Berlin and Detroit are probably the most important cities when it comes to techno history.
Both metropolises are full of influences, energy and flow. The german capital of techno as well as its american counterpart are responsible for the incredible development of a worldwide music movement and its culture.
Pierre Deutschmann, the Berlin dj producer and remixartist is part of the german techno scene since the beginning. You can call him a real "primitive rock" of techno.
He dedicated his new album to Berlin and Detroit. These cities and the music from out there affected him during the last 20 years.
The Berlin original is always busy in the studio. As label head of XLR1507, producer and remixer for lots of labels like Kiddaz, Bush or BluFin.
Especially "BluFIn" can be described as his home base, so there was no doubt that his album "Betroit" will be released on that Cologne based label.
The Album contains 15 unique and brand new tracks. The whole Betroit project was generated by Pierre during the last 6 months. Deutschmann has a very high musical standard. He experimented a lot with analogue gear and as a real perfectionist, it was really hard to make a cut til end. He worked and reworked on the tracks until the last minute. But now, he finished it and it can be described as a real techno masterpiece.
Betroit shows and reflects Pierre Deutschmann from several sides. He collected countless of influences and experiences during the last decades, and he assimilated these in the album.
The mix of classic and "oldschool" elements paired with modern and timeless techno tunes makes Betroit real special. It describes Pierre Deutschmann as a Dj and producer.
The album tracks are perfect dj tools but the tracks are also working independently. It s serious techno for having fun with it. Doesn´t matter if it s before, after or in the club.
Pierre Deutschmann`s Betroit will be released after the summer break, around september, on CD and digital.
There will be a single release prior the album including the outstanding track "Emphasis". Pierre organized three very strong remixer for this number: DJ Emerson, Dubspeeka and Drumcomplex & Roel Salemink.
Watch out and let you catch by the spirit of Betroit!
Now we will follow with the Remixes on Part 1 we present the skills of : Thorsten Kanzler, Sweet N Candy and last but not least Robin Hirte ... Let's go
Dimitri Kechagias review: Techno is all about relentless build up of massive drum beats, heavy basslines and dark and sinister atmosphere. The 3 brand new mixes on Pierre Deutschmann`s Betroit album tracks will satisfy the techno purists for sure. When I checked them out for the first time unconsciously the phrase that came to my mind is "Good Old school techno is back with vengeance". If the mixture and influences from other genres such as house is not your cup of tea then those remixes will drive your crowd wild for sure. 3 techno bangers that move on the dark, dirty, greedy underground sound that is threatening for the masses, unconventional and totally marvellous sexy irresistable techno. Highly recommended. Love iT
