Efdemin aka Phillip Sollmann (dial)

Depuis ses débuts avec l’album « Joni » en 2001, Phillip Sollmann développe son projet Efdemin sur l'excellent label DIAL (carsten jones, lawrence, pantha du prince, pigon)

« Bergwein » (Dial 30) est devenu un tube de l’été en 2006 en Allemagne.
depuis, Efdemin a depuis déménagé à Berlin, où il est rapidement devenu résident du fameux club Panoramabar. Il joue également régulièrement avec son ami RNDM au Cityfox de Zurich. Ses remixes et titres pour d’autres labels tels que Liebe*Detail, Curle, Pokerflat, Ladomat, District of Corruption se sont fait remarqués par nombre de Djs dont Laurent Garnier et Steve Bug. 2006 a été pour lui une année décisive et pleine de succès, 2007 sera donc l’année de la confirmation. Les dix titres de son nouvel album varient du minimalisme expérimental à la deep house. Ne manquez pas Efdemin s’il passe près de chez vous, il figure parmi les DJs qui valent le détour…

someone else - pen caps and colored pencils


someone else
pen caps and colored pencils

[foundsound-14] double vinyl
[foundsound-cd01] cd

release date: late may 2007

following several acclaimed eps, philadelphia's someone else (sean o'neal) dropped the first two releases on his own foundsound label in 2004. once his tracks became heavily played by the international trendsetting djs we love so much, someone else turned himself into a producing machine and pumped out a countless array of tracks that incorporate his unique sound design -- and with so many remixes under his belt, one might say he's the armand van helden of the minimal scene. several of his tracks and remixes have been featured on mix-cds by djs like richie hawtin, marco carola, steve bug, adam beyer, frank lorber and many others.

we now give you pen caps and colored pencils -- the debut album for both someone else as well as foundsound. the 12-tracker offers a more developed side of someone else. and whether it's mumbling, chanting or downright singing, his own voice is often disfigured and sparsely scattered throughout the album. tracks like "play it kershaw" and "threadbare snare" offer a more stripped-down, tracky and dj-friendly side of his goofball minimalism. "pooty call" is a dark and moving clickhouse gut-stretcher. "funky fromage" and "mi lápiz es amarillo" offer an electro side to the witty frolic. and ditties like "family unties" and "oh sean" (both cd only) dive deep into submerged dubby-ness and laid-back psychedelia.
on pen caps and colored pencils, someone else finally brings his unique, organic, sampladelic style to cd for all electronic music fans, whether they're shaking their booty in a club or listening at home.

Extrawelt : doch doch remixes (traum)




TRAUM V85 Extrawelt - Remixes Pt1 / Jeff Samuel & Larsson
Part one features on its a-side a remix by Jeff Samuel, one of Extrawelt big favourite producers. Jeff has taken Extrawelts track to a minimal jacking groove, the style he is famous for. He gently takes in footage from the monumental track "Doch Doch" to maintain a lean and funky drive, keeping it bouncy and nice. The flipside comes by Larsson. His remix brings together Detroit and trance which result in some fine spaced out moments making the connection to "Doch Doch" when he brings in the bassline!
Release date: 07.May.2007

TRAUM V86 Extrawelt - Remixes Pt2 / Moonbeam & Patrick Zigo
Part two of the "Doch Doch" remixes features remixes by Moonbeam and Patrick Zigon. Moonbeams "Doch Doch" remix is a good deal more stripped down and rhythmical than their remix of Minilogues “Seconds“, but still comes with a very powerful production. The low key and hypnotic mix makes little changes but introduces picturesque melodies. Patrick Zigons new production comes with a wonderful slack minimal groover, with an emphasis on a swing beat, jacking super cool underneath the surface.
Release date: 07.May.2007
