Achim Maerz takes electronic abstraction back to a state of organic harmony and rythm. His EP >Long Time No See< reveals a soundscape of intimacy and evolving grooves. Reduction broadens its horizon. All sounds are carefully placed and a sustaining atmosphere keeps developing from song to song. Still each one is an individual scenery of its own. >Keys Of My Soul< delicatly moves through wide rooms while >Shake, Shake, Shake< leads closer to the core of groove. The backbeat driven >System< already possesses a pushing groove which mutualy connects it to >Long Time No See< with its warm pulsating baseline. Achim Maerz approach to house shows how much is possible if self-limitation leads to creativity.
