- Thomas Brinkmann
Thomas Brinkmann (born in 1959) is a highly regarded German producer of experimental
minimal techno music. Although experimenting with records since the early eighties, he gained wide reputation with his re-workings of material by fellow artistsMike Ink andRichie Hawtin released in the second half of the 90s. These productions were made by playing physically modified vinyl records on highly customized turntables with an additional tone arm.Brinkmann later founded the "Ernst" record label and introduced his own productions on a series of 12" records taking their titles from female names. He has since expanded his extensive production catalog on his own "Max Ernst" label, as well as other highly respected outfits such as
Traum Schallplatten ,Raster-Noton andMute Records (under the Soul Center alias).External links
