One of Germany's most highly regarded house producers, Henrik Schwarz has bridged dance music, classical, jazz, pop, and several other genres through his inventive DJ sets, remixes, collaborations, and compositions. Initially known for making deep house tracks heavily reminiscent of Detroit producers like Moodymann and Theo Parrish, he transitioned from being a DJ to a live performer and improviser, and collaborated extensively with fellow house DJs/producers Âme and Dixon, as well as Norwegian jazz pianist Bugge Wesseltoft. He also ventured into classical music, composing material for ballets and chamber orchestras. In addition, he has remixed songs by artists of nearly every genre. He is also a noted software developer. ~ Paul Simpson
