ein paar jahre nach seiner letzten platte war es für suff daddy nun an der zeit sein neues gruppy dumb studio einzuweihen. tief verwurzelt in seinem klassischen suff daddy-sound, entstand ein album, das sich in die entwicklung von suff daddy als producer und mensch nahtlos einfügen lässt. er ersetzt das becks und den schnaps als inspirationsquelle und berieselt sich fortan durch die eindrücke, die er auf seinen reisen durch europa und australien sammeln konnte. weniger chopped samples, dafür mehr synthies. weniger hip hop, dafür mehr handgemachte musik. nachdem er 2015 seine dj-shows erfolgreich aus deutschland auf ganz europa verlagern konnte, u.a. mit einem boiler room in london, durfte er auch anderson.paak bei seinen deutschland shows als support begleiten. auf dem album sind unter anderem sein bandkollege dexter (betty ford boys) aus stuttgart und mayer hawthorne aus los angeles vertreten. der einzige up-tempo & vocal track auf dem album ist sicher einer der ungewöhnlichsten für suff daddy. dexter und suff daddy hingegen ergänzen sich mit ihren ganz speziellen basslines und drum sounds, so ergibt sich der bewährte sound gepaart mit dexters brachialem habitus. diesen winter wird suff daddy zum ersten mal mit einer liveband auf der bühne stehen. termine folgen.

according to white material pair galcher lustwerk and alvin aronson, their first collaborative album under the studio ost alias contains a mix of breezy electro, aquatic dub, high speed jit, and shimmering atmospherics. while clearly tongue-in-cheek, it s a fairly accurate description. certainly, there s a fluidity, moodiness and palpable sense of atmosphere at the heart of scenes, which casually drifts between hard-edged club workouts, hazy post-club fare and dreamy, horizontal experiments. it was apparently recorded over a three-year period, during jam sessions at various new york studios. its the spontaneous aspect of its creation that has the biggest effect, and makes the whole thing feel like fleeting snapshots of moments in time.

kicking off the dkmntl ufo series is esoteric techno stalwart peter van hoesen. the berlin based belgian dj and producer has attracted a dedicated following for his signature sound of ebm-tinged productions, and will continue to do so thanks to his distinctive take on how to inaugurate our new platform. from dystopian kinetic techno (‘cartesian taiko’) to an anarchic and dub heavy break beat jam (‘duet dub’), and from the rolling and hypnotic peak-time intensifier (‘p2me’) to synth-heavy seductive high tech soul (‘qaudra’): van hoesen casually wallops you round the back of the head with gargantuan bass vibes. dekmantel is adding a new series to their label called ufo. following the same-titled stage on the annual summer festival in amsterdam, the ufo releases focus on the same sound spectrum. in the forthcoming months, starting in may, ufo will be inaugurated by marcel dettmann, randomer, dj stingray, peter van hoesen, and voiski.
