Sender Berlin is a collective of Berlin DJs and producers that hardly needs any introduction. In 1998, Sender Berlin brought together HendriX, Stassy and Luke. They began as organizers, producers and DJ‘s at the weekly Headquarters Nights happening in Berlin‘s Tresor Club. A short time later Sender Berlin presented their first track on a compilation presented by the Tresor record label. Following the unexpected great success of this release the three became confident in further work together with more young Berlin producers. Their own album, "Spektrum Weltweit", was presented a year later. In addition, Sender Berlin‘s many ideas and different musical interests brought them to start their own label in 1999. Wanting to avoid continually producing the same music but be able to release their work together and in combination with various other artists, the label became known as "unGleich".

Founding member of Lomechanik, The Smoke Cella has the uncanny knack of churning out a diverse range of electronic compositions. After swapping his bass guitar for a brand spanking new laptop, ooh let’s say 7 years ago, he hasn’t looked back since. He found his voice and now combines the two to devastating effect. But his first release on the Lomechanik imprint didn’t implement his own vocal chords but those of rapper Terra in the monster breakbeat fest known as “Detergent”. Featuring as the first track on “No One” (Lomek 001) it received rave reviews in Holland., Germany and Belgium and even appeared on the Gonzo cd “Mind the Gap 48”.
live shows promptly followed throughout Holland & Belgium with VD Inc.. and shortly after the “Donkey Basketballl EP” (Lomek 002) was released sharing duties with Breakcore-meister Apzolut. Which brings us neatly to the release you see before you. Riped, nurtured and saved for this Fingers Ltd. 12” we’re sure you’ll agree he’s come on in leaps & bounds… www.lomechanik.com

This producer from Barcelona is known for his wicked, noisy techno sound. Recorded also for labels like Tresor, Mosquito, Neue Heimatt, and was founding member of the Sativa club in Edinburgh, Scotland. Needs no further introduction. Listening to his music will do.

Call him what you want but by any other way don't call him blind. This visionary from Detroit has brung his unique brand of dance music to the awaiting ears of the world since 1980. A former mobile DJ, Tucker has had his hand in the mechanics of the groups Frequency (Metroplex), Alien FM (4309 West), Sight Beyond Sight (430 West), the ever changing AUX-88 (Direct Beat), and AUXMEN projects (Puzzle Box). The former GM TECH grad has had affiliations with Anthony 'Shake' Shakir and Juan Atkins (performing live as Model 500) in 1995 along side Mad Mike Banks of UR), and is currently an inductee of Detroit Historical Museum's: 'Techno: Detroit's gift to the world exibit'.
Mr. Keith Tucker felt the need to explore the realms of techno, electro, house and experimental music from his classical back ground and technical training as a way to perceive his emotions and future. Keith Tucker is a man in a continuous life time mission to convey his own sound and write his own signature on techno city's history. www.optic-universe.com/

Hardly a veteran, but with all the maturity of a stalwart, VD Inc. knows how to smelt massive beats & disturbing melodies into one wholesome bar of electronic goodness. VD can turn his head to reflective melodies though, showing a flipside to the madness, and proving that he’s not just a one trick pony. But when he goes loud he goes loud and turns a dancefloor into a throbbing mass of unrevelled proportions. Just listen to his monster on Lomek 001 “Let me introduce myself” which does exactly what it says on the tin and shows off his mastery in beat production.
Together with The Smoke Cella he has travelled the Bene(lux) gathering many followers on the way. A couple of months ago he showed maturity by putting together three tracks of an extremely diverse nature on “Lomek 004”, one of those being “Guess who’s back” a massive anthem which brings together all the finest elements of Breakcore, Hiphop & Electronica. Let’s call it Zip Hop.
