[Music & Art]: Selection Of Photos & Mix by Max Drake

 

Artist (Photography & Mixing):
Max Drake

 

Introduction:
This is the first edition of a new series on our blog. We want to mix different arts like photography, painting etc with music (DJ set, exclusive tracks…).

This part features the young photographer Max Drake.

Max started with photography 10 years ago being fascinated by landscape and nature images.

Nowadays he is also into taking pictures of urban motives, getting more and more focusses on that kind of stuff.

Photography was his first love, now accompanied by his second passion: music. Today both hobbies are in peaceful co-existance.

The mix given here is a musical partner for the photos, to inspire your imaginary and give you an idea of Max’ feelings while taking pictures of beautiful landscapes, weird buildings & architecture.

Max is happy with life filled with images and music. For sure he has also a daily life studying law.

Introduction:
Chad Kaska, born in Denver CO in the late 80s, was turned on to electronic music in 2000 at the age of 13. He developed a deep interest in all forms of electronic music as it resonated with a part of him from his peculiar childhood.

Chad began mixing records in 2006 and felt a draw to produce his own music in the key of minimal. At some point he moved to Berlin. Photography is another passion he lives for. We have a small selection of his work.

[Photo Gallery]: Selection Of Photos by Paul Krause (Platin)

 

Artist (Photography):
Paul Krause

 

Introduction:
Paul Krause’s photographs are characterized by their clarity. In his works he is always targeted on clear language of form. He always made the right mood and skilfully combines authentic individuals with brutalistic and clear architecture. In hiis work there mostly follows with very significant and dominating shadows.

With this kind of pictures, he could confince very well-known techno artists all over Europe like Luke Slater aka Planetary Assault Systems, Jeroen Search, Dustin Zahn, Jonas Kopp, Chus & Ceballos, Micol Danieli just to name a few.

This earned him a comfortable timetable and he traveled all the way German cities such as Berlin, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Innsbruck and meanwhile in europes biggest metropoles like Amsterdam, Paris, London and Madrid.

In addition to its own exhibitions and Vernissages, Paul has another division found to spread his work which has gladly welcomed him. Not only by his shootings, convinced Paul Krause, now his work is carefully selected by various record companies.

As Christian Gerlach, head of Lanthan.audio recognized his talent, he offered him exclusive
to be responsible for the cover photographs. These form the basis for the vinyl cover and artwork and so underline the overall concept and portray Lanthan.audio.
The goal is to break boundaries without to lose the reference to architecture, music and photography.

These cover in turn strengthened Paul’s bridges in the scene and ensured so for new networks.

So Paul Krause is now working as a photographer and Booker for the new, very well-established party Drom, Paris. If you reflect all the views of his age, we know that a promising future lies ahead. We wish Paul all the best!
