Born and raised in the Bavarian town of Regensburg, brothers Andi and Hannes Teichmann got an early start in making music, playing guitar and singing in the punk bank Totalschaden at the age of 13 and 10. Developing a love for electronic music, the brothers founded their own label Festplatten in 1999, while recording for Kompakt and Disko B and preserving their analogue roots as part of the indie band Beige GT. Andi and Hannes have recently made the move to Berlin and have just started a new label for their creative output, Teichtracks.

was reviewed:
Following up on their hugely popular 'Number Of The Beat' from 2007 the Teichmann brothers return with their first album on their own Festplatten label. 'They Made Us Do It' is a genre-bending effort with lots of memorable tracks, from house (ft. Johnny Dangerous) to quirky electronica pop. Recommended.
