Gregor Tresher New

Artist: Gregor Tresher
Title: Quiet Distortion
Label: Break New Soil
Cat-Nr.: BNSCD004
Release: May, 2016
Formats: CD, Vinyl, Digital

With his new artist album “Quiet Distortion” ready for release this summer, Gregor Tresher once again sets sail to break new soil, proving why he is considered to be one of the most consistent artists in the universe of Techno music. “About A Good Place”, “Neon”, “A Thousand Nights”, “Full Range Madness” or his recent “Goliath” amongst many others - the list of Tresher's tracks that have turned into modern classics is more than impressive.

Now, with this new installment of 12 tracks and once again accompanied by forward-thinking artwork by long-time collaborating 3D-artist Dennis Richter, it seems that Gregor managed to bridge the gap to his early releases by transforming their original, uncompromising sound into the here and now. Gregor puts it this way: “I am aiming to find the right balance in-between the vibe of some of my early music and the kind of modern Techno I like to play as a DJ, but at the same time I do not want to stand still but evolve as a musician. The goal I try to reach is to create something that will hopefully stand the test of time.“ 

After the haunting opening piece “Numb”, it´s “Surrender” and “Tyrant” that instantly set the tone for what we consider to be Tresher´s most complete piece of work to date. And when the title track “Quiet Distortion” kicks off, people will instantly recognize that Midas-touch that made Gregor´s sound a quality trademark in the world of electronic music.

There are of course tracks that will find their place in playlists by Gregor´s DJ-colleagues: The rumbling “Depend“ that´s also been a staple in Gregor´s own sets over the past months, “Consistency“, which finds its niche in-between the melodic openers and a more tough Dancefloor-approach or the menacing “The Kraken“, that reminds of Tresher´s work on Adam Beyer´s seminal Drumcode label. With “Decades”, we get a glimpse of Gregor´s Sniper Mode project, which he buried at a time when real Electro lost its name to a different genre of music. And then of course there´s the mighty “Goliath“ - the only previously released track on the album: Pretty much everyone who has spent a night on a dance floor of a Techno club in the past year will recognize it, as it has been championed by so many.

Accompanying the release, Gregor embarks on another extensive album tour spanning over six months. It will include a mixture of exclusive live performances as well as DJ-gigs kicking off at the end of May and touching down on some of the most prolific music festivals and clubs around the world.

DJ WolleXDP exploring new paths?

“ #DeepTechno ”? “ #HypnoticTech ”? “ #DarkTrance ”? – whatever it is. I honestly have no idea whether this already qualifies as its own genre (maybe some of you do?), and as many of you know, I’ve never cared much for those kinds of labels anyway.

Here’s the backstory: a few weeks ago, I went to #Sisyphos with my girlfriend to finally experience my dear DJ dude #OliverHuntemann live again – someone I deeply admire. For me, Oliver is one of the most consistently reliable DJs when it comes to delivering exactly the kind of journey I love creating myself behind the decks: a beautiful trip where I can dissolve entirely into (collective) trance.

He didn’t disappoint.
But what struck me most was how he made me experience the #Hammerhalle in a completely new way.
I was genuinely blown away.
The last time I heard him play was at “#BuchtderTräumer” in the summer. I never would have imagined that he could bring that very special vibe of his into the Hammerhalle.
Wow – so that kind of thing really can happen here too?

Now, if you think I simply tried to imitate Oliver – then you don’t know me.
And more importantly, anyone who truly knows us both would understand that we have very different views on what music is – or can be.
Naturally, my track selection and my set dramaturgy are completely different from his.

But maybe what connects us isn’t something you hear – maybe it’s something you feel, from the dancefloor perspective?
For me, it’s always about energy. About depth. About emotion. And sometimes, it’s about that very specific calmness that certain tracks need to really shine.

But enough introduction.

Of course, this mix is still 100% #WolleXDP.
And yet – it’s different.
So different, in fact, that for me it marks something like a milestone.
I’ve been working on this kind of sound in my head for quite some time now.
And on Tuesday morning at Sisyphos, I finally got the chance to try it out – and to play all those tracks I’ve been collecting for years just for myself. Tracks I love – but never had the right context to actually play in public.

Special shout-out to the #lightingoperator – I’m almost certain they really felt the music.
The lighting matched the vibe perfectly and played a big part in what happened that morning.
What a joy!

Have a listen – maybe you can hear it after all?

Die Aufnahme entstand am 27.06. zwischen 20:00 und 22:00 Uhr auf der Turmbühne des Fusion Festivals in Lärz. Danke an Hannah Hermann für die Aufnahme! Da so viele von Euch nach dem Set gefragt haben, lade ich es hier hoch - auch wenn nichts den zauberhaften Moment mit über zwanzigtausend friedlich feiernden Menschen auf den Wiesen und den Hügeln ersetzen kann. Solche Erinnerungen bleiben für immer und werden ewig in uns leuchten, uns erfreuen, uns erhellen.

Nach 17-jähriger Abwesenheit war es ganz wunderbar, diesen so wertvollen Ort der Utopie wiederzuerleben. Ein Ort, an dem Menschen wieder wirklich mit sich und ihren Mitmenschen in Resonanz treten. Ein Ort, an dem aus einer egozentrierten Umwelt wieder eine Mitwelt entstehen kann. Ein Ort, an dem getanzt und das Leben zelebriert wird – nicht aus Trotz, sondern als Antwort. Ein Ort, an dem verstanden wird, dass kollektives Feiern kein sinnloser, hedonistischer Eskapismus ist, sondern der soziale Klebstoff unserer Gesellschaft. Ein Ort, an dem nicht geurteilt und verurteilt wird, an dem man versteht, wie wichtig Vielfalt ist und dass sie ein uraltes Grundprinzip zum Erhalt des Lebens ist. Ich habe mich hier sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt und werde wiederkommen, wahrscheinlich schneller als in 17 Jahren.

Alles Liebe, Dominik

Where Is My Mind? (2007 Remaster)

In the trend-driven universe of electronic dance music, Gregor Tresher is the rare artist who transcends such cycles. His secret? A relentless focus on melody and timbre, timeless musical elements that other producers often undervalue. Just as a painting or a photograph appears to move if one stares at it long enough, close listening to the stratified grooves and melodies in Tresher's music reveals an organic universe of shifting sound.
