Echocord Records is Founded in 2001 in Copenhagen, Denmark by the Danish DJ & Clubowner Kenneth Christiansen.

It all started when Kenneth in the beginning of 2002 met Mikkel Meldgaard aka Mikkel Metal in a small recordshop where Kenneth was working. Kenneth has been thinking about starting a label for a while at that time, and when he heard the tracks from Mikkel he knew it was time. Already at that time he knew some of the people at Kompakt, so it was the place to try to get a distribution deal. Wolfgang & Michael liked it a lot so this was the beginning of a already now long relationship. A lot of things has happend since, many new artists has been signed. Tjeck the big rooster. The musicprofile has always been circling around Dub Music. from Electronica-Dub to Dub-Techno and House. Kenneth has always been very inspired from what came out of Berlin and the Hardwax Camp like Basic Channel, Chain Reaction & the DIN label, which you can hear on the label and in his dj-sets.

Echocord Colour was founded in 2008 as the sublabel of Echocord Records.

Kenneth has been thinking about starting a second label for a long time, mostly because he had received so many good demoes, which he wants to release, but also because he wants to have a label where music for the dancefloor is in focus. It can be Dub-Techno it can be Detroit-Techno or House or even Dubstep, but all quality music for the dancefloor.

Brendon Moeller is a boundary-pushing producer whose sound is rooted in dub and techno and incorporates subtle undertones of jazz, shoegaze and afrobeat.

Brendon grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa. Throughout his childhood and teenage years, he learned piano and drums, finding particular inspiration in the music of artists such as Fela Kuti, My Bloody Valentine, De La Soul and Kraftwerk.

However, it was not until 1993, when Brendon moved to New York City, that his own individual style began to develop. With NYC as his base, he has worked with several prominent labels and collaborated with artists like Mikey Dread, Speedy J, Mutabaruka and MATRiXXMAN.

With dozens of EPs, singles and albums to his name, Brendon’s love for experimenting with sound has created an endless source of inspiration to continuously self-reflect and advance his music. Brendon is consistently striving to reinvent himself and skillfully influence the dub scene in the process.

“I’m incredibly blessed and fortunate. Without my wife, none of this would be possible.”

Born in 1980 and raised in the Detroit area, Luke Hess has harnessed a deep appreciation for electronic music and the expression of the underground movement. 

His background in mathematics and engineering has given him a scientific approach to the dance floor, using frequencies, tones, and soundscapes to transform surroundings and mood. 
In 2003 he recorded his first promotional mix CD release for UR/Submerge. Since then, his faith based music production has landed him a seat with FXHE and Planet-e in Detroit. 

His debut album was released in early May 2009 by Denmark based label Echocord. 
In 2010 he began his own interpretation of Detroit techno with his new Detroit project and record label - DeepLabs. 

His sophomore album “Keep On” was released on FXHE records in 2012 and received a Recommended 4.5/5 rating on Resident Advisor. 

Hess is regarded as a perfectionist in his live sets and behind the decks layering his tracks in a very detailed and hypnotic manner. 
He has played at notable venues and events such as Tresor (Berlin), Culture Box (Copenhagen), Berghain (Berlin), Unit (Tokyo), Detroit Electronic Music Festival (Detroit), Fabric (London), The End Up (San Francisco), Golden Pudel (Hamburg), Sirup (Zagreb), Weekend Club (Berlin), Cubic Club (Madrid), Space (Ibiza), The Bunker (NYC) and many other venues all over the world. 

Luke’s continued hard work in the studio and in his performances combined with his unyielding interest in technology and sound will no doubt stimulate the boundaries of electronic music.

Resoe aka Dennis Uprock has been involved in the music business for more than 30 years. He started out as a hip hop dj in 1986 at the early age of 14, but when house made it’s impact in Europe in the late 80’s he picked up on that and his passion for electronic music was born.

He played as a techno dj in the early 90’s – he played more or less in every underground club in his hometown of Copenhagen. In 1997 he started to work in the legendary record store “Loud music” which was one of the main institutions of the Copenhagen underground electronic music scene.

In 1998 Resoe bought his first sampler. He experimented for years in the studio, twisting knobs and cutting up samples to improve his production skills. He is a member of the Danish hip hop/soul collective “Nobody beats the beats” where he released the single “Abstract Soul feat. Joy Morgan: Can’t i be loved” on the album “The second coming”.

He then got involved with a project the Danish national radio launched in 2004 called “Radio Recordings Vol. 1″ where he released the track “Krew: Industrial dawn”. In 2005 he got contacted by Beta Lounge (Hamburg) about a collaboration between them, and the library label “Selected Sound” where he produced 9 tracks as “Sedrian” for the Selectronica series.

In 2007 he decided to start up his own label Baum records, to create a platform for his own and other artists releases. So far the releases on his label has included, besides himself; Leftover, Johan Fotmeijer, Atheus and Marko Fürstenberg.

In 2008 he started yet another new project with Kenneth Christiansen (Echocord): Pattern Repeat. The first release by Pattern Repeat was released on Echocord Colour and soon after Resoe and Kenneth started the label Pattern Repeat – to have a platform to release their own productions.

Resoe’s dj skills has made him play at clubs like Berghain, Fabric, Weekend Club and Culture Box to name just a few. In the beginning of 2010 Resoe started to work on his live set to promote his highly acclaimed debut album which was released on Echocord in January 2011.

Resoe is a producer who likes all kinds of music, which shines through in his productions. When he is in his studio he tries to combine all these inspirations from different kinds of music, into his own production soundscape. Resoe is often associated with the new breed of “Deep Dub Techno” producers, but he would describe his style more as  a diverse producer, who have some Dub elements in his music, but not only stick to that. When listening to his debut album,  he is spreading his skills over a wide spectra of genres, with some Dub infection to it.
