For ARTE Concert’s Piano Day, producer Legowelt reimagines the soundtrack to a cult classic: Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey”. A cosmic experience, straddling the line between the synthetic and the organic.

Originally from the Netherlands, Legowelt is known for his colossal body of work, released primarily on his label, Creme Organization. Whether under the pseudonym Legowelt or Smackos, Danny Wolfers—his real name—is indeed quite prolific. But for him, quantity always goes hand in hand with quality.

The Dutch producer has built a musical universe influenced as much by Detroit and Chicago techno as by science fiction films. This dual passion has given rise to a third: a love of vintage synthesizers. This true mad scientist, in fact, owns an impressive collection of them, which he uses in his many projects.

Surrounded by an armada of keyboards, the Dutch artist puts his own spin on the legendary soundtrack of an equally legendary film: “Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.”
