8 Tracks: For The Car With Dj Hell
There are very few whom can claim to have played as influential a role as the infamous Dj Hell. Introduced to obscure experimental electronics during the 1960's and 1970's he steadily began to acquire a taste for nightlife and club culture. He pioneered a new wave of techno producers during the early nineties and has released music on an array of prominent labels including R&S, Sativae and Magnetic North. However, it was his own International Deejay Gigolo Records upon which he built a firm foundation for his signature sound. Next month he will release a brand new album on the label, his first in a significant spell.
We caught up with him ahead of the release to talk eight.
„Zukunftsmusik“ is out on the 9th of June, follow him on Facebook HERE.
