Andreas Krüger is the man behind Der Dritte Raum. "The least important thing in all I do is myself," he says. "It's about the music." But of course there would be no epic anthems like "Hale Bopp" or "Electric Friends" without his creativity. The son of musical parents grew up immersed in music. Andreas began to study the piano as a child but quickly tired of rigid instruction he stopped taking lessons and instead played along to his favourite records "trying to understand how they made the songs." His main love, though, was electronics and physics. "I never thought I'd be a artist," he says with a chuckle. "I was the boy who built my own circuits." This fascination with electronics helped spark his love for synthesizermusic. In the early 90s he saw his two great loves, music and technology, wedded to create something unique. Andreas dropped his other projects to concentrate on making Techno. The marriage of Andreas's deep musical background and peerless technical skills birthed a unique sound that runs like a high-tensile wire through his prolific output as Der Dritte Raum. Andreas´s sound has changed over the time, but without losing it´s distinctiveness. In the course of a dozen albums and more than 250 tracks, he has never lost his fascination with pushing the boundaries of creating sounds and melodies. „I don´t care about styles and genres,“ he says. „For me it´s all about technology, love and art.“
