A key figure in the electronic dance scene in Cologne, Germany, David Hasert cues up a new release for BLOND:ISH’s ABRACADABRA label, and invites some close friends to collaborate with on the opulent ‘The Sky Is Crying’ single.  With previous releases for Dantze, Katermukke and the Like Records label, Hasert shapes an emotionally uplifting modern day classic, that includes a remix from Niconé.

“After working in many studio rooms without a view, I decided that I would no longer be producing music without a window in front of me.  There's a lot of things that inspire me, like movies, old records and especially just looking up at the sky.  We had a big flood here in Germany and it rained for days.  One day I decided to record the sounds of the thunder and the rain on my window.  My friend Francesco Mami, whom I met years ago at Burning Man, was there, and played some melodies on the piano, and from then on, the idea behind "The Sky Is Crying” grew. The lyrics are inspired by a Gary Coleman classic blues track.

For “Home”, I collaborated for the first time with my good friend Esther Silex.  Usually I mostly work alone, or with Frankie who is helping me shape my sound, but in this case Esther and myself decided to start a track from scratch.  I like the way the track flows and that it’s untypically not just working towards a drop or ‘a moment’. It just flows and flows…

The next release, scheduled for 24 January 2022, is the result of a long artistic reflection based on the dreams of Alexander Coetzee, alias LEEU, DJ and producer from Johannesburg, South Africa.

The album Dream Control is an introspective musical masterpiece about the universal mystery that every human being lives through, their dreams. To those moments when you cannot decide if it is infact a dream or reality and the freedom one feels when lucid dreaming. Divided into 3 chapters, this album approaches by a first EP the paradoxical dream, then by second EP the waking dream and finally by a complete reading through an album to be released on March 1, 2022.

For this 2nd day chapter, LEEU was surrounded by artists from South Africa including Lemonella, a poetess with a melancholy and acidulous tone, and Eric Volta, a multiinstrumentalist & producer from Berlin.

This album will be the subject of a double album vinyl release and a concert on Saturday, July 2, 2022 for the 15th edition of the Festival Week-end au bord de l'eau in Sierre, Switzerland.
