Helmut Geier grew up as a fan of punk, later on became hip hop dj/party promoter in Munich, and having access to import stores he got into techno and house when early releases arrived..
Of course all this had influence on his sets, which were noticed by some people and Hell was invited to Love Parade in Berlin in 92.. he completed that set with one-sided white label, which was actually his own track “My definition of house”.. belgian R&S label boss Renaat Vandepapeliere (you will see that name in biographies of many producers from that time, thanx to her many tracks today considered to be classics were released) offered him record deal on the spot..

What else huh.. besides already mentioned Geteert & Gefedert (1994), check his X-Mix: Wildstyle from 1995.. in 1997 or 98 he released another album, Munich Machine..
+check Bartz’s label Kurbel for more of his work (some together with Richard)

not forgetting Hell’s own International Deejay Gigolos, with Arnold Schwarzeneger in his early days as logo.. there was an interview with Hell some years back in an austrian magazine (cant really recall name now, I picked it up in some shop in Wienna), where they asked him “why Arnold”..and he said like “Arnold is the boss, I’m just following his commands” :lol:

don’t know the exact time when he entered this scene, you will have to check some biography of him, but I guess its somewhere 90-91..
now, when mentioned Bartz (I just love his work as Acid Scout), he approached Disco B with his work in 92, so yeah, Hell had to hit scene prior to 92 hmmm..

and Mills together with friend released that The Final Cut in '89 (quite inspiring record for later hardcore producers).. cant really tell who was the first..
