Tracks
Music is a life necessity for Gregor Salto,
who has been dj-ing and producing extensively since his early teens.
Never satisfied with just one particular sound, Gregor constantly
seeks to cross existing boundaries and take on new challenges. That’s
how he could rise to the top as one of Holland’s most successful dance
artists, while simultaneously using his own label G-Rex and side
projects like Unite to further widen his musical scope.
Young Gregor was struck by the house virus when he first heard Royal House’s
classic anthem Can You Party at a school dance. He then decided his
life wouldn’t be fulfilling without making beats of his own. After
some years of experimenting on his dad’s Amiga, Gregor debuted in 1994
with 'Pangaea' on 'Fire & Ice' a sub-label of Amsterdam’s legendary
'Outland Records'. Many other releases followed, mostly in the club
house and trance genre, under monnikers like Luna Mora and The Beach
House Brothers.
But it would take another decade of hard work before
Gregor had his first big break. Can’t Stop Playing, a catchy house
tune produced with Dr. Kucho, skyrocketed to the Top 40 in 2004. That
was the start of Gregor’s ongoing roller-coaster ride through Dutch
clubland, dj-ing anywhere from the smallest of backwater barns to the
vastest of innercity superclubs and headlining most of the country’s
leading festivals. Gregor has even extended his fame to most European
countries, the Middle East, Africa, South America and the Caribbean.
He obviously knows what it takes to rock a dancefloor – something he’s
still proving every day of the weekend from behind the decks.
Tracks like Mas que nada, Lambada 3000 and La Diosa Misteriosa seem to
underline Gregor’s identity as a latin house artist. Yet his interests
have always extended to a wider variety of styles. Gregor loves to
incorporate organic influences into the digital world of electronic
music – genres like soul, samba, jazz or salsa. His own label G-Rex
has proven to be the perfect platform for more adventurous endeavours.
For his forthcoming debute album (due end of 2010) Gregor has even
produced a traditional reggae track called Unite, featuring Antillian
singer Junior.
Through his label and through numerous studio collaborations, Gregor
has come across many talented musicians. To stage this diverse group
of artists and at the same time showcase the different aspects of his
own musical identity, Gregor has launched Unite. During these long,
latin, jazz and soul flavoured d-jam sessions, everything seems to
come together. Because however versatile Gregor’s music, all of it
carries the same distinct and captivating flavour.
Gregor’s consistency and unrivaled productiveness made him an
extremely popular remixer (anyone from Axwell to Roger Sanchez and Bob
Sinclar). It has also kept him in the top ranks as one of Holland’s
most in demand dj’s and producers. Mr Salto proves that love for the
music and hard work can help anyone conquer the music world.
