zeitgeist, he prefers to deal in hypnotic soundscapes that really take you on a trip.

Donato seems to continuously challenge himself on a creative level: whatever method he uses, though, he is always likely to permeate your cerebral cortex and rewire it in fascinating and compelling new ways.

Lerato Khathi aka Lakuti grew up in Soweto, South Africa . She took a deep interest in music from a very young age, inspired by her mother’s impressive collection of Soul & Funk. Her grandfather also played a significant part in further nurturing her musical interest by schooling her in the art of Jazz. She inherited his jazz collection when he passed away and to this date has held onto every piece of vinyl from this collection. The biggest influence & inspiration was to come however with the first batch of Chicago house records .
Her first adventure onto a musical path came when she convinced an empty 100 capacity theatre in a then arty Yeoville – a suburb in Johannesburg, to let her use the space as a small club in the early 90′s, whilst embarking on a Law Degree. Planet Hendon was born which saw some of the best local talent play. Around the same period, she met Alan Abrahams aka Portable/Bodycode and collaborated with him on a few music projects.

DJ and producer Marcel Dettmann is recognised as one of the most influential proponents of contemporary Techno. Widely associated with iconic places – Berlin, Berghain and Hard Wax – Dettmann stays true to his roots by consistently innovating his interpretation of electronic music, integrating art with the scene. Raised in the former GDR in a small town near Berlin, Dettmann had already begun to develop his passion for electronic music in his youth days. Bands like Depeche Mode, The Cure and Front 242, as well as Post-Punk and Industrial, count as his earliest influences, long before he discovered his affinity for Techno. Since his hometown lacked a record store specialising in electronic music, Dettmann started selling vinyl from his own home between 1995 and 1998. He purchased records from various distributers, Hard Wax amongst others, both to resell to his friends and to cement the foundation for his own considerable collection. Like many of his friends, the mid-90s saw Dettmann frequenting Berlin's nightlife. This included club institutions E-Werk and Tresor where the resident DJs of that time aroused his passion for the Chicago and Detroit influenced sound. In 1999, after many (including self-organised) parties, his turning point came; Dettmann began to work as a resident DJ at Ostgut, Berghain’s predecessor. Shortly thereafter upon receiving a job offer from Hard Wax, he finally moved to Berlin. His apprenticeship as a vinyl buyer and seller as well as DJ, granted him an extensive depth of musical knowledge and intuition.

Marco Shuttle has always achieved a lot with a little, and that is the singular aesthetic that stands him apart. His cinematic techno sounds are unusually organic: they build pressure in subtle ways and his meticulous grooves never fail to take listeners on a trip to somewhere new and exciting. As a result of this, he has become a firm favourite amongst the techno cognoscenti and has released on some of the most revered labels of the day, from famed New York club The Bunker’s new label to Peter Van Hoesen’s untouchable Time To Express via Clone SOS and his regular home, Eerie Records and lately on fellow Italians Dozzy’s and Neel’s new label, Spazio Disponibile
Marco Shuttle
Italian born but Berlin based. What ties his creative work together is a focus on abstract yet organic texture and the same thing defines his tightly woven DJ sets from Berghain to Labyrinth in Japan. His eclectic cerebral sound takes cues from experimental jazz and musique concrete as much as it does from acid house and Detroit techno.
Early breakout records like his ‘The Vox Attitude’ have been followed up with great outings on Clone, Time To Express, a collaboration with compatriot and fellow producer and friend Donato Dozzy as Anxur on Eerie and his first LP Visione again on Eerie Records, his very own well-formed label, and prove Marco Shuttle to be a uniquely minded techno troubadour.

Unobtrusively his music finds its way into acclaimed record collections worldwide.
The ever modest Matthijs Verschuure grew up on the countryside of the Netherlands, amidst polder landscapes, green fields and surrounded by the sea. It didn’t take long for the Dutchman to find his residence in the industrial harbour town of Rotterdam, where he further developed and crafted his propulsing, hypnotizing and cosmic sound.
After a handful of releases, Mattheis established himself in a niche part of the scene by teaming up with the Clone-affiliated “Nous’klaer Audio” in early 2013. The succes of his Isms EP and LS/1001 EP gave him the “Nous’klaer Audio Wonderboy” status, which he further expanded with the release of his mini-album “Luminous Frames”, signed by London duo “Walls” on their Kompakt imprint “Ecstatic Recordings”.
Mattheis takes his studio-ethos onto the stage, translating his delicate and honest arpeggio-driven work into comprehensive live- and djsets. The end of 2015 marks yet another milestone in the form of a return to Nous’klaer Audio with the release of his first full length album “Kindred Phenomena”.
