Mike Hiratzka is a consummate artist on a mission to bring his musical vision to the world. An incendiary DJ whose sets have rocked crowds from Hong Kong to London, Mike’s unique, funky fusion of progressive, techno, and electro is an amazing experience whether he is playing peak time sets at the world’s top venues or to the fortunate few at an intimate beach-side party. Many of the signature musical moments of those sets come courtesy of the man himself, as Mike is a gifted producer and engineer whose diverse catalogue of tracks have been hammered by just about every DJ in the world. The names read like a who’s who of dance music: Sasha. Digweed. Oakenfold. Tong. Burridge. Cattaneo. PVD. AVB. The list goes on and on…
Renowned in the dance community for his impeccable production skills, Mike has now expanded his focus into a broader realm of music. He was tapped by Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber, the producers of the legendary downtempo act Delerium, to provide additional production and programming on a new side project. Entitled Fauxliage, it features vocals by Leigh Nash of Sixpence None The Richer (famous for their late 90’s hits ‘Kiss Me’ and ‘There She Goes’) and was released in fall 2007 on Nettwerk Records.
Mike recently joined Delerium on tour, playing bass in the band on their first-ever tour of Europe in May 2008. The highly anticipated dates took the band from London all the way to Moscow, and highlights from the shows were an immediate sensation on YouTube. Also available for the first time on the Delerium tour was Under Cover, an EP of four songs from singer Kristy Thirsk’s new album, tentatively titled Phoenix. Mike co-produced and co-wrote the album, as well as engineering and mixing all of the material.
The D:Fuse & Hiratzka album Skyline Lounge was co-produced and written with fellow DJ and producer D:Fuse and released in 2007 on the duo’s new label, Lost Angeles Recordings. The two spent a year exploring the full spectrum of electronic music, using the full-length format as a platform to push their musical boundaries and craft a true expression of their collective artistic mentality. The album, though based in the realm of electronica, features a plethora of live instrumentation, including vocals, guitar and bass by Mike, as well as vocals and percussion by D:Fuse, and violin by Govinda, who regularly appears with Thievery Corporation. The album also includes collaborations with vocalists including DJ Rap and Kristy Thirsk, as well as up and coming talents Ceci Castelblanco and MC Flint.
