Level Records is a German label freshly launched by Daniel Fritschi in Düsseldorf. After starting mixing drum & bass records in middle 90s, this DJ has turned progressively into minimal techno sound, particularly by organizing parties in an underground club called "ego" until 2000 and then in collaboration with Andy Vaz (Background, Soundvariation). For the first release of his label (and his first appearance on vinyl), Daniel Fritschi has been joined by talented producers like Oliver Hacke (Traum, Trapez, Background), his friend Andy Vaz and Stephan Schwander aka Rhythm_Maker (aka Antonelli electr., Repeat Orchestra...). With such great names, it could only result an excellent EP: the four tracks bring on their own way a perfectly produced, soft, fine and subtle minimal techno. Klasse & superb! No doubt, Level Records' next releases will have to be checked carefully. Check audio samples on Level Records web site & get it!
