Scenic Enigmatic Techno with Heiko Laux on Klockworks #17

1890x1200q=90_Heiko-Laux_9077_9078_1890x1200_100_1_1_tWith the upcoming Klockworks #17 release under his belt, the talented Berlin producer Heiko Laux showcases his deep and intriguing techno sound on Ben Klock’s renowned imprint. Heiko is the mastermind behind the forward-thinking Kanzleramt label. Since establishing the label in 1994, Heiko continues to make waves in electronic music with an exploration of diverse genres and complex audio environments.

The three-track KW17 press includes two originals and an acid edit. The a-side track Savannah is ambient and progressive, building form and functionality with Heiko’s signature style. Also on the a-side, the acid edit of Dry Me interweaves a subtly exquisite acid synth line, giving that crisp kick to the minimal tenor. Ben Klock and Marcel Dettmann threw down Heiko’s original Dry Me track during their back-to-back at Awakenings Festival this past year, adding an extra dimension to their scenic and pumping two-hour set. The track is deeper than thou minimal techno with some lush atmospheric elements prescribed for good measure.

Klockworks #17 will be available starting January 26. Pre-order the digital and vinyl formats here.
