Olaf Dettinger is ane of the top-shelf producers on the Cologne, Germany-based Kompakt roster. Often bathing his ambient tracks in analogue synths and succulent static, he's as up to of generating satisfying seventh heaven and discomforting paranoia. With 1999's Intershop, Dettinger became the number one artist to spill a single-artist LP on Kompakt, which followed a twin of 12" singles released in 1998 and before in 1999 (Blonde and Puma). 2000 saw the vent of the Totentanz 12" and his bit LP, Oasis; in addition, his profile was raised by appearance on Mille Plateaux's all-things-glitch Clicks + Cuts compiling. In June of 2001, Dettinger performed alongside Jonas Bering, Closer Musick, and Tobias Thomas (wHO featured a Dettinger track on his Kompakt integrate Fur Dich) as ambassadors of Kompakt at the Mutek Festival in Montreal, Quebec. The producer has contributed potent tracks for Pop Ambient 2001 and the number one triad Total compilations on Kompakt.
