    German born and Amsterdam based Retromigration has been carving out a name for himself in the last year by producing a refreshing and raw sound in his in music. With only a handful of releases under his belt, the producer and DJ with Nigerian and Ghanaian roots, has already made waves with releases on Wolf Music, Rhythm Section, Heist Recording, Healthy Scratch and Handy Records Retromigration is cementing himself as someone to watch. From a young age music was omnipresent in his life and after learning how to play the bass and starting to play classical music at the age of 7 he moved to Jazz, Hip-Hop and House music which is represented in his productions and DJ sets alike. His work is all about reinterpretation, drawing from past forms and repurposing them under new guises, mixing and evolving. While Retromigration may not offer us precise definitions, the same cannot be said of the answer on the dance floor: an international oasis where his refreshing arrangements have quickly found a pulsing identity, a horizon to reach towards and a radiant outflow of other people’s energies, channeling a painstaking pursuit that is never quite complete.
