Balance is the key to Hunter/Game‘s music. It’s part of growing up in Milan, a sophisticated urban center for film, fashion and art, but whose inhabitants relish the contrast of spending reflective time in the nature that surrounds the city.

Having been part of Milan’s techno scene since its first days, the duo of Emmanuele Nicosia and Martino Bartola now find themselves equally influenced by the city and by nature, making music that harnesses the urban propulsion of techno within an introspective, thoughtful take on melody.It started in 2010 with the ‘Just This’ parties. Hunter/Game’s own party, held in secret locations round the city.

Just This has made Milan a compulsory stop for the touring electronic artist, from early shows that focused on local acts like Mind Against and Tale Of Us, growing to far bigger events with names like Dixon, Seth Troxler, Koze, Tennis and other DJs in Hunter/Game’s worldwide scene. And alongside the parties, the duo have released on Innervisions, Rumours, Last Night on Earth, My Favourite Robot, Hot Creations and Dynamic – with a Kompakt release in early 2015 – and each EP has earned more fans for their lush, deep-grooved analogue soundscapes. In 2015, Hunter/Game will open the doors of the new Just This vinyl label. Distributed by Kompakt, the label opens with the leftfield electronic dance stylings of Danish-Icelandic band Primal, a Hunter/Game release, and another to come within five months.

This event is happening on Friday, 25 December 2015, from 11pm at Jenja. For more information, please see Facebook.
