Fake Society: Melchior Productions Ltd + Cem Ozden

We are beyond excited to welcome Thomas Melchior for the first time to Fake Society to perform his live set as Melchior Productions LTD! With a career spanning over 20 years, Melchior showcases his passion and skills thru many releases, aliases, dj sets and live performances. Starting his musical career as composer /singer and keyboarder before moving to London where where he formed his first Jazzfunk band Blipvert Bigtop and performed in warehouses, clubs and pubs. His next project Ohm fused electronic and funkadelic sounds with Soul and Jazz. He was then introduced to the early London Acid House and warehouse underground hooking up with artists like Peter “Baby” Ford, Mark Moore, Big Audio Dynamite, Carl Craig. As the years went by Thomas’ musical interests shifted towards producing more minimal deep- and tracky style House tunes and after touring the USA as member of Lady Miss Kiers’ (Dee Lite) band, Thomas moved to New York in 1996 familiarizing himself with some of the American House and Techno scene before returning to London in ’97 to work with old friend Peter Ford. With the releases quickly mounting under various pseudonyms namely Deepah, Sunpeople, Soul Capsule (all Trelik), Ifach Collective, M-core (all Ifach) etc., Thomas established himself as a pioneer of Minimal House.His more personal London speed garage influenced deep hypnotic and sexy micro house cuts set a new manifesto on his label Aspect Music in 2000. His sound soon was reaching cult status, being supported by producers/DJs like Daniel Bell, Luke Solomon, Ricardo Villalobos, Akufen, Richie Hawtin etc. By now Melchior Productions was being released on the mighty Perlon and Playhouse labels in Germany. He is one of the best living examples of a dedicated, true artist with a deep understanding of the universe. Doors are open at 5pm starting with our resident Cem Ozden warming up the floor followed by the man of the hour ! See you at the pub <3 SUNDAY FEBRUARY 26 17:00 - 23:00 Lion and Lamb - N1 6LG
