Suanpan (算盘) welcomes one of the most prolific names in techno in recent years, New York DJ and producer, Gunnar Haslam, to Zhao Dai on Friday 14th December.

New Yorker Gunnar Haslam is a rare talent with a unique intellect. Trained in particle physics and signal processing, he first began DJing and producing music as an undergraduate at NYU. He met Ron Morelli, the founder of L.I.E.S. records, while shopping at A1 Records and Ron released Gunnar’s first record in 2013, the highly-acclaimed Mimesiak LP.

Cutting his teeth at The Bunker New York under the watchful eyes of veterans like Mike Servito, Eric Cloutier, and The Bunker’s own Bryan Kasenic, Haslam is as comfortable playing records as he is producing them.
