Having just returned from Gottwood festival, the duo has completed their newest meticulous crafted recording for Traum. It has been a whole year since their last release on Traum, with a lot of touring to remote parts of the world and building up their new studio, so we expect people to be looking forward to their newest invention. Microtrauma have been a Traum label stalwart since March 2011 with their "Colorblind EP" and the "Olivenkernkomplex EP" maintains both the charm and expert craftsmanship of its predecessors and even adds some new striking perspectives.

"Olivia" starts rather simplistic as a dramatic tale and evokes images of early Plastikman trax. Its machine nature in the course of the track swells with organic respiration and makes it a sensuous piece of music that never boils over but simmers on the surface creating a kinetic catchiness par excellence. This is not only a great opener of the track but a very fine blend of stripped rhythms and synth pads. Microtrauma’s strength is the fine balance they create through the knowledge of playing live for years now. Like so many of their tracks in the past also this track has cosmic energy going.

In 1995 simple tracker software got the interest of the two friends Daniel and Ricardo. Thus, they decided to produce a few tracks.
Both shared a common passion for all sorts of different musical styles, which made their early productions very diverse.
Through the many influences of artists from New Order and Depeche Mode to Massive Attack, The Prodigy, Moby and the various techno disciples
of this multi-faceted time, the two of them produced everything they enjoy, be it trip hop, electronica, breaks or techno.

However, in 1999 the two of them went separate ways for reasons of diverging careers.
They quickly lost touch to each other until the contact ceased completely. Yet, the two of them still wished to produce music.
This is why both of them kept working with synthesizers, music software and studio technology creating their own tracks.

In 2003, it was coincidence that brought them back together.
The two friends met again at a small local electro party and soon realised that they still shared the same interest for electronic music as they had four years earlier.
After a few sessions in their domestic living room studios they decided to make more of their hobby and, thus, started renting their first studio in 2005.
Microtrauma was born.

In 2007, Microtrauma had its first release “Wake up“ on the Elected Tunes label. Their first own release “Collar EP” soon was to follow.
Microtrauma has developed its own style from almost ten years of working and tinkering as well as its many influences: melodic, dark, technoid and minimal.
