------------------

Stacey Pullen is the Kosmik Messenger.

An innovator from the second wave of Detroit techno, he grew up under the mentorship of Detroit's legendary three: Derrick May, Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson. Still continuing to produce his characteristic atmosphere laden electronic sound, Stacey Pullen compounds his reputation as a producer with that of being one of the world's most in demand DJs, playing weekly across the globe year in year out. With a font of passion for music and performance that never dries up, Stacey Pullen still plays every gig from the heart, seeking to surprise and engage, to provide an unforgettable experience, tooffer his unique catalogue up without predictability, defying expectation. Above all, from his earliest attempts to the current day Stacey Pullen has stayed true to his one goal: to become and to always be an Innovator.

From the age of 9, when he started playing flute in his school band, Stacey has
always been playing musical instruments. In high school he found himself traveling
around to a lot of cities in the USA playing percussion in school bands, which gave
him a taste of – and preparation for – the traveling involved in life as a musician. He
had also seen and been prepared for a musician's life from watching his father who
was in a Motown band called the Capitals in the 1970's, filling much of Stacey's
childhood with observations of a life dedicated to music and travel.

Around 1985, while Stacey was still drumming and traveling with his high school
band, the Detroit Techno movement was born, and provided a revolutionary sound to
the youth of Detroit. Stacey Pullen and some friends from his band took their cue
from musical leaders like Jeff Mills and Electrifying Mojo Radio and began to
experiment with turntables and a mixer. He also started clubbing around the age of
15, the first club he frequented was called 'The Primadonna', the first DJ he
remembered was a local legend called Alan Ester and the first music he was
clubbing to was called 'Progressive Music' – not in the sense of the word that we
currently understand, but because, in Stacey's words “the meaning of 'progressive'
was a futuristic way of thinking about music.” After graduating he went to university
in Tennessee, leaving techno behind apart from mix tapes and weekend jaunts back
to Detroit to go to legendary club the Music Institute. After a couple of years, Stacey
realised his future was in music not academics, and he abandoned his course and
moved home to make music full time.

Through The Music Institute, Stacey quickly got to know the leading lights of Detroit's
underground: Alton Miller, Chez Damier, Derrick May. Alton was living in the same
building as the club, and showed Stacey a lot of the background activity, including
watching Derrick May making his tapes for his weekly radio show. Stacey
approached Derrick, told him that he made music and Derrick invited him to play
some to him. From here, Stacey started hanging out at the Transmat studios and
became friends with Jay Denham, who was recording on Transmat sub label Fragile
as 'Fade to Black'. Stacey watched Jay work, absorbed a lot of knowledge, and from
there Stacey started putting more sophisticated beats together, making his first real
tracks. He played some to Derrick who told him “ it's cool but you need to work
harder” – which Stacey resolved to do and went back to the studio.

A couple of years later, in 1992, Derrick suggested that a good way to develop his
skills would be for Stacey to do some remix work with Kevin Saunderson. Stacey
began to work with Kevin on remixes including one for Karen White - 'The Way I
Feel About You' and some which never made it to print, including one for the
Prodigy. While Kevin was originally commissioned, he asked Stacey to do his own
remix. The Prodigy liked it, but their label didn't. Stacey kept the backing track
without the Prodigy samples, and turned it into his first track which was later released
through a subsidiary of KMS in 1993. After some more time perfecting his craft
Stacey again played some original sounds to Derrick, who agreed to release his first
Silent Phase track 'Ritual Beating System' as the 'Bango EP' on Fragile, which was
Derrick's experimental label. Stacey was also invited to submit this track, “Wave The
Rave Goodbye”, to a compilation of new Detroit artists on KMS. At this point Stacey
truly became part of the Transmat/Metroplex/KMS team – the three studios worked
very closely together, and were housed on different floors of the same building in
downtown Detroit.

In early 1993 Derrick, who was spending most of his time outside the USA at that
time, started encouraging Stacey to play gigs in Europe to widen his audience and
support the single. He invited Stacey to join him in Amsterdam for a month – that
month became a year. He moved in with Derrick and together they toured Europe
every weekend playing Detroit techno to what Stacey remembers as an enthusiastic
and interested audience. Stacey began to play high profile gigs at clubs like
London's Ministry of Sound and Paris's Rex Club, and began meeting the DJs and
artists who worked in Europe like Laurent Garnier, Frank De Woolf and Renat and
Marcus Loan from Belgian super label R & S, who invited Stacey into the studios to
make a record. This ended up becoming the first Silent Phase album, 'Theory of
Silent Phase' in 1994.

After a year, Stacey moved back to Detroit, ready to establish himself and start his
own label. Throughout 1994 he commuted between Europe and the USA, finishing
the Silent Phase album at R & S and DJing. He also made his first trips to Japan,
South East Asia and Australia to DJ. By then he had released another Fragile track
'The Sphinx' as Bango, and the first Silent Phase album was ready for release on
Transmat in association with R & S. Flooding in after the album release were a lot
of offers for Stacey to record on other labels, including one from Mr. C to record on
his UK label Plink Plonk. This resulted in a couple of released on Plink Plonk by the
alias 'Kosmik Messenger' – 'Eye to Eye’ and 'Flash' - both released in 1995. Stacey
was also DJing a lot of dates at The End and around Europe, which continued non
stop until 1997. Through his releases on Plink Plonk, Stacey was then invited to
release on the new Belgian label 'Elypsia' as 'Kosmic Messenger', which led to the
release of his second LP 'The Kollected Works of Kosmic Messenger', which Stacey
recollects as a 'straight up techno album' for him, after the more spiritual first album
on Transmat.

In 1998 Stacey was invited to produce his very first major label release on Virgin
Records, and at the same time was planning to open the label he had wanted to start
for about three years 'Black Flag'. He recorded a more conceptual LP 'Today is the
Tomorrow You Were Promised Yesterday ' for Virgin imprint ‘Science’, the first under
his own name. He was very influenced by his research into the history of Jazz, and –
with the support of Virgin – used unorthodox ideas including the inclusion of an
Opera Singer on one track 'Vertigo'. He also released remixes from influential artists
of the time like Dave Angel and 4Hero. He also started his first label Black Flag
Recordings with his partner of that time, and started releasing records as 'Black
Odyssey', starting with 'Sweat' in 1998 and then 'The Stand in 2000'.

Around that time, as vinyl started to look a little shakier and after 8 years of
consecutive releasing and touring, Stacey took a break from recording. He began to
ramp up his DJing schedule even more, and spent the next 4 to 5 years
concentrating mainly on furthering his own musical education. Through this time,
Stacey's reputation as a DJ became as much of a draw card as his reputation as a
producer, and he became renowned for long, experimental, adventurous and soulful
journeys through music lasting at least 5 hours. He sees each set as a 'best of' all
dance music through time – there is no one style he prefers, Stacey just plays the
best of everything, with an emphasis on passion and innovation: no two sets are
alike.

2007 sees Stacey still on the road DJing each and every weekend, bringing his
signature eclecticism to some lucky part of the planet. He DJs original tracks from
vinyl, but also plays many of his own edits and tracks freshly burned to cd – edits of
tracks he has made, he has been sent by other artists, promos, tracks he has
bought. As a result, every set becomes more personalised, more unique, and
indisputably a window into Stacey's musical passions. The lure of this technological
innovation has also brought Stacey back to the studio, making his own tracks and
executive producing other artists. Also, excitingly, he has rekindled his Black Flag
label and has been preparing new releases using a mixture of analogue equipment
and digital post production which he thinks are amongst his best ever work, plus
plans to release older material which has never been heard before.

Na, Daft Punk is es leider nicht.

Es ist weniger eine schnelle Abfolge der Vocals wie in Technologic, sondern mehr wie in "Flaunt it" von TV-Rock.

Suche hat sich erledigt: es ist D-Unity - Shake it (D-unity shaker Mix), wobei eher Techno als Electro, hatte ich falsch in Erinnerung...
