STEVE PAN: Steve Pan is a Chinese DJ, producer, and live performer based in Shenzhen. Member of Techno label Asylum and OIL Soundsystem. He makes use of dub ambient texture sound, cassette tape loop recording, and different elements from Techno, Garage, Downtempo, IDM, Avant-garde, experimental, noise, and more to form his own Music. Fusion between Hi-Art performances, live coding, live mixing, and advanced DJing, in his live set, the audience will have a hypnotic alternate reality experience deeply connected with his complex synthetic sensation. Steve Pan is currently experimenting with cassette recording and tape loop in his production and performance. He is trying to combine vintage analog technology with advanced high-end audio technology to push his sound a step further. Steve Pan has been experimenting with the concept of comparing different eras of time in his work - the known past, the uncertain present, and the unknown future. He also explores the relationship between Chinese philosophical Taoism and western surrealism. Both ideologies have huge influence on eastern and western art work. Tao thought form is a beautiful sequence of synergies of flow that unite past, present, and future, a state of fusion, and surrealism art promotes the creative potential of the unconscious mind and is arrived at by automatism, or the exploitation of chance effects, unexpected juxtapositions.
