Wahnsinn

Biografía
- The first contact Wahnsinn had with music would be a very long time ago. But if you ask him what artists he likes the most in his younger years, his answer would be the king of pop Michael Jackson or a piano genius like Wim Mertens. It’s no use to say..In 2005, he started to spin vinyl records. Just for fun, and to develop his technical skills as a DJ. House, retro, minimal were the styles that made the entrance to the ears of Wahnsinn. Mixing and performing as a DJ continued like this for him until 2008. From then on, until now-ish, a pause encountered the short DJ-career of him. The reason was clear: playing music just wasn’t enough, he needed to evolve into an artist that was more complete. In other words, this meant he was focusing on making his own stuff. Producing music, while being in search of the style he wanted to excel in. Being a producer is a work that is in constant development, and that same fact applied to Wahnsinn. Today, the style that he produces and plays is techno. While he discovered the bits of past techno gods, and the new talents that appear in to this world, he felt a huge attraction to this genre. This kind of music has been around for so many years, and the godfathers of techno are still here and performing everywhere in the world. Wahnsinn just wants to be a part of this movement, which is rich of so many influences and people, and obviously, he wants to leave his trademark to the people. He’s got many assets as a performer. Playing with vinyl or CDJ’s is a part of his skill set, but nowadays, performing digitally is his preference. Keeping creativity in mind, and maxing out the set of tools that are available results in a perfect synergy of madness and music. After seeing a performance of Wahnsinn, one will remember the energy and the passion that he had put into his mix. Reflecting utter madness to the people is not a result of his performance, it’s a goal. Wahnsinn is the German translation of madness. Take madness together with music, and you’ll get techno.
