Part 1 of the new double-release from Tiefschwarz aims at the heart of house music: Soul. “On&On” is a first-class arranged club track. Starting off with a wonderful mellow theme, that is adumbrated by the bass line in an one-and-a-half minute long exposition. The track ups the tempo with an additional hi-hat resolving into a shuffle beat. In double time, we move on towards the first break. Here an edgy, minor key-chord sequence is introduced, making it obvious for everyone, that this track is gonna take off. Eventually the keys function as a counterpoint to the classic bass line. A four-to-the-floor “On&On” vocal sample takes over after the break, adding another percussive aspect. As the track goes on a mulitiplicity of side elements sets in - no room for tediousness! In the end the “On&On” vocals resolve into “It’s so simple… . Who knows, but this could be a broad hint to all the tech-house academics out there. No matter what, this grande finale raises a smile from every last sweaty soul on the dancefloor. With “Best Inn” on the B-side Tiefschwarz create a dance classic, dressed in 2009 fashion. Reminiscent of long gone Nu-Groove times, a traditional house beat - including a tiny off-beat tinker bell - blasts out of the speakers. A slured synth-organ provides the track with that certain edgyness. Here, the brothers keep it laid-back yet exciting at the same time. This piece goes on and on and on - and you yourself run alongside, not wanting to pause. But watch out! At the latest in the second break, Tiefschwarz put nostalgia to the test via some shockingly muffled metal drums. One of these moments, where you wish yourself back into the middle of an eight-hour deep-house set in 1992. The train departs. One thrillingly beautiful landscape after another runs by, until the warm sun strokes of the South suddenly rouse you out of slumber. Arrived
