Having worked for years in a duo, first as 3 Channels and now as the lauded, world-touring house outfit Catz ’n Dogz, Polish producer Voitek Taranczuk’s project, Ketiov, is personal. It is about focusing on his own process and creative instincts — after all, Ketiov is Voitek in reverse. Here, he indulges his boundary-breaking impulses, crossing genres and experimenting with sound. Ketiov grew up in Poland, where as a young dj hosted parties and build his musical taste. Few years ago moved from Berlin to Madrid where he continues his journey. He is a resident at Cafe Berlin in Madrid and with his husband David Rigote, runs very successful LGBTQ+ party CARBS. From 2022 resident of fetish party MyPleasure.

​

Releasing tracks himself and mostly on vinyl, Ketiov has repressed his 2017 “Ketiov A/B” twice due to popular demand, and received strong feedback for “Ketiov Edits 01” (Jan 2018) and “Ketiov C/D&E” (Feb 2018). “Rhythm Trainx Vol 2,” his piece de resistance featuring huge sound and only one drummer, was released on Gerd Janson’s Running Back in May 2018, following with ambient album “King Of Hypocrisy” and in 2021 two more releases of his own imprint. 2023 is full of new releases including another one for Running Back, debuting on Moxie’s On Loop and IsBurning.

​

Ketiov’s innovative rhythmic play and effortless mixing of deep house, disco, techno and 90s house have landed him Dj mixes with the infamous Honey Soundsystem, Buttons, IsBurning and dance sets at clubs all around Europe including Panorama Bar, House Of Yes, Mustang, Dalstone Superstore, Buttons and the world at large. Ketiov believes in order to be a great collaborator, one needs to pursue their own projects alongside. Only time will tell how Voitek’s addictive sound will evolve on his own and in his powerful collaborations.
