Few words about Marcel Heese...
Marcel Heese was born (1983) and grew up it a small town near Berlin. Techno hit him pretty late when he listened to the sets of Loveparade 2000. Short after that he began to listen to & tape weekly radio shows. Although he was already listening to so-called underground stuff the commercial end of Techno was dominant. Within the next 2 years the commercial stuff was more and more left behind.
In 2002 during a six months apprenticeship in Hamburg he went to his first "real" Techno party at Phonodrome Club with Cisco Ferreira aka The Advent at the decks. He was fascinated by the power of that sound he had only listened at home so far. During that time he bought his first record: Sven V?th - Fire (which is already sold again). But it took six more months until he finally visited the temple of Techno, Tresor Club. It was the 12th club birthday with Scan 7 live and Surgeon spinning. This legendary night infected him with the Birmingham sound.
In summer 2003 he bought his first turntables and began to spend all his money on records. At first a lot of easy accessible tool techno besides some more bangin records from Birmingham. But that changed pretty soon and he was and more interested in deeper sounds and a bit more complex tracks. During the next few years he discovered a lot of different stuff like Detroit, Chicago, Acid House, the Warp Posse, Dub Techno, Ambient, Noise, Industrial, Breakcore and Dubstep.
He finally started Dj-ing in 2006 and after 9 months of practicing he had his first gig at Ruderclub Berlin in April 2007. More gigs at Tresor, Subversiv, Kiki Blofeld (all Berlin) and Sfinks (Sopot, Poland) followed. In April 2008 he joined the Tresor Headquarters team becoming a resident at the mother of all Techno clubs.
His favourite artists/labels nowadays are: Downwards, Counterbalance, Axis, Warp, Tresor, Token, Transmat, FXHE, Basic Channel / Maurizio, Mojuba, Tectonic, Redshape, Bitstream, Robert Hood, Planetary Assault Systems, Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being, Drexciya, Terrence Dixon, Counterpart, Deepchord, Lerosa, Theo Parrish, Sleeparchive, Marcel Dettmann.
Although his focus nowadays is more on Detroit Techno and influenced sounds the Birmingham sound is still one of his favourites. A set can range from 110 bpm Deep House to 145 bpm mid-90s Techno. Recently his sound has slowed down some bpm and he focusses a bit more on the groove. Still liking good old bangin' Techno with soul.

Few words about Fromm...
Born in Zagreb, Croatia in 1981, Fromm has always shown a keen interest in the Arts. Introduced to electronic music in the late '90s, he immediately became interested in doing something of his own. Soon afterward, he enrolled in the Zagreb film school and is now working as a professional film and tv editor. Listening to a wide range of music styles from earliest electronica to today, it's interesting to see him translate those filmmaking skills to music.
