Kurzes Intro auf Deutsch - hier ein Projekt aus meiner Lieblingsschublade Electronic Music - letztes Wochenende waren all meine Dance Weekend Posts auf Deutsch - heute mal umgekehrt, deutsches Intro - der Rest in Englisch geschrieben
Dance Weekend soon on DLive?
Dance Addicts on Steemit - Today I present a pioneering German Trance Project that was very popular in the community but might not came to a wide public fame given the nature of the Music. As I missed to post to my own challenge yesterday as my princess kept me busy - today bit more written content and Tunes for you to (hopefully) enjoy for Dance Weekend!
I am excited about the new tools and developments on this blockchain like DTube and DLive. We have to research the opportunities of DLive still a bit but I hope we can handle a real Dance Weekend over DLive soon. What be cool to remix LIVE ideally with other fellow DJs and producers like @andyjaypowell @mikenero @djpoertsch - not sure yet how but we are getting there.
Drax - Amphetamine (1994)
Ok - who is Drax? There is guy from Germany behind this project called Thomas P. Heckmann. He started doing Techno professionally in 1991 by releasing EXIT 100 - Liquid. Originally he got into the scene after all sorts of electronic music after getting to know the likes of KLF and 808 STATE. So he landed in the new acid and techno styles in 1989.
He had the opportunity to work on some Techno stuff in the UK and was a real pioneer producer in Germany. Some of his projects did include to release new acid styles in the likeness of Underground Resistance and +8 in Germany with his other projects on Force Inc - Age and Skydiver. He launched his own music label in 1993 called TROPE RECORDINGS with his first release under his most successful project DRAX - here we go the awesome tune again!
It was reported the label did invent new styles, sounds and record-formats. It became a leading Techno label in Germany. In 1994 he started another new label called Acid Fucker Unite (A.F.U) lol - this guy is really cool Steemians!
First chart breaker here was "Drax Ltd. II - Amphetamine" which was an immense crossover hit - acid house techno - hard to categorise (check here two versions). After that even more sounds, styles and labels were born because of him but that might be too long to read all! Thomas still is DJ-ing - a great innovative personality if I may judge that.
Thomas P. Heckmann hat super Tracks gemacht. Amphetamine war ein richtiger Club Burner :-) DLive hört sich interessant an.......
Genau genau - Du bist der Profi - DLive wäre cool - miss das Thema noch genauer durchschauen, was da wirklich machbar ist.
Wollte mir letztens einen DLive Stream anschauen, ging aber nicht :-( Bin gespannt, welche Möglichkeiten es dort gibt :-)
in Trance You trust :) und ich bin in der totalen techno Stimmung wieder Mal. Happy weekend!!
Amphetamine ist wirklich einer DER Klassiker der Techno Musik schlechthin.
Diese Scheibe darf in keiner gepfleghten Vinylsammlung fehlen.
Zumal es so eine schöne Picture Disc davon gibt!
Aber echt, picture disc, hast Du die?
;-) ;-) ;-)
Drax!!! Ok I have obviously made the right choice in steemit and dtube as my platform for my modular synth music performances if mf’in DRAX is getting some steemit love. Didn’t know much backstory. Thanks homie!
Wow, bringt schöne Erinerungen zurück vom Trance Classic Parties in die Niederlande :)
