Mihai Popoviciu is one of the most talked-about newcomers in the house and techno scene. But to call him a "newcomer" is a misnomer. Mihai has been releasing quality music for years, on labels such as Gigolo, Level Non Zero, Brise, Diynamic and, of course, Highgrade. Since 2007, he has sworn allegiance to the Highgrade flag, either alone or with production partner Markus Homm. Trapped In Brakets features three brilliant club tracks of outstanding quality, custom-made for the dancefloor.

Title:	The Unexpected Truth
Label:	HIGHGRADE (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	HIGH 097CD

This is the debut album from Romanian producer/DJ Mihai Popoviciu. Recently there seems to have been an easterly wind blowing through the electronic music scene: more and more artists, particularly from Romania, have staked an impressive claim on the dancefloors of Europe's best clubs and on the ears of its house music audience. Among the luminaries of the trend is Mihai Popoviciu, one of the most innovative producers in Eastern Europe. Mihai has already gained plenty of experience as a producer and DJ -- he was only 14 years old when he discovered the electronic underground of his homeland. In 2001, he finally began his own music production, a pursuit which is closely related to his work as a DJ -- the one could not exist without the other -- two sides of a creative symbiosis. On The Unexpected Truth, Mihai Popoviciu shows two distinct sides of his musical mind. Across these tracks we find, on the one hand, his private and reserved expressions, and on the other a powerful and surging musical attitude. The record is characterized by its unconcerned and easy-going atmosphere, which transforms rapidly into driving percussion and minimal ambience. It is at once varied, original and catchy. Mihai himself considers The Unexpected Truth to be the essence of his artistic work. With this debut album he will appeal to both the party animal and the sofa connoisseur. Regardless of whether you're wriggling with the groove or chilling out at home, this album will be making the rounds in the deep recesses of your mind.

Romanian Mihai Popoviciu is considered one of the most innovative eastern European producers of electronic music today. Sucked into the rave scene of the '90s, then infected by the techno and house virus compelled him to begin producing music in 2001. Since then, he's steadily added chapters to his success story either with solo projects or collaborations. Just like his music, his DJ sets have a distinctive, personal touch, delivering a balanced mix of groovy beats, warm pads and addictive musical emotions.

Title:	Tales from the Moon
Label:	INTERNATIONAL DEEJAY GIGOLO (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	GIGOLO 176EP

"Mihai Popoviciu first hit the scene earlier this year with his cheeky tune 'Sexy Suspender' on the last Gigolo compilation. Indeed, the Romanian was a real find as this 12" goes to prove; it's a massive record with four great new original tunes. Tales from the Moon is a quality 12". Just right for the hot late summer club scene. Mihai Popoviciu has the Balkan beats and the vision to produce blinding futurist sounds. This record has everything."
