GENAU #092 - NORMAN NODGE (Ostgut Ton - Berghain / DE) || 16.02.23 by Genau / Genau Recordings / Genau Unlimited published on 2023-02-14T20:34:05Z @norman-nodge occupies a special place in Berlin techno with a sound that is at once forceful, dubby and hypnotic. These days a lawyer by trade, Nodge spent the 90s as a DJ and promoter before becoming a Berghain resident in 2005. Born in East German Leipzig, raised in Brandenburg, Norman got bitten by the techno bug after the wall came down. In 1994 he started to promote several events and launched his career as a DJ. At these parties, he got to know Marcel Fengler and Marcel Dettmann and literally became their mentor for all things techno. Marcel Dettmann eventually pitched him to Berghain’s management and he returned to DJing and became a resident instantaneously. Since then, he plays Berghain once a month, specialising in the almost forgotten art of warming up at the beginning of a night. In 2005 he also started to produce his own tracks. His maturity proved to be very beneficial in terms of his artistic vision, as he made up his mind about what he likes and what not a long time ago already. Unsurprisingly, his outings on Dettmann’s MDR label, as well as his track “Native Rhythm Electric” for Ostgut Ton left a deep impression with headstrong techno lovers. With his dusty funk, static hiss and the rich thump of his kick drums, he managed to get himself recognised as one of techno’s more unique auteurs. Norman Nodge cites Detroit techno (Jeff Mills, Rob Hood, 430 West), Chicago House (Relief, Dance Mania) and Techno (Luke Slater, Peacefrog, Mark Broom) as his most essential influences. Hence, it is not surprising that he fuses the old with the new and the soft with the tough when he plays out. “It is my goal as a DJ to make people dance without walking on trodden paths of recent trends. I want to sensitize dancers for unusual sounds, old and new.” Tracklist: 1) EQD - EQD10 A (EQD) 2) Franz Jäger - Joga Bonito (Malör Records) 3) Pangea - Still Flowing Water (Hessle Audio) 4) Detect Audio - Run Like Hell (Nowhere) 5) Kenji Hina - Laced Up (Emerald) 6) Kaiser - Escaping Scepticism (Seks Tapes) 7) A Thousand Details - Believe In Mass Media (Knotweed Records) 8) Sedvs - Primal Fear (Bare Hands) 9) Kr!z - Nautilus (Token) 10) Oscar Mulero - Noches De Menta (Pole Group) 11) Desroi - If Your Teeth Fall Out You Can Have Mine (Desroi) 12) Confluencia - Perplejo (MORD) 13) Oxygeno - Thirty Against One (Lost Verses) 14) Dimi Angelis - Warp Drive (Angls) 15) Roseen - Torn Apart (Ausgang) 16) Curious Kees - NL-D1U-22-01004 (Tar Hallow) 17) Knox & Hawkins - This Is The Underground (Repetitive Rhythm Research) 18) R.M.K. - Connect (Nechto) Genre Techno Comment by User 719802225 wtf norman 2024-01-07T16:54:53Z Comment by Johan-Sebastian-Rami like song 🍃💜 2023-09-16T23:37:37Z Comment by Sasha Paca nice 2023-08-08T23:57:12Z Comment by slovo #@!! ooh yeah Hammer fettes Brett ich liebe 🤟es 2023-08-02T23:12:05Z Comment by Julian DMZ Track ID please, nice sound and good selection 🫡 2023-07-09T22:21:53Z Comment by Angeldustcore yeshhhh! 2023-05-16T18:58:58Z Comment by Weekendowy Karpiarz insane 2023-05-10T08:44:40Z Comment by Unreadable Abyss Track id please? 2023-05-05T02:23:17Z Comment by Kevko 🥰 2023-04-26T20:07:59Z Comment by claudiospectrum Right selection. 2023-04-16T13:54:39Z Comment by Unreadable Abyss Track id please? 2023-04-14T00:30:48Z Comment by -Troy- Ai ai ai 👨🏻✈️🦸🏻♂️🦸👩✈️ 2023-04-10T13:30:45Z Comment by Polizei on fire 🔥🔥 2023-03-09T12:46:59Z Comment by vsalles boooooom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2023-03-04T09:21:41Z Comment by vsalles eeaaahhh!!!!!!!<<<<<<< 2023-03-04T09:20:53Z Comment by vsalles \O/ 2023-03-04T09:11:27Z Comment by hotɟtraxxx TRACK ?? 2023-02-26T17:04:47Z Comment by Nomad nice one 2023-02-21T15:47:45Z Comment by enysmon 🙌🌏 2023-02-21T14:54:58Z Comment by SpursTechno Nice record :> 2023-02-19T10:35:03Z Comment by 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭 ♥ 2023-02-18T06:40:51Z Comment by Garthy31 Nice. 2023-02-16T17:18:00Z Comment by BLACK HUMANOID 💣🔥🔥🔥🔥 2023-02-16T15:58:45Z Comment by BLACK HUMANOID 🙌 2023-02-16T14:50:07Z Comment by Nabil Hayat Ripping!!!!!! 2023-02-16T13:53:25Z Comment by Nabil Hayat Ripper 2023-02-16T13:50:40Z Comment by Nabil Hayat WOOOOO 2023-02-16T13:44:34Z Comment by Diego RR 🔝🌏🙌🙏 2023-02-16T10:08:18Z Comment by Dr.Cheap 🛸❤️🔥 2023-02-16T10:06:18Z Comment by Diego RR 💪🥵👿 2023-02-16T09:59:34Z
