this is kind of ironic for me but, i thought tekno was the most boring music ever when i started out. it took me years to fully comprehend the simplicity/complexity of pure tekno. maybe the stuff i like now was not around then, or i just came in the scene at a bad time, but i saw mark play trance in minnesota for about 100 kids,

and he actually played tekno for the first hour. that was the first time i had ever enjoyed tekno. then at further a couple of years back, he had dropped a record in the mud that i had picked up, and it was patrik skoog's native 01. the combination of watching mark play the most insane set i had ever heard in the craziest storm, and going home and hearing this record that i had gotten all the mud out of the grooves just to play, honestly changed my entire outlook on electronic music altogether. ever since i have been so incredibley into tekno, that i ended up starting several labels and have been really lucky to have worked with both of the people that first made me love this music so much. so thanks to mark n chrissi first and foremost, and to p. skoog / headroom and the rest of the international tekno community. and mark/ chrissi, lowrider suites vol.3 is still coming out, but i might put it out on my new label instead, it will sell a more copies if i do. lookout for boss 001, it will be out before the first of the year and it features: p. skoog vs the web of deception. if any one wants to hear an advance copy, i will find some way to post it (our website is under construction).
