TOBIAS BECKER has risen as one of the key members of Cologne’s music community whether fitting the role as label owner, DJ, producer or event promoter, Tobias remains a critical component of the techno/house community today. From his early days working in the KOMPAKT record store, to the launch of his PLATZHIRSCH imprint that came to international prominence with the release of one of the past decade’s biggest techno hits “Doppelwhipper” by Gabriel Ananda, Tobias continues to keep his ear to the ground and has amassed a catalogue of modern house and techno tunes from the likes of MARK BROOM, ALEX CORTEX, JASON EMSLEY, DAZE MAXIM and of course his own production work.
As Tobias so often humbly puts the spotlight on his peers, we’re proud to offer on KOMPAKT.FM this EXCLUSIVE DJ mix he aptly has titled “Lonesome Hero”. He surprises us all by omitting any tracks from his label, however pulls together a wealth of rare, special moments in music that span a vast distance of techno and house music history in momentous stride and sway. All mixed live with the help of good old fashioned vinyl!
