About Glitterbug (aka Till Rohmann, Cologne-based producer)
Based mostly in Cologne (with exhaustive global miles and one foot in Israel) glitterbug has spent the last 5 years establishing the c.sides platform and renowned electronic music festival in Israel and the last decade in countless projects - from his epic, heartbreaking dancefloor mad dj sets (with impeccable 3 turntable mixing skills), to composing film music, experimental radio play, creating video and audio installations to curating exhibitions, lectures and endless public events, glitterbug's engine has been roaring with multitude of platforms for creativity around the world and drawing his very special global fan base.
Glitterbug started developing his unique musical racket and hum in the late 80s in illegal acid parties and continued in Cologne's experimental techno scene in the 90's, strongly infused with a deep love for gay house music, the early Chicago and the later Detroit sound. Combining the many worlds his feet tap in, glitterbug has been trying to bring together new ideas, notions, content and emotions into new flavors that always are aimed at the heart. Since 2004 glitterbug has spent much of his time in Israel performing on a hectic DJ schedule and helping to develop the independent techno scene in Israel through artist exchanges, bookings and the esteemed c.sides festival for electronic music and critical media arts, which he co- initiated and co-curates since its beginning in 2004. In between all of this, he is still finding time for extensive touring- mainly in the USA and Japan, if he is not running around in the Middle East or stuck in his studio.
In 2008, glitterbug released the groundbreaking album 'supershelter' that received massive critical acclaim for its innovative perspective, new rare use of sounds and by some journalists even declared as a historic milestone of electronic music.
