The Skill Warriorz and Pitchy & Scratchy took one of the most iconic tunes to ever come out of Techno Germany and gave it a little twist, transporting it into the 21st century. Check out the original classic after the jump.
Germany has a rich techno tradition, just as it has a rich club culture (which at the moment is endangered by greedy capitalist interests, but that’s another story). In one of those clubs – the Douala to be specific – Marten Hørger secured a residency before he was even legally allowed to stay out at night. The kid was described by none other than techno legend Westbam as “the new Wunderkind of bass music”. And guess what: it is Marten Hørger who handpicked his five favorite free downloads to share them with the world on Crispy Crust Records.
There aren’t many terms more annoying than EDM. Seriously, what does it actually mean? Not that we’re big fans of categorizing music anyways, but in times where genres like deep rai, vegan straight edge and zeuhl exist, don’t you think EDM is kind of unspecific? We’re glad to present you with a track that knows exactly what it is for a change: techno.
Enjoy this Leather Gloves remix by YB? (the smart guy in the picture), who is one half of the French producer duo Monsieur Monsieur. The original Leather Gloves was crafted by Dimeuhduzen & Erick Solo, who will release their new EP Black Entities on January 21st via the German techno label voxnox Records.
