Gas

Wolfgang Voigt is considered one of the most influential creators of our time. He is an artist, producer and one of the owners and founders of Kompakt, the famous Cologne label. In the 90s he was one of the main responsible for the minimal - techno sound, mainly through Kompakt, where in parallel he created the GAS project in 1995. The culmination of the project is the trilogy that make up the albums Zauberberg, Königsforst and Pop. Through these works he contributed to forging the foundations of what we know today as ambient music.

In 2017 he released his first album after 17 years, Narkopop, an album of symphonic ambient deeper and very close to classical music, and a year later he published Rausch. From the beginning, the main thread of the entire project has been and continues to be the forest, both in its sounds and in the visual part to which Voigt attaches great importance in staging.
