2001 was the year that gave birth to Switchstance Recordings, the independent music label founded by Tom Strauch in Moers / Germany (now located in Cologne).

Since the beginning of Switchstance Recordings Tom was one half of production duo Ancient Astronauts, together with his partner Kabanjak.

The aim of the label and it´s artist was to collaborate with international artists and produce anti-pop cutting edge music that combines organic instruments with modern production techniques.

Timeless grooves with a deep portion of soul.
