Monotunes? These are the two guys with that driving, deep sound. The DJ duo is less than two years old in this line-up and yet their musical language is already loud and clear. The story started with no less an event than the after show of the Pollerwiesen Festival in 2015 where Dortmund HipHop veteran Nils was to play his first electronic gig quite unexpectedly. Of course, Soulmate Philo had even more experience and endless buck at his side with lots of beer. A fat set and a dance floor full of enthusiastic people later, the Monotunes 2.0 were born. Since then the guys have been working meticulously on their sound. Producing podcasts, mixtapes and songs – sometimes in pairs, sometimes with support from their large musical network and using every free second they don’t spend with job or family. With his passion for ever new hardware, techno junkie Nils provides the tools that, together with Philos’ many years of experience and creativity, form the perfect basis for the monotunes sound.

As residents they also regularly put their musical stamp on the ‘Tabula Rasa’ series. Understandably, label boss Ante Perry secured these two talents for Be an ape without hesitation. With the EPs Bazille and Perception, the first two releases were a big hit – none other than Pete Tong awarded the track “Delacroix” in his cult show on BBC Radio 1.
