Pan-Pot
Pan-Pot is the name of the Berlin-based techno duo, German DJs and music producers Tassilo Ippenberger and Thomas Benedix. Since their launch in 2005, Pan-Pot have established their presence in the modern techno scene, reaching popularity with the release of their debut album, "Pan-O-Rama", on 's Mobilee label. Their repertoire is defined as being underground music that is independent of specific genres, primarily spanning techno and house whilst including experimental elements and IDM influences. The duo are credited with producing live sets combined with vocals that are described as revealing a deep understanding  of the dancefloor needs of clubs and festivals. Background. Tassilo and Thomas met in 2003 at Berlin’s SAE Institute where they studied audio engineering. There the two producers completed their studies in sound production and design, which helped them in defining Pan-Pot's sound aesthetic when they started producing music together. In 2005, the duo booked Anja Schneider for one of their events, which coincidentally gave them the opportunity to establish a favorable connection with her then nascent Mobilee imprint. After a few weeks the label launched their second release, which was Pan-Pot's official debut, "Copy  and Paste". Since then a steady stream of tracks and remixes have been released on Mobilee and Einmaleins Musik. The defining moment of Pan-Pot’s career came in 2007, with the release of their debut artist album, "Pan-O-Rama". Tracks such as "Charly" and "Captain My Captain" became hits, which made the artists known for their blend of melodic and plain techno and house. In 2014, Pan-Pot launch the imprint, Second State, signing Amelie Lens and moving into a new chapter of their career.
