Schneeweiss Presented by Oliver Koletzki: a collaboration of neighbours. 

Over the years, Oliver Koletzki has continuously cited Berlin as a point of reference and, more importantly, a source of inspiration. Two of his albums – Großstadtmärchen and Großstadtmärchen 2 – have been a direct ode to the capital. Friedrichshain, one of Berlin’s vibrant districts, has always held a special place in Oliver’s heat. This is where he started out when he first moved to the city, and this is where he lives now. Moreover, the Stil vor Talent HQ is situated in the centre of the bustling Kiez. 

So is Schneeweiss, one of Friedrichhain’s best and most loved restaurants. Over the course of eight years, the stylish eatery has impressed many a Berlin foodie with its contemporary take on alpine cuisine and attention to detail. Music is part of the experience here, which is no surprise due to one of the owners’ extensive background in Berlin’s club scene of the early days. Pairing striking award-winning interior design with a homely laid-back atmosphere, Schneeweiss welcomes everyone with open arms: Kiez locals and celebrities, students and businessmen, hipsters and families – all can be found here, Oliver Koletzki among them. 

Thus, after many a late-night label dinner an idea slowly formed. Why not join forces and collaborate on a compilation that represents both, Oliver Koletzki’s and Schneeweiss’ taste? Compiled specifically with the restaurant in mind, SVT108 convinces as a tasty treat for the music connoisseur and a musical treat for the culinary aficionado. 

Isolée’s stunning ‘Allowance’ opens the compilation on a bittersweet note, as melancholic autotune harmonies and a melodious loop glide over a cosy bass bed. Next, Serge Erège’s soulful voice, set against a backdrop of sunny synth stabs provided by Niko Schwind and Dunwich, leads into ‘From the Inside’ by Chasing Kurt. Here, a decisive bass-line supports the track’s incredibly emotive, velveteen vocals, making for an early highlight. The piano keys on Oliver Koletzki’s remix of ‘Once Again’ push things forward into ‘Love Lines’ by Artenvielfalt, the perfect summer track. 

After the compilation peaks in Jonas Mantey’s beautifully epic ‘Sie ist Schön’, Oliver Koletzki’s ‘Bring Me Home’ enchants with guitar licks and a swaying groove. Danish duo Ost & Kjex provides feel-good vibes on their poppy ‘Indie’ to highly addictive results. Next, Andhim reinterpret HVOB’s ‘Always like this’, focussing on metallic percussion and a whole lot of melody, while former Bar 25 resident Dirty Doering makes you dream aided by Spanish guitars. Lastly, Stimming’s wonky ‘Window Shopping’ seamless flows into Oliver Koletzki & Fran’s jazzy classic ‘I Might’. 

No doubt, this is just the beginning of a long-lastig collaboration: Bon Appétit. 


SVT108 – Teenage Mutants – Dignity [Snippet]

‘Things I Do’, Edu Imbernon’s new EP on Stil vor Talent, once again demonstrates what makes the charming Spaniard so unique – there’s always an air of mysticism and romance running through his floor-ready tracks. Partly due to a strong understanding of atmospherics and effects, partly down to a knack for working with great vocal talents. Like on ‘Mystery Inside’, Sutja Gutierrez lends his voice to ‘Things I Do’, which bedazzles as it journeys through an arrangement of floating pads, spherical echoes and delayed synths. 

Next to the original version, Teenage Mutants delivers an excellent remix that focuses on Gutierrez’ vocals whilst building a low-slung house framework of driving high-hats, bittersweet melodies and a forceful bass line around it. Lastly, Los Suruba take you on a real trip as they reduce ‘Things I Do’ to a minimalist afterhours burner composed of eerie bleeps and acidic licks.

Calling Michael Mayer one of the most important people currently active in the electronic music industry would be far from a stretch. He's the co-founder of Kompakt, one of the biggest record labels and distribution agencies in the world (being home to over 50 independent record labels). Besides that, he's a very busy DJ and also a more than prolific producer, whose total number of remixes has surpassed the 140 mark already for instance.

To be able to be active and competent in so many fields, he maintains a tight and very regular schedule. We spoke to him about that, Amsterdam Dance Event and his family life and you can read all about that in the latest issue of DJ Mag NL. In the meantime, enjoy this podcast and get your head into weekend mode. - C.

This podcast is a cut from Michael's set at VOLTT 2014 in Amsterdam. You can read the full DJMag-interview here:

SEKOIA Podcast #027 - Michael Mayer

Dorst Oct.2014

Conny  Wolf’s podcast for Getting Deeper is one of those sets that have a strong earthy touch to them. Conny has dug deeper into inexplicable human emotions and represented them by chosing tracks with warm, mature vocals and deep beats. This is a set you would love to listen during a late night/early morning drive in a big city. It’s easy to get lost into… just as you would easily get lost in a big city (existentially) on late nights… but oddly, there is no where else you would rather be.

He has chosen tracks with a calm, liquidy surface and tied them together with seamless transitions in such a way that the entire set rightfully forms a beautiful space of its own. It has a transient purity to it that is both melodic and hypnotic. The end result is a gorgeous 1 hour piece that begins with sensual vocals and gradually blooms into the dark, timeless world of melodic deep tech.

I love vocals that have a mysterious and intense personality. I cherish them especially because it’s difficult to capture vocals with depth in electronic music without them sounding overly dark. There is something very sensual and real about them. And they sound divine when they are enveloped in cosmic, spaced out sounds.

And so, thank you Conny for giving us a set that captures something we hold very close to our hearts! Beautifully mixed and beautifully delivered <3

A brandnew mix by Kompakt staple Shumi, originally recorded for Kasper Bjorke's show "4/4" on Danish national radio. Heavily featured among the selection's luminaries are our very own Pachanga Boys aka Superpitcher and Rebolledo, delivering a timeless classic with "Time" (no pun intended) and remixing Slove's eerily beautiful "Flash" not once but twice.
