Search Party featuring Daniel Bell (Detroit/7^th City/Accelerate)

Friday October 29th, Mercat Basement, Melbourne

Search Party #4 moves into the underground surrounds of the Mercat Basement. When all the LED’s fade and the mp3′s fall silent, that minuscule pop-up lamp on the turntable will still find the groove. Vintage, raw, real. House and Techno music now has a history spanning more than two decades. Daniel Bell was pretty much there from the beginning. From the early 90′s in Detroit he created a distinct, reduced sound and approach to dance music. It paved the way for minimal. Tracks like “Losing Control” under his alias, DBX, became a benchmark. He collaborated with figures like Moritz von Oswald and Richie Hawtin, he set up labels with the likes of Theo Parrish, Rick Wade and Dopplereffekt. His first officially released mix CD was voted by Resident Advisor at #2 of the decade’s best mixes. The Button Down Mind of Daniel Bell (Tresor 2000) became a cult among the initiated and instilled the idea that through less there was possibly more to the dancefloor.

In 2000, before every DJ and their dog had the same epiphany, Daniel moved to Berlin and truly established himself not only as a world citizen but as an artist pivotal in the development of the future of dance music. He is the perfect fit to continue our search. From deep-rooted electronic music history to his current place at the edge of the uber contemporary Berlin dancefloor – the Search Party welcomes back Daniel Bell to Melbourne for one exclusive show. This guy can DJ.
