Quality Grooves Since 2001
Hey There
Welcome to Switchstance Recordings' homepage, where music is our passion. As a music label and publishing company located in Cologne, Germany, we've been dedicated to showcasing the talents of our friends and artists since 2001. Thomas Katongole-Strauch, also known as Dogu of Ancient Astronauts, founded Switchstance Recordings to provide a platform for their music. Since then, we've expanded our artist roster to include musicians from around the world. Our mission is to promote diverse and innovative music that transcends boundaries and resonates with audiences everywhere.
