the berlin-based techno and house producer and dj oliver koletzki has fully committed himself to his roots for this album. they can be traced back to pop music of the 80ies and 90ies, while his productions still manage to transport the fresh energy of today’s electronic music productions. großstadtmärchen is a perfect example for a producers album: oliver koletzki has created a musically compact long player while working together with many different singers. both established artists like mieze katz from the german electro-pop outfit mia., the hot german pop-rock-singer axel bosse, critically acclaimed indie band kate mosh as well as newcomers such as fran, pyur and juli holz have contributed to the album. the result are ten songs that easily fluctuate between catchy pop tracks, modern house grooves and 80ies synthesizer pop yet still maintaining a very own koletzkieske sound dynamic. großstadtmärchen, which translates as the tale of the big city starts off with this is leisure. famous pop singer mieze katz has put down her sexy voice on a guitar-based song pattern that functions as an ideal introduction into the craziness of the big city tales. after hearing this, the listener is directly fully drawn into this world when hearing juli holzs softly whispering voice singing about the dilemmas of love in the big city on zuckerwatte (single release date: 7.9.09). this is a very fine electro-pop tune. coming up next oliver koletzki and axel bosse board an underground train that takes them around the berlin u-bahn system and back.

following in the footsteps of his first release, audition is now back with another hard-hitting, no compromise ep. things kicks off with “sync” a prime time banger track, while “altered vision” has a more soft side to it with its squelchy synth lines while remaining very playable. on the flip side, “the dictator” goes back to more relentless rhythms and heavy sequences, and the ep ends up with “in substance” with its ghost-like melodies.

rap in reinform. richtig geil spitten. richtig was wegflowen, alle an die wand stylen. dass konnte olli banjo bekanntlich schon immer wie kaum ein anderer. das neue album bietet wieder straighten rap, aber mit subtext. brandaktuelle interpretation des zeitgeistes. gesellschaftskritische und politische songs von einem typen, der das maul aufmacht und trotz der thematiken nie die technik aus den augen verliert. wenn alles im chaos zu versinken droht, dann braucht es haltung. dann muss man etwas sagen, ja, sogar politisch werden. rapskills und inhalt schließen sich hier nicht aus, sondern werden in bester olli-banjo-tradition miteinander verbunden.

straight outta brooklyn, nyc - the comedown meets madteo at kokie’s place.

the second release on modern cathedrals includes an original mix by altstadt echo supplemented with remixes crafted by donor, luigi tozzi, and asop. the inclusion of donor’s remix represents a continued effort to link together the detroit and brooklyn scenes, while the luigi tozzi remix connects modern cathedrals to the ghastly, dark styles of techno that italian artists have become so respected for. as a core member of the modern cathedrals team and a primary force behind the label’s event series, asop’s remix is the very first public release of work by this incredible new detroit-based artist. but while the artist names change from record to record, the philosophy does not. we continue in a desperate attempt to generate meaning during the short spasm of a lifetime we are given in a world that seems to conspire to prevent this effort’s realization. this situation might be inescapable, but through the rejection of complacency and dogma, we can approach our end with the bitter comfort that we were at least willing to be honest about our situation.

after almost 4 years of silence tolcha are back with neustadt, another intense and suspensefully cinematic full-length lp. like the title of the record suggests, the berlin based four piece decided to pursue a neo-retro vision of a sonic after-future with this one. what does that mean? the record clearly leans on a motorik aesthetic, but all the while redefining it with modern production techniques and surges of their very own breed of dub, rather than rehashing genre related cliches.
