"Mittel zum Zweck" is a record label based in Germany mainly focusing on minimal, tech-house and techno music. The label, whose name can be translated as "a means to an end", was founded by Aconite, Cert-8 and Dominik Schwarz (2) in 2010. These three DJs and producers initially started this project in order to release their own tracks. Since then the label is steadily enhancing and establishing itself as a reliable source of danceable club music.
