Gene LeFosse
If you remember Program 2 then you know what Gene LeFosse is all about. Gene has been in the techno scene since techno first emerged in New York in the early 90’s. As program 2 he produced club anthems like “Dominator”, “The Omen” and “Twister”. At this time he was signed to Vortex Records and was a resident performer at Limelight (NYC), when Jeff Mills was a resident DJ. Gene remixed legendary groups like Yello, Orbital and Human Resource.
In 1992 Gene was signed to major label Sire Records/Warner Bros. and released the album “Robotix”. The next few years Gene was busy working on all different types of electronic music. He also started DJing again. In 1998 his Djing picked up. He spent most of 1998 and 1999 spinning in Europe. He traveled to Love Parade in Germany, the Vision Party in the Swiss Alps and Techno Parade in France. His set is combination of funky grooves and tribal techno. He has spun along side Sven Vath, Carl Cox, Jeff Mills, Adam Byer, Dave Clark, Misstress Barbara and Oliver Ho.
In 2000 Gene started his own label, Convolute Recordings. His first three releases “Spank Me”, “Night Walker” and "Peyote are already supported and played by Danny Tenaglia, Sven Vath and Jeff Mills. In 2001 Gene has accomplished many goals sooner than expected. Gene received a call from Sven Vath approving the release of Gene's remix of Strahlemann Sohne, which is the next single from Sven's Album. Along with releases on Convolute and Tension Records, Gene will be releasing an E.P on Surgeon’s record label Counter Balance, UK, and for one of Laurent Ho’s UWE record labels. Gene has also submitted material to Kobayashi Records. His music has been used for various licensing deals with MTV and other media projects. The most challenging project Gene has undertaken is the remix of Jennifer Lopez's song "Play" And Jamiroquai "you give me something".
Gene just finished his remix for Tori Amos,Titled Don’t make me come to vegas. For her upcoming Single on Sony.
Although Gene mainly produces techno, he was able to take "commercial" sounding tracks and give them his own flavor.
