Pythagoraz
is the solo-act of Danish Trance Producer:
Rasmus Tue Jørgensen, born 1983 in Copenhagen and also known
as one half of the Progressive Trance group ‘TimeDrained'.
He started
playing classical piano as a child. After Elementary School, he
attended different music schools, where he played piano in bands and
studied music theory. He was introduced to the computer as a musical
workstation by a teacher at one of these schools and he started
making music using the software sequencer 'Cubase
vst.'. For a few years he had freelance jobs for Ark Studio,
a recording studio in Copenhagen where he mostly produced Hip Hop
and other sorts of popular music.
In 2000 he
was introduced to some of Iboga Records'
minimalistic Trance by a friend and was immediately blown away by
the atmospheric ambient sounds and deep bassy rhythms. He started
making electronic dance music in his spare time. Around Christmas
2004 he decided to concentrate on making Progressive Trance,
and in 2005 he got his first release on
Dance N Dust Records.
Pythagoraz'
style is heavily based on the elements in electronic dance music
which provoke you into the trance-like state that can be achieved
when dancing to monotone rhythms.
His sound can be described as a mixture of bright atmospheric sounds
and uplifting synthesisers that float around and rip holes in
ambient soundscapes,
while tight rhythms of crunchy drumloops and deep basslines
make out for the steady and danceable foundation.
