Biography of Selffish

THINNER HISTORY

In summer of 1998 the swedish guy Thomas Jaldemark decided to start a netlabel dedicated to minimal techno, driven by the idea to create a platform for releasing own works and tracks from his friends. Thomas was quite close to the PC demomusic- scene, and he announced 'Thinner' releases on various demoscene webboards, mailinglists and on certain channels on ircnet.

The organizers of 'Thinner', Thomas Jaldemark and Sebastian Redenz, share a vision to create a nonprofit, 'educational' webproject dealing with dubtechno, static minimalism, urban electronica, other new forms of techno & plain 4/4 techno. They are highly motivated in creating a sophisticated and highquality mp3netlabel dealing with such music. Thomas was already running a techno netlabel called 'Thinner' so we decided to set a new profile for it. The third generation of 'Thinner' will split from its demoscene roots and promote itself to the interested electronica audience out there on the internet and make lots of new contacts. For more info about the purpose and about the organizers you can look in our Info section.

As our first release we give you a splitep with four very good tracks from 4 different artists. Pheek (CAN), van der Rohe (US), Thomas Jaldemark (SWE) and Digitalverein (DE) will give you an idea what kind of music 'Thinner' will release. Look in the releases section for reviews, more info and download links.

The first 'Thinner' releases were very liked, and due to that lots of people became interested in releasing on 'Thinner'. Thomas had lots of tracks incoming from various artists like Hakan Samuelsson, Mty, Cemik, Patrik B, Tommi Malinen and Dr. Vanskapt, and most of them became released. Though 'Thinner' grew up quite fast Thomas always ran the office alone and organized everything by himself. The peak was 'Thinner' having 6 members. After just 1 year 'Thinner' had 35 ep releases, from minimal techno over electro to detroit techno.

During late summer 1999 Thomas got amazed by other streams in electronic music and stopped running the techno-orientated 'Thinner'. He began to compose ambient and idm-music for other netlabels. Some of the 'Thinner' musicians became professional producers and left 'Thinner' for vinyl purpose.

Another group was formed called 'Abnormal Music', ran by friends of Thomas, so he himself fully concentrated on this label. But quite after some time the heads of 'Abnormal Music' stopped their internet activities, after almost 70 releases in module and mp3 format 'Abnormal Music' closed. Thomas thought about opening 'Thinner' again and so he did. Though all of the former releases remained 'out of stock' and are from nowhere to download anymore.

The resurrection of 'Thinner' took place on June 1st 2000 with it's 36th release - 'Forest' by Teori. On the second generation of 'Thinner' Thomas had a new concept - quality then quantity. He wanted to have more 'decent' music to be released on 'Thinner' - tracks with more original ideas and professional programming. Though the amount of releases decreased compared to original 'Thinner' due to two main reasons - the reputated technomusicians in the demoscene began to work with professional softsynths and produced mp3s - a format which didn't suit in 'Thinner' at this time. The other 'plain' reason was just that less good technomusic was composed.

After it's 50th module release, a 'Thinner' showcase, the 2nd generation of 'Thinner' will stop being a modulelabel and apply itself to the leading format for musicfiles - mp3. The third 'Thinner' generation is born.

In early 2001 Thomas met the german guy Sebastian Redenz who introduced him to the deeper grounds of minimal techno music. Thomas reached the point Sebastian already passed - the hard/detroit techno music lacked lots of innovation and became very boring lately. So with the help of Sebastian he made himself familiar with dubtechno, static minimalism, urban electronica and other new streams of digital music and found a new audiophonic home. Since Sebastian has organizing talents aswell, both heads share the vision to create a nonprofit, 'educational' webproject dealing with such, 'electronica' most generally called music. They merged in their theories and decided to set a new profile for the label 'Thinner'. New paths professionality are taken - the third generation of 'Thinner' will split from its demoscene roots and promote itself to the interested electronica audience out there in the internet and make lots of new contacts.

By today, the head of 'Thinner' is Sebastian Redenz, meanwhile based in Mannheim/Germany. I'm still highly motivated in leading a sophisticated mp3label and vinyllabel dealing with various electronic music, such as dub influenced techno and house, urban electronica or soulful four-to-the-floor beats and with the help of our numerous friends out there on the net we aim for a higher state of consciousness.
