Tresor

Tresor is a Berlin-based techno label that was founded in July 1991 by Dimitri Hegemann. The label takes its name from the techno club that was established in an underground vault after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Tresor was formerly a division of another label, and it has undergone changes to its label code over the years.

From 1991 to 2002, Tresor had the label code LC 7572 / LC 07572. Afterward, from 2002 onwards, the label's code changed to LC 3702 / LC 03702.

Tresor has played a significant role in shaping the techno music scene with its authoritative presence and influential releases. With its roots deeply embedded in Berlin's rich musical history, Tresor continues to be at the forefront of electronic music innovation and remains a respected force within the industry.

Tresor: True Stories is the first printed excavation of Tresor’s legendary history. Digging deeply into its rich archives, the venerable institution has unearthed countless treasures from its over three-decade old history. Over 400 never before seen photographs, flyers, faxes and other artefacts illustrate a story that intersects with the most important social and musical trend in the modern history of Berlin. The story is told with the voices of those that were there - over 40 protagonists share their first-hand reminiscences of the ‘big bang’ that launched techno into the world. Through the story of Tresor, the book charts the heady days of 80s West Berlin through to the explosion of new energy that midwifed in the new social reality of reunified Germany. This is a unique and essential printed monument to the institution that changed electronic music forever, and the city that allowed it to exist.
