schranzmachine Posted November 28 Author Report Share Posted November 28 Jackhamma aka James Ritchie was born on 26th of december in 1979 in Münster, Germany.He already had a preference to electronic music as early as the end of the eighties. It was at the age of ten when he discoverd his love for this music. At the beginning he was listening to a wide choice of different styles.In 1996 he visited the legendary “Cosmic Club†in Münster (today known as “Fusion Clubâ€) for the first time. Since then he went to different clubs in Germany and England. In the meantime he and a few mates started a dj-project in school in which they had the opportunity to practise in mixing records.In early 2000 he focused on visiting the “Fusion Club†in Münster where he met Heiko Peisker formerly known as Junior Pushix. Inspired by the hard underground-techno he played James finally bought his own turntables and mixer in 2001. Nearly at the same time he met HardtraX and they started producing together.Furthermore they have performend in several locations in Germany as a live-act called “HardtraX vs. Jackhammaâ€.At the end of 2003 they decided to start with their own label “Dark Force Recordingsâ€. Its first record “Evil Frequencies†(DFR001) was released in december 2003 and reflects what the label is standing for:hard-banging, uncompromising, mind-blasting underground-techno. German techno-DJ and producer HardtraX aka Rudi Holzgreve was born in West Germany in 1981. He discovered his love for electronic underground music at the age of eleven before he made his first experiencies in producing techno music in 1997. At that time, he was using Amiga computers to produce various tracks in different styles of music from techno, over deep house, acid, tech-house, trance, ambient, jungle and hardcore. Then, after a two-years-break he focussed on producing hard underground techno tunes and occasionally composing hardcore tracks. In 2001 he met Jackhamma and in 2002 they started producing together and have been performing live on several locations in Germany as “HardtraX vs. Jackhammaâ€. After having released some tracks and remixes on different labels (Plug'n'Play Rec., Distorted Rec., Tekk-Tribe), HardtraX teamed up with Jackhamma to found their label “Dark Force Recordings†in 2003 as a platform for their numerous hard, dark and straight-forward techno-tracks. Their first record on Dark Force Recordings named â€Evil Frequencies†reflect their hard-hitting, yet atmospheric, twisted and kicking technostyle. Future releases will also be used to promote other artists and new talents in order to show the complexity and diversity of their preferred styles of techno.
