Jonas Xenon | Live at Tresor - Apr. 14 2023

Techno artist from the Netherlands 🇳🇱.

ACHARD030 is the moniker of Philipp Achard, DJ and producer based in Berlin. Defined by a unique blend of driving Techno, energetic Hardgroove & hypnotic Trance ACHARD030 combines the old-school character with modern sounds and rhythms. Instead of classifying music into sub-genres, he prefers to let the music speak for itself through its individuality.

Philipp was born in Berlin in 1997 and grew up in Brandenburg, where he discovered his passion for deejaying at the early age of 16. Short time later, he played his first gigs at local clubs and got involved in organizing events. When he finished school, his thirst for new inspiration logically meant moving back to Berlin. Guided by passion and devotion, he experienced what it really takes to be a DJ. He graduated as a sound designer and started to produce his own music. As DJ Rephil (Philipps psychedelic project) he gained a lot experience in clubs and festivals and has regularly been playing at the "Psychedelic Theatre" events as a resident for years. 

Some notable bookings include the venues Magdalena, Humboldthain, Kili, Kosmonaut, Rosis ,Laut , Mensch Meier, Bucht, KitKat, Wurzelfestival, Kepotopia, or Simsalaboom..

Technohead since my first Heartbeat
Since then I've been in love with the bass pounding on my chest, slowly getting stronger as I get closer to the rave. A feeling that I will never let go of. For a few hours I forgot my worries about losing myself in the flashing lights of the clubs and moving to the beat in the direction of unconsciousness

i hope i can give you that feelings with my work

I love peak time & melodic techno to DJ. Anyone who thinks about techno and knows what's good will feel my set in the club. I'm telling you. Sets I record vary because with this account I would like to give everyone the best experience of techno so I'll give you what you love most. Driving bass, wild basslines and sometimes hard techno. Thanks for listening to the sets & Enjoy :)

At midnight, on March 13th 1991, a basement door opened at Leipziger Strasse 126, Berlin. Through this door, many passed, on their way to defining new terrains in electronic music. There they found a dance floor in the vaults of a closed-down department store, with a unique sound bound to dense fog, building night after night a history that was also a vision of the future. 

This history has seen in Jeff Mills’ first sets on three turntables, Underground Resistance's first live appearances in Europe, grandiose Tresor Park parties, to various chapters of the Loveparade with Sven Väth in the 90s and since then countless generation-spanning parties. These moments represent the highlights of infinite personal clubbing experiences. It is the manifestation of the Berlin spirit, emerging from its considerable strife. This history is not without its complications - from temporary closure by the authorities and several raids in the early years to closure and demolition of the old location in 2005. What followed was years of wandering in exile and, finally, resurrection in the new home in Kraftwerk Berlin.

These stories, conversations and shared experiences within our walls forge a resilience that drives towards a shared ideal, the Tresor sound: community, resistance, and the world to come. This was observed in the newly re-unified German youth, who danced and celebrated together from the club’s inception, and into the present day through ongoing community work in Detroit. 

Tresor Records was founded in the same year and began to serve as a platform for exporting the new sounds associated with Tresor all around the world. Emergent musicians from Michigan, such as Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance and Drexciya, were pivotal in shaping these early years. Their visits to Berlin would kick-start dialogue between the youth movement in Europe and these musicians. This story is one of friendship and community-building, inextricably linked with cities like Detroit, Birmingham or Edinburgh, where like-minded friends built something truly special, where revelatory rhythms soundtrack decaying industry in corrupted metropoles. 

Tresor Records has been the fertile soil for dozens upon dozens of creative minds, from the very luminaries of the scene who developed electronic music over the last three decades through to contemporary protagonists who are currently defining the sound of the future -  A more than 300 strong catalogue displays an unmistakable identity - the Tresor spirit.

To those that have danced before, and to those that will dance in the future: the light at the end of the long Tresor tunnel is a signal. A flicker amidst the fog. This is our future. This is our place.
