Over a career spanning ten years, Justin Berkovi has created ground breaking experimental electronica (Charm Hostel LP, 1998, Force Inc.), produced pounding club techno (Black and Orange EP, 2003, Terminal M Records) and provided classic techno hits (In The Bag, 1999, Harthouse). As well a passion for music production, Justin has proved a fanatical live performer taking his live sets all over the world from the big European festivals to the most intimate of techno clubs. Alongside his production and live gigs, Berkovi heads up the Predicaments and Nightrax labels. The former having played host to artists such as DJ Rush, Miss Kittin (Jockey Slut having labeled 2002’s My Voice EP a ‘Hit’), Adam X, Subhead and Dave Tarrida among others; and having gone from strength to strength since its first release (one of Justin’s own) was branded 'Techno Tune of the Month' by Mixmag. Three years since his last long player, Justin returns with new album Passion (2004, Music Man Records). Textured melodies, deep subliminal chords and sparkling percussive elements sum up an inspired techno album being showcased in live gigs across Europe. While 2003 saw Justin team up with DJ Rush for a series of groundbreaking live shows, this tour sees a more musical live set on the road – club techno with a distinct Detroit edge. Passion showcases a true original talent and energy
