About

Efdemin is the alias of Phillip Sollmann (born 1974 in Kassel), a Berlin-based DJ, producer and composer who has shaped the minimal and deep techno underground since the early 2000s. Trained at the Institute for Computer Music in Vienna, he released his debut album on Hamburg's Dial Records in 2007 and has since put out records on Ostgut Ton and his own label naïf. A long-standing Berghain resident, he moves fluidly between club-focused techno and more experimental, avant-garde territory.
