User Submitted Posts // The passing of Mille Plateaux label owner Achim Szepanski

About the author

Neuro… No Neuro (NNN) is a moniker of the electronic musician Kirk Markarian, an abstract music producer/synthesist, painter, and graphic designer residing in the arid desert of Tucson, Arizona. Currently he works as an Animal Cage Wash Technician at the University of Arizona.


It’s with great sorrow that Achim Szepanski, label-owner and philosopher has passed away. His work with the creation of the Mille Plateaux / Force Inc. label(s) was highly influential on many electronic artists’ works and leads listeners away from typical compositional style.

On a personal note, both Achim and Lain took me into their musical fold with open arms and pushed my music into places that I hadn’t seen before. I am very grateful for their efforts and am curious to see what Lain’s next steps will be.
