HORN Presents Answer Code Request

Patrick Gräser, aka Answer Code Request, has made a name for himself by pushing techno’s edges. Since his 2012 debut on Ostgut Ton, his sound – a collision of breakbeats, brooding pads and industrial grit – has kept Berghain floors restless. Born in Fürstenwalde during the fall of the Berlin Wall, Gräser came of age in a swirl of hip-hop, acid and early UK rave. Alongside childhood friends Marcel Dettmann and Marcel Fengler, he soaked up Berlin’s post-reunification chaos, channelling it into a sound that slips between jungle, IDM and Detroit influences. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, he’s not interested in nostalgia – just new ways to make the floor move. Apr 25. B750 via here. HORN, 9pm onwards
