Sankeys - Disco Electronica’s 3rd Birthday - Win Tickets!

They present a German star DJ who has travelled the world over and back again, rocking dancefloors left, right and centre, and one is also pretty handy when it comes to remixes too…

Timo Maas has always been one to attain perfection in his music. It’s no surprise to see that whatever he works on -- his own productions, his remixes, his DJ sets and his Four: Twenty Recordings label -- his love of music always motivates him to push himself and push the boundaries of expectation to deliver greater and more challenging material on every attempt. Self-styled purveyor of 'percussive wet funk'. Producer and remixer of more than 85 productions in three years, including classics like Orinoko's 'Mama Konda' (Top 20 UK & US club charts). Timo Maas is a man with a mission, a man sick of the "cheesy shit" that clogs up the clubs and the charts, stifling creativity: "I like the idea of building up a unique sound, of working with different sounds to create something new and fresh. I suppose I may always be the underdog but at least I won't have sold out like some other German acts.” He is all set to detonate at Disco Electronica’s 3rd birthday at Sankeys.

Timo’s supported by Manchester legends OD Musique, presenting their own take on electronica in its house-iest and electr0-iest forms.  

And upstairs in Spektrum, Fingerprint present Glimpse. 2009 has been a fantastic year so far for Christopher Spero aka Glimspe. The last few months have seen him release The 'Drifting E.P. on Carl Craig’s Planet E Label, a new E.P. on Cadenza, a release on his own Glimpse Recordings imprint with Kompkat and a release on Get Physicals sister label Kindisch Glimpse’s records have been regular fixtures in the boxes of Ricardo Villalobos, Marco Carola, Luciano, Loco Dice, Francois K, Ritchie Hawtin, Magda, Jeff Mills, Troy Pierce, Konrad Black, Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Derrick May and Adam Beyer amongst many others. Many of the tracks have been signed to numerous compilations including Richie Hawtin’s Minus imprint.
