Bio :
Inhale the difference!,Rolling with Geneva's groundbreaking Mental Groove Records crew during the early nineties, Blunt dealt with customers at the record store as well as with artists when producing events. Not hearing his ideal mix out at night, he gave in to DJing in 1995, playing techno, house, drum & bass, downtempo music throughout Geneva & Switzerland as well as in France, Spain, Germany and Chile.
He cofounded the Database, a downtown building housing several music production studios (i.e. The Young Gods, Quenum...) and the Basic.ch live web radio, featuring DJ sets webcast daily since 1998 with over ten thousand hours archived and guests including The Orb's 'Dr.' Alex Paterson, Miss Kittin or Diplo; the regular schedule has counted over 100 shows and club nights from locations worldwide. He was also the trusted, first booking agent of Swiss producer-DJs such as Luciano.
As music director of the short-lived if highly rated deep and minimal house club NORMA in 2004, Blunt booked allnighters by the likes of Maurice Fulton, DJ Gregory or the Idjut Boys, having been a programmer for several dancefloor/electronic music events in Geneva, many of them on behalf of the City. He's ghostwritten scores of independent label promo and artist bios, eventually crossing over to profiling artists and scenes as a music journalist and panelist in European mags and festivals.
Now based in San Francisco, Blunt spins a unique blend of dubby and melodic afro/latin-tinged house, rumored to have special healing powers...
