At the early 80s, there was no Technics no CDs no Traktor, i mixed on Thorens MKII, at the Big Club at Dorian Gray in Frankfurt, starting from 21:00 untill 11:00 next morning, no break no drugs, when music in Clubs was pure soul, everything mixed together Rap, Disco, Soul, Electronic, New Wave. i DJed there from 1982 to 1985 with the best Lightjockeys in the World, Ferno Madmud, Frank Hildmann, Andreas Röhl and Uwe Heinzelman. Without this fantastic journey i would never become such a successful Musicproducer and Songwriter. Thanks to Gerd Schüler and Michael Presinger to let me rock there Club

Michael Muenzing Live At Dorian Gray 03.12.1983 Tape1

PowerStateFailure is Paul O'Connell. I am an 80's kid and heavily influenced by the new wave synthesised sound that evolved during that era.  I started out DJ'ing in house and techno sounds and was privileged to be involved in both on pirate radio and on the Dublin clubbing scene in the early 90's. I progressed to home studio recording in the noughties and have been playing with synthesizers in my set up for over a decade. I consider myself kind of eclectic when it comes to producing, and my styles vary, depending on the mood. I hope you find something you like. Available for gigs.
