Klubnacht Presents Marcel Fengler @ The Underground Kennedys 10/12/10

Geraldinho

Berghain resident Marcel Fengler (OstGut Ton) makes his highly anticipated Irish debut on FRIDAY the 10th of DECEMBER at Dublin 2's salubrious UNDERGROUND venue at KENNEDY'S on Westland Row. Marcel brings his stripped back, vital sound to Ireland for the first time, support on the night comes in the shape of virtuoso producer The Parallel making a rare live appearance, and Klubnachts Fitz. An evening of forward thinking, raw, deep, techno not to be missed.

"seeing both DETTMANN and KLOCK recently, this set confirmed what i already felt: FENGLER is the best of the bunch." MNML SSGS

Marcel Fengler’s musical influences present themselves double tracked. His early teenager years are

stamped by Hip Hop from crews like NWA, Gang Starr and A Tribe called Quest, who have been his
undisputed heroes. Even today, Fengler spins some Hip Hop, but only in private. His interest in electronic
music on the other hand has been inspired by continuous experiences in Berlin based techno clubs like
E-Werk in the early 90s. The heavy, progressive synth- and acid sounds of this era still wield some
magical power on Fengler today.
„As the musical range today is vaster than ever, it is really important to me in which context I’m playing
out my records. That’s why I love traditional labels like Planet E, M-Plant and Internal and artists like Ron
Trent, Kenny Larkin, Kevin Saunderson, and Chez Damier as much as I like contemporary artists like
Sleeeparchive or Lessismore.“
Since the mid 90s, Marcel played at „Club im Park“, a youth club in Fürstenwalde, where he later
launched a party series called „SC 93“ together with Marcel Dettmann. In 1997 he started to play at
Berlin’s Tresor among other clubs and when Berghain opened in 2004, he became a resident on our big
techno floor.
„It is important to me that music tells kind of a story using varied styles from all eras. That’s why I favour
to build my sets up, then down again. It has to be varied and it has to snake through the night in waves.“
In 2007 Marcel has started to produce his own music as well. His tracks and remixes are directly
influenced by the heavy Techno sound of the Berghain. His complex drum sounds and his generally

rough sound design connect seamlessly to his often more than five hour long DJ sets.

Irish producer The Parallel makes his Klubnacht debut after a year in which his releases have ended up in the record bags of techno heavyweights such as Laurent Garnier (F Comm/Innervisions): “This is a rare record,
absolutely stunning, this four-tracker really stands out. Only for the
Detroit techno music lovers ... this is very special… brilliant!”

Dave Clarke (White Noise): “Like the self titled track very much.”

"The Parallel" played on Whitenoise 22/11 and 06/12

Surgeon (Dynamic Tension): “I like the tracks from best to least in
this order - A1, B1, A2, B2. Will definitely give it a spin next time
I play.”

Luke Slater (Ostgut): “Cool new Komisch release! Absolutely love the
first track, will be played this weekend at Berghain.”

Kirk de Giorgio (ART) “Really good stuff! Abyss is similar in feel to
my forthcoming Planet E track 'Membrane'. ‘Mind Reverse’ has a classic
early Hood feel to it, whilst the other two are more deep,
neo-Detroit. It's promising material!”

Slam (Soma): “The Parallel is my favourite here.”

Ben Sims (Theory): “Abyss is definitely my fave, it's got that classic
old Sterac sound to it, good all round EP.”

Efdemin (Dial): “Thank you for this music! I liked everything, I like
the direction it takes. The Parallel seems to be a very talented
producer.”

The Black Dog (Dust Science) “We have one or two of the tracks in our DJ sets.”

Alex Smoke (Hum & Haw): “Yeah, really like it, charted it too, proper
quality techno.”

Peter Van Hoesen (Time 2 Express); “I will be playing out Abyss this
weekend in London, curious to see what happens. that's really a killer
tune. There's real talent at work here.”

Serge (Clone): “Full support from Clone of course!”

Cio D´Or (Prologue/Time to Express): “A great mixture between dubbed
and deep techno that will rock the floors for sure. The way that
Parallel combined atmosphere with more functional grooves is making
the record very special and futuristic!”

Ryan Elliot (Spectral): “Thanks for this, I really like it. Just in
time for my set at Berghain this Sunday morning! Like them all, but
loving the title track.”

Samuli Kemppi (Prologue): “Thanks for the link. This is brilliant.
Will play on the radio show.”

James Ruskin (Blueprint / Tresor)
"I really like Abyss, I'll definitely be playing that out
Nanotech is also really cool. A good package all round!"

Matt Chester (11th Hour)
It's a lovely release, I really like the crisp metallic sound
they have on these tracks. I think Nanotech is my favourite - reminds
me a lot of one of the UR tracks on Acid Rain, and the chords are
beautiful.

Vince Watson (Bio / Delsin)
"Nanotech is the one here....the others are nice enough, but Nanotech
stands out, should be the 1st track."
