Sanity is Strange

But this has done it. These guys started following me today on twitter and when I went to check them out before returning the favor I found this…

Hope you enjoy is as much as I did. I am going out to buy their album for International Record Store Day tomorrow!

Born and raised in Frankfurt / Germany, Miro started to get involved into techno back in 1991 when Sven Vath was resident DJ in the legendary OMEN Club, which Mr. Pajic visited every weekend until the mid 90’s. With borrowed equipment (a TR-606 and an MC-202 + a little Spirit Folio mixer) he recorded his very first demo on cassette and passed it to the notorious guys from PCP (Planet Core Productions), which were quite big back then and very involved in the world of techno. (Makers of ‘Frankfurt Trax‘ series as an example) They released 2 tracks on vinyl and his first 7′ called ‘MIRO1′ was born. That was in 1993.

The split up of ‘techno house’ into all the genres such as trance, hardcore, gabber, breakbeat etc and being stuck to the PCP clan, sucked him more and more into the harder sides of the techno aftermath. Miro started producing alot of records and became the second main producer next to Marc Acardipane (The Mover, Mescalinum United, Ace The Space etc), who’s reputation was very high.

Miro with his dozens of aliases has created some of the biggest hits in the hardcore sector and is definitely a real legend within that scene. With about 70 vinyl releases produced by Miro, the PCP era was closed near the millenium. Besides working on some harder productions it was getting a bit quiet until he moved to Berlin in 2006. His taste and influences have changed alot. Since then he hooked up with several Berlin and USA based artists and released on labels such as Klickhaus, Kiddaz.fm, Proper NYC and Tora Tora Tora - a beginning of a new phase of his life as a musician.

By now he has found his very own and unique style within the Minimal Techno sector. Miro’s productions are mainly nothing for beginners but mostly carry a deep heaviness and psychotic drug atmosphere which can be heard regulary on his own label Lazerslut since january 2008. After 15 years of being involved and knowing what it means to fight for his dreams, his name and reputation is on a rising path in this gigantic ocean of techno today!

Miro will be joining us in Memphis on May 9th 2009 for one special evening. Please come out and enjoy, check out http://www.lforadio.com for more information.I will provide more insight into this artist and his music following this event, so check back around that time.

Somewhat speachless on this one.

This looks really cool and sounds pretty cool to. If you added an 909 and some synth melodies it might actually make for some really good stuff.

Dr Zues (Terry Blake) Wears a Faraday Suit and holds two “Lightsabers”, and on either side of him are 12KW Tesla coils. I believe the musical notes are made by varing the voltage of the coils and the sound is produced by the electrical arcs. Very interesting. I will have to look into how this is programed.

I want this setup!
