With 'Trip to Sanity,' Berlin-based producer, DJ, live performer, and Stil vor Talent label head Oliver Koletzki presents a milestone in his 36-year long musical career and his 18-year tenure at the top of global electronic nightlife – his 10th studio album.

The album’s title, "Trip to Sanity’" – a reference to the classic German children’s story of the little dragon 'Tabaluga' – reflects Oliver's own path as a DJ within the world of club culture. But it also represents the appeal to an unbroken childlike curiosity as a producer, driven by the utopias of this parallel society. Naturally, Koletzki found his creative spark while performing on the stages of renowned festivals like Burning Man, Coachella, Garbicz, and Fusion, as well as in moments of peace and relaxation on meditative hikes and long beach walks in his second home of Cape Town.
 
In South Africa, Oliver wrote most of "Trip to Sanity" in the winter, then flashed out and finalised the tracks in his studio at Kreuzberg's Holzmarkt. Within the last 18 months a collection of complex and varied songs formed, which, typical for Oliver's collaborative approach, were often created in cooperation with musicians like techno-pop legend Fritz Kalkbrenner, Burning Man chance encounter Talmirage, scene friends Andhim, Hidden Empire, Oliver Klostermann and Niko Schwind, or the exceptional voices Natascha Polké, Malou, LOLY and Marlena Dae. The result is a rollercoaster ride through a diverse spectrum of dance music, effortlessly held together by Koletzki's unmistakable sound signature and his intrinsic sense for the exact tension between hedonistic dancefloor focus and poppy earworm impact. At the centre of it all shines a joie de vivre that runs like a thread through "Trip to Sanity": Playful, cheeky, imaginative, euphoric, a rainbow of genres and influences flow into each other, balanced by moments of reflection, melancholy or harshness.

Music opens up an unknown realm to people, a world that has nothing in common with the external world of the senses that surrounds them and in which they leave behind all certain feelings in order to surrender to an inexpressible desire.

It is this desire that Deep Ändi tries to express in his single "Niemegk." Music tells stories, but individual sounds can also become stories in themselves, uniting several plots in one emotion and bringing them together again at the end.

This love of sound design is taken up by the two great remixes and is processed in different ways. bawab & Sydka impressively strip back to the essentials and bring the sound of "Niemegk" to the dancefloor with the unmistakable groove for which the two are known.

Iorie picks up on the mystical elements of the original and spins the story further, which takes place on the edge of the distinction between fantasy and reality. As always, Iorie takes you on a journey that offers plenty of room for imagination through attention to detail.
