Patentblau was founded by the Djs Daniel Vague and Martin Ez in 2005 with focus on throwing underground nights of outstanding quality in sound and decoration. Finding new venues, like the scaffold of an old slaughterhouse on an urban green or an adventure playground, and putting them into a new context with their festivities is another major characteristic of their activities.
Artists like Maral Salmassi [Television, Art of Perception], Jo Sauerbier [Kompakt], Axel Bartsch [Sportclub], Argy [Poker Flat, Liebe Detail, Cocoon], Dub Kult [Arcola, Traum, Raum...musik], Ion Ludwig [underl_ne, alphahouse] and Saytek [Console, London] performed on their parties as well as acts from the local scene like Erik Panzer and Anarki of the [barfuss!] crew, Mary Jane [LPG], Sportbrigade Sparwasser, Tomas Fernandez [LZM].
But not only their own nights are in demand, their dj skills and musical tastes are as well. National and international dj gigs alongside names like Daniel Bell, Lawrence and Benno Blome and in locations like Festsaal Kreuzberg, Maria, Senatsreservenspeicher, Sternradio, Zurmöbelfabrik, Hoppetosse, Arena Club and Bar25 or at events like Tanz am Strand and Fete de la musique are just the highlights of an outstanding catalogue.
While Daniel Vague tends to play darker, more minimalistic techno, Martin Ez has a very unique way of blending minimal techno with some melodic and electrohouse elements - explosive recepies for the dancefloor!
