Barker

Barker (Sam Barker) is a Berlin-based electronic producer and DJ known for his boundary-pushing take on techno and ambient soundscapes. A key figure in the city’s experimental club scene, he co-runs the label Leisure System and has released on Ostgut Ton, the imprint tied to Berghain’s in-house artists. His 2019 album *Utility* cemented his rep for blending hypnotic rhythms with emotionally charged textures, while tracks like *Birmingham Screwdriver* and the *Debiasing EP* showcase his knack for warping club conventions into something cerebral yet visceral. Whether remixing acts like Mandrill or dropping genre-defying EPs, Barker’s work feels equally at home in headphone sessions and foggy warehouse raves—a balance of precision and playfulness that keeps listeners (and dancers) hooked.
