The Artist Behind 'Volatil'
Beneath the moniker 'Volatil,' lies the passionate Argentine Nicolas Hardmeier, a music producer with a story of exile and evolution that took him from Argentina to the vibrant music scene of Spain. His journey, fuelled by an undying love for sound, has been marked by a wealth of experience that informs his craft to this day.
From Rocking Europe with 'Golem System' to Solo Exploration
Nicolas' significant tenure with the band 'Golem System' saw the production of four albums, each one a chronicle of their expansive European tours and diverse musical collaborations. This period honed his skill in fusing genres and established a flexible, cat-like ability to leap from one musical style to another without missing a beat.
The Evolving Sounds of 'Volatil'
Starting with a strong base in dub/reggae, Nicolas has, over time, ventured into the untamed waters of dubstep, successfully merging its characteristic rhythms with his foundational sounds to create something wholly unique. This fusion has become a hallmark of his work, attracting the attention and collaboration of artists across the globe.
Global Collaborations That Sing
Nicolas' craft is not just about solitary creation, but also the synergy that comes from working with other artists. His frequent collaborations with the Spanish-Argentinian singer Federico de Gennaro are particularly notable, the latter lending his lyrical talent to projects like "Litalov" and "Refixed". The English DJ Satta B. has also found common ground in Nicolas' versatile beats, showcasing the global appeal of 'Volatil's' music.
