It was a turning-point and from that moment he was much more interested in making music with computers.
His early demo tapes were inspired by the rave era and after the end of this period he became 'more' serious and open-minded to other musical styles like jazz, funk, soul, contemporary, etc.
These impressions are slowly infected his music and now they are the basics of Savages' sound.
Nándor Kürtössy is a prolific producer, behind many projects like Kovacs, Savages y Suefo, and Vega Ass, and is also the founder of his own Hungarian electronic music label, Mana Mana Records. Five Finger Discount was Nándor’s first release, born from the previous few years of sessions creating tracks for himself and his friends. Encouraged to collect these cuts onto an album, Savages was created and this remarkable album revealed. Its legend has grown since the initial release with some considering Five Finger Discount a classic of eastern European hip hop culture. The album track “You’re My Chocolate” has since become quite popular among the Greek downtempo DJ scene. Read more on Last.fm.
