Показать описание
Toni Rios first gained experience for his career as an internationally active DJ and producer in 1989 at the age of 18 in Frankfurt’s legendary Omen. In 1994 he released on Harthouse and Eye Q, two of the most important labels for electronic music, founded by Frankfurt veteran Sven Väth. That’s how Toni Rios quickly became a household name in the house and techno scene and his tracks could be found in many record cases. In the year 2000, Toni took part in launching Cocoon Recordings. He also joined the Cocoon Booking agency and became a regular at Cocoon events. One year later, it is the year 2001, he calls to life his label Danza Electronica and later on goes on an album tour that many people remember fondly until today. Since Cocoon Club opened its doors in the year 2004, Toni has been one of the residents and still plays on a regular basis. Toni’s style has always been in step with the times – acid house, trance and hard techno in the 90s or today’s modern tech, Spanish temperament included! He travels on a regular basis around the globe: from Miami via Sao Paulo to Bankok and Tokyo, to name only a few of the cities he has played, and of course he tours every weekend Europe’s hippest clubs. He’s also a regular at all the big festivals like Love Parade (Berlin), Mayday (Dortmund), I Love Techno (Belgien) or Dance Valley (Amsterdam), where he plays for thousands of techno fans. On top of his life as a DJ, Toni has been active as a producer since the middle of the 90s and runs his record and digital label Soap. 15 years ago, this label was the stepping stone for him and other young producers. Now it’s his turn to offer a platform for newcomers. Since 2009 he’s released young artists from New York, Tel Aviv or Ukraine - welcome to the digital age! And just like Toni received support by other DJs about 20 years ago, he’s now helping other newcomers to get ahead in the music business. On the occasion of his 20th anniversary as a DJ in 2009, Toni went on a world tour and released the corresponding album. The tour brought him to countries like Holland, Spain or Mexico, where Toni could once more prove his ability to get the audience rocking with all the right tracks at all the right moments. 2010 was another year of happenings: Toni released the track „Into your eyes“ on BluFin and with it again made his way into many DJ sets. With his long-time companion André Walter he did a remix for Ramon Zenker & Harada, also on BluFin. He launched his first Soap digital release and the first Soap show cases took place and sent Toni and other Soap artists across Germany, amongst others to Cocoon Club. His personal booking highlights were his gigs at Sonne Mond und Sterne Festival and at the „Volar“ in Hong Kong. For 2011, in addition to numerous bookings, Toni is planning to do some long wished-for remixes of previous Soap relases.
Frank Lorber was born in 1975 in Gießen, Germany, but you could say he's Frankfurt-bred and definitely has been an integral part of the Frankfurt Techno scene. At the tender age of 16 he discovered his passion for electronic music and promised his mother he would start an apprenticeship if only she bought him two record players and a mixer. However, this apprenticeship became a thing of the past when he started to dedicate himself entirely to music...
He first gained experience in Gießen's in-club "Gonzo" but was soon drawn to Frankfurt and in 1992 obtained a residency in the infamous "Omen", where he played the saturday nights with DJ Dag. In 1993 he had his first date abroad and after that, he moved steadily to the top. Since then, his name has been among the line-ups of big festivals like I Love Techno, Mysteryland, Love Familiy Park or Sonne Mond Sterne, and he's a well known character in the international DJ scene.
Frank has also been quite active as a producer: over the years he has worked with artists like Pascal Feos, Anthony Rother, Johannes Heil, Jörg Henze and Toni Rios, turning out a number of tracks and his solo album "Jailhouse Rocker" (Cocoon). With friend and partner Toni Rios he founded the label Attention in 1997 and in 2003 his own label Nummer Schallplatten. Frank is quite an old-timer with Cocoon: he's been in the roster since the very beginning.
