Theophile Gatte, bio
Raised between Paris, New York and Montreal, Theophile’s connection to vibrant cultural havens allowed an early encounter with a variety of art forms. After experiencing enriching exhibits, performances and concerts, his first electronic music show swiftly grabbed his attention as it stood at a liminal space between these different means of expression.
As a teenager, Concrete Berlin’s endless afterhours introduced him to club culture and led him down the city’s rabbit hole where his passion for techno and its transcendent potential blossomed. Never delving into producing or DJing himself, he remained an avid observer relishing in the social and artistic networks that form around dance music.
After moving to Los Angeles to pursue an art history degree, he discovered a growing underground techno scene where lineups were becoming increasingly international and cutting-edge. Contact with the local techno community in LA led him to write for Dirty Epic, allowing his fondness for both criticism and electronic music to work in synergy.
