Encore

Dance
A.k.a. Joachim Jobb DJ Motion-One

It all started in the mid-nineties with "LiveAct Encore". The techno-hype was huge at this time and we were all together inside an "express train" to another planet or something :-). There were lots of big techno parties and a huge enthusiasm for this "new" music. The tracks were fast, hard, rhythmic, melodic, spherical, and loaded with an incredible energy, as I had never experienced before. I was enthusiastic immediately, and of course was a "fat bass drum" and this "new" filter synths an integral part of each track. Considering the basic sounds and the song structure the whole thing was really something completely new. We were dancing sweaty until complete exhaustion and at least until daylight. There were usually several DJs every night, which were interrupted by some Livacts. We were one of these liveacts, the "LiveAct Encore". Although a "small" LiveAct, we had some very popular song and we were booked for several years about 2 times a month in all kinds of events across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, etc.. Especially in Germany and Switzerland, we had some really big performances in front of thousands of people per evening. At this point a greeting to all people who have seen us playing live somewhere or know us from some good old vinyl records :-). The song "Encore" even made it to the D-Trance Compilation by Gary D., for us at that time a sort of knighthood and of course a great honor to be on the same compilation with tracks like "Rodd-Y-Ler Lifesigns" etc.I do not need to mention, that we didn´t earn very much money with our liveact, but we did it with heart and soul and I really can say in retrospect: "... a damn cool time!"
