You will find in this category each week, a review on a MP3 track or vinyl track which is breaking the news. All styles are on the “menu” of this category: minimal, house, electro, techno or even trance in some cases.
The topic will be supplemented by other albums following the latest electronic music news.
With his distinctly beautiful debut EP “Treibholz”, the talented DJ and producer Florian Rietze is welcomed into the Steyoyoke family with open arms. Florian’s delicate blend of unique and eclectic sounds has captured the attention of many within the industry. The recognition received has been earned through Florian’s unique and skilled approach to producing music. This young DJ/producer has a bright future within the deep house scene. Isolated melodies drift ever closer to the beat to evoke a sense of melancholy with the opening title track “Treibholz”, that is the best of the EP, that will be released on the 28th of March.
Florian effortlessly weaves together refined and at times surprising sounds to conjure up an almost dream like state. Gracefully building throughout, «Treibholz» is a down tempo treasure to keep for those somber moments as spring struggles to shake off winter.
«Treibhaus» is an embracing and emotionally haunting track that lingers within the heart. Persistent vocals create the narrative of this track and resonate against idle synth chords to create ideas of insecurity. A beautifully disturbing track with a lot of heart that is sure to reach out to a lot of people.
The EP also features two remixes to help put the finishing touches on this successful debut EP. MPathy’s remix of «Treibhaus» is progressive affair that lifts you high and beyond the clouds. The second remix comes from Antonio Olivieri. The remix takes a more direct and driven take on “Treibholz” and yet still manages to keep the clarity of sounds that the original holds so well.
Nevertheless the 2 originals remain the best and are part of the best EP of the month for sure. What a discovery! This is why I love music; there is always some surprises…
