Rodriguez Jr.

About

Rodriguez Jr. doesn't just produce music; he sculpts sonic landscapes, bending melodies and rhythms into immersive experiences. This isn't your typical deep house fare. Drawing from a rich tapestry of influences – the cinematic scope of Tangerine Dream, the hypnotic pulse of early Detroit techno, and a dash of Morricone's cinematic drama – Rodriguez Jr., Olivier Mateu, crafts a sound that is both deeply introspective and irresistibly danceable. He initially made waves as one half of the revered French electro duo The Youngsters, but his solo career has seen him truly blossom. Breakthrough moments include his acclaimed albums *Bittersweet* and *Blisss*, each a masterclass in melodic construction and atmospheric depth. Beyond the club circuit, his music evokes a feeling of wanderlust, connecting listeners to a wider, more emotional spectrum. Collaborations with artists like Laurent Garnier and Booka Shade underscore his respected position within the electronic music community. Rodriguez Jr. continues to tour globally, refining his dynamic live performances and pushing the boundaries of what a DJ set can be, most recently with the release of new tracks that hint at a bolder, more experimental direction.
