As we understand it, Mytron took it upon himself to rework two tracks from Calypso Records’ ‘Take Away’ series. After hearing the results, label bosses Thomass Jackson and Inigo Vontier were so impressed, they decided to release the music themselves. It’s not difficult to hear why. Top work once more from Mytron, both of his versions are excellent.

It falls to London-based Mytron to bring the curtain down with the scuzzy disco of "You Only Live Once". As you'd expect from a man who spends his fair share of studio time with In Flagranti's Sasa, this wonky groove has all the VHS scuzz, cut and paste roughness and full scale sleaze of a vintage Codek release. This is music for the dingier disco.

A follow-up EP that has broad-spectrum appeal on one of our most favourite labels when it comes to unpredictable dance floor gems. (Lodown Magazine)
One part Caribbean island fruit blend, one part Mood Hut groove, one part Ramzi deepness. These guys got it. (Worldwide FM)
An EP of rootsy, tropical disco vibes and oddball, primitive-sounding machine funk. There’s something for most tastes, and the emphasis is on fun throughout. (DJ Mag)
Pan-European DJ and producer Mytron was born in Poland, raised in Holland, then Germany, and has been living in London for more than a decade. His releases, for Bongo Joe, Codek, XXX, Multi Culti and Calypso herald a similarly nomadic spirit.
A multi-instrumentalist who landed in London as synthesisers were taking centre stage again, inspiring his own first dancefloor output, he soon became immersed in Peckham’s club scene as a DJ. These influences and more refract into a hardware-driven spectrum of sound stretching from the playfully percussive and sun-baked to darkly funky electronics.
It's a finely-fused psychedelic journey through groove, pausing for stopovers in rainforest rhythm, intergalactic electronica and otherworldly Afro-house.
Past output as Mytron & Ofofo, a partnership with In Flagranti’s Sasa Crnobrnja, saw the duo hit European venues such as Lithuania’s Opium Club and Barcelona's Razzmatazz. Dispensing a heady cosmic brew of mid-tempo mysticism, his own DJ sets are accentuated by personal edits, illustrating a palette as at home in Afro Cuban grooves or European post-punk as it is in leftfield techno.
His hardware live set turns the extensive Mytron studio inside out, implementing samplers, synths, drum machines and a vocoder to create a chuggy, druggy, fuggy ride through tweaking outernational acid. With its raw funk and tripped-out melodies it's setting the scene for an inevitable soaring segue into hazy transcendence.
