really happy to listen some new music from you !!! Nice track, i'm feeling back home @georglevin !!!

'When reading the comments under Georg Levin’s songs and videos you immediately sense a certain longing for new output. There is always someone wishing for a comeback of the producer and songwriter. For good reason: after all, Georg didn’t release any music under his name for over 10 years. This is almost surprising as he has been an integral part of Berlin’s music scene since the beginning of the 2000s and had significant impact reaching far beyond the local musical landscape in the course of the decade.

Georg grew up near Hamburg, Germany, playing keys and saxophone in local bands. Despite his ambitions to become a songwriter/producer he didn’t feel ready at the time so he studied communications at Goldsmiths College in London, had different jobs at film production companies and at MTV. He finally becomes serious with music after meeting DJ Dixon who co-produces his first single 'When I’m With You' and the house classic '(I got) Somebody New' in 2002. Several remixes and collaborations with artists like Masters At Work, Jazzanova, Âme, Robert Owens, Felix Buxton from Basement Jaxx or Peter Kruder from Kruder & Dorfmeister follow as well as the LPs 'Can’t Hold Back' (2003 Sonar Kollektiv), 'Take It Personal' (2007 Four Music) under his and Dixon’s 'Wahoo' moniker and 'Everything Must Change' (2010 BBE).

It gets quiet around Georg Levin in the following years. Still playing the occasional gig or festival around Europe with his live band, he focusses on his music production company playdis.tv . In 2020 he finally releases the singles 'Echoes' and 'Fall into a dream' that quickly reach millions of streams and which give an indication to where he now continues with 'It Was Fun For A While'.

You can find Georg’s music filed under Electro, Soul, Pop or House at the record shop. His music has been described as 'Blue Eyed Soul', 'Future Soul' or even 'Yacht Rock'. But in the end of the day, his music is not about recreating the past .

When listening to 'It Was Fun For A While', you hear references to the early 80s - a time of upheaval where RnB, Disco and New Wave had a brief episode together - but instead of entering the time machine back to that era, both music and lyrics play with a rather abstract nostalgia. An attempt to capture a fleeting but intense feeling, a longing to an unlived past, a fading memory that made it to the here and now. It is, after all, a modern song.

With an infectious groove, elegantly crafted production plus Georg’s smooth vocals supported by Simonne Jones and Amely, „It Was Fun For A While“ is that kind of song that you want to hear in the car, at home and on the dance floor.

Check out the Remixes by Tim Paris (already playlisted by Tim Sweeney for Apple Music.) Amberoom (aka Manuel Tur, Ramin Nouyan & Adrian Hoffmann) & Eitan Reiter.'
