Biography
SPEKTRE, the techno brainchild of two of the UK’s most exciting DJ/producers - Filthy Rich and Paul Maddox - was formed through a shared passion for highly inventive electronic music and a mission to push sound boundaries using the most cutting edge technology available. Their trail-blazing attitude has seen SPEKTRE become one of the most notable standout acts in recent years. “SPEKTRE's productions consist of techno that really remembers the rave. Music that is cool but also fun and highly danceable. These guys are just going to get bigger and bigger.” - James Zabiela Consistently creative, innovative and drawing on inspiration from their love of multiple music genres, the fusion of their combined experience allows them to construct their own distinctive brand of techno that defies categorisation and explores an entirely different dimension like no other. SPEKTRE tracks and remixes are regular Top 10 fixtures in the Beatport Techno Chart, gaining critical praise from the music press and DJs worldwide, including such luminaries as Carl Cox, Adam Beyer, Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, Dubfire and UMEK. Whether they are producing mad, peak time bombs, or setting dance-floors on fire with their awesome live sets, these guys are definitely ones to watch and a bright shining light for the shape and sound of techno to come!” - UMEK 2010 saw the release of SPEKTRE’s debut studio artist album Casting Shadows Without Light on their own Respekt label, gaining rave reviews in the press and catapulting them into the consciousness of techno fans worldwide. SPEKTRE’s tour diary sees the duo taking their jaw-dropping performances to all corners of the globe and a dedicated following is growing at an unstoppable pace. With SPEKTRE’s highly anticipated second artist album Cyclic Operations (Toolroom) arriving in November 2013, there will be no stopping this formidable partnership.
