Wolfgang Gartner
High-octane electro house defined by surgical precision and maximalist grit. It is the sound of a digital clock ticking at double speed in a neon-lit club.

Wolfgang Gartner, the moniker of Joey Youngman, represents a pivotal bridge between the soulful roots of American house and the aggressive, technical maximalism of the 2010s 'complextro' era. Originally a prolific deep house producer under his birth name, Youngman pivoted in 2007 to a sound defined by high-bitrate grit and surgical editing.
His work is characterized by a high density of sonic events, often featuring dozens of unique synth patches within a single eight-bar loop. This technical prowess earned him a Grammy nomination and a string of Beatport number ones, most notably 'Wolfgang's 5th Symphony.' am. Critically, he is respected as a 'producer's producer,' admired for a level of detail in his mixdowns that few of his contemporaries could match. His influence persists in the high-energy sectors of bass music and the technical side of modern electro.
