The Exercise One duo spent a decade recording, DJing, performing live, collaborating, remixing and running two independent labels Lan Muzic and Exone all their own way. Perhaps it's Marco's early years spent absorbed in goth culture & industrial music that made him view techno as a vibrant and playful genre, as much as Ingo's double life as the drummer of a Berlin punk band fuelled their old school Kreuzberg DIY vibe. What is clear is that they both loved what they did and that came across in every infectious performance and their exuberant records. In their own words they were "driving a car called Techno off a cliff, into the sea of endless possibilities”.
