UMEK / Sam Wolfe

About

What’s 2 meters tall, lives Behind the Iron Curtain, and has 1605 reasons to run an awesome label? Meet **UMEK**, a techno legend from Slovenia who is personally responsible for kickstarting the electronic music scene in his home country by first organizing illegal raves and then becoming one of Slovenia’s most wanted export products and number one music ambassador to the whole world. Visiting almost every continent each year, UMEK's gig diary ranges from dark underground clubs in Berlin to massive techno stages on world’s most renowned festivals. Apart from making his name in the DJ booth, he’s also a tireless producer. He mostly releases on his own imprint 1605, and most of his tracks end up on the very top of Beatport’s charts.
