Hercules & Love Affair - DJ-Kicks
Out 10/29 (UK, Europe), 11/13 (USA)
http://www.dj-kicks.com/herculesandloveaffair/

Haze Factory may not be a familiar name to many outside of in-the-know appreciators, but the duo (comprised of Viennese producers Philipp Haffner & Constantin Zeileissen) is currently hard at work with Andy Butler writing the new Hercules And Love Affair album. As evidence that this is something to be excited about, we have their DJ-Kicks exclusive track "A Bit of Redemption." "They made a very Gherkin sounding song," says Butler, "with Detroit-y snare bashes, and very Wild Pitch-y sounding stabs." The track fits perfectly amidst the 90's house classics and classic-minded current productions that make up the mix. DJ-Kicks will be out November 13th in the US with an international release date of October 29th.

Haze Factory - A Bit of Redemption [from Hercules & Love Affair - DJ-Kicks]

The producer/DJ team of Constantin Zeileissen and Philipp Haffner- known as Ha-Ze Factory- was unsurprisingly born in a night club. A 15 year old Philipp Haffner was DJing everything from hip hop to the dance music of the moment, when Constantin Zeileissen approached him. A shared love for the raging 90's European techno and house scene brought them to the fateful cooperative decision to buy an MPC2000 which catapaulted them into the world of production. Inspired by the sounds of the Detroit/Chicago "motherland", they began deftly producing first under their electro moniker Microthol and more recently under the name Ha-Ze Factory. 

They have released on labels such as Trust, Pomelo, Mr. Intl, Puzzlebox, K7, Universal and their forthcoming contribution to the Hercules and Love Affair record is being released on Moshi Moshi Music. Their productions have received praise from luminaries like Terrence Dixon and Anthony "Shake" Shakir. They have had the pleasure of remixing legends such Newcleus, Alexander Robotnick, Supermax and the recently unearthed No-Wave gem Deekay Jones to wave making newcomers like Shaun J Wright and Hercules and Love Affair.

And as far as their DJing- because of a far reaching knowledge of both techno and house they have comfortably rocked a room alongside the likes of techno greats Carl Craig, 
Urban Tribe, Oscar Mulero, and Shed as well as house hitters like Marco Passarani. 
In short, Haffner and Zeileissen's reverence of the roots of techno and house and devotion to articulating what exactly makes a room "go off" makes it possible to describe Ha-Ze Factory in two words- serious party.
