Pete Namlook (born Peter Kuhlmann, in Frankfurt, Germany) was an ambient and electronic music producer and composer. In 1992, he founded the German record label FAX +49-69/450464, which he masterminded. Inspired by the music of Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream, he also composed his own albums. "Namlook" is "Koolman" spelled backwards, which is the German pronunciation of his real name. Kuhlmann passed away on 8 November 2012 of unspecified causes.
