Alec Troniq

ALEC TRONIQ is the radar for electronic music. Even two decades ago, when synthetic waves captured the ears of a whole nation, his senses were already tuned to receive. Since these days his unwaning claim is to transform Techno and House into more than just club music. A claim which consequently fuels the autodidact to develop his tracks and live performances within a constantly expanding spectrum.

Spirit Catcher

History has spawned hundreds of genius double acts where two minds and talents collide to form something innovative and artistically challenging. Unfortunately, Spirit Catcher are just a pair of european weirdos. As we all know, exciting and romantic collisions happen in, say, Hollywood or London. Not in Belgium. I mean, does Belgium have C.H.I.P.s? Or Hart to Hart? It doesnt. It has bugger all. No heroes, no drama, no action. Chocolates.beer.and Spirit Catcher.

Johnny D

As the son of Eritrean refugees, Johannes Debese a.k.a. Johnny D. became acquainted with a wide array of music styles at an early age – from Tigrinya, the Eritrean music of his heritage, to hip-hop, funk and soul. During the breakbeat-craze in the Rhein-Neckar delta he first came into contact with electronic music at the age of thirteen, soon afterward deciding to take to the turn tables. His first electronic music sets at modest breakbeat events followed, and Johnny D. quickly developed into a versatile artist active in the Mannheim Collective.

Alex Bau

With thousands of records in a collection that spans through many different types, styles and genres of music, certainly there have been many individual records which have left their own, indelible marks. There's no doubt about that! For instance, Alex still does Depeche Mode nights from time to time, just for fun. But his activities with Techno don't suffer at all from that, not in the least! With his 5+ hour sets at his first resident club in his Southeast Bavarian home area, the "Libella", where DJ Hell also started his career back in the 80's...
