Video featuring Plan 9 From Outer Space (Edward D. Wood Jr. 1959) Some scenes have frozen and I have no idea why. Apologies if it spoils your enjoyment 🙁 Redshape – Dead Space Mix (Edit) Taken from the album, The Dance Paradox (Delsin | 80dsr/rds-cd1 | 2009) | DARK | Sebastian Kramer (Redshape)… Born in the depth of East Germany, Sebastian was always a strong believer that if things were to improve he would need to take it into his own hands. In early 1995 he started to experiment with basic music programs. Influenced by the Detroit Techno era in the early 90’s, Sebastian formed his own interpretation of this vision, a reflection of the culture and surroundings he grew up in. He set about to produce music and to DJ professionally. The year 2000 saw Sebastian’s first vinyl achievement, his 4 tracker Instant EP was released on his own label Content (CNT#00A). This very limited release was enjoyed by many and had heavy rotation in the DJ sets from artists as renowned as Jeff Mills… More records were soon to follow in 2001 and 2002… respectfully LOCH 06 and 08. Sebastian soon got back to work on his own label for the next release (CNT#00B – again strictly limited). Current releases on Pure Plastic, Coda Records, Mainout and even his own Content imprint pushed the name – Sebastian Kramer to advanced listeners around the globe. Played by Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke, Claude Young, Ben Sims, James Ruskin, Oliver Ho and Steve Bicknell, Sebastian’s music is more than well …

Quantec – Ray Of Hope
Quantec – Ray Of Hope Taken from the EP, Ray Of Hope (Echocord Colour 2008) | DEEPNESS | Sven Schienhammer (Quantec, Monoaxial)… Sven Schienhammer grew up in the 80’s. Producing and remixing electronic music since 1995 first using hardware tools such as Rolands MC 505 and a 303 with some EFX tools. Now the studio is hardware and software in symbiosis.

Convextion – Miranda (Deep Chord Remix)
DeepChord is two seperate words on this release. No bitching! 😉 Convextion – Miranda (Deep Chord Remix) Taken from the EP, Miranda (Remixes) (Matrix Records [Detroit] 2007) | DC | DUB | Gerard Hanson (Convextion, ERP, ERP) Gerard Hanson was born in 1972. He hails from the unlikely environments of Dallas, Texas USA. Little is known about this producer who seems to have Scandinavian roots. His productions have reflections with Basic Channel/Chain Reaction sound. His main inspirations are Juan Atkins and Derrick May. His music also has influences from Stefan Robbers, Red Planet and Carl Craig. He found a way where everything came together: Deepness, Minimalism and Soul, the Detroit-Berlin connection. In 1994 Gerard Hanson and Dan Kurzius started Hardsync, a Magazine dedicated to electronic music reviews and artist interviews. It has been defunct since 1996 as a result of a computer crash. Hard Sync was an outlet for several Texas-based electronic music enthusiasts to reach out to others around the world that shared similar musical interests. He released his first 12″ in 1995. Ever since his debut 12″ on Matrix in 1995. From 1995-1997, he released 5 EPs, and then only 2 more in the next 6 years until 2005. The reason he produced so infrequently was because when his first releases came out, the tracks were licensed to some big releasers and he did not get paid for them. After that some other labels approached him but just wanted more of the same and didn’t really seem to …
DeepChord – Vantage Isle (cv313 Reduction)
DeepChord – Vantage Isle (cv313 Reduction) Taken from the album, Vantage Isle Sessions (echospace [detroit] 2008) | D | C | DANCER | Rod Modell & Mike Schommer (DeepChord)… Compared often to the works of Maurizio (Moritz Von Oswald) or the Basic Channel releases, the humble composers Rod Modell and Mike Schommer offer a unique blend of dubby beats, crisp static, synthetic analog grooves, and of course lots of deep chords! Its worth noting that DeepChord is now only Rod Modell. (Edited) -last.fm. Rod Model… Rod Modell is a sound designer / electronic music producer from the Detroit area. Began producing music in the mid-80’s using analogue synthesizers and drum machines. To date (July 2007), Modell has about 60 releases to his credit. Rod’s work was focused on elecrto-acoustic experimentation in the early years, making musique concrete compositions with a 4-track cassette machine and field recordings, then branching into industrial soundscape work. More recent recordings utilize more structure and beats, but still retain the atmospherics that Modell is known for. Mood is of paramount importance in a Rod Modell recording (often created with field recordings). Sadly, this element seems to be lost in much of the clicks+cuts DSP music of today. One of Modell’s favourite pastimes is making middle-of-the-night recordings with his portable DAT machine and dummy-head microphone. In the mid-90’s, Modell started Deepchord Records (w/ Mike Schommer) in Detroit, as an outlet for …
