Hallo liebe Liebenden,

in dieser Woche stand Liho für uns den Decks. 
Liho ist Kölner und heißt mit bürgerlichem Namen Denis und ist Begründer der sich nun im elften Jahr befindenden Partyreihe BergWacht.
BergWacht versteht sich aber nicht nur als Partyreihe, sondern ist auch mit der Zeit ein Label geworden. 
Das Label veröffentlicht den auch durch die Partyreihe Populär gemachten typischen BergWacht sound, irgendwo zwischen Melodictechno und Progressivhouse.
Liho hat sich mit dem BergWacht Projekt in Köln sein eigenes kleines Denkmal geschaffen, so ist um dieses Projekt kein herumkommen wenn man sich in der Kölner Clubszene bewegt.

An dieser stellen möchten wir uns bei dir bedanken Denis, für deinen Beitrag zur Zug der Liebe Mixtape Reihe und wüschen euch viel Spaß beim Hören und immer daran denken, sharing is caring!!

Wir wollen auch in diesem Jahr wieder gemeinsam ein Zeichen für mehr Nächstenliebe und soziales Engagement setzen.
Um weiterhin ohne Sponsoren arbeiten zu können, benötigen wir dringend deine Unterstützung! Da wir seit 2015 die volle Aufmerksamkeit auf unsere teilnehmenden Vereine und Organisationen richten, passen Sponsoren auch nicht ins Konzept.

Direktspende: Einfach via Paypal an info@zugderliebe.org oder Paypal: Bit.ly/ppzdl spenden, dass gibt mächtig Karma-Punkte :)

Spende für die Liebe!

INTERVIEW

What do you do to get into a creative state?
"Sometimes the machines just inspire me, sometimes I open a bottle of wine."

Where do you draw your inspiration from?
"Situations that I’m finding myself in in, the feelings I have, technology around me."

What do you love most about being an artist?
"Touching peoples hearts man. Seeing happy faces at gigs or getting messages of people that are moved by my music gives me a lot of strength."

How do you stay focussed in a world of constant distraction?
"Just turn off notifications & zero in on the machines. I have a lot of trouble focussing, so eliminating distractions helps me a lot."

Do you have a morning routine?
"Hell no, I’m not a morning person!"

What fascinates you about your art from?
"One guy sitting in his basement can do it all, create an atmosphere & make people move and feel – the ability to convey emotion through a technological intermediary."

What, for you, is the purpose of art?
"Expressing yourself through a medium & let other people feel by coming in contact with your work. Art does not necessarily has to have a function, in contrast to design – a lot of dance music (including mine) is more design than art."

What is sacred to you?
"Staying true to myself, integrity is key. I like the Egyptian afterlife concept of having your heart weighed against a feather."

What is your opinion on success?
"Success is when you look back on the path you treaded & get a warm, fuzzy feeling."

What is your opinion on failure?
"Failure is such a loaded term. The absence of success is not failure & failing a goal you set for yourself is not actually a bad thing. Every „failure“ is something you can learn from and improve."

What would your 16 year old you think about what you’re doing today?
"Since my 16 year old self was already dabbling with Ableton he would be like 'Damn you have all that gear - make more music!'“

What makes you laugh?
"Dogs. Dogs are awesome."

In which ways could the scene improve in the future?
"Right now there’s too much focus on self-marketing via social media & less on creativity and skill. This is in part due to an over-saturation of the market which makes it hard to be the cream rising to the top. I hope that in the future we find a way to honor quality & dedication and focus less on shiny pictures & follower metrics. 
Women are still underrepresented in my scene (especially on the production side) and sexism is still a thing. Hopefully, we can be more welcoming & kind towards dedicated female newcomers and have a more diverse palette of creative output together. 
What also bothers me is the stagnation. E.g., once there is a successful sound, a bunch of copycats swoop in and the market is flooded with „same-ish“, uninspired works. How did we evolve from ten years ago? Right now a lot of the new stuff that is most visible sounds like boring, recycled 90s stuff. Electronic music & especially Techno was once a promise of uncharted sonic territory and possiblity, so why do we always go back to the same 909 Drums and Acid Lines?"

Who will considerably give direction to the scene soon?
"Right now, we’re at a turning point due to the COVID-19 quarantine. After the dust settles I really hope that the underground spirit returns and a lot of new & creative artists emerge and get a chance to be heard. This is an extinction-level event for the clubbing scene, but after a forest fire new life always springs. And I really hope that the younger generation of artists will rise to the occasion and bring a new sonic diversity to the scene."

Favorite release at the moment & of all times?
"At the moment I really dig the first Koelsch Album 1977. 
Favorite release of all times is a hard pick. With Teeth by Nine Inch Nails and Gui Boratto’s Chromophobia have a special place in my heart."

Bio:
TooL8 (toolate) are Sven Kirchner alias Horst Koffer and Max Keck. With their live-sets these two Bergisch guys (residents of BergWacht) are a fixture of BergWacht for a long time and had 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 TooL8. 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.
They are BergWacht-Residents of the first hour since 2008, since Spring 2019 they are Part of the Katzensprung Festival own´s Agency Rooster also.

TooL8 (toolate) besteht  aus Sven Kirchner alias Horst Koffer und Max Keck,  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 TooL8. 
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.
