An innovator in the truest sense, having begun his mixing career while still a teenager, Hell has moved through punk and new wave to electro and hasn't stopped since. He has been DJing around the world for ever it seems and has produced some of Techno's most memorable tracks & owns one of the most important & influential record labels ever, International Deejay Gigolos. Gigolo is more or less the birthplace of modern electro, and has launched the careers of many artists such as Fisherspooner, Miss Kittin & The Hacker, Tiga, David Caretta, Vitalic, Zombie Nation, & Crossover, to name a few.... Hell returns to Detroit for the first time in 5 years for a very exclusive appearance, This is going to be big.
DJ Hell has balanced Detroit minimalism and Chicago acid-house as well as more spacious German trance and hardcore. Beginning his mixing career while still a teenager, Hell moved through punk and new wave to electro, house and hip-hop by the mid-'80s. His DJing gradually led to the start of his production career, and one of his first singles "My Definition of House Music" became a large club hit when reissued by Belgium's R&S Records in 1992. He moved to Berlin to work with Hardwax Records during 1993-94, and also spent time in New York before moving back to his native Munich. Besides releasing his album debut Geteert und Gefedert on Disko B in 1994, DJ Hell recorded a volume in the Studio !K7 mix series X-Mix. His second full-length, Munich Machine, also appeared on Disko B -- though credited simply to Hell. Besides continuing to DJ around the world, he also ran the International Deejay Gigolos label, which released tracks by Jeff Mills, Christopher Just and David Carretta, among others. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide (artistdirect.com)
