"[insert random dj-name here] played this track last night about riding a bicycle in Amsterdam, does anybody know what track this is, I need this track!"
This was the question being asked on countless Message Boards, Blogs and YouTube comment threads whenever dj's like, Aeroplane , Boys Noize, Erol Alkan, Fake Blood, or Switch (to name a few) dropped RipTidE's remix of Jennifer Delano's 'Amsterdam'. The tastemakers had spoken… Coming onto the scene with one of THE ubiquitous dance floor destroyers of 2009, he's about to make some bigger waves with his next releases and dj-sets, but where did it all start?
Max Bedeker (1984) fell in love with music whilst on holiday in the South of France aged 11. Hearing Sepultura's 'Roots' album for the first time he was hooked, his first act on arriving home was to buy that album quickly followed by those of Metallica and KoRn. From that short Holiday Romance a life long musical love affair was born….
The biggest push for being a producer/DJ however, came at the Benicassim festival, where he went to see 'this dj called Erol Alkan who did that Franz Ferdinand remix that's pretty good'. After a long long day, very tired, he still made it to the stage, and when he saw and heard him play Boys Noize's remix of Tiga - Move My Body, and then dropped Rage Against The Machine's Killing In The Name Of he knew that that's what he wanted to do: Become a dj.
Slowly building up a studio full of analogue gear Max started delving deeper, not only listening to, but studying classic producers such as Giorgio Moroder and Patrick Cowley. Whilst at the same time concentrating on his own productions, making it his number one priority.
Now finally, after the shock-success of his remix, he's ready to take on the world with his dj-sets and productions. Already he's got some releases coming up on Tommie Sunshine's Brooklyn Fire label, Boemklatsch records, and will be producing other artists as well.
Not only that he’s worked with singer songwriters, bands and even recorded a song with Tibetan monks! There's no telling in what will happen next in the world of RipTidE…
