In the early 90s Holeg Spies was one of the first wave of DJs in the European underground techno scene. [4] He also headlined the first techno tour of India in 1995 [5] and then multiple tours of Japan, from 1997 onward. [6] [7]
Holeg Spies approaches music and sound as living organisms that constantly interact with their environment. He defines this concept as "Ecophonism" [8] , an artistic approach in which space becomes a co-composer and the listener a sonic inhabitant within the musical process.
As a film composer, he has collaborated on multiple scores [9] with Patrick Savage, including the 2009 cult horror film The Human Centipede (First Sequence) , and the award-winning Abruptio . Together they have often been credited as "Savage & Spies" [10]
