Welcome to the latest promo of DJ Emerson’s Micro.fon imprint.

Thomas Hoffknecht first caught our attention with his thope tracks. Meanwhile he became hamburgs fastest rising name in techno.

147 is a heavy 4 to the floor track with some tension building little breaks in-between, continuously building until everything climaxes into a powerfull chord riff.

146 displays heavy & intense drums & beats with the chords on top delievering the final punch.

On remix duties we have bavarian powerhorse Alex Bau; his remix is playing around with the jittering synth sounds of the original. stripped beats, rattling hi hats and a tension building breakdown do the trick here.

Original versions of 141 comes in form of the most gentle track of the ep. It displays a shuffled beat and twinkling synths creating a simple groove that is topped by hard hitting claps.

Overall 14X EP is an impressing example of thomas’ ear for great techno grooves.
