Len Faki (also known under his long-term pseudonym lamonde) was born and raised in the South of Germany where he started
his career as successful producer of electronic music. He took his first steps towards international reputation in the mid-90s with
his project Lexicon on the renowned House Label Plastic City before he founded two highly acclaimed Techno labels: Monoid and
Feis. With innovative productions and sophisticated concepts he soon attracted artists such as Umek, Samuel L. Session and Oxia
(Monoid) or John Selway, The Hacker and Bolz Bolz (Feis), who released numerous 12inches, albums and mix compilations on
his labels.
In 2001, he released (under the pseudonym lamonde on Feis) his debut album „Music For Some Place Other Than This“ which
gained him features in all important German magazines as well as in de:bug. This highly-respected magazine for „the electronic
aspects in life“ portrayed him as one of the pioneering artists to lead Techno on to new directions, praising his style as
„amalgamation and destroying of seemingly opposing elements“, which in a thoroughly positive sense is „based on state-of-the-
art technology“. His DJ mix compilation „Lamonde At The Wheels of Steel“ (August 2002) showcases his distinctive lamonde
style by presenting personal favourites from the Techno legacy next to topical productions at the time.
As Len Faki he has been making his reputation over the last two years. His releases on Superbra (Switzerland), GoodLife
(France) and Terminal M (Berlin) can be characterised by a combination of bass line oriented percussion and pounding grooves.
