Electric Indigo says “Thanks for this great record! Music and concept are excellent. I’ve always been all for an evaluation and revitalization of the enlightenment process :-) Congrats!” Mathias has produced remixes for Goldfrapp (Twist, Mute Rec.), Steve Bug (Lover Boy, Poker Flat Rec.), Misc. (The Magic Number, Sender Rec.), Frankie (False Start, Frankie Rec.), Luomo (Tessio, Force Tracks/Force Inc.), Renato Figoli, Crane A.K., Raz Ohara, Faust and many more. Schaffhäuser’s motto at the turntables is: Purism sucks! The quality of the music is what’s important, not sheer functionality and a perfect mix. That is: at times his sets can be rather varied from Ware-style music to thumping techno. His current favourites still come from labels such as Cargo Edition, Cadenza, Mobilee, Vakant, Circus Company - just to name a few. Read more on Last.fm.
