after ten years in the music business, frank lorber starts his own label “nummer schallplatten” in 2003. in the years before, he was busy playing many clubs and festivals (like womb-tokyo, the end-london, cocoon club ffm, nature one- hunsrück, mystery land-netherlands, i love techno-gent, amnesia-ibiza etc.)
besides that, he has been working on his career for many different labels. he didn`t have to look too long among his friends. various projects came up (like project 69- johannes heil & f. lorber, electronic home entertainment- joerg henze & f. lorber, explizit- pascal feos & f. lorber)
the idea of starting an own label came up while the recording of frank`s debut „ jailhouse rocker “ cocoon recordings, together with friend and studio partner stefan straka.
the latter, better known as sikora, is responsible for tracks like „metropoler“ or „eigenheim“ on klang elektronik,.their studio (lorber/ sikora) is located in offenbach, in the ex logic- eye q- harthouse building, where the points have been set for today`s time. among others, the first releases for nummer schallplatten under the title „boiled“ and „st.emilion“ were produced here. today, the building hosts the studios of anthony rother, hubert kah or 2 dollar egg.
nummer-schallplatten stands for everything, which is musically funny and attracts you electronically! exactly this is reflecting in frank`s dj set.
2 dollar egg, aka erik besier and gordon heinicke, are meanwhile a musically important part of the label, mainly known through productions for klang or sender records.
their studio (besier, heinicke) is located on the same floor than that of lorber& sikora.
this is why several spontaneous studio sessions have been happening. the result of these sessions is to be released on nummer in this january: besier / lorber – mizu # 9
after frank`s chart entry with a record on warp`s sublabel arcola, the contact to another act on nummer-schallplatten came into life. denis rusnak, who lives in ludwigsburg, played guitar in all styles and in several bands for many years. he released already in 1995 on harthouse and some other labels. finally, he managed to be signed to all-time super label warp unterzukommen.
he is also known through releases for cocoon recordings.
soon, some more highlights can be expected, for instance, remixes by matthew dear or someone else from philadelphia.
meanwhile nummer schallplatten reached #16:
the san lebowski project is a joint collaboration for nummer between swedish “we are founder “agaric“,and “ecco“, a new talent to emerge out of copenhagen, denmark. the mix of their individual sounds create a blend of housegrooves and techno; it's gritty and heavy on the low end but at the same time with a flow and sense of funk and melody. after previous work on the “we are“ series and dutch technolabel syndikaat they now appear on nummer schallplatten.

I've never wished to be at a set as much as this one. I would have been on the dance floor from start to finnish with a grin on my face the size of the Atlantic.
