”A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.” Lao-Tse (4^th century a.c.)

Who has experienced him wants to experience him again, especially that what he does to you, weekend after weekend, night after night, set after set and track after track.

Felix Kröcher, a solid contributor to “techno made in Germany” for the past years, is far more than only a statement spiced up with some music. He is an institution which turns the night into bright day, which makes you not only hear the music but also feel the music, and where music is much more than only a 4/4 beat. After conquering the decks and electronic hearts of Europe in the last ten years, the boy from Frankfurt has now developed a constantly growing interest in all the dance addicts across the ocean and all around the globe.

So now he sets out to rediscover the world. Equipped with a lot of groovy techno tracks, a good spirit and his gift of transforming his audience into a hypnotic state of dance, he has chosen a more than fitting name for his journey:

“DISCOVER”

“Everything that I want to express on this tour is summed up in this name. There is a lot to discover in the coming months, for me and also for the people coming to my shows.”

Beginning in early March and lasting till July, more than 40 stops are on Felix’ “DISCOVER” route, from small underground clubs up to mega festivals that will host his energetic sets famous for creating a lust for party. And for the first time in his young life this will not only happen only on this side of the planet, but the techno discoverer will also set out to Canada and the USA. 

“I have never been to the USA or Canada before, and I won’t hide the fact that I am excited like a little kid to finally get there. I’ve been dreaming to go there for a long time now, and it is also a huge new challenge for me, as I don’t know what and who to expect there. I’m very much looking forward to this experience!”

But his travels will not only be dominated by the USA and Canada. His quest, interrupted by short stops at the internationally well known MAYDAY and TIMEWARP festivals, will also bring him to Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Croatia, Italy, Spain and Asia.

“The WOMB in Tokyo comes to mind. This club is alive! Everything comes together perfectly there, am exciting location in one of the most breath-taking cites of the world.”

Not only the famous FK flag will be with Felix on his travels, but also a special treat for the fans coming to his shows. For this tour Felix has recorded his new mix compilation “DISCOVER”, and captured his eagerness to present his sets all over the world onto two mixed CD’s.  

“The focus of this compilation certainly is on the music accompanying me on this tour. Having issued several mix CD’s over the past years has helped me in creating this new compilation, as I have learned from the previous releases and was able to include this experiences in the process of making these new mixes. The compilation is spot on and gives a perfect insight into my current style at the decks and my opinion about the “Electronic Music” at this time.”

But wherever Felix’ journey will take him or whoever he will meet:
