(Techno, Acid, House, Electro) Hardfloor: 94 releases - 1991 - 2015, MP3 (tracks), VBR 160-320 kbps

[b]Hardfloor - техно-дуэт из Германии, состоящий из Оливера Бондзо и Рамона Зенкера. Их самым популярным треком считается "Acperience 1",
 на многих компиляциях называющийся просто "Acperience".
[/b]Их особый acid house звучание они получают путем виртуозных экспериментов и манипуляций с синтезаторами Roland TB-303. Они,
по мнению многих, используют за раз до шести аналоговых машин. Дуэт был раскритикован за свои стереотипы, что касается
 аналогового звучания, но коммерческий успех из ремиксов и смелое освоение новых территорий на собственных релизах говорят против критиковавших их музыкантов.
Acid, House and Techno changed the landscape of the German music scene ever since the end of the eighties. Producer Ramon Zenker (born 11.11.1968)
and DJ Oliver Bondzio (born 7.29.1967) were ahead of this new movement right from the start. In 1991 they formed Hardfloor and had their first
success with the release Once Again Back/Drug Overlord on the well-known label Eye Q. Only a few months later Hardfloor released their
Hardtrance Acperience EP on Sven Vath..s cult status label Harthouse. This EP made them famous for their innovative sound far beyond
 European boundaries, the song Acperience 1, which even made its way into the UK charts, is still one of the milestones of Techno culture.
Only one year later the first long player TB Resuscitation was released, followed by other great and successful Albums such as Respect
(1994), Homerun (1996), Best of Hardfloor (1997) and All Targets Down (1998). In 1998 the popular label K7 released their tenth
 X-Mix-Compilation called Jack The Box. K7 managed to persuade Hardfloor to do the track listing and mixing of this album.
On this compilation Oliver and Ramon present tracks that have influenced them the most, especially sound wise. This sound is called
 Acid House and the instrument that comes to mind immediately is the TB 303 built by Roland. The TB 303 is the centre of the Hardfloor
Sound, but breakbeats and Trip-Hop elements spice up the audio experience of Hardfloor, finally resulting in the separate project called:dadamnphreaknoizephunk.
Hardfloor managed to gather a huge fan base in the land of the rising sun. They had their first gig in Japan in 1994 and ever since Ramon
and Oliver keep on returning every year to celebrate with one of the most enthusiastic audiences of the world. As a special thanks for
the Japanese fans Hardfloor often release Bonus Tracks, not available in other countries. They also remixed tracks for many Japanese
artists and contributed a track for play station-game: Ghost In The Shell. Of course many other states all over the world are glad to
welcome Hardfloor in their clubs. Australia, the USA, you name it. Oliver and Ramon played the big festivals: Tribal Gathering (UK),
 Universe (UK), Arivika (SWE), Mayday (D), Time Warp (D), Nature One (D) und Quart Festival (NOR).
Apart from working as producers Hardfloor are very requested remixers for international pop acts in the likes of Depeche Mode,
 Mike Oldfield, New Order, Human League, Mory Kante and Anne Clark, as well as more underground style techno acts like
 Robert Armani, Secret Cinema, A Guy Called Gerald or the Rising High Collective.
After a slightly longer break in which Oliver and Ramon produced the two dadamnphreaknoizphunk albums Take Off Da
Hot Sweater and Lost & Found, hardfloor founded their own label in 2003: www.hardfloor.de. Since then www.hardfloor.de
 released: HF001 Alphabetical, HF002 Da Revival(licensed and remixed by Brique Rouge for France), HF 003 Soulful Spirit,
HF004 Murano as well as the exclusive Japan 12 HFXX Acid Energy.
The 6th album „4 Out Of 5 Aliens Recommend This“ was released in Mai 2005 and contained exclusively new and
 unreleased material. Parallel to its release the album was presented in live-shows worldwide.
HF began the year 2006 with their second mix-CD. To the 15th anniversary of HMV Japan they chose tracks from their
 early career surrounded by mostly German Acid numbers from the early 90s. Shortly after that, the label-compilation
 „Compiler 1.0“ (CD only) was released, containing the releases HF001-HF004 and „Who took da box?“ from HF xx Japan special plus „Devils & Donuts“.
In the meantime the12“ HF006 „T 2 Da C” (Da Remixes) / HF007 Limited 10” Picture disc „Devils & Donuts“/ Who took da Box?“
and HF008 ”Tugger/ Butterflies in Bottermelk” have been released.
In December 2006 the Versus-Series was launched, starting with the 12” HF009 Rob Acid „Blueprint“ vs. Hardfloor „Hitchhiker Habits“
 and followed in February 2007 by 12“ HF010 Andresandreas „707“ vs. Hardfloor „it’s him, it’s him“.
On 7th of September 2007 Oliver and Ramon will release the brand new album “The Life We Choose”.
The style of the album can be described as typically Hardfloor, which could nearly be called a genre of its own.
 The duo..s last album was inspired by 80s Acid from Chicago, and now Hardfloor returned to their own roots
 in the midst 90s combined with influences of Dadamnphreaknoizphunk,Oliver and Ramon’s side-project (melodic 303 lines!).
Under the category Acid, you will find 9 brandnew tracks, for instance the technoid „...Me, three“, to the dark „It’s Ok“
 and the electro inspired “The Life We Choose“. The album also contains club burners like „The Trill Acid Theme“
and „Who You Gonna Call?“. The tempos of the tracks vary from 117 to 132 bpm except for one Downbeat-Acid-Track.
Enjoy it !!!
