Regent (DE)

Emerging in Berlin post-pandemic, Regent has steadily grown into one of the capital's most promising new figures. Born and raised in the city, his sound has been eagerly taking stock of its unparalleled past and carving out an aesthetic in service of its future. Cerebral and machine-based at its core, Regent’s music riffs instinctively on this rich heritage, unfolding through inventive motifs and layered compositions built to reward close attention.



Always seeking forward motion, Regent moves fluidly across techno’s spectrum from tripped-out depths to surging ascents – often drawing from an extensive archive of unreleased material to preserve a sense of exploration and singularity. What began at off-location parties around Berlin in his youth has since evolved into performances at key institutions such as Tresor, RSO and Bassiani, where his sets unfold in a measured dialogue of control and release.

His time in the studio has been just as productive, with an abundance of releases on labels like Mutual Rytm, ARTS and Clergy, and Blue Hour and Philippa Pacho’s Positive Source and Phorum to name a few. 
Recently expanding the project into a live format, Regent presents a more direct, risk-forward iteration of his sound, revealing new detail in real time and pushing its physicality further. Guided by perpetual curiosity, he continues to refine a distinct past-meets-future identity through focused productions, immersive live performances and standout mixes.
