Thor Rixon On Latest “Michele” LP: “This Album Is For My Mom; An Album That She Can Dance To”
Thor Rixon is a very talented South African producer and multi-instrumentalist that has just released his second studio album entitled Michele, after his mother.
Signed to Get Physical, and having spent a lot of time in Berlin over the past two years, Rixon is a musician in the broadest sense of the term, always extremely involved in all aspects of the artistic process.
Enigmatic and industrious, Rixon has taken South African electronic music and performance and molded it, revved it up and dressed it down. He has spent considerable time soaking up Berlin, performing extensively around Europe and South Africa, collaborating with a range of diverse artists, and generally pushing sonic and visual envelopes.
He brings a very unique energy and inventiveness to every project he creates, whether it be in music, film or otherwise. Each of Rixonâs performances are unique, incorporating improvisation and live instrumentation. Grass-fed live sets are characterized by spirited performances; Thor consistently delivers quality productions matched with masterful mixes. This multi-instrumentalist brings a dynamic performance to every atmosphere.
