Artist
MOTSA
While residing in Scotland, half-Austrian/half-Russian Valerio Dittrich a.k.a MOTSA immersed himself within UK bass/electronic culture. He became a student to the sounds he uncovered in Scotland and found pure inspiration - enough so to write, produce and play his own music, now out of his native Vienna.
Devoting hours of energy to his compositions, Valerio's aptitude for production has only grown exponentially in the past few years. Although initially inspired by what he heard while living in the United Kingdom, Valerio has not limited himself to solely become a pastiche of a scene for which he has fond memories, but has actively sought out sounds and textures from the vast spectrum of electronic music. This in turn has allowed him to create diverse and unique tracks, which all share a common quality with their bass led, beat driven, soulful and harmonic edge.
MOTSA's ability to combine his unique artistic flair with the musical diversity he employs, has garnered the attention of several influential figures and tastemakers. International dance icon, Sasha, included "Sleepless Nights" on his compilation for MixMag, another download site named 'Untitled' one of the top tracks of it's year and i-D, THUMP, Eton Messy, Annie Mac and XLR8R are all included in his surplus of supporters. His collaboration with Sasha however was no one off, and has recently provided remixes for his very own Last Night On Earth.
MOTSA has found himself in the enviable position of being recognized and revered by the like of John Digweed, Adam Freeland, Nick Warren and Maribou State. This list only continues to grow with each incredible remix for established acts in the field. No more so than his growling take on 2 Bears' 'Son Of The Sun' and a perfectly put together reworking of Submotion Orchestra as part of the 'Colour Theory' remix package.
To say that MOTSA has broken through would be an understatement, his momentum only continues exponentially in with the release of each original record. His debut EP on the prestigious Southern Fried Records for example received critical acclaim and 9/10 reviews from dance music gospels Mixmag and DJ Mag. It pushed the parameters of his own sound that did not go unnoticed by his fellow peers. Supported by the likes of Breach, Eton Messy, Bwana and more, MOTSA is strongly on the radar of some of the best in the industry.
This recognition is entirely well deserved, for MOTSA is a musician driven by a desire to convey his serious love for sounds and intriguing methods to create his music. This passion is furthermore conveyed in his live performance for which he will be taking across Europe in 2016 to support his two forthcoming EPs on Southern Records that highlight his diverse ability behind a production desk.
