Биография

Individualist is an Afro-acoustic, deep house production duo based in Germany. Comprising Wayne de Villiers from South Africa and Rob Collomb from Canada, the duo met by chance in front of the latter’s studio and decided to make electronic music together, before evolving into a proper live group and production duo. Their music is characterised by colourful, swinging house beats with deep roaring basses, earthy acoustic instruments and glitchy sonic landscapes - a culmination of Wayne’s deep roots in South African house music, Rob’s background in music studies and a passion for raw analogue sounds. The beats and bass are created on an analogue synth, while the guitars, keys, harmonica and vocals are recorded live, resulting in raw and honest house music with a decidedly indie aesthetic and a sound that is uniquely their own. Prolific producers, the duo have released dozens of tracks on various labels in Germany(Chibar Records), Switzerland(ShowTime), Dubai(Bush Doctor Recordings), Singapore(Surrender), England(Handpicked), South Africa(Deep House Cats and CandidBeings)and the USA(Vinyl Moon) including remixes from the likes of FKA Mash, ChronicalDeep, BuddyNice, Paul B and Tahir Jones.
