Music For Elevators
DORIAN CONCEPT (born Oliver Johnson, 1984 in Vienna) is one of the most renowned electronic musicians of his generation in Austria. As a cross-genre 'synthesiser virtuoso', he mixes experimental electronic sounds with jazz, hip-hop and club music in his music. With releases on international labels such as Ninja Tune and Brainfeeder, he quickly became a globally sought-after live act, with tours in Europe, America, Asia and Australia. Because of his unmistakable sound, musicians such as Flying Lotus, Thundercat and Kenny Beats have already asked him to collaborate on their albums. His latest, fourth album "What We Do For Others" was recently released.
