Patrick Duvoisin’s aka rollercone now trademark sensual deep house sounds have made him an international name. The French Swiss producer has built a reputation for producing jazz tinged, deep dance moods, a style The Times described as “Curtis Mayfield meets St.Germain”.
Recently chosen by Absolut Vodka as the “voice” of their threetracks music project, he produced “ The List” for them, which caused a stir amongst the exclusive worldwide dance DJ’s such as Louie Vega. His cover-mounted exclusive compilation for international fashion magazine Harpers and Queen ensured that not just his classic productions but also his DJ sets have added to his reputation.
As a producer he is a frequent name on hugely successful, groundbreaking compilation series such as Buddha Bar, Hotel Costes, Real Ibiza and Cafe Mambo. He is currently working on compiling a release for the Bar Grooves European series.

Prior to his own solo releases he also produced the Swiss trippy beats of 5 Star Galaxy and the Galaktic Sound Lab collective, including their residency club night at Hoxton’s legendary Blue Note.
