Biography:
Besides recording several respected EPs for Chain Reaction under the confusingly titled production concern known as Various Artists, Berlin`s Thorsten Profrock co-owns (with Sasha Brauer) Din Records, home to releases by excellent, respected producers Monolake, Pole, and Arovane. Profrock entered the Berlin electronics scene first by shopping at the Berlin record store Hard Wax while working toward his economics degree. By 1994, he worked at Hard Wax as well, growing closer to the store`s base for legendary productions on the Basic Channel/Chain Reaction family of labels. Profrock also began producing and released his first Various Artists project, 1995`s 1-7, on Chain Reaction. (He also recorded two singles for the label as Resilient and Erosion.) The continuation piece 8, 8.5, 9 appeared on England`s Fat Cat label in 1997, highlighting the producer`s subtle ambient sense and reliance on a restrictive frequency range -- all middles, no highs or lows. Later that year, Chain Reaction compiled his work on the Decay Product compilation, and Fat Cat expanded 8, 8.5, 9 to an EP for Profrock`s second CD release.
