Includes an unmixed bonus CD: 2 CDs for the price of one! Joining the ranks of Dave Clarke, DJ Hell, Joris Voorn, Steve Bug, Shinedoe, Adam Beyer, Technasia, and Deetron who have all been firm favorites at Belgium's illustrious techno mecca, Fuse, Anthony Rother presents a live mix to add some German techno spice to the series, taking us on a journey through the new stripped-down sounds of techno. For over 17 years, Anthony Rother has been working, playing, living and representing electro and techno. With his club label Datapunk, he has been transforming the aesthetics of electro into today's music for several years now. Some extraordinary singles, like productions for Sven Väth's Cocoon label, and Rother's fifth studio album Popkiller prove the timelessness of his sound. As the head of Datapunk and Stahl, Rother has been taking his production skills from the dancefloor to more experimental realms and back again, as he develops his DJ skills using a laptop, mixer and controller. With his first mix for Fuse, he tackles the minimally-edged dubs of Wolfgang Voigt's Studio 1, the unmistakable sound of Mad Mike/UR, the deep, dream-like grooves of Ricardo Tobar, Florian Senfter's (aka Zombie Nation) John Starlight alter ego and Pig & Dan's chugging minimalism, while taking it all back to the highly-polished electro stylings of Frank Kusserow's remix of La Rez's "Wo Kommen Wir Her." Other artists include: Boys Noize, Leke Da Loco, John Kelvin & Darmon D, Utku Dalmaz, Fetish &Me, Freakslum, Rother vs. Telekraft, Tony Rohr & Alexi Delano, and Baustein.
