André Pollmann aka apoll started to make music in 1987. living in an
industrial area (duisburg, a town in the german ruhrgebiet) he was
involved in the EBM scene which started to grow at this time in
belgium. apoll was influenced by skinny puppy, front line assembly,
clock dva, tuxedomoon, fad gadget (rip!), soft cell, à grumh…, the neon
judgement, front 242 and of course depeche mode, kraftwerk and portion
control to name but a few. he founded lots of bands and released loads
of cool tracks on different electronic body music compilations. an
album was released on spanish label bol records in 1990. after leaving
duisburg for switzerland in 1991 apoll quit also the EBM scene and
found his love as a producer as well as a dj in electronic, minimal
styled dance music. apoll appears on different imprints like tokyo's
gyro trax and cologne's sub static, where he released a much acclaimed
ep. at the beginning of 2001, apoll started an own label called tongut.
tongut stand for minimal, dubby quality techno and features artists
like cologne's top shots rene breitbarth and falko brocksieper plus the
likes of novatek, todd bodine or dub taylor - not forgetting apoll, who
released the first 3 releases himself. tongut is definitely a label to
watch!
