“Techy new guy Giash is leading the Hungarian hit squad by force. He should need little introduction to minimal and tech house bods - his first release My Little Ladybirds didn’t only hit the number one spot on Beatport’s minimal Chart…it also hit the number one position on the entire Beatport chart. The Hungarian based DJ, producer and musician has gained support from some of the industry’s biggest labels and jocks with his talent and flare for all things techno and is with out doubt one of the year’s best newcomers...”

Bertalan Baglyas (aka Giash) is a young Hungarian producer and Dj, who was born in 1987. Already in his childhood Jean Michel Jarre and Kraftwerk leaves depth traces in his mind. The speciality of their sounds charmed him secretly already then. At this time he hasn’t been stand in a nearly contact with the music.
First happened when he got started his high school studies in Budapest. He went down some amazing underground parties, felt strange feeling and knew that it will be his life. He liked all music so much which wasn’t mainstream and popular. After this point all he listened to was electronic music and he becomes absorbed by it. In the autumn of 2005 he studied at college when a very close friend played to him some strange records. These were beastly Progressive-house tracks, and bouncy electro sounds. This is when everything started to begin for him. He started collecting the musics, and already felt what it is for what he is looking. Almost weekly he went down into the store, in order to feel the fragrance of the vinyls. :-) Sometimes bought some of it, that afterwards listened so gladly. All these were a jewel for him. The time filled up, but the affection of the music didn’t go by.
Listening to the music wasn’t enough for him, wanted to accomplish himself in the musics. He getting started acquainted with the producing at this time. He has been producing music since the end of 2005. At the start he spent loads of time practicing and learning how to achieve the sounds He was looking for. He wasn’t really doing it to receive feedback and release music, He did it because of how much He enjoyed writing and producing, a finished track brings him so much joy. By the end of 2007 He started to drift towards his minimal sound and by February 2008 He had finished and he was happy with his first release what called My Little Ladybirds. He just found himself in the fusion of minimal, tech house, and the techno that he had made his sound.
Meanwhile he recognized a lot of musician, who helped so much on him and they turned into his very good friends. Now he is in contact and working with many great talents like Ahmet Sendil, Utku Dalmaz, Dogukan Ires, Andrea Roma, Emrah Celik, Noir, Kolombo, and many more. In the recent past he done some remixes to Manual Music, Parquet recordings, Modifimusic and Bosphorus Underground.
Beside the music producing the Djing is very important one for him. He is really not in to commercial music and sets that are predictable. In his eyes this is not the magic of music. He think that every track should have intention and reason, like each star in the sky makes a universe, each track in the set helps to build the bigger picture. Sound wise you can expect groovy minimal, unique sounds from tech house, techno with interesting percussion, grooves, and strong melodies with strange feelings. There are so many DJs and producers that he respects, most of these people have achieved so many things through their music which he thinks is incredible. In terms of established artists: Ahmet Sendil, Butch, Tiger Stripes, Stimming, Layo & Bushwacka, Matthew Dear, Daso, Martin Bütrich and Loco Dice all flick my switch.
