The inaugural episode of 400 Floor features Anthony Child and Karl O’Connor, respectively known by their individual monikers Surgeon and Regis. In the early ‘90s they took the blueprint of Detroit techno and melded it with their British industrial and post-punk influences to create a harder edge sound that became the foundation for all European techno to follow. In this interview we dig deep into their history together: from growing up in the Midlands and their introduction to the community that facilitated their friendship to the formation of Karl’s label Downwards and Tony’s early success in the nascent European techno scene of the 1990s.
