Echo

Finally, you might think, and right on time for the open-air season. Now, two years after „Syvsover“, the Berlin-based Dane, Jesper Ryom, is ready with his latest release „The Two Of Us“ – providing us with the perfect soundtrack for the hot days and the warm nights. Radiating euphoria with each bassline and elegantly bridging house and pop, these four tracks will both make you break out in sweat and put a smile upon your face.
Tied together with a hypnotically energetic feel, each track is a journey into the timeless depths of Jesper Ryom’s stylistically confident sounds. And while layers of intricate atmosphere continuously is added on to each beat, Ryom doesn’t forget the floor for a single second. The waiting has finally paid off and these four tunes are sure to enrichen the summer vibe, whether spent partying or basking by a lake.

1. The Two Of Us
Title track and opener "The Two Of Us" perfectly demonstrates Jesper Ryom's penchant for layered sampling combined with modern elements, as the synth bassline and direct groove of the drums provide the backdrop for this funky yet subtly melancholic track.


2. Trivia
"Trivia" confidently ups the energy level and directly targets the floor. With reverberating brass samples, unapologetic arpeggios and dusty vocals, its simple message is one of movement and smiles.


3. Ada
Vocal-driven "Ada" is decidedly melodic and contemplative while still balancing these qualities with a consistent groove. While the lyrically enigmatic vocal sample drives the verse, the chorus is dominated by both melancholic 80s chords and an arpeggiated lead.

4. Superluminal
The funky guitar, subdued percussion and pulsating beat of "Superluminal" takes you by the hand and pulls you onto the dance floor. As the grooving piano is slowly unveiled amidst 707 claps and tambourine hits there is no doubt about the potential of this tune.

It’s the 4th of July
And I feel like I'm gonna fly so high

Cause I know my spirit’s bright
So why is everyone trying to hide tonight?

Don't dance
Don't party alone
Don't dance, or party alone
Cause you know
You go left and maybe you're right
But either way, you're a lover tonight

Baby, I can see it
Why do we have to give a shit
When we know
Either you're White or Black
The color don't match
Unless you got the green in the hat

And I wish, I could
Afford all the things
The rich knew that I'd love

Just memorize the youth salvation
No one cares unless you're Caucasian

Don't dance
Don't party alone
Don't dance, or party alone
Cause you know
You go left and maybe you're right
But either way, you're a lover tonight
[^ Repeat ^]

I never wanted to care so much
About a bunch of old people, who really don't give a fuck

Cause hey, it's all the same
When you're running an old folks' home
You gotta keep the same

Don't dance
Don't party alone
Don't dance, or party alone
Cause you know
You go left and maybe you're right
But either way, you're a lover tonight

Don't Party Alone

Fork in The Path

Well well,
Here we are again
The truth is not so deep

Grey and red
All up in your head
The truth is not so deep

Angel and a demon
Rolled into one
Expectations

You treat me like an animal
I treat you like a harlequin
Theres no respect

It’s not a match
Theres no time to work things out
Fork in the path
I go my own way

But you forgot that line

Follow your heart
That path might lead you astray
Expectations

If it aint today 
What will it be tomorrow
Are you the one?

It’s not a match
Theres no time to work things out
Fork in the path
I go my own way

Infatuated lifted the terms
Well we did it
We made something 
Out of nothing
We made something
It was everything 

Fork in the path

Neneh Cherry + The Thing - Dream Baby Dream (Four Tet remix)

What do you know about Denmark? Think about it: hotdogs, licorice, beer, and a definite taste for alcohol. Vikings, Hamlet and Lego. Nor must we forget Hans Christian Andersen, Trentemøller and Junior Senior. So did we leave anything out? But of course we did; Jesper Ryom! This young Dane has already made a far-reaching impression with his "Nature Boy EP" on La Fleur’s label Power Plant Records, and recently his talent could also be heard on his remix of Marian’s "Passengers" on their remix album of “Only Out Hearts to Lose”. And now we are proud to present four new tracks on the digital Freude-Am-Tanzen sister label FATzig.

Jesper’s music is proof that house can be clever and still danceable, emotional and still cool. Again and again he mixes jazzy samples with self-played instruments and places these on a groovy four/four base to his own refined and not too heady vision of house. He’s got both legs in the club, and his mind on cloud nine. Guitar riffs drenched in reverb, vocals full of melancholy and harmonies for at least two eternities. Music that doesn't look at pop as a curse word, loves jazz and breathes dub. Direct from Copenhagen over Jena and out throughout the world. The open-air season can come right on by – and the next Denmark vacation too!

 Was weiß man eigentlich über Dänemark? Mal überlegen: Hot-Dogs, Lakritze, Bier und überhaupt viel Alkohol. Wikinger, Hamlet, Lebenslust und Lego. Dann noch Hans Christian Andersen, Trentemøller oder Junior Senior. Was vergessen? Natürlich: Jesper Ryom! Der junge Däne hinterließ bereits mit seiner "Nature Boy EP" auf La Fleurs Label Power Plant Records mächtig Eindruck, veredelte zuletzt Marians "Passengers" für deren Remixkollektion des Only Our Hearts To Lose-Albums und legt nun endlich mit gleich vier neuen Tracks auf dem digitalen Freude-Am-Tanzen-Schwesterlabel FATzig nach.


Jespers Musik ist der beste Beweis dafür, dass House zugleich tanzbar und clever, emotional und cool sein kann. Immer wieder mischt er jazzige Samples mit selbsteingespielten Instrumenten und verschraubt diese auf einem groovenden Vierviertelfundament zu seiner ganz eigenen, raffinierten, aber nie zu verkopften Vision von House. It's a body thing, noch immer! Mit beiden Beinen im Club, im Kopf auf Wolke Sieben. Gitarren-Riffs, die den Sonnenaufgang heraufbeschwören, Vocals voller Melancholie und Harmonien für mindestens zwei Ewigkeiten. Musik, die Pop nicht als Schimpfwort versteht, Jazz liebt und Dub atmet. Direkt aus Kopenhagen über Jena hinaus in die Welt. Die Open-Air-Saison kann kommen - und der nächste Dänemark-Urlaub gerne auch!
