Ben Klock has revealed details of his forthcoming debut artist album ‘One’, which will be released early next year through Ostgut Ton.

The Berlin-based producer has assembled a 13 track offering of typically grand, Berghain-styled techno, that also makes reference to dubstep and ambient.

“I haven’t had a prefab concept really.” said Klock on the album. “All I wanted was to work on it as an album. The piece’s atmospheres in itself and in relation to each other were of greater concern than thoughts like ‘do I need another ambient track, or do I need a kick drum to make this work in a club?’ In principle, all of it’s techno, but I don’t see ‘One’ as a pure club album.”

After a stellar 2008, releasing the much lauded ‘Shedding The Past’ by Shed, and Prosumer and Murat Tepeli’s ‘Serenity’ (among many others), 2009 looks set to be commenced in fine style for Ostgut Ton with this release.
