Berlin School style Electronic Music Event Gasometer Improvised Concert Oberhausen
Held on October 28th, 2006. This is the full movie and some preparations of the day before. The goal of this meeting was to do an improvised electronic music concert like those of the Tangerine Dream in the seventies by some fans.
The Gasometer in Oberhausen is an unique location. The Oberhausen gasometer, the largest disc-type gas holder in Europe, is an industrial monument located in Oberhausen, Germany. It was constructed between 1927 and 1929. It has a long reverb because of its height 117.5 m (385 ft) and its diameter of 67.6 m (222 ft).
The three guys who performed this unique concert are:
Hajo Liese
Till Kopper
René van der Wouden
Interview with electronic pop artist Andreas Tilliander
Attack Magazine has a nice interview out with Swedish electronic pop artist and producer Andreas Tilliander
Andreas Tilliander’s latest album sees him focus his attentions on Roland’s classic x0x series. We spoke to him to find out how the project came about and discover how he avoids techno cliches.
Attack: Tell us about the roots of the project. Did you decide in advance to make an album based entirely on the classic Roland gear or was it an organic process?
Andreas Tilliander: The funny thing is that I never had an album or concept in mind. I recorded the first couple of tracks just as a joke for my friends. People kept telling me I was crazy collecting all those Roland boxes. I had the entire series, but I also had several of some machines, like the 303 especially.
I wanted to show them that it’s possible to use several 303s in one track. You just have to have some imagination and good will. I filmed it just to show them that I didn’t overdub it or anything like that.

A couple of fresh electronic music video releases
“Deep End” is a solid piece of musical dark chocolate: bitter and brooding” – http://www.muzikdizcovery.com/
“Fusing dance and rock in a manner often only employed by knob-twirlers like Justice or Deadmau5, Future Relative manages to emulate much of what those contemporaries do best while perfecting a sound readymade for today’s burgeoning festival culture.” – Speak Into My Goodeye
“Deep End is a tastefully dark track with multiple genre bending elements ranging from rock, electronic, and new wave. Just how we like it. Think Nine Inch Nails spiked with a hit of 808 State and a dash of Orbital. ” – http://rawthentix.com/
“Brooklyn’s Future Relative are one act you can mark as ‘keep an eye on’ in 2013. If their new track ‘Deep End’ is anything to go by, they’re going to be offering us some of the greatest electronic/pop jams of the year. Borderline industrial and 100% ready for the floor” – It’s My Kind Of Scene
“Deep End is a brooding, synthy electro track, with wispy vocals and a punchy dance backbeat.” – Baeble Music
