Biography of Neil Landstrumm

Landstrummīs body of work spans from 1994-1998. He has recorded for some of the most influential labels in techno including Tresor, peacefrog, Scandinavia, Mosquito and Sonic Groove building up an extensive discography. His own imprint, Scandinavia, now enjoys worldwide recognition for being one of the few labels still innovating in the field of techno and design. During 1994 in Edinburgh, Scotland both friendships and working relationships were formed between a group of artists provided the infrastructure of what was to unfold.

The up front and heavy Sativa club provided the focus of creative attention between Neil, Tobias Schmidt, Shandy and Dave Tarrida providing them with the opportunity to develop their unique Live performance and Dj-ing skills. During this forming period the distinctive 'Landstrumm Peacefrog sound' was created which debuted on four Eps and one LP in 1995. Strong ceonnections and EP releases were also made on Christian Vogelīs Mosquito label in Brighton and Adam-Xīs Sonic Grooove label in NYC .

In 1996 the assocation began between Scandinavia and Tresor with the first LP release marking a strict departure from the more Chicago based Peacefrog style. 'Understanding Disinformation' tested the new Bass Techno sound citing both influences from classic Detroit techno and the more abstract Sheffield Bleep techno. Metallic soundscapes, sub-bass and stark beats set the bleep-tone of the three Lps to follow.

'Bedrooms & Cities', a narrative of the worldwide DJ excursions, displayed a more atonal song structured style again building on the UK bleep movement from the early 1990īs. Bass lines, low and punding combined with swinging raw DMX rhythms, researched sounds, electro thips and zaps gave Landstrumm his best selling work to date pushing the distinctive Scandinavia logo into new domains.

Landstrumm after being granted a USO1 artist visa relocated the label and studio to Brooklyn, NY in August 1997 in order to experience the inner city urban culture.

Comment: Not sure about the dj through it, happy belated 30th btw, but yeah, an excellent set by Neil, great stuff ;) I'd love to be able to see him one time live, it definately sounds like an experience, with his 'sound' and all that. The mix is spot on and no comments apart from good ones, though towards the end I was getting a little bored, it's a great sound, and I love this sort of techno, but there needs to be more variety, subtle, but abit more variety. It starts off really well and the breaks are great, a nice edition to the Landstrumm, bit like on the 'Bedrooms & Cities' album, but then it just gets too into the thump thump beats, and in this day and age it gets monotonous, especially after what's happened in the other sub categories of dance music. I still enjoyed it though and it's a nice introduction to the 'world of Neil Landstrumm' for all to hear, thanks ;)
