Munich born CHRISTIAN PROMMER is one of the finest producers and DJs in the German club music scene and far beyond. As a member of FAUNA FLASH (with ROLAND APPEL), TRÜBY TRIO (with RAINER TRÜBY and ROLAND APPEL) as well as VOOM:VOOM (together with PETER KRUDER and ROLAND APPEL) he is responsible for a multitude of album productions, 12inches and remixes which have often challenged the traditional borders between genres and even established whole new genres.

His pseudonym DRUMLESSONS is intentionally ambiguous, leaving it unclear wether it means teaching or learning. CHRISTIAN PROMMER who is undoubtedly a master of his field (or should that be fields?) defines himself as a researcher someone who is always trying to discover new musical secrets. And this 12inch is just the pre-cursor to a deeper relationship between CHRISTIAN PROMMER and Sonar Kollektiv. Work is already underway on a full length album...
