I've let this blog linger, sadly, but I finally remembered to post again, and what did I get by random result? One of my absolute favorites of the 1,100+ tracks in my collection!
S.H.O.K.K. and Flutlicht are actually related groups, both are duos, and both include one of the same guys, Marco Guardia, a Swiss DJ/Musician who also went by the stage name of Reverb.
He's retired now, and the Flutlicht name seems to have gone with him. His Flutlicht partner was Daniel Heinzer (DJ Natron) who only ever released under the Flutlicht name, although he also did a lot of remixes at one point (although they were often collaborations; i.e., remixes of Flutlicht songs or S.H.O.K.K. songs.) Guardia's partner in S.H.O.K.K. was Claudio Pettanice, who also used the stage names DJ Emergency and DJ Giotto, and who still works with the S.H.O.K.K. name, although his new partner is Nicolas Perrottey (DJ Space Raven.)
Anyway, both Flutlicht and S.H.O.K.K. have some great songs, but probably both of them are even better known for some of their absolutely insane remixes than for their own songs anyway. Massive remixes like that of fellow Swiss artist Dave Joy's "First Impression" or DJ Spoke's "Ignition" (also Swiss), Marc Dawn's "Expander", Alex Bartlett's "Amnesia", etc. The list goes on and on. The S.H.O.K.K. and Flutlicht output is some of my absolute favorite stuff in the genre.
