Pneuma was born during the lockdown.
I felt something unfamiliar inside of me was screaming to get out.
It made me feel claustrophobic to suppress and keep it on hold. So I allowed the music to take the first step and I took the next. It almost felt like the tracks were writing themselves and I was just there to record. But obviously it comes from a place inside my soul.

Pneuma 1 came to life first. Those broken beats flew right out of me and the dark atmosphere followed on top.
On the journey Pneuma 2 and 3 started breathing as well and eventually I created and finished all three versions at the same time.
These are some dark, aggressive pieces but if you listen carefully you hear hope and optimism between the beats.

I have had the name and idea for this Stimulateur release and series for years but it wasn’t until now I felt the time and music was right. This new series will be my personal playground with no specific concepts and musical genres.
Following my heart and ears. Being present. Being Noir.


These tracks were created from a lot of live sessions and not so much from programming. I felt that gave my “man vs machine” interaction more nerve and real dynamics. V1 is emotional and dark. Gritty and raw.
A true reflection of how I like my music in 2020.
Each track has personal depth for me and feels like the perfect fit for my first edition of the Stimulateur series.

After a couple of great remixes for Noir Music Robert S (PT) delivers his first solo release
on the label and I am proud to present these three amazing originals and two remixes courtesy of Drumcell and The Advent.

Robert and I have been compiling this release over several months and put together what we felt was a really strong 3-tracker. We have been testing the tracks in the clubs around the world making sure we had compiled the perfect release and we are both super happy with the end-result.

On top of that we reached out to Drumcell and The Advent for remixes and they both delivered fantastic takes on the “Exoplanets” track.

And I am equally proud to have the 2 remixers I admire Yan Cook and Moteka onboard for the more “underground” remixes of the tracks.

Celebrating his latest release ‘Damage Control’, Noir shares five tips in music production.

Head over to Change Underground to read full interview

It’s been a year since I released originals and since then I also gave my studio a big make-over.

I have gone back to being more analog/hardware based in my production methods again and I guess in some ways you can hear that in this release.
For “Damage Control” I chose 3 tracks I felt had different vibes to them.

Psychosis carries a familiar Noir Music sound with a very ”in your face” beat and musical message.
Damage Control is a more groovy track build around modular synths and a filthy bass that cuts through the soundscape.
Autophagy is a fast-paced monster with percussive intensity and FM synthesis filtering in and out through the entire journey.

The tracks have of course been road-tested and believe me; even the smaller details changed a lot over time to fit my personal taste 100%
After a long process I am finally happy with the tracks and ready to present “Damage Control”.

I am super proud to present the part 1 of "Noir Remixed" with fantastic remixes from some of my favorite producers.
Johannes Heil, Cardao, Robert S (PT), Wisna, Electric Rescue and DSTRD.

You probably know some of the names, some you might not have heard of; but the fact is...... You should really have all of them on your radar cause they all create incredible music.

I chose the remixers strictly from my own personal taste in music and producers I felt suited my tracks the most.

I honestly feel all the remixes here are unique and they are also an indicator of the direction Noir Music is taking this summer/fall.

Dive in and find your favorite or play them all.

It’s been almost 7 years since Ramiro Lopez had a productions released on Noir Music.
Since then he has evolved a lot as an artist and producer.
We have missed him on the label and extremely happy to announce his return with the excellent 2-tracker.

People that follow me knows I have been supporting Ramiro’s music a lot and even his label “Odd Recordings” stands out as one of the best techno labels the past couple of years in my ears. I love the minimal yet hard-hitting approach coming from Ramiro and this release is a great example of that sound.

“On Your Face” is build around the powerful vocals done by talented Juliet Fox and once again Ramiro proves the “less is more” still holds up in modern techno today. The hard-hitting beats and simple synth-lines compliments the vocal to perfection and makes Juliet’s vocals stand out in the center of the production.
“Venom” is just as powerful with its dark “what is this place” male vocal sitting on top of relentless beats and industrial elements.
This track builds into quite epic 90s rave chords before skilfully dropping back to the sparse and stomping vibes.
Another edgy slice of techno from one of my favorite producers at the moment.

It’s been a while since we released a V/A on Noir Music and I only ever compile them whenever I feel I have 5-6 tracks that stand out.

Dark Stars Volume 4 has been 6 months in the making and yes….. I know I am picky with the music I sign. I hear that on an almost daily basis.
But even though I could pick music from many different artists it still took me months of compiling, testing the music in clubs and at festivals and then putting together the tracks I felt stood out and complimented each other.

The great thing about V/A’s is that you get the chance to put together a release from artists with completely different sounds and ideas.
Although the sound of Dark Stars Volume 4 is quite minimal sounding overall, it still reflects musicality and great in-depth productions by skillful and experienced artists.

Another great thing about Volume 4 is that these are all artists who make their debut on Noir Music.
I truly love playing every single track from this release and I enjoy watching the crowds reactions around the globe.

I feel no need to get deeper into detail about the specific tracks, as the music will speak for itself.
Hit play and pick your favorite or do as me. Add all of them to your playlist.

Excited to bring you the first debut release on Noir Music in 2019.

We are welcoming Rudosa to the family with this powerfull, raw in your face release.
I have been following Rudosa for quite some time and played a lot of his productions because of the solid output.

This release dips right back into the oldschool rave sound with acidstomper Equanimity and title track Technical Difficulties which is pure 90s warehouse love. On Euphonious Rudosa blends a little more of the mordern techno sound into his relentless beats.
I love his non-complicated and full on sound. It grabs me right away and keeps me locked in.

All three tracks have been firm favourites in my sets the past 3 months and I am really happy to have Rudosa onboard for the label.
Hit play and find out if these are among your new favourite tracks.

It’s with great honour that I can now welcome Colombian Mario Ochoa to the Noir Music family.
Been supporting his music for years and we can now finally present his debut release “Spacewalk” on the label.

After some months back and forth and heavy road-testing I feel Mario has created a fantastic 2-tracker to be very proud of.
His productions are on point and the heavy basslines on these bangers are gonna leave the crowds ecstatic.
I’ve had nothing but great reactions from testing these tracks and numerous of people asking for track-titles in clubs and on socials.

Rounding off a great 2018 with another release on Noir Music that makes me a very proud label-owner.
I can’t even pick my favourite between the two tracks, can you ?

Over the past two years Thomas Schumacher and I have build an amazing friendship and released incredible music by Thomas on Noir Music.
I believe 100% in his unique productions and he believe 100% in my A&R skills to take the music to new levels.
I am honored to have yet another set of incredible tracks ready for a release on Noir Music and instead of me describing the music I asked Thomas to put words on the release himself this time.

________

”It’s been an emotional and rewarding process to record these two tracks for Noir. This release got me digging deep into my Acid and Rave Techno consciousness: The early 90s and it’s illegal Warehouse raves in abandoned dockyards in the North of Germany. Memories of collective euphoria on the dance floor burnt into my mind and soul. It was my goal to capture the original spirit, the-everything-goes, over-the-top, raw-as-fuck attitude that defined that time of my life.”
