Wonderment Presents

Bassically is an energetic and persuasive take on the rave experience. With no loops, playback, or click track it draws the soul out of the machine by putting the human back in the computer and out again. It is a lush and restless deconstruction of the metronomic dancefloor that will widen your vision of what dance music is, and of what it can come to be.

Bassically are a live house music collective led by award-winning, multi-platinum producer and composer Raz Olsher. Bassically crafts sophisticated techno and compulsive house music out of LIVE instrumentation. The result is a dazzling live performance that takes its cue from the early electronic sounds of Detroit, Berlin, and London, with flesh-and-bone musicians physically playing pieces usually programmed by machines. By not repeating inherited formulas, Bassically throws dance music’s rulebook out of the window. It completely disregards prescriptions, preferring to help mature modern electronic music by extending instrumental techniques. Bassically’s music is thought-provoking and fluid: it is music that engages your brain as well as moves your feet.

With releases on the respected Noir Music and Black Butter Records Bassically gained a following all over the world. Having captivated audiences, from volcanic caves in Lanzarote to the cutting edge Station to Station Festival at the Barbican in London, the warm organicism of their live shows attracted support from some of House music's biggest pioneers with the likes of Kerri Chandler, Shadow Child, Matthew Herbert, Âme and DJ Zinc are already aboard the Bassically bandwagon.

Bassically will be found everywhere from dark warehouses and nightclubs to outdoor beach parties on the islands of Ibiza and Kho Phangan . The ensemble’s live show will give audiences something fresh and exciting by crafting its performances like a continuous DJ set, mixing original material uninterruptedly with reinterpretations of dance classics. The communion between dancefloor and band will guarantee that no two shows will ever be the same.
