DOUBT004 // @oh_why - Variations LP

doubt records is delighted to present the debut album of berlin based electronic artist O/Y, written in winter of 2021 and 2022 

'there is a place in the creative process that asks you for suspense. for recognition rather than imposition. where, if you move very carefully, you may become an agent for the music to create itself. to make itself known. this piece is an illustration of exactly that: a feeling of knowing something, or someone deeply, without having ever met them before. a moment of perfect recognition.'

Namaskar beauties!

Summer has faded once again, and here we are: Looking for the light.
A light, that has continually grown bolder and brighter is the primate lover and drum kit destroyer O/Y.

Intrigued by his ever evolving analogue sound and also because he's somewhat of a regular appearance in our ears and eyes, we decided to get him on board for his and our second 12" experiment: Turtles.

O/Y is getting around quite a bit, performing his live shows on festivals around this blue marble. Now your friendly neighborhood DJ can put more of his productions into the soundtrack of your next night out.
This is the sound you will be stumbling across dance floors to this coming winter. And probably summer still. Accompanied by a Hip-Hop-ish remix, crafted by the talented Luca Musto and the digital bonus "Der Kleine Mann" as well as a Xique-Xique remix of this beauty.

And oh: did we mention?

You can also add it to your record collection, as it is quite the collectible.
Black and blue marbled vinyl, hand numbered and finished with a beautiful artwork made by his wife Amal. Strong family stuff.

Now enjoy your new favourite Drosssel EP!

O/Y — Dogwalk

We've been hoarding some undiscovered gems, odd ones out and singles that didn't fit anywhere else through the years and decided to bundle them on a series of compilations. Not pinned down to one genre they explore in more ways than just tempo. We want to give a platform to both old and new family members bringing love to your hard disc. No need for anything that punches you in the face... Well.. Maybe occasionally. Our aim is to make your heart bleed, not your nose.

Pfandtastisch! Eine riesige Meute Soundpirat*innen hat sich dazu bereit erklärt, feine Musik für den vierten und bisher größten Kopfüber Sampler zu produzieren.

Dieses Mal geht es nicht um die Schiffe der Seawatch, die wir mit dem letzten Solisampler unterstützt haben. Unser eigenes Schiff schwankt, angesichts der aktuellen Lage und steht stillgelegt in seinem Heimathafen. Daher haben wir uns entschlossen, Freund*innen und Crewmitglieder*innen zum Produzieren zu animieren und diese Soundsammlung dann als Soli Sampler für einen humanen Einklaufspreis auf Bandcamp zu stellen. Jegliche Einnahmen werden dazu genutzt, die monatliche Miete für unser Verwirrtshaus zu sichern!

Wir freuen uns auf eure Unterstützung, um unser Projekt in Zeiten wie diesen am Laufen zu halten.
In Zukunft werden alle Sampler wieder auf Spendenbasis sein!

Großes Schmatzerl an alle die geholfen haben, dieses auserlesene Stück Musikgeschichte mit mehr als 20 Künstler*innen zusammen zu schreiben…

Und jetzt: Viel Spaß beim Lauschen!

Pawn-tastic! A huge mob of sound pirates* has agreed to produce fine music for the fourth and so far biggest Kopfüber sampler.

This time it's not about the Seawatch ships we supported with the last soli sampler. Our own ship is wavering, given the current situation and stands idle in its home port. Therefore we decided to encourage friends and crew members to produce and then put the collected sounds on Bandcamp as a soli-sampler for a humane price. Any income will be used to secure the monthly rent for our Verwirrtshaus!

We are looking forward to your support to keep our project running in times like these. Future samplers will be free downloads again!

A big kiss to all who helped to write this exquisite piece of music history together with more than 20 artists*...

And now: Have fun listening!

Liebst,
Eure Kopfübers!

ki ya tori - tojiru feat. sarah wild

O/Y (pronounce "Oh Why", a.k.a. Jakob Ahrends), master of his own signature sound and virtuoso in minimal funk lands his latest 4 track explorations on Moodfamily. Playful melancholy weaved in shuffled downbeats and shifting grooves takes you on a journey in musical expertise. Let the Prophet preach, not with words but with waves.

The Prophet

O/Y - The Prophet

O/Y (pronounce "Oh Why", a.k.a. Jakob Ahrends), master of his signature sound and virtuoso in minimal funk, lands on Moodfamily with his latest 4 track explorations. In expert fashion, he manages - unlike anyone else - to create playful melancholy weaved into shuffled downbeats and synth-bending landscapes. As a classical trained drummer, he clearly knows how to construct devastatingly efficient grooves as he stretches your understanding of how dance music should sound. He just took the gloves off. We already took our shoes off. All that remains, is quite simply to take our hats off to you too, O/Y.

Salam Habibis!

Since we all coexist on this planet — some closer to, some farther away from each other — we know how you have been feeling this past year.
Mood swings happen on a daily basis. Uncertainty is sitting deeply in all of us. What is happening? Where will this lead? Is there an end in sight?

We're no psychics either, but in times like these something everyone should do is to keep the spirits up for themselves and those around them.
And so we set out and forged something, that's rather different from our usual output, but yet wholesome and our equivalent of a bag of warm and loving hugs. Without the fear of getting infected with some kind of virus of course.

A new story in our ever growing book of slowness is coming to fruition and now is the time to present its first chapter.

Please welcome to the stage our first box of 𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒔.

A nice and cozy selection of jazzy / smooth / hip-hop infused beats, crafted by people you might or might not have anticipated on such an endeavor.
Classic drosssel... Always up for surprise!

And while we're happy to be hosting such a nice bunch of talents, we'd love to encourage all those hip hop happy women / queers / POCs behind their beat machines to send us their demos, so the next bouquet can be as colorful it should be! (our inbox is "horst@drosssel.de")

And now turn the little knob on your amplifier that says "bass" to the right, get a kettle of your favourite tea going, light your preferred herbs and enjoy this selection of high class low fidelity music.

Yours lovingly,

Drosssel
