To those who are interested or involved in the music industry in Germany, Werd is a person you already know. If not personally, you know him from his work as musical director for acts like Sido, Amewu, Chefket, Adiam or Suff Daddy. You have seen him performing on television as percussionist and dj for The Voice of Germany or you have witnessed him on stage with Joy Denalane, Max Herre, Grace Ritch, Yarah Bravo, Bajka and countless other artists. What you might not have known is that since 10 years Werd has been producing and releasing his own music with his group turned label, Long Lost Relative. 

On November 11th, Long Lost Relative will finally be sharing Werd´s first solo album "The Path" with the world. What he describes as a "melancholic melodic instrumental hip hop album" is a very personal and private insight into the emotional world of an artist who usually plays a background role in the German music scene. Produced over a span of 2 years, The Path is a musical diary in which Werd shares with us a variety of experience ranging from hopelessness and heartbreak to inner peace and overwhelming joy. The Swiss artist C-Line, who intimately shared these experiences with Werd, completed the project with a beautiful visual representation of The Path.

Musically, The Path is built around a core of analog instruments; Fender Rhodes, Moog Prodigy and many eastern percussion instruments lay the foundation upon which Werd builds his songs. Explicitly avoiding the use of samples (with the exception of one song, Serpentine), Werd exposes details of The Path with each instrument he plays, his hands telling us the timeless story of struggle and redemption, separation and unity. 

The songs and artwork, combined with 3 music videos made by Keep Yah Joy of Audiopharmacy, give the audience a peak behind the curtain of the creative process and personal struggles of this Berlin based producer. The dark mood of the album reflects the overcast, grey atmosphere of the city Werd calls home. There is so much beauty to be seen in the darkness, and Werd is determined to share that with anyone and everyone who is open to listen.

Sun In Helsinki

I made this mix in celebration of two things. First is the third anniversary of Oakland's 45 Sessions, where I have been a resident since the beginning and where Rhettmatic and Shortkut (Beat Junkies) are coming to play this month. Second is my debut at LA's Blazing 45s with Rich Medina.

The mix is all about moving your feet and dancing. No quick mixes or scratch tricks going on here, just 100 percent booty shaking sweet soul jams.
