TRACKLISTING

A Terence Fixmer - Aktion Mekanik The me



INFO
It's safe to say that Terence Fixmer's track "Aktion Mekanik Theme", originally released on Music Man in 2003, was as m uch a landmark release for techno as the whole Aktion Mekanik compilation was fo r EBM as a genre. "As an artist who's been pushing EBM sounds into the modernity of Techno it was a logical step to do the compilation back then," Terence says. "I wanted to show my influences as a Techno artist, as Detroit sounds weren't m y roots at all, but classics by Front 242, Fad Gadget, Nitzer Ebb, Crash Course In Science or Snowy Red.

I met Music Man's Stefaan Vandenberghe thro ugh Emmanuel Top in '93, and of course I was a fan of his label. Music Man was o bviously the perfect place for this EBM project: they are from Belgium, they kne w the bands, many of them were proud of this sound. So I discussed my idea of pu tting out a compilation with some classic and landmark tracks from the EBM direc tion with Stefaan, and it got made."

While Ostgut Ton now releases t hree new versions of "Aktion Mekanik Theme" by Kobosil, Norman Nodge & Marcel De ttmann, Music Man now reissues the original version on red 12" vinyl.
