Today my charity album ‚Recontrol – The Remix Sessions‘ is released! It presents 17 remixes by amazing artists remixing original tunes of my debut album ‚Control‘ – plus a continous mix of mine for those purchasing the entire release on selected platforms.
During the lockdown this release was initiated openly and everyone was invited to participate. Read more about the story behind the release and the track list below.
Today Bandcamp is giving their fees to the artists, too.
As a Bandcamp special, until the end of the upcoming week, buying my entire discography is dicounted with 50% and on top I will donate all profit from all sales on Bandcamp that happen in that period to Doctors Without Borders, too.

Background of the release:
When Van Bonn gave control over the sounds of his debut album during the Corona-pandemia, everyone was invited to create a remix, no one was excluded. The idea was to get creative in a challenging period when most of us were under lockdown. This release is the result of the many contributions Van Bonn received from all over the world. All profit from these remixes will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.
Since his debut album ‚Control‘ back in 2016, Van Bonn thought about the idea of a follow up remix release. The album‘s title ‚Control‘ refers to different forms of events that are connected to that term. For example: keeping control over your own life, losing self control or control due to one´s will or an unforseen event. When the Corona virus spread all over the world and the first countries went under lockdown, it seemed to be the right moment to turn the idea of the remix release into reality. Van Bonn gave up the control over his sounds.
The 17 selected contributions from 9 countries span over many facets of dubby techno: from groovy to rhythmical, reduced and layed back to forward driving, almost functional vibes. But there are also leftfield dubby excursions and an almost elektro-dub like version as well as a neo classical finale.
Thank you very much for your support and to everyone involved!

Since the release of my debut album ‚Control‘ back in 2016, I thought about the idea of a remix release of the album. ‚Control‘ refers to different forms of events that are connected to that term. For example: keeping control over your own live, losing self control or control due to ones will or an unforseen event. Right now it seems to be the right moment to kick off this idea to turn into reality. Also, as most likely, a lot of people are at home these days. Hence I give you the control over my sounds to create something out of it while we are in an overall situation that we are not in control of on a wider sense but we can contribute to it on an individual level.
It would be great to receive a remix from you. No one is excluded. If you want to get creative, please feel free to do so.
The idea is to release selected remixes I receive as part of a ‚remix release‘ of ‚Control‘. The release will happen on my label Van Bonn Records and will be digitally. After covering the mastering costs, all profit will be donated to Doctors Without Borders!
Deadline for sending in your remix is 20th of May 2020.
