Glenn Wilson - My Name Is Techno - Prague - 08 04 17

Techno duo consisting of Lirius (Great Attractor) and Godshownup

...just interested in the world of electronic music preferring Techno, Synthwave, Italo Body and Trance!

Glenn’s evolution into the electronica scene came after being influenced by the electro, hip hop and break-dance movement that swept the UK during the 80’s. The sounds and beats from the likes of bambaataa, together with documentaries about the new york Bronx’s Zulu nation and movies like beat street soon isolated Glenn from the mainstream music his friend’s was listening too at the time. After some years later in 92 Glenn relocating to Sweden where he started dj-ing at a local radio station in Helsingborg south Sweden playing &amp; exposing various forms of techno &amp; house, at the end of 92 he rented some space at the back end of a second-hand record shop where he had a small underground outlet selling to local and national djs and collectors. Later on that same year saw the birth to his own label Called Planet Rhythm the name of which was inspired by the series of mix tapes he use to make from his bedroom dj sessions called planetary rhythms. The label had one purpose and that was to expose the production talents of Swedish artists and at the beginning of 93 Glenn talked about his ideas to a producer called Cari Lekebusch who he had met via a dj in Stockholm who he used to sell records to. Cari agreed to do the first 2 releases for the label And In 94 Glenn relocated to the capital Stockholm to try and expand both the record shop and the label, after a few months a place was found to set up a firm base. Not only was it now a fully independent record shop and record label but it also became home to Cari Lekebusch’s Hybrid Productions &amp; the Hybrid Studio. After a very short time Glenn needed more help in the shop and also new artists for the label. Cari had a few underground producer friends who he had met via various friends and on various parties in and around Stockholm, he explained Planet Rhythm’s concept to them and soon demos where arriving. Adam Beyer, Jesper Dahlbaek (aka Lenk) Thomas Krome, &amp; Fredrik Almqvist (aka RND Technologies) all started producing for Planet Rhythm and the shop soon became a vital hub, meeting point and outlet for anyone and anything involved in the scene, its popularity and its importance as a solid base for anything electronic was soon apparent when it was nominated together with caris hybrid production for the Swedish entertainment prize awards. After a number of releases a remix series for the label was started which broke out from the Swedish circle and started using international artists like The Advent &amp; Cristian Vogel. This came about not in an attempt to get noticed on an international scale but was infact a request by the likes of Cisco himself who liked what the label was releasing. At that time Cisco was the co producer of some of the most respected outputs being released like CJ Bolland's 4th sign so to Glenn a bigger compliment couldn’t have been made and a big opportunity like this could not be missed. After a steady rise in popularity both nationally and internationally the problem for expansion was very clear, “distribution and distributors”. In 95 Glenn relocated to England where he was to concentrate more on the distribution network but before doing so set up Planet Rhythm UK that was to provide a more selection of artists from around the world but still hold a Swedish Connection.






Planet Rhythm UK still released many of its Swedish producers like Adam Beyer, Cari Lekebush, Jesper Dahlbaek, Thomas Krome &amp; Fredrik almqvist but also under different names, such as Cari as Shapechanger and Fredrik as 40ft Puma. Planet Rhythm UK wanted to reflect a more Global Mixture of artists and released the early works of artists Like: Gaetek, Umek, Andrei Morant as well as Glenn himself, It also started breaking down the gender barriers by releasing work by female producers such as Jana Clemen (aka Abstract Soul). Many others have found their way onto Planet Rhythm UK like Headroom, Slobodan, Ignition Technician, Lars Klein and Robert Natus just to mention a few. In 96 Planet Rhythm started its first sub-label called Template that featured Glenn’s work as ventilator as well as releasing music from artists such as Lash (aka Gaetek), Jack Mackrel, Postor (aka Savinto), Ind-Ex, Tuomas Rantanen &amp; Render (aka headroom). While dj-ing at a party in Slovenia Glenn met up with producer Mike Humphries and realized they had similar music &amp; production tastes &amp; set up Punish Records Which they use to release most of there own productions. The raw edgy techno it was releasing soon got noticed by the likes of dj rush and Dave Clarke just to mention a few, and with the classic punish 4 release “Aural exciter” the label truly got accepted as one of the great uk techno labels. Intact the label went on to be the outlet for Glenn’s debut album entitled “nightshift” Which was true to the raw techno vibe the label had become famous for. In January 99 Glenn Set up Compound which is dedicated to getting back to the early values of Planet Rhythm and searching for tomorrow's producers. This label was a huge hit with the hard driving phat clubbing techno sound that engulfed the new millennium and was soon seeing a dedicated following from top djs on the techno circuit. In the winter of 2001 Heroes was engineered and brought to life and at present is planned to be the outlet for production souly from Glenn himself. Concentrating mainly on forward driving hard edged electronic funk Glenn sets out to output concept releases that will take on imaginative vinyl designs along with special free insert media and promotion for the train spotters and collectors. After the instant success of heroes Glenn set up the Heroes X Series which is remixes of the original heroes tracks and to date has featured exclusive remixes from Glenn himself and also from today's pioneering producers such as Chris McCormack, Ignition Technician, Mike Humphries, Alexander Kowalski, Lars Klein, Michael Burkat, The Anxious and Patrick Skoog. In mid 2005 the trilogy was completed when Glenn after 10 years teamed up again with Cari but this time to release the first of the Heroes international series. During late 2005 to late 2007 Glenn took time out to contemplate new horizons one of which saw him return in 2008 with the revamped compound label and his “phoenix ep”, also in this year Glenn teamed up with Gayle San on her Equator label, which saw not only solo projects evolve but also Studio collaborations as well as remixes from gayles back catalog on other labels.






2010 sees many exciting things happening, one of which includes the construction of the brand new Rhythm Lab studio which is due for completion in the 1st week of February. Another thing soon to go live in 2010 is Glenn’s new webpage that will see him make available an exclusive library of beats, rhythms, sounds and back catalog from Heroes, Punish, Compound and more. Last but not least see's the relaunch of the infamous Heroes &amp; Punish record labels which set the standard for techno during the early to mid 2000 years. An intense workaholic Glenn is hard at work creating tunes both for his own label and for others and is once again taking bookings for his energetic live performances which has seen him scour the globe with his compact live rig
