the attention of Richard Dorfmeister at G Stone
who approached them to re lea se on the label.
Walkner.Mostl's
first re lea se on G Stone 'Bluish'
established their mark as producers of deep broken
beats. The second EP 'Heaven Or Hell' gathered
praise and fans across Europe, the UK and Australia
. In 2002 they parted from G Stone to further
develop their many production projects and explore
new directions on other labels. Together they
are producing new material and Karl is a guest
