Jens Brachvogel & Tilo Ciesla aka Studio 54, aka Dole & Kom is probably the most
productive producer duo of German underground House Music. They did Disco House
with heavy 808 & 909 beats in the mid 90s already – long before it stormed the German
dance charts. They've remixed legends like Green Velvet, Black Box or Mateo & Matos or
even pope heroes like Marc Almond. Their tunes came out on top tier labels like Nervous,
Relief Records, Force Tracks and of course local Formaldehyd and BCC Music from
Berlin.
Their Studio 54 project started in 1997 and quickly became their most popular moniker.
Due to copyright restrictions they had to rename it „Studio 45", a name they're still using
today. On their „Vol. 2" record in 1997 they were inspired by Disco and Boogie tunes of the
70s and early 80s that indeed were popular at the famous New York night club.
What makes their tunes unique to this day is their hypnotizing, druggy approach to the
original tunes. You never get a cheap, commercial copy, you'll get a mesmerizing mind trip
back to the glory days of Disco, seasoned with the best classic drum machines got in
them.[info sheet from distr.]
