Answer Code Request (Ostgut Ton, Berghain Resident / Berlin)
When the first EP from Answer Code Request suddenly hung on the wall of the famous Berlin record store Hard Wax in 2011, there was instant speculation. Was this another incarnation of techno protagonists like Marcel Dettmann or Shed? Many were sure it would be so, even if further discussion was quickly agreed that the music on this mysterious 12” was on such a different caliber and a pretty bold reinvention. The industrial penetrating power, the heavy groove and the firm determination that was associated with the sound of Berghain and Ostgut were there, but many layers acted differently, suggesting a different handwriting. The Berlin techno heritage here connected to the melancholy feel of Detroit, but also with the heyday of the British 'Artificial Intelligence' and later rhythmic innovations of local bass music, resulted in a completely fresh and original sound. The musical concept stood out so clearly that here obviously was not an already established artist who was exploring new ways, but a new artist on a new path and nothing less.
When Patrick was unveiled as the enigmatic producer behind Answer Code Request, there were at least some guesses on the right track. Before made known as Answer Code Request in 2010, he spent his youth in the same small town near Berlin with Marcel Dettmann and Marcel Fengler, where he shared their experiences to drive, as a teenager, to the big city to experience the clubs, which formed the tradition of the 90's. If you listen to the music of Answer Code Request, whether the amazing releases, as an astonishing live act, or in the form of his diverse and impressive converted DJ sets, everything always fits together. Answer Code Request waited some time to come into focus intentionally. He waited until everything was perfect and ready to go. And then he took much less time than almost any other for his breakthrough, and remained, that's why. From the initial public perception to internationally acclaimed artist, performer and resident DJ at Berghain, everything in just one year. Enough said.
