Downtempo-electro pioneers Kruder & Dorfmeister hit the decks at KCRW HQ to preview their 30th anniversary tour: An Evening With Kruder & Dorfmeister.
Austrian DJ/production duo Kruder & Dorfmeister are pioneers when it comes to indulging electronic music’s chiller impulses. Since their early ‘90s origins, they’ve gravitated to downtempo melodics and Boom Bap beats. They’re also a major staple of KCRW playlists spanning years and departments. Dig The Treatment’s theme song? That’s “Chocolate Elvis” by Tosca, a Richard Dorfmeister side project from the K&D extended universe.

Now celebrating 30 years together as a musical team, Kruder & Dorfmeister commandeer the decks at KCRW HQ to deliver a top secret mix of highlights from their illustrious career. The duo also dish with Novena and Anthony about nearly getting stuck in Black Rock City following the torrential downpours they experienced during their first trip to Burning Man. Plus, they share how early techno inspired their genre-departing sounds, and they share the secret to their lasting partnership: “Money.” Just kidding, it’s their unbridled enthusiasm for music discovery that keeps the tunes and the DJ sets flowing.
