Sid Le Rock

BACKGROUND
Growing up in the northern regions of Ontario, he spent most of his youth in lots of snow. Not big on ice fishing and sci-doos like most common Northerners, the warmer seasons were his favourable moments in the great outdoors. The summer would bring a new life from hybernation where his playground was a backyard filled with deep forests. It was a constant case that his family would move from town to town where ever work can be found. His father who was a lumberjack and miner always could find work to support the family but that meant that the young Bono would have to adapt to new measures, quit often depending on his interests for music and art which made for most of his past time.

A NEW SOUND IS BORN
Eventually he moved out on his own to the most southern part of Canada to rid himself of long winters and constant driveways filled with babe seals and backyards cluttered with roaming Bears. In Windsor, Sheldon searched for a career in art design but rather, soon discovered a new fuel for passion with music. In 1994, is where he wandered into a life that is his now....producing Techno. Introduced to new sounds that were flurishing in the Detroit scene (which was a mere 5min from where he onced lived), It was his constant fix to get an ear full of this new bread of music. From there, Shelbono moved to Toronto where the music scene was growing with international view. He moved there to seek out a degree in Music Engineering to learn more about cultivating his own sound. With a continued interest in post rock and independant rock music, he forged his old influences with the new to give life to a love child of his own creation, a style he has branded as "ROCKNO". What other name would you conjure up if Mama was called Rock and Papa was Techno?. To Shelbono, Rockno is more then just his means to explore and define himself as an artist, to him, it is an actual unstable living, breathing being!. Its now out there on the loose.

TODAY FOR TOMORROW
Still Chugging, Shelbono currently lives in Cologne, Germany with at least 20 bars in walking distance. The closest one is where you might suspect to find him. With over 20 releases, 3 albums in 2004-2005 alone, the man with many faces is bounching and crashing his way around the world to bring new breath of sounds to dancefloors under the alias's of PAN/TONE (sub-static, sender/kompakt, 240 Volts), SID LeROCK (Ladomat2000, Mute) and GRINGO GRINDER (Onitor records). With steady output of releases's, He has seen one of his busiest years unfold with great success and this comes with previledges to see many new cities and meet many interesting like minded individuals. With more production under way for future releases under all names, Shelbono has been commitee to detoxing himself to better health to prepare himself again for 2006. The neighbours now find themselves lucky to be next to a producer preparing for his next album(s) in the midnight hours.

Sid Le Rock - Tout Va Bien

_{Gepubliceerd op: 2010-07-04}

Phoe, moeilijk om iets te schrijven over een cd waar zoveel dezelfde eentonige liedjes opstaan. Maar misschien is het een kwestie van smaak. De, in de elektronische muziekscene, zeer gewaardeerde producer Sheldon Thompson presenteert namelijk wel vol trots (uiteraard) zijn nieuwe album, waar hij vier jaar lang aan heeft gewerkt. Hij beschrijft het zelf als een zeer persoonlijk album da ... »
