ONE HIT WONDER: OSKAR OFFERMANN
On October 10th the guys and girls at Red Ruby have a great booking coming to the island if you love your techno. Oskar Offermann has been a key figure in the German underground Techno and House scene for more than 10 years.
Having played at several of the iconic venues in his native Germany such as Berghain, Bar 25 and Tresor amongst others he soon grew his inevitable musical wings and began to fly the globe playing across every major continent spreading his infectious style of obscure melodic beats interspersed with acid influences that he has become synonymous with. Also the founder of the uber cool White Label Oskar is a welcome addition to the musical landscape of the island.
Oskar kindly took time out of his busy schedule to answer a few questions for us at Secret Bali Life so you could get to know the man better ahead of his set next month!
