Biography of HardtraX
German techno-DJ and producer HardtraX aka Rudi Holzgreve was born in West Germany in 1981. He discovered his love for electronic underground music at the age of eleven before he made his first experiencies in producing techno music in 1997. At that time, he was using Amiga computers to produce various tracks in different styles of music from techno, over deep house, acid, tech-house, trance, ambient, jungle and hardcore. Then, after a two-years-break he focussed on producing hard underground techno tunes and occasionally composing hardcore tracks. In 2001 he met Jackhamma and in 2002 they started producing together and have been performing live on several locations in Germany as “HardtraX vs. Jackhamma”. After having released some tracks and remixes on different labels (Plug'n'Play Rec., Distorted Rec., Tekk-Tribe), HardtraX teamed up with Jackhamma to found their label “Dark Force Recordings” in 2003 as a platform for their numerous hard, dark and straight-forward techno-tracks. Their first record on Dark Force Recordings named ”Evil Frequencies” reflect their hard-hitting, yet atmospheric, twisted and kicking technostyle. Future releases will also be used to promote other artists and new talents in order to show the complexity and diversity of their preferred styles of techno.

Biography of Jackhamma
Jackhamma aka James Ritchie was born on 26th December, 1979 in Münster, Germany. James' preference for electronic music began as early as the late Eighties. To begin with this included a wide choice of different electronic styles. After a visit to Münster's legendary Cosmic Club (today, the Fusion Club) in 1996, James began frequenting a variety of different clubs in Germany and England. During this period, James gained his first experiences mixing records with school-friends. In early 2000, as visits to the Fusion Club became more frequent, he met DJ Heiko Peisker - formerly 'Junior Pushix'. Inspired by Peisker's hard underground-techno, James finally procured his own turntables and mixer in 2001. At around the same time, James met HardtraX. Together, they began to produce their own music. Within a short time, the two began performing at several locations in Germany under the heading HardtraX vs. Jackhamma. By the end of 2003 they started their own label Dark Force Recordings. The label's first record Evil Frequencies (DFR001) was released in December 2003. The record's hard-hitting, uncompromising, underground sound, foreshadowed perfectly what was yet to come.
