Autodeep

Even though the name Autodeep might not sound too familiar yet, the two faces behind the new project are no rookies at all. Hagen Pfennigstorf and Ulli Hammann both already have more than 10 years of experience in DJing, producing, event promotion and label work mostly from running one of Germany's most influential hiphop labels from 2000 – 2007.

Their rediscovered love for house music that is reflected in the Autodeep project is still quite young though. With musical roots in Germany's early 90' rave & club scene they never really lost their interest in electronic dance music but it wasn't until late 2007 that they launched their critically acclaimed Love Hertz label and started to play regular gigs and clubnights at Hannover's best house & techno clubnights and parties.

In 2008 they initially released more techno-oriented stuff on Love Hertz under their Haterboy & Van Hagen moniker and ganined instant support by the likes of Timo Mass, Tomcraft, Toni Rios, Anderson Noise, D-Nox & Beckers, Tom Pooks and Remute. In 2010 the Love Hertz label is going strong with a high quality output in the vein of deep minimalistic house and techno supported by international top players like Luciano, SIS, Len Faki, John Acquaviva, Magda and many many more.

In mid 2009 they kicked off their new Autodeep project to push their very own vision of modern house end tech sounds with a classic twist. The Autodeep sound ranges from slower, dubby and slightly discoey explorations to floor-friendly underground house and tech grooves. The first releases in 2009 on international quality labels like Galaktika Rec., Progcity Deep Trax, Nulogic and Grouper already gained support by the likes of Brendon Moeller, Noir, Nic Faciulli, Afrilounge, Soul Minority, Peter Kruder, Brother's Vibe, Ian Pooley, Oliver Klein, André Lodemann, Jeff Samuel, Ivan Smagghe, David Durango, Matt Star and Someone Else.

2010 sees even more hot vinyl and digital releases ranging from Disco to Techno on labels like Wild Trackin', Centric Music, 2600 Records and Etoka Shapes plus high profile remix jobs for the latest Mark Henning and Deepchild releases on the legendary german Trapez imprint aswell as a rework of Jay Tripwire's upcoming release on US label Dutchie Music. Meanwhile Ulli also maintains a secret solo project focussing on straight Dub Techno. His first release on an obscure german vinyl only-label instantly made it to the dj charts of heavyweights like Berghain resident Marcel Dettmann, Manuel Tur, Dario Zenker and many more! Their DJ-Sets cover a wide range of music from classic deep house and disco grooves all the way to peak time tech and minimal house burners all wrapped up in a stunning mixing performance that utilises Turntables as well as the loopy and effect-heavy delights of Traktor technology. So better be prepared for some hot funk from these guys straight outta Germany!
