German DJ Thomas Kukula founded General Base around 1990. After several years of Dj'ing in Germany he decided to not only play music, but also to make and produce it. General Base released the singles "Apache" and "Poison" in 1993.
Also that year was the release of his first album "First".
My introduction to General Base was via In Trance (General Base Mix), one of his harder offerings at the time. His sounds are very electronic and likes to use a small vocal sample on each track with a strong and busy bassline. Some of his tracks have some really commercial and boring mixes, then there are others that are just great. His First album has some interesting pieces on it but the best mixes are found on his singles. His first track, translating to My God, It's Full Of Stars shows his early German techno heritage in its sound. He was also the guy behind the classic rave anthem THK - France.
