Heiko Rides The Wave
Text by Nick Lawrence (HigherFrequency)
Kanzleramt label owner Heiko Laux is readying to release his fifth artist album. The project entitled “Waves” features nine tracks of Detroit inspired techno from this influential German producer. Despite his long history of co-producing music with artist like Anthony Rother for this new album Heiko has only included one collaborative effort in the form of ‘Shared Wave’ which was created alongside pioneer of the Detroit sound in the Netherlands, Steve Rachard.
Laux released his debut album, “Liquidism”, on Kanzleramt back in 1998 despite having already started the label four years earlier. “Offshore Funk” was his last album to drop in 2003 and since that time the former Omen club resident released a retrospective disc of his 10 years of productions which he called “Spread”.
“Waves” will be released by Kanzleramt on October 27.
