Cooh
Ivan Shopov (Cooh)
Started playing bass guitar in a hardcore-metal band when at 16 and
got involved with creating electronic music at the age of 18.
Producing Drum And Bass for 8 years, now at the age of 26, he has 25 vinyl and 7 bootleg CD releases.
Together with Valery Sholevski (Ogonek), in 2002 he began intense promotion of drum and bass in the boarders of Bulgaria, sending "patriotic" messages to the young generation and playing a lot in the busiest clubs in Sofia (the capital city of Bulgaria.), mainly with the H.M.S.U. crew .As time passed by, his style improved significantly until finally he adopted the contemporary hard and dark dnb sound.
With a lot of hard work behind his back, Cooh is now releasing for some of the well known and respected drum and bass labels: Position Chrome, Obsessions, Sinuous, TOV, G2, Bass Rejects, Reapa and more. His energetic author tracks are often played by leading artists in the genre: Raiden, Panacea, Limewax, Audio, BSE, Tech itch, Future Prophecies, Evol Intent , Counterstrike, Vengeanze , The Sect, Infiltrata, EBK, etc.
Cooh has had appearances in many parts of the world. So far he has played in Russia, France, Belgium, Poland, Germany and Romania, and is booked for performing in Spain, Portugal, Lithuania and USA. He has a special knowledge of how to make the crowds go crazy and loves to share his own emotions with the people on the dance floor.
In the meantime Cooh has also been working in the field of liquid & atmospheric dnb, as well as in dubstep, breakbeat , IDM and downtempo, and last but not least - jazz music. He has played at some of the biggest jazz festivals in Bulgaria as part of The Stoyan Yankuolov Quintete also with one the best Bulgarian jazz musicans - Theodosii Spassov.
