Resoe aka Dennis Uprock has been involved in the music business for more than 20 years. He started out as a hip hop dj in 1986 at the early age of 14, but when house made itʼs impact in Europe in the late 80ʼs he picked up on that and his passion for electronic music was born.
He played as a techno dj in the early 90ʼs – he played more or less in every underground club in his hometown of Copenhagen. In 1997 he started to work in the legendary record store “Loud music” which was one of the main institutions of the Copenhagen underground electronic music scene.
In 1998 Resoe bought his first sampler. He experimented for years in the studio, twisting knobs and cutting up samples to improve his production skills. He is a member of the Danish hip hop/soul collective “Nobody beats the beats” where he released the single “Abstract Soul feat. Joy Morgan: Canʼt i be loved” on the album “The second coming”. He then got involved with a project the Danish national radio launched in 2004 called “Radio Recordings Vol. 1′′ where he released the track “Krew: Industrial dawn”.
In 2005 he got contacted by Beta Lounge (Hamburg) about a collaboration between them, and the library label “Selected Sound” where he produced 9 tracks as “Sedrian” for the Selectronica series.
In 2007 he decided to start up his own label Baum records, to create a platform for his own and other artists releases. So far the releases on his label has included, besides himself; Leftover, Johan Fotmeijer, Atheus and Marko Fürstenberg.
In 2008 he started yet another new project with Kenneth Christiansen (Echocord): Pattern Repeat. The first release by Pattern Repeat was released on Echocord Colour and soon after Resoe and Kenneth started the label Pattern Repeat – to have a platform to release their own productions.
Resoeʼs dj skills has brought him around the world to clubs like Berghain / Berlin, Fabric / London, Weekend Club / Berlin, Sonar / Barcelona and Culture Box / Copenhagen to name just a few.
In the beginning of 2010 Resoe started to work on his live set to promote his highly acclaimed debut album which was released on Echocord in January 2011.
