Real Name : Joël Tambour Born the 4th in April 1967 Elektronic Performer,LivePA & producer from France since 96... (His name of Suburbass was inspired by a movie "Suburbia"(1984) by Penelope Spheeris http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086589/ ...a remind of his punk adolescence) Joël Tambour a.k.a. SUBURBASS, singer and Punk follower in the late 70s discovers electronic music with bands such as Kraftwerk, Visage, Klaus Schulse, Tangerine Dream, J.M. Jarre,Herbie Hancock or Grand Master Flash. Thats when he starts working on machines and in particular on a Korg MS20. Mid 80s, the craze for the electro music such as new wave and Goth (Alien Sex Fiend, Clan of Xymox, Cure, Joy Division, Virgin Prunes, Front242,Fad Gadget,Kas Product,DAF,New Order...) confirms his interest for the electronic experiment alongside Metal and Alternative rock tendencies. Then comes the techno-pop turning point but his very first appreciation of AcidHouse music will be particularly selective, as only a few artists such as M.A.R.R.S,Altern8,4Hero,Cybotron,Technotronic,Snap, Prodigy will definitely impress him. With the 90s comes the teknoïd massive wave and his predilection are Dave Clarke,Johannes Heil,Colin Dale,D.A.V.E The Drummer,Neil Landstrumm Liza'n Eliaz,Mental Theo,Adam Beyer,Sven Vath,Joey Beltram, Kriss de Montpellier,Autechre,Orbital,LFO... At the time, still singing in a ska band, Joël encounters the very firsts rave-parties, in particular those of Spiral Tribe. The "freetekno sound" will resolutely be adopted and developed,& Curley, Simon/Crystal Distortion & Seb/69DB from Network23 became his first deep influences . 1996, first live set battle with Alex K/Tekmics...(under names of Joy Strum'X or Spawn23) May 1997: first Teknival live set on « Sound Conspiracy » sound system featuring Simon/Crystal Distortion + Marc/4Q/Total Resistance + Kathy (Facom Unit) + Mc Unwuttu ... UFO/Heretik... & until this time,used to play every weekends in all events he can... Now totally addicted to the repetitive beats, travels through Europe(Germany,Spain,Italy,GB, Holland,Czech Republic,Poland,Austria...) with his faithful live set (machines only) and delivers a nostalgic diversity built upon his numerous sonic experiences. And then played with the large massive electronic scene as Lisa'n Eliaz,Tonio,Laurent Garnier, Manu Le Malin,Torgull,Hellfish & Producer,Network23 crew, Dima aka Vitalic,Heretik,Miss Kittin',Miloch,Juan Atkins, Infrabass,Jeff Amadeus,Fky,Radium,Sycomor, Pushy!,SpeedFreak,Maniaks,MSD, Signal Electrique,Spicy Box, Jack De Marseille,Miss Daisy,Congo Natty, Lunatic Asylum,Willyman,Mempamal,Banditos,Narkotek,Dj Kraft, Miss Helium,Metek Crew,Alif Sound System,Joshua,Radiobomb,Speedyq's,Vinka,Mat/Weasel Busters,Woxo,Gotek,Yale... (& a lot of other artists & sound systems...)... His liveset is a crossover between tekno,hardtechno,schranz,hardtek,hardfloor & hardcore with some reminiscence of samples from metal,EBM,punk,ska,hiphop...sometimes cheesy & ugly, or more dark,mental & deep,acid & spacies... often a tribute at one second art he like,the cinema... and throught his production now, try some new sound experiences like electro-tech-minimal,downtempo-electronica,dub,breakcore,heavy techno,...
