Aka:
Olivier Giacomotto aka Log, producer and DJ from Bordeaux - France, started his career in 1999. He first got into production by working in recording studios where he learned how to use samplers, mixing desks, effects, computers and music softwares.
From Blues Caf� Studio in Paris to Townhouse Studios in London, Olivier worked with Robert Suhas, Magnus Fiennes, Guy Pratt, Yohad Nevo, Pete Lewis, John Themis, Bond, Lyrics, and various other bands, producers, studio musicians and sound engineers.
Back to Bordeaux, he programs break-beat, drum'n'bass, triphop, hiphop or lounge in electronic projects like Shagshag, Dubweisers or Uprock Massive.
During year 2002 with Shagshag, he won a remix contest organised by NEWS and got his first vinyl released : Plastyc Buddha - Rhodes Royce (Shagshag Remix).
Step by step, Olivier progressively got deeper into techno and started to play as dj with the ProFS system, first edition of Finalscratch.
His mixing sessions can be described as punchy and groovy..... using redsound soundbite sampler, air fx, kaosspad, destructuring the mix with effects is one of his strength.
With the release of Playground, his first EP signed with LUPP (famous belgium music label who already produced many big hits with Stanny Franssen, Filterheadz, Max Walder, Dimitri Andreas, End-jy....), he was selected and played by Carl Cox as one of the ten best titles of April 2004.
