Getter – DJ from the USA

Getter is a DJ, producer, and rapper, whose real name is Tanner Petulla. He was born on 13 April 1993, in San Jose, California. The artist was a fan of music since middle school. He uploaded the first recordings to Soundcloud, hoping to become famous. However, the long-awaited popularity came to the young man after an official release of his tracks with the support of record labels.

At 17, Tanner started to work as a DJ and received support from downlink and Datsik. In 2010, he started attending the electronic music festival, EDC.

In 2014, the musician released an EP, Trenchlords Vol. 1. It featured four tracks, recorded with the assistance of Algo and Deemed. After the release, in one of the interviews, Getter explained that he doesn’t like focusing on one genre or subgenre. Tracks from the album, according to his opinion, sounded rough, short, and interesting. The EP was available for free because the DJ wanted to give his fans an opportunity to enjoy his music without limitations.

In October 2015, the artist released a 9-second teaser of his new track, which he recorded together with Skrillex. A month later, Petulla went to Vancouver to perform in Red Room Ultra Bar. The same year, he released another EP called Planet Neutral. The album featured calmer music compared to the previous release. At that time, many clubs tried to book Getter for private events.
In the spring of 2016, the musician came up with a new EP, Radical Dude!, which featured heavy dubstep and bass. The leading track “Back” turned out to be exciting regardless of the heavy sound. To record another song, “In the Cuts”, the artist invited Sneek. He also collaborated with Adair and Georgia Ku to release “Blood”.

In August 2016, Getter presented a remix of Marshmello’s “Alone”, recorded with the assistance of Monstercat record label. A month later, he released another EP, which contained seven tracks. What The Frick was recorded in the OWSLA studio. The day of the release, the label also presented an official music video for the popular track “Head Spitter”. It collected more than 30 million views on YouTube.

In 2017, the famous DJ performed at the Snowbombing music festival in Canada. He appeared on the stage with other famous artists. The same year, Tanner founded a label and launched a fashion collection. The first track recorded with Getter’s label was “Inhalant Abuse”. Before the year was over, he recorded such new hits as "Solo" with Party Nails, "Big Mouth", "Dead To Me", "Colorblind", and "The Otha Side".

In February 2018, Getter presented a new track “Colorblind”. In March, the artist told his fans that the song would become the lead single for his next LP, Visceral. In an interview for Run the Trap, the DJ talked about his plans to surprise the fans.
