Matthias Tanzmann grew up in Leipzig, Germany during the time the Berlin Wall came down. His early years saw massive political upheaval around him and so the rawness of electronic music easily took hold of him while still at school. During his studies he began various ventures into production and started his infamous Moon Harbour record label twelve years ago, long before Berlin was an epicenter for house and techno music. His second imprint Cargo Edition was started six years later around the time he was asked to be a resident at Circo Loco DC10 Ibiza, a title he still retains. A true professional in a world of excess, Tanzmann remains one of the pioneers of his sound yesterday, today and tomorrow. "fabric is one of the greatest clubs with one of the best sound systems in the world. Playing there to me is always a pleasure and honour and compiling a CD even more. In my mix I wanted to show music that touches me right now, and at the same time won t be so popular that it will be out of fashion after this year. I would like the CD to be enjoyable for many years to come." Matthias Tanzmann fabric 65: Matthias Tanzmann is a chunky and mesmerizing episode of the series. Featuring classics (Silicone Soul Right On, Right On Tanzmann remix) alongside current cuts (Maya Jane Coles Not Listening ) entwined together in his own unique style, the mix is an insight into a longstanding hero of the house music community. It retains a solid drive throughout from the steady pace of Monkey Mafia s deep and melodic Sources From The Past to the mischievous groove of Butt from Jeff Moore & Jamie Lie A Kwie. Gathering speed as the story unfolds into the hypnotic and sultry tones of Alexis Cabrera s Everything before the percussive explosion of Just Be s Rain Come Down makes a climactic end.
