Open Records is proud to present another fresh new artist in the shape of Spikers – one of Portugal’s best upcoming producers and live acts.
Born in Lisbon, Pedro Vasconcelos studied Spanish guitar and music theory from a young age.
After experimenting with bass and electric guitar in several garage bands, Pedro found his true calling with the discovery of electronic music in 1997 and he hasn’t looked back since.
After Djing for many years, he built a studio in 2002 and the Spikers project was born.
Blending elements of techno, minimal and electro influences with strong bass-grooves, intelligent musicality and top production work, Spikers will no doubt be a hit around the globe with tracks already signed to labels like Plusquam, Drag’n’Drop, Carica Deep, Soultribe and here on Open Records.
The Lockpicker EP showcases the diverse nature Pedro’s sound, with the title track Lockpicker taking a sub bassdriven minimal approach and the B-side Kentucky Fried Chick favouring a stronger techno-esque style.
Both tracks have already been extensively tested on the dancefloor and are versatile tools both DJs and home listeners alike – and have already been given the tick of approval by both Australian and Portuguese dancefloors.
Now for the rest of the world!
Open Records is proud to have Pedro part of the team and make sure you keep your eyes and ears peeled for more from the Spikers studio in the near future...

Anyone acquainted with the Lisbon scene knows that Techno is thriving there. This new project demonstrates an impressive command of sound production and fx, with a lot of cool ideas (and sample!) from across a broad horizon. Congrats to Open rec for this release. |
