It's hard to analyse an era whilst living in it, but it's easy to recognise when someone has captured its Zeitgeist. Based in Berlin, Klangkuenstler has proven through his productions the ability to capture the musical essence of this generation: a shapeshifting mood between rage, melancholy, and abundant hope.

From early on he started to blend a modern vision of industrial electronica with techno, and raising hell on the dance floor every time he stepped into the DJ booth. We know him well enough to understand that this is what it's all about: a fire that is not seen but deeply felt.
