Germany,
The Boom in Portugal, and The Rainbow Serpent in Australia as well as
Fabric in London to play alongside other respected artists for the
annual New Zealand music night.
In 2003 Antix completed their long awaited debut album "lull" released
on the Danish label Iboga Records, which has been fervently received by
fans and critics alike, the world over. Lull is acclaimed for it's
smooth production and the trademark percussive flair of Antix.
Recurrent mention too has been made of its remarkable range; it's
ability to work in a club or under the stars, it's combination of old
school tricks and new techniques, the mystery of it's deep and fat
pulsating bass lines alongside it's uplifting, sexy atmospheres. Some
have even been driven to proclaim it as their soul saviour. It is no
surprise then that their 3rd world tour in 2003 was a great success,
with dates being played in Denmark, Sweden, Croatia, Japan, Portugal,
Switzerland, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Austria, Australia, New York,
Mexico France and of course New Zealand.
2004 was a busy year for the brothers with the birth of their new
project "Fiord" completing remixes for " Fitalic "Vapour (AUS), Bedrock
(UK) and 19 Box (JAP). Locally in New Zealand a remix of a the "he
Fanatics" track "Girl" which was nominated for the best remix of 2004
in the B- net music awards. Also a remix of an other local, Rhian
Sheehan's "Hiding Place" which is out now on his remix album "Music for
Nature Doco's" on LOOP Recordings and to start the year rolling the duo
are clubbing up a Pitch Black track from their new album Ape to Angel
as well as teaming up with Auckland DJ Rob Salmon. On top of all this
they seem to find time to write commercially for film and television
under their company Slowburning Studios.
And hot off the press the new Antix album has just been completeted
."Twin Coast Discovery" is for sure an exciting progression from "Lull"
and is scheduled to hit the streets around the end of April 2005 on
Iboga Records. "With tighter kick drums, layers of beats, and vocoded
efx it has shifted their sound into a progressive tech/house space. Its
release should propel them forward to even greater things". STAY TUNED |
