Es Schallt im Wald, das kleine kostenlose Open Air.

From the cult-open-air to the label…. The new label “ESIW-Records” got his name from the open air “Es schallt im Wald” which always starts with a befitting summer-tune into the open air season.
The title “Naples” by Cajuu sounds pretty groovy and is sending cheerfulness.
 
With Markus Homm as a remixer, whose career reaches from 8 Bits, Brise, Highgrade, and Kling Klong to Defected, ESIW Records could land a hit. He contributes a solid club bomb, which forces you to dance automatically.
 
Everybody who still does not know Thomas Stieler already, will no longer get past him. He is one of the discoveries of the cult label "Freude am Tanzen". About his remix you can only say …HOUSE YOU…!!!
 
Sound-genius Alex Q completes this great record. With his remix of Kollektiv Turmstrasse he has already made a stir. His mixture of ingenuity and directness led to a remix no words can describe..

Vom Kult Open Air zum Label....... Das ist der Werdegang des neuen Label ESIW-Records, welches auf dem Namen des Open Airs „es schallt im Wald“ basiert.
Es wird standesgemäß mit einem Sommertune in die Open Air Saison gestartet. 
Der Titel „Naples“ von Cajuu kommt treibend groovig daher, vergisst dabei aber nicht die housige gute Laune.
 
Mit Markus Homm als Remixer , dessen Werdegang von 8 Bit über Brise, Highgrade, Kling Klong bis Defected reicht, konnten ESIW Records einen Coup landen.
Er steuert eine Clubbombe bei, welche solider nicht sein kann, Homm-typisch zwingt er einen automatisch zum Tanzen.
 
Wer Thomas Stieler noch immer nicht kennt, wird an ihm nicht mehr vorbeikommen. Er zählt zu den Neuentdeckungen des Cult Labels „Freude am Tanzen“.
Zu seiner Version kann man nur eines sagen … HOUSE YOU…!!!!
 
Abgerundet wird diese tolle Platte vom Klanggenie Alex Q, der schon mit seinem  Remix für Kollektiv Turmstrasse für Aufsehen gesorgt hat.
Seine Mischung aus Genialität und Gradlinigkeit führte zu einem Remix der keine Wünsche offen lässt
