Forever Wondering

Although you might not have heard the name Vellocet before (except if you are a Stanley Kubrick fan) - the guy behind it is not new to the business. With his former projects Maxwell Smart, Nomé or 2 Trick Pony he played himself into the record cases of Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati and other worldclass DJs. The latter excessively played his Remix of Marlose‘s „Avantgardistisch“ as closing track of his DJ Sets. 

With his next project the young DJ and producer now goes back to his roots which are settled in grooving, melodic Techno. Deeply inspired by the sound of Frankfurt, Vellocet started DJing at the age of 17 - under his former alias Maxwell Smart and very soon played residency in his hometown Munich in Freddy Mercurys favorite New York Club. From then on his journey continued through many clubs throughout Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg (Harry Klein, S38, Butan, Soul Kitchen, Studio 22 etc). He now lives in Aachen near Cologne and works as a recording and mastering engineer. 

Besides that, he is a resident DJ as well as planner of the Niemandsland Festival in the most western part of germany which has been home to the likes of Vril, Fjaak, David Vunk and many others and he is constantly developing his production, engineering and DJ skills.

hailing from a modest town in the north-west of England, Frankie Bromley's profound passion and love for techno and electronic music are unmistakable. Introduced to the electronic soundscape at the age of nine by his elder brother, Frankie swiftly cultivated a discerning ear, setting the stage for his venture into music production and DJing during his formative teenage years.

Frankie's musical narrative blossomed notably through his sustained engagement with Manchester's renowned Eastern Bloc record store. Establishing meaningful connections with industry authorities at the store, he earned the opportunity to showcase his talents through vinyl performances at their in-store events. Before reaching the age of 18, Frankie took to the stages of London's Egg Club and Corsica Studios.

In the pivotal year of 2021, Frankie Bromley signed a deal with CLR Records, a label under the stewardship of the esteemed German figure, Chris Liebing. His inaugural EP named Forgiveness, released in September 2021, marked CLR Records' return to techno after a five-year hiatus. As one of the emerging talents in the scene, Frankie's association with the label heralds positive developments for the future.

Venturing beyond the UK in 2022, Frankie embarked on his first international gigs, captivating audiences in Switzerland at the renowned D Club alongside Terrence Fixmer and Chris Liebing. Notably, he shared the stage once again with Chris Liebing in Frankfurt, his hometown.

What lies ahead for Frankie Bromley? Having dedicated several years to distancing himself from the music industry and immersing solely in the pursuit of music production and audio engineering, Frankie's forthcoming creations and artistic endeavors are poised to be a source of admiration and delight in the evolving landscape of electronic music.
