About Kolibri Live LP
Kolibri Live LP marks a major milestone for PETRU KSS: his debut album, recorded between the wild landscapes of Corsica and the underground pulse of London.
Mixed by acclaimed engineer Hannes Bieger and mastered at Calyx, it stands as a statement that, even in an age of AI-driven creation, human risk, imperfection and imagination remain at the heart of art. Out via Kolibri Space Shuttle Records, the album will unfold in multiple EPs/chapters from October 2025 to early 2026.

PETRU KSS – Kolibri Live – Remix Contest ––– Registration Form
Corsican-born producer and live performer, PETRU thrives with bold, driving techno and storytelling. Blending rhythmic precision with a strong sense of narrative and contrast, his music evokes both physical intensity and cinematic depth.
Rooted in hands-on, expressive, hardware-centric production, PETRU was awarded the Richie Hawtin PhD Scholarship in Electronic Music for his ongoing research project THRiPPS – Techno, Hardware-centric, Real-time, Improvisation, Production and Performance Study, which explores live, improvisational performance practices.
After drawing attention with his debut KSS EP and then Mediocracy on Kolibri Space Shuttle Records, PETRU released Mirage and Drifting Embers on long-standing UK label City Wall Records. His well-received EPs featured remixes from established producers such as Alexander Kowalski and Developer. His forthcoming debut album, Kolibri Live LP, marks an important milestone: a cinematic and immersive voyage from nature to space, recorded live in the wilderness of Corsica, with growing support from respected figures across the scene.
