a couple of months after the release of sweet nothings, dapayk & padberg are once again treating the vinyl-heads amongst us to a 12? consisting of a sunny selection of the albums core material, just in time for spring. kicking off the a-side, berlin summer nights is nothing short of an anthem: classic rave sounds of epic proportions glide through an arrangement of bouncy beats, crisp percussive work and hopeful vocals until a powerful breakdown delivers the hands-in-the-air moment. this year, summer has come early. next up, the sun came up bedazzles with a pumping beat and robotic vocals, while a progressive synth lead helps along the track’s love lyrics, turning this into a truly stunning musical moment, which already proved its power at sweet nothings’ heart. on the flip, dapayk & padberg present the albums opener, the trippy too lazy. here, were dealing with a rather brooding afterhours number that is equal parts paranoid and mesmerising as a wonky bass vibrates under dubbed out pads, eerie synths and vocal whispers. the perfect antidote to the cheery a-side!

including mollono.bass remix (acker, 3000°)!

played by len faki, joris voorn, secret cinema, housemeister , funk d void, steve rachmad... alexander kowalski is back! after more than a year of not bringing out any new releases and leaving the >different< label, the first 12inch is now to appear on his own label >damage music berlin<, dmb for short. >the heat of the night< clearly takes the former kanzleramt flagship back to its original deep sound. this energy-laden dub-techno number is sure to make the dancers hearts beat faster, and to make them sweat - in the heat of the night... >its been a long way< is a typical pushy kowalski techno track that dares the tightrope walk between rolling basses and melancholic soundscapes. as for >dont judge me (just because i like the rave)<, the name says it all! this track is one of the smashers in the current kowalski live sets and has already taken apart a number of clubs in the process. alexander kowalski decided to found a label of his own primarily to release his own tracks that he has either tried and tested as part of his live sets or fresh ideas straight from his studio. in time, he also wants to provide a platform for other artists to publish their music. time to damage!
