Teho

About

Teho was born in 1990 in a small town near Montpellier, in the south of France. At the age of 11, a bass guitar in hand, he tries to play all the songs he likes. He discovered the world of electronic music when he was 15 but it was two years later that he decided to start producing music after seeing Daft Punk in concert. Also inspired by the musical universe of the legendary club Bar Live After, it naturally turns towards a melodic techno style influenced by artists such as James Holden, or even Stephan Bodzin. In 2010, aged 20, Teho signed his first EPs, one of them included a remix by Traumer. That year, he also had his first gigs in Montpellier and Paris, playing with a “Live set” format. During one of those gigs, he met NTO who, later, helped Teho in his creative process, notably by making him a remix. In 2012, he went to play abroad for the first time at the "Module" club in Tokyo (Japan), followed by gigs in Germany, Belgium and England. In 2014, after several label signatures, Teho marked a turning point in his career when he released two EPs on the prestigious Stephan Bodzin's label, Herzblut recordings. His career started then to grow, he had increasingly more gigs, and Teho began to make his own name in the world of electronic music. In 2016, in search of greater artistic freedom, Teho created his own label “Labo T”, a sound laboratory where he could experiment new styles and new aspects of his music. In 2017, in parallel of his label projects, Teho also signed an EP on Traum Schallplatten and a single on Agoria’s label, Sapiens. It was also during that year that he participated for the first time on the Cercle show for a Live Set streamed from Colorado Provençal in Rustrel, France. Continuing to assert his musical identity, and joining the line-ups of major festivals such as I Love Techno Europe in 2018 or Panoramas Festival in 2019, Teho had the desire to create a long format album. Entitled « Polytone », this first LP will finally be released in February 2020 on Labo T. He had the support of Joris Delacroix, Joachim Pastor and Ron Flatter, with remixes made by them especially this project. In May 2021, when the pandemic seemed to be fading away, Teho was once again on a Cercle show, but this time for a short format story filmed at Glacier 3000 in Switzerland. This video received an important echo in worldwide medias and TVs such as the Times magazine, BBC, CBS News, or even France TV. Today, counting several millions plays on his tracks, and playing his music all over the world, Teho has found his place in the electronic music scene. With his own musical universe, both dreamy and melancholic, but also full of energy, Teho succeeded to combine different musical genres to create his hybrid and melodic techno, almost electronica.
