DJ Fragment is Bruchstuecke label-owner Markus Unterfinger. His Zurich, Switzerland-based record label (the name of which translates to "fragment" in English) has released 20 (and counting) brilliant 12"s since its inception in 1999, including the unique compliation "Music For Children" which had some of minimal techno's most respected artists creating music aimed at the ears of toddlers. To date, the Bruchstuecke roster has included the production talents of artists such as Styro2000, Bang Goes, Luciano, Andy Vaz, Console, Dandy Jack, Ricardo Villalobos, Thomas Fehlmann, Dinky, and Galoppierende Zuversicht, amongst many others.

From "The Bunker" website, NYC:

Bruchstuecke is a very weird outsider minimal techno label from Switzerland. We have been huge fans of pretty much every release, starting with the first one in 1999. These guys show very little interest in following trends and have been blazing their own path from the start. Luckily for us, some of the Bruchstuecke posse is on the continent to do a gig at Mutek in Montreal and were very keen to come down to NYC to play with us. DJ Fragment is Markus Unterfinger, who runs the label. We've never heard him DJ, but have total faith in anyone with good enough taste to put out so many amazing records.

[KONTROL] update: We HAVE heard him spin, and he's absolutely wicked! He had the place bouncing. Check out his set in our AUDIO section and hear for yourself!
