Der Klang...
Work Them Records artist Sven Von Thulen is not only a dope dj/producer, but also a published author !
His book "Der Klang Der Familie - Berlin, Techno Und Die Wende" (co-written with Felix Denk) is out now and has been described by Groove Magazine (DE) thus :
"Yes, we needed this book! But more than that: It has the makings of an indispensable, definitive work"
It has already been translated into French and in Berlin it is already considered a seminal work, most importantly, by the people that were actually THERE, at the beginning of this scene...
You can check out some more details on the book, HERE.
And you can check out a very cool mini translation of one of the chapters HERE, about the very beginnings of legendary club, Tresor.
