Klangkuenstler is a German DJ and producer based in Berlin, where the club scene helped shape his musical direction. His productions connect the force of early-2000s techno with industrial textures and pronounced emotional shifts, moving between tension, melancholy and release. Releases on Second State sit alongside his own OUTWORLD platform.

OUTWORLD carries that direction into both a record label and an event series. His All Night Long performances give him the space to connect different periods of techno, including records from the late 1990s through the mid-2010s. Extended sets let the energy develop across a night, linking his own productions with a wider record collection.

Klangkuenstler connects the raw drive of early-2000s techno with industrial textures, strong hooks and atmospheric passages. His sets combine older and newer techno, with extended solo nights giving that range room to develop.

Klangkuenstler founded OUTWORLD as a record label, developing it into an event concept with its own visual and production direction. He is also the founder of the earlier Zuckerton Records label.
