Kalumet
Zoltan Vajda (Kalumet) was born in 1978 in Budapest, Hungary.
He has been walking on the electronic music road since 1994,
when acid parties started to spread in Budapest.
His music carreer began some years before, playing bass in a band,
but soon his interest turned to electronic music.
With the help of a computer and many instruments (guitars, synths, percussions),
he started to create his own tracks in the styles of jungle, triphop, dub, breakbeat and trance.
After the debuting live act in the first autumn of this Millenium,
he quickly became one of the most significant producers of the Hungarian
trance scene. He has stood out with his unique style, a fusion of
several different genres that made him a constant performer of the
Hungarian parties. The domestic success was soon followed by
international appearances, conquering many countries' trance scenes
worldwide from the UK or France to Germany, from Russia or Ukraine to
Japan, just to name a few. He played at most of the major festivals:
Boom, Ozora, VooV.
From 2005 to 2011 he worked with Psylife Music, where he released his first album
‘Burlesque’ in a funky psy-prog manner. His style then slowly developed into a much
more intense, full power kind of psychedelic trance, and his original and real live acts
are now more interesting than ever.
His second album 'One Inch Punch' is coming in April.
