great collaboration of matthias meyer & ryan davis

great collaboration of matthias meyer & ryan davis

it was nearly a year ago when these two graced with their hugely successful track ‘hope’ on our ‘watergate xv’ various artist compilation. matthias meyer and ryan davis come together again to deliver the stunning ‘love letters from sicily’ where infectious organic grooves pave the way for a flourishing well of emotions in the form of lush pads and shimmering sonics that unfold into a tale of epic cinematic proportions. from start to finish it’s a intimate piece of aural imagery, yet the duo always keep a keen percussive focus making it ideal for any dancefloor moment. to complement ‘love letters from sicily’, we’ve enlisted the one and only john digweed to rework meyer and davis’ original of ‘hope’, and with no surprise, he’s given it the master’s touch. staying true to the original, while at the same time reinventing the storyline and constructing tension by saving the powerful harmonies for a later climax, he’s crafted a revision that’s both driving and timeless.

after ryan davis album particles of bliss in june 2012 on traum it was clear to everyone that he was one oft he most versatile artists on the label. there was no electronic playground he did not enter. his phanstastic and illusionary music makes him such a special artist for traum.

betsy just stood there with her mouth wide open. those two guys where fencing each other up and down the stairway. they took 20 steps, back to back, then they turned around, smoothly from the hip, firing magazines at each other. then 10 steps and then 5, both where still standing. they beat each other to a pulp until the blood came out and then until no blood came out and still none of them hit the ground. betsy did not dare to move, even when the duelists finally went away in opposite directions she still stood there like a curtain rod. she cautiously moved her eyes to the left, cautiously meved her eyes to the right, everything seemed to be safe. then there was this flicker of light in betsys sunglasses. they came back.

a real dj weapon. big ups!

the a12 motorway was wrapped in complete darkness. the lights of the windmills were blinking in the rhythm of the rotor blades passing by. they appeared just before sunrise. no one had ever seen this kind of creature ever before: red flashing, and bright shining alien butterflies attracted by the windmills. people stopped, and got out of their cars to watch this spectacle. the flying creatures were constantly creating new, kaleidoscope-like formations, and slowly, and very softly at first, they started singing. and although nobody really understood their behaviour, everybody understood their wistful and hopeful song.

following ryan davis debut >routes of life< on traum in january 2011, his high acclaimed follow up shows ryan is a real tastemaker but also a real club rocking musician. few artists in the electronic modern dance scene of today make music that seems serious and intense... and still accomplishes to have club people go wild on it. it is a bit of a lost treasure of the golden techno days, ryan always reflects in his music when he creates moments of beauty with an collective fee to them. ryan davis in one of them and his new ep shows that side even more than his debut. a-side track supernova brings images together of psychedelic west coast soundtracks of the 70ies, pop art, shoe gazers and maybe salvatore dalis surrealism.

after numerous remixes, collabs and b2b sets, producers hey joe and josia loos are finally putting their collaborative efforts on wax. english for world of shards, scherbenwelt starts with resonating ambient tones leading into vast depths of an illusionary ambience, abruptly and unexpectedly obliterated by a rapid and thumping beat- it s a tough and unforgiving world the duo reveals through this track. pulling the curtains even further back, lohnarbeit, which translates to wage labour, reveals hard truths and makes no compromises. as the deep and unsettling voice declares, social existence comes at a price: labour. work, and you ll exist. tough words, appropriately reinterpreted through hard sounds. momentous techno, literally driven by the crack of a whip. ryan davis gracefully smoothes scherbenwelt s sharp edges, re-concealing these hard truths behind curtains of smooth melody, thus letting us float back into a daze of daydreams, and illusion.

taking the well-formed and increasingly respected catch recordings to its third release is the broken labour ep from bob barker, complete with remixes from berlins ryan davis and greenville massive. with a background in contemporary art and design bob barker looks to create dance floor sounds that transcend the listener like a viewer in a gallery.
