Techno Doctor Nicolas Bougaïeff is a Berlin-based Canadian electronic artist and producer known for pushing the boundaries of sound, rhythm, and tempo. With a PhD in minimal techno, he bridges rigorous theory with bold experimentation, merging academic precision with sonic innovation.

For over a decade, Bougaïeff has explored the intersections of music, mathematics, and technology, pioneering techniques like Pivot Mixing and Prime Rhythms to challenge traditional rhythm structures. His work integrates bespoke tuning systems, modular hardware, and experimental synthesis, reflected in collaborations with dadamachines and Five12.

A dynamic performer, he has captivated audiences at Berghain, fabric London, and MUTEK Montréal, blending intense club energy with avant-garde experimentation. Beyond the dancefloor, his projects span visual arts, classical music, and technology—including co-founding Liine with <a href="spotify:artist:3AhwIUus3pIaA3CvYBEtpy" data-name="Richie Hawtin">Richie Hawtin</a> to develop the Lemur app, famously used aboard the International Space Station.

From early releases on Trapez to recent projects on Mute and NovaMute, Bougaïeff’s work continually redefines techno, blending complex rhythms and tempos into a distinctive auditory experience.

&#34;I see my music as an act of liberation—breaking genre boundaries and constraints of thought. Problems are soluble. Everything will be okay.&#34;
