A biography of Hugo Granzner, the artist of the album “Flower Preview”

Hugo Granzner, an accomplished artist working in multiple mediums who has a deep love for music, recounts his illuminating path of self-discovery and artistic growth. Hugo began his musical journey at the young age of four, immersing himself in piano lessons while simultaneously exploring his creativity through painting, drawing, and storytelling, solely due to his early love of art and music. Hugo's teen years brought on a seismic shift in his outlook on music after he came across the unconventional works of artists like Deadmau5, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Autechre, and John Cage. This prompted him to dive fully into music production, utilizing the digital audio workstation FL Studio. At the "Arjaus Music Academy," where Hugo enrolled after finishing high school, he became proficient in professional music production with Ableton, which was an essential turning point in his artistic growth.

Hugo continues to strive for artistic perfection and makes no secret of the fact that he continually strives to improve his craft; his most recent works are evidence of this refinement and expertise. His most recent album, Flower Preview, from his second album as Hugo Granzner, is very meaningful to him because it is about a woman who was of immense significance to him at the time. Unveiling a collection of appealing tracks, the album captures the essence of beauty, embodying Hugo's desire to produce ethereal and captivating sounds.

When one explores Hugo's musical palette, it becomes clear that his influences extend beyond traditional musical domains. The revolutionary works of Aphex Twin, John Cage, Boards of Canada, and Richard Wagner have had a significant impact on his artistic vision. In addition, he draws inspiration from a wide range of artistic disciplines and pioneering figures such as Alfred Jarry, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, Hans Richter, Johannes Baader, and Boris Vian.

Hugo's music stands out from the crowd thanks to his unique sound and philosophical foundations. Hugo openly aligns himself with vanguardist movements such as futurism and dadaism, resisting the allure of postmodernist influences. His avant-garde sounds herald a steadfast commitment to challenging contemporary norms.

Hugo ardently asserts the sanctity and magic of the studio as a sanctuary for unrestricted artistic expression, comparing the process to the pure exhilaration of falling in love when addressing the issue with regard to studio or live performance preferences. Hugo recognizes the creative appeal of live performances, but he views them as more engaging yet less transcendental than the intimate allure of studio work.
