Alien Disko is back for another round of madness as we descend to La Belle Angele for our second summer event, and it's a special one. We are super excited to announce that one of our favourite Neurofunk producers will be joining us for a night of carnage (and his Scottish Debut!) - Alien Disko presents: Xaetis. ----------------------------------------------------------------
Bristol-based 24-year-old Louis Parker otherwise known as - XAETIS (pronounced “Zay-tis”) has been recognized as a man of many talents throughout his career and has risen within the drum and bass community. Specialist in combining the aggressive carnage of old school Neuro, new wave dnb, and dark thundering techy rollers. Synthesizing his own twist of outer-worldly sounds from his past and current inspirations in drum and bass, electronic music, post-rock, prog/metal and psychedelia - these musical backgrounds along with his passion for bass music have quickly made him a noticeable name in the scene.
In 2018, XAETIS moved to Bristol to study Music Production at BIMM. This is where his love for drum and bass catalyzed, quickly immersing himself into production. “I remember going to a Jungle event at Motion for the first time in Bristol, and I just instantly felt like I was home…”.
Fast forward to 2020, XAETIS formed his label EXPEDITE Records with his partner Jon a.k.a. - ON|IT. This label targets the formerly unsung talent of the UK's ever-growing Neuro / New wave heavy DNB scene. With a debut label takeover already taken place in 2022 and their own events to begin their showcase in 2023!
His former influences include an eclectic mix of electronic music including the mezmerizing Boards of Canada, pioneer Aphex Twin, and electronic dance wizard John Hopkins. As well as an extensive post-rock and prog-metal background with bands the likes of This Will Destroy You, Animals as Leaders, Meshuggah, and many more. In modern times XAETIS has now focused his attention on some of the most highly regarded producers and artists in the scene such as Noisia, Current Value, Audio, Mean Teeth, Magnetude, Gydra, and many more. Taking all this inspiration XAETIS sets out to create some immense waves onto the scene with an ever-evolving and absurdly heavy sound.
XAETIS' Career is now at the tipping point, with ever-growing production abilities and development of his craft behind the decks. He's landed festival sets at Darkshire in the Woods 2022 after his feature LP 'Leviathan LP' released on Sinful Maze - one of Czech Republic's leading dnb labes pushing a fresh perspective of the genre to the world. He has further landed a set at Neuroheadz Festival supporting Pythius and State of Mind after demonstrating his DJ skills with his guest mix on the Neuroheadz SoundCloud. Other performances have featured collaborative back 2 back sets with NIALLO in both Expedite and Yamatai takeovers at events in Bristol and London, supporting the likes of Gyrofield, Freshney and the Stellar residents.
With some big shows to come this summer, XAETIS is bringing some of his best mind-bending music with him along the way to make it his most promising year yet!
