Active in the German techno scene since the fall of the Berlin Wall, Kalkbrenner’s been called the ‘Godfather of techno’. He’s also an actor, having starred in 2006’s Berlin Calling, a biopic that could lend itself to a number of DJs around the world, chronicling the hard-partying, drug-dependent ritual that so many of the fast famous tend to fall into. Our pick from the man’s vast repertoire comes from the soundtrack to the film; as dark as the tale goes, this uplifting track offers hope not only with lyrics like ‘As long as we are flyin’/All this world ain’t got no end’ and ‘In the daytime/You will find me at your side/Tryin’ to do my best/And tryin’ to make things right’, but also with a melody that’s perfect for ringing in a new day of promise.
