Bogdan Raczynski
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Bogdan Raczynski is a pioneering Polish‐American electronic musician whose work has pushed the boundaries of IDM, jungle, breakcore, and braindance since the mid‐1990s.
After emigrating from Poland to rural Nebraska at age seven, he discovered a creative voice using tracker software like Impulse Tracker and collaborating with netlabels such as the Kosmic Free Music Foundation. His breakthrough came with the release of Boku Mo Wakaran (1999) on Richard D. James’s Rephlex Records—a bold, frenetic debut that earned praise and helped secure his place in the underground electronic canon..
Over the next decade, Raczynski released a string of influential albums—Samurai Math Beats, Thinking of You, MyLoveILove, 96 Drum ’n’ Bass Classixxx—that combined chaotic breakbeats with playful melodies and odd vocal samples.
His reputation as an innovator was cemented through remixes for artists like Björk, Autechre, and Ulver, and by inspiring peers—Aphex Twin described him as one of his key influences, even citing Raczynski as an inspiration for tracks on Drukqs. Known for his stripped‐back studio setup—a simple laptop, a kettle, and headphones—he’s always championed creative spontaneity over gear fetishism.
