Tool...8_BergWacht_Promomix_Jan12

With this debut release, Cologne’s new imprint BergWacht Records presents an impressive first
shortcut of its musical vision. Melodic and soulful techno, intended to establish harmonious and
danceable electronic music with a touch of melancholy: the typical “sound of BergWacht”. Support
and played by : Ryan Davis, PHM, Blake Sutherland, Paul Hazendonk, David Prap, Deepfunk, Ina
Becker, Ryan Sullivan, Manual Music, Inlab rec. and more. Robin from Cinematique said :
“Congratulations to the wonderful BergWacht crew for putting out their first release. Nice to see
Tool...8 getting a well deserved EP. Very warm original and also both remixes are top class. Full
support. „
“Schmitzhöhe (Original)” by TooL…8 is a symbiosis of warm, dreamy tunes, emotional sub-bass and
slowly rising, powerful bassline. This all peaks in a feeling of remembering a wonderful, bygone
memory. The artist’s huge passion for detail is evidenced by their complex arrangement building and
a wealth of beautiful synths to enchant both open-air and club floors.
On B1, experimental and sometimes abstract Lanny May takes you on a journey through different
feelings and atmos that let you travel along organic, living pieces of sound, full of changing phrases
and epic parts. Expect the unexpected – and a remix that, bit by bit, is evolving into an independent,
extraordinary Lanny May track.
From the very first second on B2, Boss Axis’ personal touch is showing up straightly. Strong and
intense synths, a grasping groove and the centerpiece, an incisive, ruling kick, unmistakably cause
this effect. A perfect example for giving individual style to an original without losing even a little bit
of its core essence and meaning.
This selection of artists can be seen as a cross section of BergWacht’s history so far. Maximilian Keck
and Sven Kirchner, known as TooL…8, have been part of BergWacht family and artists since it all
began. After several BergWacht


Tool...8_schmitzhoehe (live mix)(snippet)

TooL…8 are Sven Kirchner alias Horst Koffer and Max Keck, also known as Max Knospe. With their live-sets these two Bergisch guys (residents of BergWacht) are a fixture of BergWacht for a long time and do now have their first label-signing with “Schmitzhöhe”, the debut release on BergWacht Records. 
Horst and Max are tuning techno tracks since 2007 – and since the beginning of 2011 they are tuning together as TooL…8. Their productions can be classed with melodic techno / techno, playful and harmonious, and often are like a pure blossoming of emotions and feelings, which they try to perform in their own manner.

TooL...8 besteht aus Sven Kirchner alias Horst Koffer und Max Keck, auch bekannt als Max Knospe. Die beiden bergischen Jungs (BergWacht-Residents) gehören mit ihren Live-Sets schon lange zum BergWacht-Inventar und haben nun ihr erstes Label-Signing mit „Schmitzhöhe“ dem Debüt-Release auf BergWacht Records. 
Horst und Max schrauben seit 2007 an Techno Tracks und seit Anfang 2011 zusammen als TooL...8. 
Was sie produzieren ist in Melodic Techno / Techno einzuordnen, verspielt, harmonievoll und ist oft ein reines Aufblühen von Emotionen und Gefühlen, die, die Zwei, auf ihre eigene Art und Weise versuchen wiederzugeben.
