Quotes:
"Bit-Tuner is the master of booming basswalls and sweeping noises"
- 20minuten
"Lowrider bass sounds and angry distortions drive the St.Gallen born producer Bit-Tuner further. His apocalyptic acid-dub-adventures make the dancing crowd's heads nod, while they enter the heart of electronic darkness more and more - and they tesitfy the state of the art quality that the electronic musician recently reached with his exceptional "Drome EP"."
- m4music
"A wild demonstration of hybrid, urban, electronic music"
- Xavière Sennac for Bad Bonn Kilbi / Case à Chocs
"Pretty much the best of what Swiss live electronics have to offer. "
- Christoph Linder / DJ Fett / Planet Rock Booking
"Bit-Tuner is a master of electronic sound architecture."
- St. Galler Tagblatt
"Regardless of the multitude of genres I could throw in here, there is no denying that there is an
undercurrent of sound here at he makes all his own; and that has to be applauded."
- Tony Young, Review on blackaudio
"Sweepingly widescreen but intimately detailed electronic spaces.“
- Boomkat
"Bit-Tuner accomplishes mastery in arousing emotions of trepidation and suspense.“
