Biografie
Disks & dance duo formed of squareglass co-founders Aviram Barath and Robin Paul Braum.
Renowned for cleverly fusing different musical influences into timeless contemporary jams, Athlete Whippet have become DJ favourites taken to audiences worldwide by the likes of Bicep, Horse Meat Disco and Laurent Garnier. 2018's 12" debut Hands Only, 3am on Berlin's House institution Exploited Records in the same year and second EP Corporate Guy in 2019 have brought critical acclaim by DJ Mag, Boiler Room and RA to name a few. In late 2019, the duo partnered up with Metronomy's Olugbenga for their first collaborative EP Touch which was played again and again on BBC 1 & 6 for months.
Taking a communal approach to music making, they run artist collective and record label Squareglass with Semi Precious - a proudly established home for new artists coming out of their South London base since 2014. They've also been hosting intimate nights with DJs from far across the electronic music ecosystem since 2019. Guest sets from the likes of Seb Wildblood, Aus Music head Will Saul, Lobster Theremin founder Asquith and some of London's brightest new talents have made for some unmissable parties in London's cosiest venues. The duo's releases have also come with reworks from Ross from Friends, Baltra and Max Graef.
Athlete Whippet hit 2020 with their EP 'Your Love Is Lifting Me', an ode to compassion and solidarity supported across the board by BBC 1 & 6, Mixmag, DJ Mag as well as tastemakers including Annie Mac and Jamz Supernova.
