Night & Day on October 23 brings together several distinct histories of techno and electro.
Frankfurt’s Anthony Rother presents his Hybrid set. Active since the late 1980s, Rother established himself internationally with Sex With The Machines and Simulationszeitalter, developing an unmistakable electro language around machine rhythms, vocoders and technology. His extensive catalogue includes his Psi49Net and Datapunk labels alongside collaborations with Karl Bartos, Sven Väth and DJ Hell.
Tokyo’s Ken Ishii was among the first Japanese techno producers to establish a major international profile, beginning with releases for R&S Records in the early 1990s and continuing through more than three decades of production and touring.
Mike Parker brings an equally deep history in American techno. Active since the mid-1990s, he founded Geophone in 1998 and developed a highly recognizable strain of hypnotic techno across releases for Tresor, Semantica, Prologue and Spazio Disponibile. New York’s KYRUH and Mr. Murray complete the extended session.

Upon moving to Detroit in 2017, he made an impression at the storied venue TV Lounge becoming one of the club’s youngest residents, taken under the wing of head honcho Mister Joshooa. His party and label Snack Time, started as a happy hour in 2018 serving home cooked food and featuring local legends on each weekly lineup.

“Anthony Rother was described as an influential visionary, an electro pioneer and one of electronic music’s most prolific producers.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Anthony Rother was described as an influential visionary, an electro pioneer and one of electronic music’s most prolific producers. For more than two decades Rother aggregated a vast musical canon that reflects his unique career as a sound researcher exploring the aesthetics far beyond the boundaries of electro, techno and pop music. Starting his recording career in the late ‘80s, the Offenbach-based producer established himself in Germany’s electronic music scene with his first two releases, "Sex With The Machines" (1997) and "Simulationszeitalter" (2000). In 1998, he founded his label Psi49Net, allowing him to keep his artistic independence and showcase his vision of electro music that cultivated a unique storytelling approach, guided by dystopian future visions on societal changes due to technological progress. The vocoder-driven vocals and the dark dystopian synth sound with machine-like beats have become Rother’s trademarks, even before he found international recognition as a science-fiction avant-gardist with the virtual electro-pop project "Little Computer People" (2001) and his 3rd solo LP "Hacker" (2002). In 2004, Rother created the Datapunk imprint to evolve an immediate, more song-orientated language that used simple melodies and even autobiographic anecdotes collected on "Popkiller." Perceived as one of his most venturous endeavors, yet his sonic shift had a decisive effect on many artists' careers: The Hacker, Boys Noise and Terence Fixmer published on Datapunk in its early days. While some of the experimental ambient recordings for Pete Namlook’s infamous label Fax +49-69/450464 reflects Rother’s prolific output, he also worked and co-produced with several prominent artists such as from former Kraftwerk member Karl Bartos, Sven Väth and DJ Hell. After its success, Datapunk turned into an enlarging business which devoured both time and creativity to make music. In 2013, Rother decided to let the project rest and took a break that he used to move his studio while only producing music for his HYBRID-Sets. Through his self-contemplative retreat, he eventually rediscovered the artistic instincts that brought him back to his roots; both in terms of his renewed independence as well as how he channels creativity as a producer. In late 2017, Rother resurfaced with an EP on Danny Daze’s Omnidisc and contributed the track "Technic Electric" to Fabric 96 mix by DVS1. Last year, Rother returned to his Psi49Net label with a new album "3L3C7RO COMMANDO" that transports a clear message: Anthony Rother not only lives in and through his pure electro music, he still has something to say – here and now. The past represents the future! In April 2019, Rother will release two 12’’ on DVS1’s Mistress Recordings followed by another EP as well as a conceptual LP for Psi49Net in fall. Moreover, Rother will drop a 12-inch on Radio Slave’s Rekids offshoot Stranger In The Night.Their RA profile lists BPitch, DFA Records, Datapunk, Kanzleramt and 2 more.Recently at public records, H0L0 · often with Julia Govor, YASMEENAH, James Bangura, none of them here on Friday

the whole biography
For 20 plus years, he has perfected a unique interpretation of techno, instantly recognisable to contemporary audiences, which has earned him a legendary global status inspiring the likes of Donato Dozzy and many of his peers for decades now. Mike first stepped onto the scene in ‘97 with two fiery EP’s that would set the tone for his future musical endeavours. The following year would see the birth of his label Geophone which became the outlet for his long-running series of 12” records and debut album which all played a pivotal role in establishing his sonic persona. Hard work doesn’t go unnoticed and after earning his stripes in the US Parker’s productions would cross the Atlantic and find themselves on some of Europe’s most established labels. Over the past ten years, the likes of Tresor, Semantica and Spazio Disponibile have all played host to a number of his EP’s while his second studio album found a home with the mighty Prologue back in 2013 to much acclaim. In 2019 he will relight the fire with his Geophone imprint and continue to leave his mark on techno by doing so. As a DJ, Parker rose through the mid-1990s as a mainstay in the US’s emerging warehouse party scene. His hypnotic, abstract and hard-hitting approach to performing earned him a highly respected reputation and further increased his devoted following. His wealth of experience in the booth has been acquired with regular performances across North America, Europe and Asia making Parker a well-seasoned underground veteran. From his humble beginnings to the present-day Mike Parker has amassed an impressive list of credentials paving his own lane with a unique style that breathes innovation yet honours the true values of techno. And after 20 years in the game, Mike is still a dominant figure that continues to carve his own niche in the ever-expanding world of electronic music.Their RA profile lists Spectral Sound, Hidden Recordings, Tresor, Mote-Evolver and 6 more.Recently at public records, Signal, Nowadays · often with Kudeki, Torsion, RMNA, none of them here on Friday
