Biografía
Fluttert’s earliest musical excursions began when the Dutchman was studying psychology at Utrecht University, and after discovering deep house music started moonlighting as a DJ in his spare time. The young DJ began honing his skills and following his interests and released a pair of EPs “Zomer” and “Vandaag” in 2012. The latter of which “Vandaag” features the single “I Have a Dream” which samples Martin Luther King Jr.’s infamous speech and got a rerelease by Sony Music in 2014. The EPs brought Fluttert to the attention of a number of electronic house labels and he subsequently signed with the dance agency Soulmax in 2012.
With label backing Bakermat released his “Uitzicht" EP in 2013 which propelled the producer into several dance charts acrosss Europe and brought Fluttert international acclaim. Led by the single of the same name, Fluttert released his fourth EP “Teach Me” in 2014 on the Dirty Soul Music division of Be Yourself Music. Inspired by gospel, soul, blues and jazz, the EP is a melodically inclined sample-laden affair with artists including Shirley Ceasar, and led to a string of high-profile DJ gigs, the producer’s first tour of the U.S. and a slot at the EDM festival Tomorrowland.

So I'm relatively new to Bakermat. I'd heard one song on BBC Radio 1 (Teach Me) and I got hooked on that track. So I created a Bakermat radio station on my Rdio account and heard some of his other work - from there I was sold on going to see him at The El Rey. By the way The El Rey is in my opinion one of the best venues in LA to see a DJ. The opening act I wasn't too keen on, he wasn't bad but he just wasn't my taste. But Bakermat took the stage and my inner happy was brought out. From the get go I started smiling - he brought such positive vibes to the crowd. The coolest and most unexpected thing for me was that he brought along a saxophonist. As odd as that sounds it only amplified the energy in the room. He played well over an hour and probably would've gone on all night if the venue didn't have to shut down. Despite some immature rabble rousers it was much more awesome than I expected it to be. He mixed his own tunes and even played Watermat's "Bullit" and Faul's "Changes" - and he ended it with Flume's sexy remix of "You and Me". I think my favorite thing was watching him sing along, hum along, move along to the music. If you ever get the change to see Bakermat - GO, don't even think about it. This dude is high energy and just loves spreading love and seeing people have a good time with his music. It was off the chain, the hook and the wall! Nuff said!

It’s hard enough convincing people that saxophones have a place in pop music in general, and that’s a pretty obvious truth. Imagine how difficult it must have been for 22 year old Dutch born musician and producer Bakermat (Lodewijk Fluttert to his mum) to convince people that saxophones would not only work in house music, but he could bring a saxophonist on tour with him and not be laughed out the building every single night. It must have taken a lot of faith to let him try it out but it would have also taken just one concert to prove that Bakermat had stumbled on an idea with more than a touch of genius to it. It gets even weirder when you realize that Bakermat writes what is ostensibly minimalist techno, and then uses it to send the huge crowds that he commands utterly berserk night after night after night. With his ever present saxophonist by his side. Here’s the thing though, it works. Incredibly well for that matter. His music may not be as obviously energising as some of his peers but the effortless way that Bakermat guides his set through the peaks and troughs that any good DJ set needs could almost be an education in how to make a room full of people go mental. You might seem sceptical for any number of reasons, from the minimalism, to the saxophones. All I can say is, see it for yourself, you will not regret it!

Unbelievably phenomenal live sax set, danced hard for hours. The venue was absolute crap though! There was no organization at the for for checking in, people were shoulder to shoulder pushing to get in all at once instead of checking in via a line, the venue was dark, terrible lighting on the stage, suffocating and so sticky hot! There was no ins and out or a place to get air, a girl continited to climb on stage then get pulled off about 5 times and still was allowed back in - I would never return to Electroc Owl but I would drive hours to go and see bakermat again

Awesome! Probably best one yet or at least as good as Brixton 2016. Only complaint would be that it started too early so the crowds were thin for Magician and Michael Calfan. We got there around 9.15pm and saw the end of Magician’s set through to the end of Bakermat but it felt like it was over way too quickly! 9:30pm-3am or 10pm-4pm would have been better. Awesome show though, can’t wait for the next one

Medium show.
Was expecting a setup as in France last year with singer, piano, violin and drums.
This time it was only Bakermat and the saxophone.
There was a firealarm cutting the support act short (thank god, 1 hour and 45min is not a support act anymore.)
After the alarm, there was 1 hour left for bakermat to rush his set.
Live sax was great though.
