... to Disco (and beyond)

Originated from an old track trying out some new Synths (Pigments) and experimenting with some nice vocal samples (the great Francesca Genco from Voices of Gaia), this evolved a little bit over the years and ended up in this tiny track :).

Pigments Of Gaia (Original Mix)

Some weeks ago, I was in a slightly faster mood when making music (maybe influenced by some music brought to me by @sahrabass ;))
Originating from an older track with a more oriental theme, this track is the fastest track I did for a while - and maybe even the most "danciest". 

Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks to the whole rec.de-massive for supporting me in the process <3

Slow Ravers (Original Mix)

took a rocket from Lärz and went all up to discover the funky planet of Ulaea. Hope you have a good flight with this new track :)
The german spaceship vocals are sampled from an old german radio play LP and also contributed to the name of the track.

Shoutouts to @djturak and @theogramal for giving good input in arrangement and mixing.

This version is mastered at home by myself, maybe I'll get a proper external mastering soon :)

Ulǣa(Original Mix)

HQ-Free-DL: https://reyneke.bandcamp.com/track/baba-yetu-reyneke-reinterpretation

Even though I do not believe in god, the original track touches my heart and soul for so many years since I started playing "Civilization IV" - the game for which this track was composed as an intro song. 

The foundation of this edit is based on the recording of Christopher Tin with the Soweto Gospel Choir (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJiHDmyhE1A). Many thanks for making such a great music!

I was trying to make an edit/reinterpretation for some years now, but never really came to an end - so I decided that I just release the current state.

A proper free download on bandcamp will follow soon, the "mastering" is more like a basic "make it louder"-thing at the moment. Maybe I take even some more time for some details and better mixing, but I hope you can already enjoy this version!

Hugs and kisses to my whole family, my girlfriend, my friends and the whole world.

[FREE DL] Baba Yetu (Reyneke Reinterpretation)

Always be careful if you are walking in the garden of giants - you never know If their feet will miss you the next time!

This track is partly the first version of what became my track "Ulaea", so they share some features - but all in all I thing they are different enough to live side by side!
First time one of my track is accompanied by a an uplifting 138bpm trance remix from Chris R (https://soundcloud.com/the-soundspot)

"Mastering" is done by myself in the box again - I hope did not squash the material too much (If you have that feeling, please drop me a line so I can fix this).

Thanks to @theogramal, Chris R and @djturak for giving me some valuable feedback!

Im Garten der Giganten (Original Mix)

If you like this stuff: booking@reyneke.eu ;)

Happy Easter! This is my unedited, imperfect, raw and way too long recording for my first "real" solo-gig since 2019 which took place at the lovely PURPUR-Party from @we-kuyen on friday the  08.04.2022 in the Musikbrauerei Berlin! 

Unfortunately, I did not hit the record button, so this recording should give a little insight how things went on that night! Thanks everybody for showing up, having a good time and dance to my music (and the greeeeat music of the other artists @judith-ahrends @monkymanmusic @lisathaens @marcosmeza - I enjoyed all of them!). Thanks to @we-kuyen for inviting me, you lovely bunch of people <3, thanks to @sahrabass for her steady support :-*

PS. As soon as I have a better recording, this track maybe will magically disappear from soundcloud ^^

reyneke LIVE  @ PURPUR/Musikbrauerei Berlin 08.04.22

Is this still downtempo :)? I reworked an old, unfinished tune from 2016 and got into a slightly more energetic approach (the first version had more easy-listening vibes).
Mastering: @home and in the box (drop me a line if you hear some issues)
The lyrics are more or less nonsense. Direct translation:
"The sun is laughing - not everyday in summer - in my sentence - there is a comma before every dot"

Thanks to Maxi from @latenightjockelsession for inviting me, the whole crew (@kollektivfuchsbau and all the others) for organizing this festival, @sahrabass for supporting me during my gig and all the people who danced with me sunday noon (after a loooong night). Last but not least I was very happy to meet a lot of people I mostly only knew from the online-soundcloud-bubble:
@maria-theresia-von-eberg @lisa_luka @tokioshrink @mataharry @12imhaus @patajana @bonnieskleid @frida-darko @at_ric @tobertober-1 @mara-sichel @varnold @aldorado-j2t @djturak @sofia-zamfirescu(and everyone I forgot :-O)

As always - not perfect, some live mashups sound a little bit off, not every synth/perc-part is tight. Hope you enjoy it.

Special thanks & props to @pastorzaster for providing those nice rap called "Zocken" for my reggae trip around min 30 ;)

reyneke LIVE @ MiLa-Festival 2022 | Funkloch

A little remix I did for the Theo Gramal. I took his nice original into a somewhat more driving direction, featuring a rather unusual triplet-feel (so DJs, be aware - but I tried to create points in the track where you can mix it with standard-feel tracks ;))

trying to chase
that deserted space
which empties the mind
silent and blind

thoughtless for free
and I can see
what shimmers in bloom
orchids from moon

Theo Gramal - Tabalear (Reyneke's Playground Mix) [Serafin Audio Imprint]

I made this little edit for my favorite festival of the year - the Wild Things Festival. Thanks to all the nice people there which made this event a real blast <3!

EDIT: I have to admit - this is only a quickly mastered version, there is a possibility that an update may come in the next week (in case I come to the conclusion, that this could track could work better soundwise ;))

Free WAV

[FREE DL] The Troggs - Wild Thing (Reyneke Reinterpretation)

This track describes the feeling which I had after a long summer with a lot of (daytime) work, playing/attending festivals and - last but not least - making some new music. Each is great on it's own, but at that time it felt as it was too much to do without enough time to spend with my friends, my family and enjoying nature/doing sports. It felt like riding an endless rollercoaster - funny in the beginning, but the more rounds it took the more I liked it to stop :)

Download available now on Bandcamp!

Special thanks to  @sahrabass and  @maria-theresia-von-eberg for supporting and giving input <3

Life is a Loop (Original Mix)

EDIT: Small update, hope the Download is fixed now!

While staying in Thailand with some beautiful people for a couple of days, Simone gave me the idea of making an edit of this song - which I honestly did not know before. But it is a great track and I really had fun doing this edit for the last days. It is far from perfect, partly mixed on airpods and without real mastering, but I hope the message of this track working nonetheless! 
I wish everyone a happy new year, hope It will get better than 2022 ;).

Cheers

Basti

PS.: As always there is a great chance that I release a "better" version the next days I find the time do to some proper mixing :D

PREMIERE: Bassara - Delayla [ down. ]

EDIT: I updated the mix a little bit - If you like to compare to the old version here is a link https://soundcloud.com/reyneke/reyneke-silent-wood-original-mix-conventional-master/s-Yah542pZKqK

This track once started as a Korg Gadget-Sketch, took a short break in PHUEXE-Kitchen with @christianhuelshoff and ended up in the lumber room for several years. 
As I still liked the track idea and the winter got me in the mood for some downtempo again, I did some sessions on this  - et voila. Hope you like it.

Stilles Holz (Original Mix)

Originating from an early version of my Mondkranich (https://soundcloud.com/underyourskinrecords/reyneke-mondkranich-im-dezember-uysr073) , this version was basically created for using it in my liveset. It is a little bit faster (104bpm) and features a punchier, funkier sound. 
Self-mixed & -mastered (so I am always happy if someone has some hints for improving my sound <3)

Mondkranich Im März (Liveset Mix)

This is a a little mixing retouch of what I would call my first released track. Technically we used this as second track for the @phuexe debut EP, but unlike "Goldamsel" (where Chris did some great work on arrangement and lead), this one came straight out of my kitchen. 
As I still like the track (but the mix just was not that good) and it isn't available on Soundcloud anymore from @wayurecords, I decided to give it a quick overhaul with the Baphometrix CTZ-Method - hope you like it.

PHUEXE - Regentage (Reyneke Rainy Retouch)

"Ich bin dein Entspannungsmotor
drum schalt mich auch mal an
weil du ohne Entspannungsmotor
einfach nicht entspannen kannst"

Translation:
"I am your relaxation engine.
So turn me on sometimes.
Because without a relaxation engine,
You simply cannot relax."

Thanks to @sahrabass, Annika @nnifee from @mwaah and @maria-theresia-von-eberg for their input <3

Entspannungsmotor (Original Mix)

Just a quick mashup for my upcoming liveset using an acapella of the german rap classic "Füchse" by Absolute Beginner in combination with the "Entspannungsmotor" https://soundcloud.com/reyneke/entspannungsmotor-original-mix . 
Thanks to the Beginner and Samy Deluxe for making this track 25 years ago ❤️

EDIT: Download will follow in the next weeks after my gig at Beate Uwe - still have to fix some minor issues in mix and vocals ;)


Hope you like it :)

Absolute Beginner - Füchse (Reyneke Relax Riddim)

Dear Zugvögel,
what a wonderful festival you all (guests/crew/artist) created there - amazing! This is my recording from saturday 5-7pm - imperfect, partly improvised play order and some quirks here and there - but I hope you like it anyways (at least the people danced to it during the rain <3). Thanks to all of you :)
<<< Nobody has to play edits - but you can >>>

Liebe Zugvögel,
was ein wunderbares Festival ihr alle (Gäste/Veranstalter/Künstler) da mal wieder auf die Beine gestellt habt - wow :) Hatte sehr viel Spaß dabei, für euch bei einer wilden Mischung aus Regen, Regen und ein bisschen weniger Regen (+ 5 kurzen Sonnenstrahlen am Anfang des Sets) spielen zu dürfen - schön, dass ihr alle mit mir ausgeharrt habt. 

- All tracks written & performed by myself (except obviously everything concerning the vocals and partly the melodies of my edits:)

Das Set an sich ist wahrlich nicht perfekt (hab mich doch des öfteren mal verspielt) und ich musste auch irgendwann meine eingeübte Komfortzone verlassen, um die zum Wetter passenden unfertigen Edits irgendwie noch unterbringen zu können - aber Anscheinend hat es ja trotzdem Spaß gemacht <3
Vielen Lieben Dank an alle, die mitgeholfen haben, dieses Festival auf die Beine zu stellen, an alle die die gute Laune trotz der widrigen Bedingungen nicht verloren haben (an die andern aber natürlich auch ;)) und all die tollen Menschen, die ich kennenlernen durfte und mit denen ich das Festival verbracht habe! Allet liebe und bis bald,

Basti

Sixto Rodriguez - Sugarman (Reynekes Edit)

Das Rabenkind ist flügge geworden, es fliegt nun seinen Weg...
the raven child has fledged, now flies his way...
...الطفل الغراب قد هرب ، والآن يطير في طريقه
ребенок-ворон оперся, теперь летит...

My father introduced me to Alan Parsons Projects "The Raven"  ( https://soundcloud.com/the-alan-parsons-project/the-raven-1987-remix )when I was 10 years old - ever since then, the bassline of this tracks comes back to me, so I had to do a track using a (slightly modified) pattern like this as an intro. Out came the "Rabenkind".

Der Lachfalke (Original Mix)

One year ago, I listened to a song from michaonfire and Sonia called Njoum (Stars) and instantly liked their vibe https://soundcloud.com/user-769640726-833291896/micha-sonia-njoum-demo.
I asked Micha if I could do some sort of remix/interpretation and he luckily sent me the stems of their recordings. I had a lot of stuff to do the last summer, so it took me quite a while to start this remix and get it done. Hope you like it :) 
Props go out to the good people at recording.de and especially synthpark (https://soundcloud.com/klangpolitur) who provided the mastering for the release <3

Just a little reinterpreation for my 2019-Liveset @klunkerkranich :)
The original Rabenkind was a little laidback, so I wanted a more danceable/funky version. It is not thaaaat polished (just added the E-Piano I wanted to play live, changed the Kick and did some basic mixing). This release is kind of a "Thank you" for supporting me in 2020 that much :) You will see some more releases from myself and my project @bassaramusic (with the lovely @sahrabass) in the near future!

PODCASTS: Sorry :-O

🆂🆃🅾🆁🆈
Born in Cologne and raised up in southern bavaria, reyneke started playing classical guitar when he was 10 years old. Growing older he eventually discovered punk rock, so he switched his wooden guitar to an electric and started playing in bands. At the same time he had his first electronic music experience visiting cosmic music (some sort of slow techno only popular from italy till south of germany) and goa partys. From this time on, he produced music with only his computer and the - rather basic - tools of the end 90s softsynth era and trackers. After a long period of doing mainly reggae/dancehall instrumentals, he came back to electronic music when moving to berlin in 2010. Since then he is fascinated by the rather slow & deep side of this genre. In 2018 and 2019 he had the first releases with his projects @PHUEXE and @Bassaramusic (with @sahrabass) which found a good resonance with popular DJs like Mira, Madmotormiquel and others, who played the tunes on big festivals like Fusion and Garbicz.
