Thinner is a German electronic netlabel founded in 2001 by Thomas Jaldemark, and currently operated by Sebastian Redenz and Ole Schulte as leading parts of an international team. Based in Frankfurt, Germany, Thinner is one of the most consistent and successful netlabels of recent years. Thinner’s catalogue includes releases from artists such as Digitalverein, Marko Fürstenberg, Benfay, Pheek, Krill.Minima, Christian Bloch and many others. As of September 2006, Thinner productions had accumulated over two million MP3 downloads.
Randomly select an available release from the extensive Thinner discography and there’s a very high probability that the sounds on that album can be broadly described as “dub-inspired”, i.e., some permutation of a fusion of dub with house, techno, or even ambient music. It’s also quite possible that the album could be further redefined as belonging to the sound departments of either “dubby Techhouse“ or “intelligent Dub”, and, if not one of these, the more evasive aesthetic referred to as “Minimalism” is an increasingly more likely descriptor. An alternate categorization can also classify the music as either soft and mellifluous or hard and edgy.
Although dub-influences are clearly the predominant inspiration behind the general flavor of the Thinner sound, even a cursory sampling of its catalog quickly reveals that Thinner is not a static label.

what I can't understand is why so much silence about the releases that went missing because of licesing... why couldn't they tell us openly about it? Dennis DeSantis, krill.minima, so many masterpieces now impossible to get...
