Ben Klock – ‘Subzero’:
When selecting which tracks and synth sounds to recreate using DRC, there are few things we consider. Obviously we want to choose something that shows off the warm, analog characteristics of DRC’s sound, but the result needs to be close enough to the original so that it is recognisable and we can deem it a successful reproduction.

On top of this, each week we try to select a tune or sound that we think will be a popular choice for a wide range of DRC users – this week sees a particular focus on this aspect.

In the past we’ve featured several dance records that have proved themselves to be crossover hits, achieving mainstream/chart success. This week we return to the underground!

Ben Klock (not to be confused with Ken Block, the rally/stunt driver!) is a German born DJ/producer, and is a cornerstone of the Berlin techno scene. Famous for his residency at the club ‘Berghain’, he’s no stranger to ‘The Boiler Room’ either.

After the success of our tutorial on Stephan Bodzin’s remix of ‘Sleepless’ by Pan Pot, this week’s chosen tune ‘Subzero’ features a similarly dark, moody, techno feel.

We love Mortal Kombat too,
