CURVER
Electro RockDescribing himself more as a record collector than a DJ, Curver nonetheless enjoys building sonic universes based on the tracks he chooses. He revisits his discography through the lens of a fusion between classical and electronic music, an extension on the turntables of this audacious one-night collaboration with Rockerill.
