a Ghost of a Chance with you (La Huida) 

You might discover
If you'd surrender

And I don't stand a ghost
Of a chance with you
If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two

You might discover
If you'd surrender

With you

3 QUESTIONS to NIKO SCHWIND

Q: You´ve been touring all over the world yet. What´s your favorite place? And where did you have the greatest partys? 

A: It´s hard to choose one country but I am definitly in love with Australia and Switzerland. To be part of the Rainbow Serpent Festival down under was one of my best experiences of my DJ career. 

Q: Obviously 90% of your music releases appear on Stil Vor Talent. What´s your special relation to this label? 

A: Since I've been part of it for close to 10 years now, the label has become a family to me and many of the artists are good friends to me, which shouldn't be taken for granted in these fast-paced, globalized times.

Q: Are there any news you want to tell us – what´s coming up this summer? 

A: Beside our Stil vor Talent Festivals during the summer, I'm really looking forward to my first gig at Melt Festival this July. New music will be released in late August on Stil vor Talent, as well.

3Q to GABRIEL ANANDA:

Q: You released your music for about 15-20 years yet. Tell us about your mix. How did these tracks shape your artist career? 

A: Its all in a chronologic order. First contact with a kinda minimal, drum based music is come together from the beatles. I found it in a pile of old 7"s from my uncles music box. I couldn´t read, but the record with the apple was my favorite. I think that this song is still so modern. "Infinity" blew me away. Its actually not a theme of 4 or 8 bars, it has 5! That makes it, besides the music, so special. Still inpiring. "Rhythm Is A Dancer" was my first dancing experience on a school trip. These layers of sound and groove put me into a trance in seconds. Masterpiece. "L' esperanza" itself is a nice track and the video on TV made Sven look like a nice guy. So I decided to go on his party after the Loveparade 1995 which led me into the world of "real techno". That day I decided to become a musician for electronic music. "Gravitational Arch of Ten": Beauty, mystic and pure love for life. This is techno for me, I was never so interested in dark techno. On that party in 1995 Sven played black labs, space bar. On a tiny video cut I could find it and it stayed in my head and on my search list for over a decade. When I finally found it i made a remaster and edit. And eventually this year I rereleased it on soulful techno records. Richie Hawtin is not only a cool guy with a laser outfit and an image of a half god, he actually really created landmarks in electronic music. "Panic Attack" was probably 10 years ahead of time and is a blue print for minimal music which got big around 2003.  So in the late 1990s I entered the clubs and made my first records. Especially in the last years before 2000 the music was so hard and hypnotic. I only liked a few tracks, especially Marco Carolas "Hypnotisamus". I think you cant nail it more. In the early 2000s I started to focus on my roots, melodies and emotions. At that time Mathew Jonson popped up with his unbelievable melodies and aestetics. He inspired me a lot! I am still a big fan of him. One of a very few real musicians in techno. Until 2010 I dont remember so many tracks right now. Next mindblowing thing was Rainbow Serpent festival in Australia. Everybody in gothic or tribal costumes and smiling and dancing on a totally different music. Glitch Hop. 100 Bpm, kinda dubsteo like but with a totally different approach. Instead of beeing dark and as hard as possible, most of it is so positive and playful. I start right now to bring this style into my productions. My Favorite track of this and last years is "Sordid Affair". It touches me, it sounds great, its cool. What a perfect track. Maceo Plex is a real master in my eyes and deserves a mention here.

Q: You played your music all over the world yet. Which place has always been a special one for you, a place you won´t miss?

A: That is really difficult to say. There are so many great events and each has a special vibe. I love to play on open air festivals, but there are also a lot of great club events. Playing Thuishaven or Georgies Wundergarten, as well as Awakenings is always special. I was in Morocco for the first time this year and this was also a really great event with a lovely crowd. So it is not easy to pick the one and only here :)

Q: Which new projects can we expect soon?
 
A: We really worked hard on the complete Gabriel Ananda project the last months, and have a lot of amazing projects coming up. We will release a „Selected Remixes Compilation“ with 20 of my favorite remixes from the last years beginning of 2017, I´m already working on a studio album, some great cooperations and EPs and we will have the first label night from my new label Soulful Techno at Artheater in Cologne in February and this is just the tip of the iceberg. So it will be another exciting year.

Q: Talking about your mix. How did these tracks influence your later career?

A: It´s really hard to pick out some special tracks of the past, as there are so many I loved to play in my sets. This is a mix between older tracks, which really shaped my musicial style in the beginning of my DJ career as well as tracks which have an important weight for me. In the second half I also used some of the newer tracks I am playing in the moment. So its nice to see the development of the music I played in the last 12 years.

Q: Besides DJing and producing you´re working for Upon.You. What´s your job there?

A: I am not really working for Upon You as we were always a big family and it was more the passion for the label which took all of us to where we are today. 

Q: Which Gunnar Stiller releases are coming soon?

A: There is definitely a new ep planned for Upon You as well as for Smiley Fingers. Currently I am working on a remix for my good friend Alexander Aurel and I have some ideas and wishes for the next months - lets see how it all comes together.

Alkalino • Harry Klein Podcast 72

HOW I MET THE BASS is a concept series, founded and hosted by @marc-depulse. 

It's not about mixing the current charts - it's about your roots. A storyteller. Music from your childhood and youth that once had a big impact on your later doings, showing musicially how you got in touch with Electronic Music back in the days.

Marc tells about his project:

"Techno is a huge family. These are my experiences when I'm coming to different cities and places every weekend. Doesn't matter who you are and where you're coming from. It's about making friends and having a good time together. I have met so many interesting artists during the last 2 decades and all of them love to tell their own exciting story. So I'm inviting my favorite artists from time to time to mix their musicial roots within a podcast."
