From his earliest demos to his current position as a key figure in the global techno scene, Perc (aka Ali Wells) has taken the established forms of the music he loves and twisted them into something new and fresh. Building up successful relationships with scene-leading labels such as Drumcode, Ovum, Kompakt and CLR whilst unleashing a strong run of releases on his own Perc Trax label has seen Perc’s influence and support grow even further. With each release his sonic experimentation has taken another leap forward without losing sight of the dance floor. 2009’s ‘Throb’ on Ovum and ‘Submit’ on CLR brought Perc his first support from the key Berlin tastemakers and his 2010 releases including ‘BCG’ (Perc Trax) and ‘Monad V’ (Stroboscopic Artefacts) have made him an essential artist for those with an interest in techno that refuses to conform to preconceptions. 2010 has ended on a high with a trio of releases for Perc including his third EP on CLR, a collaboration with Italy's Modern Heads on Stroboscopic Artefacts and a split 12" with rising star Sawf on Perc Trax. As a DJ and live act Perc has covered all of Europe plus multiple tours of USA, Canada, Mexico, South Africa and Japan. Personal highlights for Perc's touring include a back-to-back set with Oliver Ho in Tokyo, his debut at Tresor in early 2010, being part of the Drumcode tent at Dance Valley in 2008 and playing on the same bill as Richie Hawtin and Speedy J at 2008’s Electric Deluxe Queen’s Day party at Melkweg, Amsterdam. 2011 will see the release of Perc's first album, another tour the USA and Canada and his debut at Berghain.Tracklisting:1) Cabaret Voltaire - Badge Of Evil - Virgin 2) Miller & Boex - Relevance (Forward Strategy Group Remix) - Labrynth 3) Par Grindvik - Sinister (S1000 Remix) - Sinister 4) Truncate - Truncate 27 - Enemy 5) Gesloten Crikel - Yamagic - Moustache 6) Bill Youngman - HH3 (Sandwell District Remix) - Killekill 7) Shifted - Avian 001 B2 - Avian Samuli Kemppi - Superclusters (Inigo Kennedy Remix) - Labrynth 9) Death Abyss - A Further Step Away - Rodz-Konez 10) Adam Beyer - Simple Maze (Skudge Remix) - Drumcode 11) Modeselektor - Dancing Box (Sleeparchive Remix) - Bpitch 12) Raudive - Dial - Wires 13) Tommy Four Seven - Ratu (Perc Remix) - CLR 14) Samaan - Navigator (Perc Chord Tool) - Fullbarr Digital 15) Mathew Johnson - Decompression - Minus 16) Perc - London, We Have You Surrounded - Perc Trax 17) Radial - Revolver - Numb 1 Perc - My Head Is Slowly Exploding (Ancient Methods Remix) - Perc Trax 19) Milton Bradley - Escaped From The Dark (Zooloft Remix) - Zooloft 20) Perc - Choice - Perc Trax
