Ryan Davis (musician)

Raised in the 90s-era of East Germany Davis got in contact with the hip-hop and techno scene which both where omnipresent in Germany at the time. The DJ was a central figure in this movement and inspired Davis to become a DJ himself and to create his first own electronic productions. Due to his classical guitar education he already gained foreknowledge for melodic compositions which he then could incorporate in his productions.

To this day the emphasis on melody is a trademark of Davis productions. In 2012 he published his first LP 'Particles of Bliss' on the record label Traumschallplatten.[1] The increasing support of well-known DJs and producers of the electronic scene such as Aphex Twin at the Day & Night Festival 2017,[2] Kiasmos,[3] Dominik Eulberg[4] or Apparat[5] but also from bands like Depeche Mode - who played his music as opening act at the ‘Sound of the Universe‘ tour[6] - emphasizes Davis standing and range in the musical landscape. For approximately 8 years he is touring worldwide and played his songs amongst others in Japan, Africa, Canada, Australia, India, Europe and Russia.[7] Davis sees himself as a nomad who is drawn to labels that are open for his musical visions. Therefore, he is currently working with the British label Anjunadeep. Further releases on avant-garde labels such as Erased Tapes[8] or Injazero show the constant development and diversifification of Davis' spectrum.

Besides his work as an artist Davis runs the record labels Klangwelt Records and Back Home which he formed in 2008 and 2009.
