Pan-Pot @ Voltt Loves Summer 2012 - NDSM Docklands (Amsterdam) (25.08.2012)


A pan-pot is a simple, functional dial that governs the left and right axis of the stereo field, useful but unremarkable; mobilees Pan-Pot is an entirely different proposition, a duo whose mastery of audio principles allows them to turn conventions on their heads, casting functionality aside as they plumb the deep, uncharted depths of pitch-black techno.
Since their inception in 2005, Pan-Pot have become a dominant presence in modern techno, an ascent mirrored in the rise of their home label mobilee records to the top tier of electronic music. Tagging themselves as the dark side of the force, Pan-Pot have melted minds, warped perceptions and reinvigorated the dancefloor with their heady, unorthodox sound; within their work, subtle pitch manipulations square off with wall-of-sound distortion, the dark stomp of 4/4 is tamed by intricate sound design, and minimalistic frameworks duel with throbbing bass lines, epic builds, and murky, off-kilter melodies.
Tassilo Ippenberger and Thomas Benedix met at Berlins SAE, and their studies in the production and manipulation of sound aided them in identifying Pan-Pots overarching sound aesthetic. The duo booked Anja Schneider for an ill-fated party in 2005, but the unfortunate circumstances helped forge a fortuitous connection with Schneider and her then-fledgling mobilee imprint. Within weeks, mobilees second ever release was Pan-Pots official debut, Copy and Paste. The steady stream of original tracks and remixes that followed on mobilee and Einmaleins, charted the duos unwavering commitment to precise, undulating and kinetic grooves.
The defining moment of Pan-Pots career came in 2007 with the release of their debut artist album, Pan-O-Rama. The aptly named long-player offered a 360-degree view of techno at its most twisted, balancing somber atmospherics with a lightness of touch, and spawning the overground hit Charly. More recently Confronted and Captain My Captain have demonstrated their classic, strong and timely production style, presenting them as the most consistent purveyors of techno around.
Pan-Pot are ceaselessly working and endlessly inventive. When not in the studio writing original material or remixing tracks by a myriad of artists, they can be found on the road, touring. Their DJ sets reveal a keen understanding of the dancefloors needs, and they are unconstrained by boundaries, traversing techno, house and everything in between.
