In just a short time, Camea has gone from being one of the few lonely souls pushing the minimal and micro-house sound in the United States to one of the matrons and ambassadors of its phenomenal wave around the globe. She runs two of minimal techno's top labels, Clink & Klickhaus, and works along side many of techno's hottest voices today, among them Tony Rohr, Tim Xavier, Elon, Insideout, Matthew Dear, Alexi Delano, Pan-Pot, and Ambivalent (with whom she shares one of online's hippest radio shows covering the gamut of minimal techno today, The Nerd Tank). Her sound has been described as "Seattle cool meets Brooklyn edge...a funky-sexy blend of groovy house and techno-pop, a little bit dirty and a lot danceable" (DJ List) and certainly she has managed to garner a wide ear for a new techno sound, making it hip and giving it a starlet in the process. A classically trained piano and clarinet player, her productions have been featured on her own Clink and Klickhaus labels, as well as Spectral and LTD400 (w/ Tim Xavier), and her remixes are also featured on M_nus, Tora Tora Tora and Einmaleins.
Though she has recently moved to Berlin, she has made a distinct mark on the "new" New York techno scene, playing at the best parties and venues there, among them Avalon, Cielo, Wolf & Lamb, Bunker, APT, Minimoo and Crobar. She will be touring the U.S. again soon, but has upcoming performances in cities around the globe, including Bogota, Rome, Stuttgart, Zurich, Brussels and Berlin.
