Michael Vater, better known in music circles as Phonique, has carved out a rich niche for himself in the crowded world of electronic music. Widely regarded as one of the nicest guys in the scene, Vater has come a long way from his humble beginnings in Cologne, fully establishing himself as both a father of the Berlin club scene and a much loved ambassador for house and electronic music all around the world. With way over 100 releases and his own boutique house label Ladies & Gentlemen, Phonique has taken his signature grooves all over the world - more than 50 countries at last count. 

With countless production and remix credits plus three full albums under his belt, 'Saudade (Best Of Phonique)' is a timely reminder of what makes this artist such a treasure. With so much material to get through it's a wonder he managed to keep it to 11 tracks. 

Long time collaborator Erlend Øye features twice as a guest vocalist - 'For the Time Being' and 'Casualties' both being essential reference points in Phonique's back catalogue. Originally released in 2005, 'For the Time Being' could be the blueprint for many of today's nu-disco producers, while Antonio Eudi and Bruno Be's Remix of 'Casualties' shares a similar, lush and rolling groove - both are classic Vater - melancholic and uplifting at the same time. 

Another landmark collaboration in Vater's discography was with Ian Whitelaw, whose sublime vocals feature on 'Our Time Our Chance' and 'You That I'm With'. Originally released on Phonique's first album 'Identification' in 2004, 'You That I'm With' is a gorgeous slice of electronic synth pop, while 'Our Time Our Chance' from 2010 is more focused on the deeper reaches of the dance floor, and was widely regarded as one of the tracks of that year. 

Elsewhere on 'Saudade', (Portuguese for a brooding kind of melancholy, and a suitable description of Vater’s signature sound), Phonique continues to display his passion for collaboration with talented vocalists. 'One Step 2010' and 'Feel What You Want' highlight the divine sound of Rebecca while 'Endless Love' showcases Louie Austen - whose 'Glamour Girl' is also included via Phonique's Original Version. His deft touch for creating affecting and beautiful electronic pop music with strong links to the dance floor is fully in evidence on every track, and non more so than his rework of 'Ornette's Crazy' - a huge hit in 2012 on Get Physical that still sounds as thrilling today as it did the day of release. 

Probably the most straight up dance floor track here is 'Divertimento' - a deep burner with slight Latin swing to it - no doubt a result of Phonique's strong links to the underground scene in Brazil.

DJ by night and producer in daytime, this 37 year old kid has always had the desire and hunger to be on the forefront when it comes to music. So it’s no wonder he eventual ended up in Music For Dreams.
For inspiration to his music he search obscure flea markets for weird and strange vinyl - anything with a crazy beat/sound can be used. Because of his friendship with DJ Kjeld Tolstrup who immediately saw Disse’s DJ potential and ability to rock a party, Disse presented a homemade demotrack to label honcho Kenneth Bager. A deal was done quickly and his first real release, the single “Egyptian Disco” on Music For Dreams, was a dream come true! The result was a 11 minute monster, a spaced out journey that will rock the floor in any club at any time and now an all time classic.                                       
And now DJ Disse is ready with his first album “When I’m Bored, I Change Colour”. Based around a mix of electronic sounds, loops, samples from reggae beats, balkan melodies and arabic rhythms, it  will for sure groove dancefloors, lounges and radio waves. Produced by himself in his homestudio with an impressive list of guests producer like Buda (Banzai Republic), Ben Horn, Jazz Box, Don’t Feed The Monkey and Kenneth Bager on the album..
DJ Disse even takes inspiration from classic rockmusic (Lou Reed, The Doors) and twist it with dub and bossa beats. A sound the world has needed for long time.
