At the age of 14 he started playing bass in several Funk/Soul/Jazz bands. In late 1989 Oliver’s first record Force Legato “[m=76733]” got released by Dorian Gray resident DJ Torsten Fenslau on his Abfahrt label and it was the first significantly recognised release by him.
In the years to follow Oliver released everything in the electronic genres from downtempo and chill-out to hard experimental techno and trance. His project Spicelab on Harthouse established a platform for him, including the release of three full length album releases.
Oliver created several pseudonyms for each of his different styles. His L.S.G. and Paragliders releases on Superstition were his trance projects with 10 years and 5 Albums. With other aliases, he’s been mainly into techno and minimal. One of his first own labels was 1dot12.
