ARCHETYPE:

archetype

New York City-based electronic music producer Charles Noel, aka Archetyp, worked quietly behind the scenes of electronic dance music throughout the 1990s, overseeing the experimental imprint called the 21-22 Corporation. His label featured a diverse palette of electronic music from the likes of Nu Era (4 hero), Morgan Geist (Metro Area) and
Dan Curtin, among others, and tested the limitations of graphic design and package design (Columbus Society of Communication Arts “Judge’s Choice Award of 2000″ - award of merit), while releasing some of Ohio’s best-regarded electronic music to date.

His academic study of music and digital media at the Ohio State University (M.F.A. 1999) served as a seed to pursue underground electronic music. As co-founder of Ele_mental artists’ collective with Todd Sines and Titonton Duvante, he played an important role energizing the nascent underground electronic music scene throughout Ohio, while bringing cutting-edge artists to Columbus including Claude Younge, Juan Atkins, DJ Rolando, and DJ Spooky.

With several full-length albums under his belt on Jay Denham’s (Disko-B, transmat) BlackNation Records, and the U.K.’s Theory Records, as well as a slew of singles and appearances on numerous compilations and mix CDs, Charles (better known to the world as Archetyp) is no stranger to the international electronic music scene. Thanks largely to the BlackNation releases, as well as other well-received EPs on Klang Electronic’s mother label Ongaku, his own offshoot from the 21-22 Corporation (Glyph), and Ben Sims’ Theory label, Noel has taken his place among the top echelon of artists redefining techno music in the 2000s. His downtempo and hip hop productions caught the ear of the Good Looking Organization label-head LTJ Bukem, who quickly signed Charles to his label’s roster of talent. The first release appeared on the Good Looking downtempo sub-label (Cookin’ Records) with fellow New York artist M.C. L. Black. Currently Charles has been cutting his own path with his genre straddling productions that fuse various traits of Detroit Techno, Chicago House, Broken Beat, and 70’s funk.

Charles has also performed in various venues around North America and Europe, including after-hours performances for the Detroit Electronic Music Festival with Akufen and Orlando Voorn and the SONAR festival in Barcelona, appearing alongside Jeff Mills, Aphex Twin, Richard Divine, Matmos, and John Peel. His music expanded farther east in 2002 during a tour of Japan with Fumiya Tanaka and label-mate Ricardo Villaobos, where he headlined a live performance at the world-famous Liquid Room in Tokyo.

Archetype will both perform live and play a DJ set

Below you will find live recordings from the Intimate Ambiance party we hosted at El Dorado. The event turned out to be quite amazing and all together lasted about 12 hours. There were pillows blankets, stuffed animals relaxed people, a mysterious script, a few spills, a missing jacket, bags full of bags, a box of games, a very strange puzzle, stretches, an amazing massage, a record player that plays slow and weird, a waterphone, candles, sleepers, and lots of great ambiance.
