BIOGRAPHY
Werner started his DJ career in the early 90s in Germany pioneering house in a “techno world”. Travelling around the globe, Werner played to appreciative clubbers at prestigious venues such as Yellow (Tokyo), Fabric (London), Panorama Bar (Berlin), Rex Club (Paris) and Turntables on the Hudson (NYC).
Tired of the same old sound and looking to do something new, he created his own label together with production partner Sefty called Soul Camp Recordings in 1999.
Werner went on to work with labels such as Tracks Of Interest, Liquid Sound Lounge, Sense Music, EFA and Patt Recordings. Werner also worked on remixes for artists like Reel People, Terry Callier, Lenny Fontana, Phonique, Worldless People and Robert Owens to name but a few.
After living in Berlin for many years, he decided to move to London after a one year stay in Majorca where he had DJ residencies at Pacha, Garito Café and Tito’s.
In London he started to work at the infamous Flying Records Shop, joined the production outfit Notenshun and worked for Chillifunk Records as a studio engineer.
As Notenshun, together with Lofty, they released two Albums called ‘Traffic’ and ‘Unfinished Business' and had numerous releases in cooperation with Sandy Mill, Ultra Nate, Ann Saunderson and remixed the likes of Nathan Haines, Spirit Catcher, Sequential Soul (GoGo Music), M-Swift & Diplomats Of Soul (Incognito). In 2006 he joined Miss Jools’s monthly “Clandestino” event at Mr. C’s AKA/The End as a resident DJ.
