Micha Klang first discovered electronic music in the early 1990's while playing in a punk band. Soon Micha and his friends found themselves quickly gravitating towards DJ mixes and the parties going on in their hometown of Nuremberg, Germany. Strongly influenced by the sounds of such artists as the legendary Sven Vaeth, he quit playing guitar, bought turntables, and immersed himself in the world of DJing. His first gigs in 1997 helped support his new record buying habits, and more importantly pushed him into new musical arenas. A year later, Klang began promoting his own events, christened by the Mothership parties. It wasn't long before Mothership became one of the leading club nights in Nuremberg. Other clubs such as Tresor, Airport, Stammheim, and U60311 took notice and put him behind their decks.In the next few years, Micha brought Mothership to many of the best festivals in Europe, and promoted an own as well: Summership. It takes place once a year in an old castle attended by thousands! He added more club nights to his roster (Harpune, Harry Klein, Centrum), and the success of his promotion opened avenues to production. In 2003 Micha Klang, along with friends Joachim Spallek and DJ Sebrok released their first EP on Bash Music.
Klang founded his label Paso Music with Spallek, Sebrok, and Marc Miroir in 2004. He released all together two EPs on this imprint. Last winter he did a remix for Surveillance Music.
In 2006 Micha left the Paso guys and launched another Label named Glueckskind Schallplatten together with Juergen Kirsch. A cool label for cool minimal and lovely Techno-Tunes. The first release came out in June 2007. A great EP created by Cologne´s Gabriel Ananda. Someone Else (incl. Marek Hemmann Remix), Christian Quast and Marek Hemmann will follow.
Micha Klang will release several EP´s on Labels like i220, On Records and Glueckskind Schallplatten from the beginning of 2007 onwards. He's also producing an EP in Co-op with Athens based Artist Mihalis Safras. Micha also worked on a remix for Naples based label Globox.
Beside of producing fresh minimal Techno, Micha Klang loves playing long sets of minimal, textured tech-house combined with crunchy, crispy minimal techno beats. Micha lays this mixture thick to rock dancefloors worldwide!
