Founded by DJ and producer Discrete Circuit in 2012, AWAY was born in Berlin out of a purist desire to establish a party for timeless house and techno music. In the early days, AWAY moved from multiple in- and outdoor venues to showcases across Europe to ultimately finding a stable home base at the About Blank club in 2015. Quickly they earned a reputation as a must-attend event series without losing its underground credibility.

The foundation of every great movement is rooted in shared beliefs. Partisan, Anthea's inaugural imprint, embodies this concept by bringing together artists of a similar ethos, bound together by a common desire to enhance the current musical landscape.  Ranging from house to techno and electro, Partisan's releases move beyond genre barriers-a diminishing trait amongst the highly niche labels of today.

Launching in 2016, Partisan premiered with Oshana's "Arcadia" release, a warm, minimal-house groover supported by many key industry players.  The release proved to be an instant success, selling out in a matter of weeks.  The momentum continued with a string of vibrant EP's from label mates Inner, Giammarco Orsini, Kashawar, Fern, Ish, Cobert, Otis, Lapucci, and label boss, Anthea. This eclectic, yet talented group of artists formed from a long-standing relationship with Anthea, who felt deeply connected to their music.  Drawing from this inspiration, she created the Partisan platform to materialize ideas from artists whom are close to her heart and share their music with the world.  

Since its inception, Partisan has expanded with a growing list of talent and showcases around the world.  With dates at the notorious Club Der Visionaere in Berlin, Rex Club in Paris, and Resolute in New York City to name a few, the Partisan movement continues to thrive with momentum.  As the Partisan label continues to evolve, its dynamic, intelligent, and floor-minded aesthetic will push it to the forefront of labels for years to come.

“Frankfurt native Andreas Baumecker aka nd_baumecker began his DJ career in 1991 in a bar called Romantica, located near the city’s main train station. The venue was run by legendary nightlife impresario Hans Romanov, who also operated Intimbar, where Baumecker would eventually move on to a short time later. It’s there that Ata and Heiko M/S/O from Playhouse took notice, inviting Baumecker to work as a buyer for their record store Delirium and offering him a residency at their seminal WildPitchClub night at the Club Nachtleben. Soon, Baumecker was regularly playing Frankfurt’s numerous electronic music venues (Box, XS, Music Hall, Dorian Grey), before moving on to Heidelberg, where he promoted the club night HD800 together with Dirk Mantei aka D-Man. After a short stop in Mannheim, regular guest DJ sets at Berghain / Panorama Bar predecessor club OstGut in Berlin, and establishing his own label Freundinnen Audio, nd_baumecker moved to the German capital in 2004. There he not only picked up a residency at Panorama Bar inside the newly opened Berghain but also started a job as the club’s in-house booker.
Stylistically, Baumecker covers a truly broad spectrum of dance music, refusing to be limited by genre: "A well known choreographer once said: 'Surprise is important.’ I think this approach describes my DJ style best. I’m constantly oscillating between disco, house, techno, electro, broken beats and pop. Ultimately, I’m open to anything – from brute force to tender. I see the dance floor an experimental field: If you manage to really capture the crowd, you can do almost anything with them." Of course, the flow of tracks and resolving musical differences plays a key role in achieving just that, and few DJs are as adept at uniting fundamentally disparate sounds, different keys, different rhythms and different atmospheres. „If something sounds truly new to me they give me a jolt. Also, dance music should have a good portion of funk and, in a way, it needs to sound like disco, whatever the style. I like vocals a lot. In my opinion they are the most important and significant bits you’re taking home after a good night out; they’re the most memorable."
Since 2010 nd also produces with Sam Barker as Barker & Baumecker. The duo have released four 12”s and two albums on Ostgut Ton, operating musically between dancefloor and spiraling left field electronics. Finally, 2018 sees release of nd_baumecker’s Panorama Bar 07 DJ mix.”
