Biographie de Bakermat

Bakermat (born October 8, 1991) is the stage and performing name of Dutch electronic and house DJ and producer Lodewijk Fluttert, from Markelo, Netherlands.

Fluttert’s earliest musical excursions began when the Dutchman was studying psychology at Utrecht University, and after discovering deep house music started moonlighting as a DJ in his spare time. The young DJ began honing his skills and following his interests and released a pair of EPs “Zomer” and “Vandaag” in 2012. The latter of which “Vandaag” features the single “I Have a Dream” which samples Martin Luther King Jr.’s infamous speech and got a rerelease by Sony Music in 2014. The EPs brought Fluttert to the attention of a number of electronic house labels and he subsequently signed with the dance agency Soulmax in 2012.

With label backing Bakermat released his “Uitzicht" EP in 2013 which propelled the producer into several dance charts acrosss Europe and brought Fluttert international acclaim. Led by the single of the same name, Fluttert released his fourth EP “Teach Me” in 2014 on the Dirty Soul Music division of Be Yourself Music. Inspired by gospel, soul, blues and jazz, the EP is a melodically inclined sample-laden affair with artists including Shirley Ceasar, and led to a string of high-profile DJ gigs, the producer’s first tour of the U.S. and a slot at the EDM festival Tomorrowland.

Avis

It’s hard enough convincing people that saxophones have a place in pop music in general, and that’s a pretty obvious truth. Imagine how difficult it must have been for 22 year old Dutch born musician and producer Bakermat (Lodewijk Fluttert to his mum) to convince people that saxophones would not only work in house music, but he could bring a saxophonist on tour with him and not be laughed out the building every single night. It must have taken a lot of faith to let him try it out but it would have also taken just one concert to prove that Bakermat had stumbled on an idea with more than a touch of genius to it. It gets even weirder when you realize that Bakermat writes what is ostensibly minimalist techno, and then uses it to send the huge crowds that he commands utterly berserk night after night after night. With his ever present saxophonist by his side. Here’s the thing though, it works. Incredibly well for that matter. His music may not be as obviously energising as some of his peers but the effortless way that Bakermat guides his set through the peaks and troughs that any good DJ set needs could almost be an education in how to make a room full of people go mental. You might seem sceptical for any number of reasons, from the minimalism, to the saxophones. All I can say is, see it for yourself, you will not regret it!
