Label owner of Alphahouse Records, accomplished producer, and jetsetting DJ, Butane (Andrew Rasse) hails from the Midwestern United States. His infamous Alphahouse monthly party put St. Louis on the current worldwide techno map, and his record label is regarded as one of the premier minimal techno/house labels in North America. As a music producer, his tracks have been featured on some of the worlds most forward-thinking underground labels, including Alphahouse, Dumb Unit, Num, Catenaccio, Goosehound, and Rrygular. As a remixer he’s worked for many highly regarded artists and labels, including Dapayk, Pheek, Foundsound, Hallucination Limited, Freak ‘n Chic, and others. Also licensing original tracks to mix compilations such as Matthew Dear’s Fabric mix and Luciano’s HiFi SciFi on Soma, it’s obvious that his peers in the industry hold his music in high regard.

Always one to rely on his talents for success rather than shameless promotional methods, Andrew remains increasingly busy on the international DJ circuit. His touring schedule in the past year has included gigs in Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, Cape Town, Moscow, Mexico City, London, Budapest, Rome, Barcelona, Detroit, New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, among many others. Rave reviews of his sets continue to pour in from underground outposts around the globe.

A skilled and imaginative DJ on the decks, Andrew uses vinyl, Final Scratch, samplers, effects, and all other tools available to craft his sets. Plenty of experience in clubs enables him to move bodies while simultaneously keeping a distinctly heady vibe. Technically gifted with an ear for deepness, and not afraid to take the crowd where they need to go, he can play appropriately for any time or setting. Because he prides himself on his musical range, expect anything from seamlessly blended groovy, sexy, peak-time techno to warm, deep, cerebral house.
