John Talabot, the moniker of Barcelona-born producer, DJ, and electronic musician Oriol Riverola, stands as one of the most influential and enigmatic figures in contemporary electronic music. Following the success of his album, Talabot cemented his reputation as an elite selector by curating a highly acclaimed installment of the prestigious DJ-Kicks mix series in 2013. Beyond his solo accomplishments, he is a vital tastemaker through his independent record label, Hivern Discs, which has grown into a major hub for avant-garde electronic music. He also channels his creativity into collaborative projects, most notably Talaboman, a duo formed with Swedish producer Axel Boman that explores psychedelic techno and cosmic rhythms.
