Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions (answered by Lütze himself)
Last update: 10.11.2007


- Q: Why Lützenkirchen?

-A: Because that´s my name.

-Q: Which VST Plugins do U use

-A: The ones that get the job done. I never use the same stuff frequently. More important is,
that I hate presets. In my opinion it´s never the point *what* you use, way more important *how* ;)

-Q: Can we make a remix swap?

-A: Most of the time the answer will be simply no. At the end it depends on. But normally I nearly never do remix swaps.
Hope you understand.

-Q: Can I send you some demos and you can give them to Great Stuff / Craftmusic/etc?

-A: I´m not the A&R of theese Labels. Feel free to send your demos directly to the A&R.
I did this by myself in the beginning.

-Q: How much costs a remix / booking /etc when I want you to x/y/z

-A: first of all this always depends on. Second, please feel free to send a request
to my bookingagency or my management, thats why they´re there for me.;)

-Q: I have a supercool demo for Platform B! The sound fits totally to your label.

-A: As said on PLatform B website & myspace site this is a
concept about friendship. No personal friends, no release on platform b, no matter what.


-Q: Do you use more analog gear or digital plug ins?

-A: Whatever floats the boat. You don´t necessarily need all this fancy stuff.
The Give me Love Remix (Coburn) for example never left Ableton live and was
even summed via Abletons internal Summingbus. (Same for some of the LK-Pro Tracks)
On the other hand the unique sound of teh Daily disco bassline was done with a Juno 106,
in my opinion until today not possible to do with any plugin.

-Q: Which sequencer do you use?

-A: 90% of the time Logic Pro.

-Q: Is it true, that you started as a singer/rapper back in the days?

-A: True indeed, and not ashamed of.
It´s also a little secret, that I still do the vocals of some tracks by my self (like Aquaviva & Lutzenkirchen Zombie & No Fear,
Lützenkirchen - The Killer or LXR - Freak me)

-Q: What do you think about DJ X/Y/Z?

-A: Don´t believe the hype.;)

Presstext:
Heavy support by Tiga, Play Paul, Mike Monday, Prins Thomas, Axwell, Mason, Dirty South, …. Lützenkirchen with his first EP on Craft Music reflecting his experiences with Russian airplanes….. It must definitely be banging in these airplanes….. Philippe Zdar from Cassius was in Munich last summer for a gig at the legendary monthly Great Stuff night and spent some hours in Lützenkirchen s studio with the result of a beautiful and typically melancholic song. On that 12inch its not the original but the detroitish Stereovox remix by Italian friends Andrea Bertolini & Ivano Coppola.

Official Great Stuff Bio 2007 (in German)

Wie kommt man auf den Namen Lützenkirchen?
Eigentlich ganz einfach, indem man so heisst.
Tobias Lützenkirchen, ein Name der vielen Szene-Leuten weltweit schon  seit geraumer
Zeit ein Begriff ist, glänzt auch im zweiten Jahr nach  seinem 2005er Debut auf Great Stuff.
Stetig wächst seine Fan-Base und ebenso die stilistische Bandbreite und
Qualität seiner Produktionen.

Mittlerweile als Produzent aus der elektronischen Musik, Dank seines  unglaublich vielfältigen
und dennoch so eigenen Stils (was  sowohl Releases als auch Remixes angeht)
nicht mehr wegzudenken,  spielte er sich innerhalb eines Jahres (!) als DJ
in die Oberliga der  Elektro-DJs.

Er war der erste Great Stuff Artist, der in Japan spielen durfte, hat  schon zwei
Braslien-Touren hinter sich, spielte sowohl auf der Rave on  Snow, als auch
auf der Loveparade (Wagen als auch zwei Clubs), dem  renommierten
"Universo Parallelo", spielt von Ost nach West, wie z.B.  in Mexico, Hong-Kong,
in der Schweiz, Polen, Schweden und nun mittlerweile auch so gut wie jeden
Monat in London.  Unter anderem Gigs in hoch angesehenen Clubs wie dem Herbal,
dem Keys  Club oder dem Turnmills und trotzdem jagt eine Top-Produktion die Andere.

Wie macht er das? Seine simple Antwort auf diese Frage: "In dem man es lebt."
Seiner Aussage nach wird er solange elektronische Musik machen, bis er  tot umfällt.
(Was wir innerhalb der nächsten Decaden nicht hoffen  wollen)

Die Namen für oder mit denen er arbeitete, lesen sich wie die Creme de la Creme
des internationalen Elektro.(unter anderem Meat Katie, John Digweed, John Aquaviva, etc)
Das "Lütze" schon seit einer Weile mit Mr. Tomcraft zusammenarbeitet,
ist auch längst kein Geheimnis mehr.

Mit jenem gründete er jüngst das  Tech-House Projekt "LützenCraft", was vom Namen
her schon zum  schmunzeln anregt, es aber genau auf den Punkt bringt.
Nun hat Tobias Lützenkirchen auch entgültig seine eigene Labelplattform
"Tabula Raza" gegründet (zusammen mit Systematic-Chef Marc Romboy) und
sein nächstes Projekt ist das Münchener Nachwuchslabel "Platform B Recordings",
was sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat Szeneaktive DJs und
Produzenten aus der Region zu fördern.

Wenn man den enormen Level bezuglich Output, als auch Qualität  betrachtet,
ist es längst nur noch eine Frage der Zeit, bis Tobias  Lützenkirchen ein
Level erreicht, welches vielen anderen Produzenten  und DJs der Elektro-Szene
vor allem in bzw. aus Deutschland, immer verschlossen sein wird.

Tobias Lützenkirchen (short facts/bio taken from his myspace site 2007

- since he started spinning the decks one and a half years ago he played all over the world
including hong kong, japan, middle and south america,  skandinavia, the uk, across
whole europe, the eastern  countries and russia.


- his remixes, same as his own productions remain top level quality. even with his unbelievable output.
and even getting more and more  attention in the electronic scene in every country of the world.


- he is one of the very few guys in the scene that is able to produce  and deliver top-notch tracks
in virtually every aspect of style in  todays electronic music.


- he himself is straight techno from the bottom of his heart. No phun intended.

Music for the Girls (Great Stuff)

• music for the girls (original)
• music for the girls (deepgroove dirty house rmx)
• music for the girls (huggotron rmx)
• the core (original)

Presstext:
Huge plays by Satoshi Tomiie, Christopher Just, X-Press 2, Mike Monday, Shlomi Aber, Chus, Andrea Doria…. The unstoppable Lützenkirchen this time showing his typical german elektronic roots (which obviously is Kraftwerk). His feeling for the right synth and atmosphere is simply unbelievable. John Dahlbäck (under his Huggotron disguise) and great british dj/producer-duo Deepgroove both deliver amazing peak time elektro house rockers with style. And again the bonus track >The Core< is a pure instrumental techhouse tune, showing the incredible diversity of Mr. Lützenkirchen

Releases & Timeline 1992-2006

The earlier Releases. ;)

Because it is such a lot of work, to keep track of all releases and write
them all down into the release list, I decided to put the beatport players
inside here insted of the whole release list and just inserted the list of the
old website in here (which ends at summer 2006).
This is more fun anyways,cause you can listen that way to some
snippets of the tracks.

Of course some releases are missing (the ones that aren´t released
on beatport) but shouldn´t be much and mostly the old ones and/or
with other a.k.a.s.

You can also find more information of Lützes a.k.a.s
and releases here: www.discogs.com
