Dandy Jack

Sobre

Dandy Jack is closely associated with Frankfurt-based experimental ambient and techno artists such as Victor Sol, Niko Heyduck, <a href="spotify:artist:1LGHtz93pVltgUC8QVLlTp">Atom Heart</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1zdrhzkCEqTrUrIiRzVeQ3">Pete Namlook</a>. Originally of Santiago, Chile, Dandy Jack relocated to Frankfurt in the late '80s, where he began releasing solo and collaborative works on Pod, Geometrik, Fax, and, most recently, <a href="spotify:artist:1LGHtz93pVltgUC8QVLlTp">Atom Heart's</a> Rather Interesting label. His first 12-inch appeared on Pod under the name Gon, a hard techno single recorded with <a href="spotify:artist:1LGHtz93pVltgUC8QVLlTp">Atom Heart</a>. His more recent Fax releases -- two albums with Victor Sol as XJacks, and the <a href="spotify:artist:1zdrhzkCEqTrUrIiRzVeQ3">Namlook</a> collaboration Amp -- have perhaps earned him the widest recognition, but his finest work to date has appeared under his own name on Rather Interesting: the experimental house groover Dandy Jack and the Cosmic Trousers and Dandy Jack and the Plastic Woman, the latter a mix of fizzy ambient, heavily syncopated electro, and jazzy, experimental electronica. Dandy Jack also performed live as a part of <a href="spotify:artist:1LGHtz93pVltgUC8QVLlTp">Atom Heart's</a> <a href="spotify:artist:7D9nC7qwp4sjDO88bjT5mY">Lassigue Bendthaus</a> band during their "Render" tour, and has appeared on Rather Interesting's Real Intelligence compilation and Geometrik's Electronic Generators. ~ Sean Cooper, Rovi
