E-De-Cologne

One of the important artists of the early 90s hardcoretechno-scene is E De-Cologne. The man behind, Patric Krämer, released many tunes on various labels like DHR, Mono Tone, Shockwave Recordings or Mille Plateaux under various artist names.
His styles are from Hardcore over Breakcore to Noise and similar sounds but more calmer tunes too.
He is a part of the DHR-act EC8OR and he is one part of The Puppetmasterz.
But for most music lovers he is known under his aka E De-Cologne because he appears on the Thunderdome and Terrordrome compilation-releases which became very famous with the years.
Today most of the artists appearing there are important in the eyes of the electronic music scene so some of the original 12inches the tracks were taken from are now very very expensive.
Unforgotten are the dolp of E De-Cologne 'Die Langspielplatte', the remix of Ilsa Gold's 'Silke', the track 'Ein bisschen Frieden', '...Die Extase Versprechen', '5 Years On Gabba' and the funny track 'I Believe In The Power Of ...'. This tracks were special and radical at that era but Kraemer did not repeat this sound and decided to enter a new direction going into breakcore and other sounds.
Doubtless E De-Cologne is a part of the harder sound of techno history and again and again I like to listen to this aggressive, mostly 4/4 tuned bass/sample-mayhems.
