As a record store, Kompakt has been linking the past, present and future of Cologne's house and techno sound since for 25 years. Originally initiated by Wolfgang Voigt, Jürgen Paape, Reinhard Voigt and Michael Mayer, the store quickly gained a reputation as a hub, much like other record shops that have become the basis of so much more (Rough Trade, Wax Trax, Hard Wax), and in turn grew to harbour not only a round of like-minded DJ's and producers, but also the Kompakt record label and club nights. These days, the network also houses a distribution for over 50 record labels worldwide, artist/booking agency, publishing and artist and label management.
