a fresh addition to the moodmusic roster but a longtime veteran in the house-scene, alexander maier aka dj all*star from stuttgart is well known from his earlier releases on buzzin fly, exun and criminal records. he began his career playing underground techno in south of germany but over the years became more and more influenced by detroit and chicago house. you can hear these influences on sahara in both the rain and river version. deep and reduced grooves with enough soul and atmosphere, yet fully functional for the floor, sahara rain kicks in with a heavy bass sequence building a perfect platform to be followed by the synththeme which hit s the peak hour perfectly. i see some hands going up here already… sahara river starts more housey, building a classy, low-slung huge groove with perculating synths and almost tribal feel to the drums. the modulating synths lifts the track to new heights with a break of superbly layered twisted pads before the drums kick back in in full effect. as this would not be enough we asked our thrusted chicago connection and alexs buddy, mazi aka audio soul project to remix sahara rain. if you consider people who s been in the biz for some time mazi is one of the warriors of the sound, never choosing the easy way but thrustfully following his true way of house music. and house it is, classic but cleverly updated to 2008 with a twist of so-cal thrown in for good measure. bouncey and jacking is the words which comes into mind when hearing this, excellent work and a another bomb for the hot months to come

nach buzin fly, criminal rec, exun... nun also robotronic . melodiöser & hypnotischer techhouse der emtionen transportiert !! durchaus was für neotrance freunde

the criminals welcome alexander maier to their roster with his stunning track >ino<, which comes with a equally strong remix by sian (pokerflat, dessous) on the b-side! alexander maier aka dj all*star has previously released on exun records and has remixed artists like phonique, kris menace, etc. and is also part of kleinkariert. his releases are supported by carl craig, david duriez, fafa monteco, phonique to name only a few.alexander maier returns on criminal with a stunning, a little bit trance influenced, track with beautiful harmonies and melodies. a throbbing, undefined and sexy bassmelody accompanies the beautiful pads throughout the journey. we know it s not the typical criminal sound you are used to, but we had to get our hands on this track as it is simply wonderful! and since we are releasing an ep by sian next year, we thought it d be a nice introduction to criminal to have sian remix >ino<. his remix catches a similar vibe to the original, but features more progressive synths and sounds. but hey… have a listen yourself and you ll understand what we re talking about!
