Hinz & Ruhmhardt is the long-nosed and beardless Techno outfit of Berlin based music producer Stephan Hinz and Cologned based music aficionado and Techno connaisseur Philipp Ruhmhardt. Together they're harder and stronger than morning wood and always in quest of finding the right combination of bad ass bass and really bad ass bass. Putting in a little slice of harmony and a nice little melodic something and voilà mesdames et messieurs, say heya to Hinz & Ruhmhardt. Doch: Hinz & Ruhmhardt come out of the gate full speed on their first EP with Doch. A grinding and relentless kick drum, hi-hat and snare combo that no doubt hypnotizes even the most relenting soul. Those merits alone can command a dance floor but, combined with a single organ line that is equal parts villainous, psychedelic, and beautiful while being perfectly constructed with a masters knowledge in the art of tension and suspense, they have conceived a magnum opus of grand proportions. An aural field fusing the finest elements of both heaven and hell. Panther: This journey gets straight to the point with the title alone. Just as approaching prey covered by the darkness of night, the snarling synth slowly lurks closer while the loop of hypnotic tones and pulsing drums keep the mark focused and unwitting of its true motive. When it finally shows its teeth, freedom is long gone. Panther has sunk in and forgets any intention of surrender. Wave the white flag. It's an exquisite feeling to be eaten alive. "We play the tunes already for a few weeks in each of our sets and they are always highlights. So for us it was a must releasing them on our label." Pan-Pot
