Claptone is a man of mystery. The masked producer is one of the most talked about figures in dance music and for good reason. Such floor-focused anthems as “Cream” (Exploited Records, 2012) and “No Eyes” (Exploited Records, 2013) have launched him to dance music superstardom. Following his last stop in September of 2016, Claptone makes a triumphant return for another intimate affair on our Funktion-One system.

CLAPTONE:
In a now long forgotten world, many generations ago, a bird like shape emerged from wooded darkness, floating and fluttering, drifting and dreaming. Backlit by a bright glow of iridescent light, the undecipherable form wore a dazzling golden mask. Its long beak swooped down like an inverted horn and since then, people have referred to the mythical being simply as Claptone.
Years spending wandering medieval landscapes have informed Claptone’s view of the world, experiencing both magical mystery and muted melancholy he enchanted onlookers with occult instruments and beguiling sounds. Forever surrounded by a sense of intrigue, the world soon cottoned on to the elusive yet enchanting musical powers of this otherworldly beast. The results are that today his shamanistic sonic powers take him all around the world.
