Some might say the future looks bleak, but it doesn’t in the world of Tim Bernhardt. Better known as Satin Jackets, he manages to see a light at the end of the tunnel with his new single “The Future” - created together with the Australian veteran collaborator Panama. As we stumble into a new year, Tim manages to move forward with a song that washes over you like warm, rolling waves, cascading again and again. “The Future” conveys a sense of comfort and hope, while its subconscious repetition provides the pulse that makes you feel alive. As Panama sings: “There in my heart, in the future”, there is no doubt that what is coming may be uncertain, but Satin Jackets is here to tell you that it will be alright. Wherever you might be listening to “The Future” - be it at a beach club, on a mountain top, or at a rooftop bar - Tim's ability to make you feel in the right moment, at the right place is at play once more.

“The Future” is the first song to be released on Tim’s own independent imprint “Golden Hour”. It’s a symbolic title for a song predicting what’s coming.


Manche mögen denken, dass die Zukunft nicht immer rosig aussah in letzter Zeit, aber in der Welt von Tim Bernhardt ist das nicht der Fall. Besser bekannt als Satin Jackets, schafft er es, mit seiner neuen Single “The Future”, die er zusammen mit dem australischen Musikveteranen Panama erschaffen hat, ein Licht am Ende des Tunnels zu sehen. Tim beginnt das neue Jahr mit einem Song, der einen mitreißt, wie eine Welle, die immer wiederkehrt und dabei ein wohliges Gefühl von Wärme, Trost und Hoffnung verbreitet. In der rhythmischen Wiederholung liegt ein fortwährender Puls, der Lebendigkeit verbreitet, während Panama singt “There in my heart, in the Future”. Die Zukunft mag ungewiss sein, aber Satin Jackets ist hier, um das Gefühl zu vermitteln, dass alles gut wird. Wo auch immer “The Future” laufen wird, sei es in einem Club am Strand, in einer Rooftop Bar oder auf einem Berggipfel - Tims Fähigkeit, im richtigen Moment das Gefühl zu geben, am richtigen Ort zu sein, ist stets ein Teil der Rezeptur.

“The Future” ist der erste Titel, der auf Tims eigenem Independent-Label “Golden Hour” veröffentlicht wird. Es ist ein symbolischer Titel für einen Song, der voraussagt, was kommen wird.

Lyrics

When you lie
Here alone,
The lying is lonely,
Looking out,
Looking up,
Now that the falling is lonely,

Going the wrong way,
I love you but,
Want you to know,
God i love you but,
 I’ve got no control,
No no don’t get me wrong,

There in my heart,
There in my heart,
 In the future,
 There in my heart,
You’e there in my heart,
 In the future

There in my heart,
There in my heart,
 In the future,
 There in my heart,
You’e there 


Hanging out let me up,
Where the water is blue now,
Looking down down below,
It’s like I’m falling slowly,

Going the wrong way,
I love you but,
Want you to know,
God i love you but,
 I’ve got no control,
No no don’t get me wrong,

There in my heart,
There in my heart,
 In the future,
 There in my heart,
You’e there in my heart,
 In the future,

There in my heart,
There in my heart,
In the future,
There in my heart,
You’e there,
In the future

The Future

If there is one thing that Satin Jackets can do, it’s making you feel good on the dance
floor. While the soulful, uplifting track “In This Life”already compels you to get get 
moving, Satin Jackets has managed to level up with this Cassara remix. Multi-
talented producer Chris Cassara had already proven what he is capable of with his 
previous remix of Satin Jackets’ “Never Enough.”
It’s well-known that Tim Bernhardt has mastered the recipe for elevating and soul-
stirring music, but having an extra chef in the kitchen can up the ante: Cassara knew
exactly how to add some extra spice to the second single released on Golden Hour. 
With a classic disco feeling and a pinch of “French Touch” on top, it conveys a 
certain courage - something that takes you to the next level on the dance floor. 
When Satin Jackets brings in the melody, Cassara knows how to raise the tempo 
without losing sight of its soulful vibe. The combination of a stomping bass, Nile-
Rodgers-like guitar licks and the right tempo, confirms that Cassara was the right 
choice stir in that special something to the already perfect sophomore single “In This 
Life”.

In This Life (Cassara Remix)

Get ready to elevate your senses with Satin Jackets' latest track, "Somewhere in 
Paradise," with Tim Bernhardt and Tailor riding in at the top of the wave. The UK-
based Singer/Songwriter from Birmingham has once again joined forces with Tim, 
the mastermind behind Satin Jackets, to deliver a nu disco masterpiece. With 
"Relapse," "First Thing," and "Spell" already under their belt, it's no secret that Tailor 
and Satin Jackets make an unstoppable duo. Tailor's rich baritone voice adds a 
touch of sophistication and depth to Tim's infectious beats, making each 
collaboration an instant classic.
"Somewhere in Paradise" is no exception - it's a track that blends lighthearted 
synthpads with emotional vocals, creating a unique and irresistible sound that will get
you moving and grooving.
As Tailor sings, "I know there's some magic, can't hope for twice," you'll be 
transported to a world of endless possibilities, where anything can happen. While the
song elicits dreamlike images of endless road trips and late night rooftop parties, 
there is much more going on under the surface. Tim consistently incorporates 
emotional components in his music, and Tailor knows exactly how to translates 
those into lyrics and melodies. The track's layered synths and steady rhythm will 
keep your heart beating to the music, reminding us that Satin Jackets is not only 
there to make you dance, but also to make you feel something deep within.
"Somewhere in Paradise" is a testament to the fact that Tailor and Satin Jackets 
have all the right ingredients to create more magic in the future. So sit back, relax, 
and let the music take you on a journey to paradise.

Somewhere In Paradise

Satin Jackets and Panama have teamed up for their fifth collaboration, and it feels 
like coming home. If "Move On" and "The Future" have already proven that these 
two artists know how to create gold together, then "Alive" definitely completes this 
trilogy. On this latest sonic adventure, Tim Bernhardt once again brings out the best 
in the Australian artist, who seamlessly weaves his lush vocals into every track that 
Satin Jackets produces.
While "Move On" felt like a dramatic goodbye to the past and "The Future" like a 
hopeful return, "Alive" is a celebration of the present. It's a glorious, upbeat track that
will have you yearning for good times and a packed dance floor. It's more uptempo 
than Satin Jackets' recent singles, while proving that Tim's musical style is not 
limited to one genre, as he effortlessly creates a French House feeling complete with
compressed arpeggios and sharp handclaps.
Panama's vocals on "I'm alive, oh now I'm alive" perfectly capture the atmosphere of 
this gem. As always, it's the groove where Satin Jackets shines, with a melodic 
bassline and classic four-to-the-floor beat. Although this euphoric floorfiller stays 
under four minutes, it's a shame because "Alive" could go on forever.

Alive

As we embrace the vibrant energy of summer, the anticipation builds with the latest releases on Tim's esteemed Golden Hour Recordings. Satin Jackets' Tim Bernhardt is renowned for his brilliant collaborations, as seen with Panama and Booka Shade. But when it comes to creating musical magic, three minds align perfectly. Tensnake, the moniker of the renowned German producer Marco Niemerski, who soared to international fame with his sensational single “Coma Cat," proves to be the ideal creative counterpart for Tim on his latest release. Tim has discovered kindred spirits in Kimchii, also known as Kim Söderlund.
"Last Dance" effortlessly merges the trademark Satin Jackets sound with Tensnake's distinctive production style. Kimchii's captivating vocals add a touch of summer bliss to this irresistible track. With lush synths, pulsating beats, and a groove that propels us forward, "Last Dance" is poised to become the ultimate summer anthem.
Prepare to be swept away on a sonic journey as "Last Dance" transports you to sun-kissed moments and unforgettable nights. Satin Jackets, Tensnake, and Kimchii craft an enchanting fusion of melody and rhythm that will make your heart race and your feet move in perfect harmony. So immerse yourself in the magic of "Last Dance" and let the music guide your dance beneath the stars.

Lyrics
Last Dance (4x)
My heart beats …
My heart beats on the rhythm
Your cold feet
Just in time
Meet me in the middle 
In he middle of night
Last dance
Lights
Hit the light
Break it down
Break it down baby
Rewind
Rewind the time
Shut the lights
Be mine
Be all mine
For a last dance 
Yeah

Lyrics

Why give a shit
You can just check out
Why stay in itThere's just one way out
The deck is stacked
Put your best foot forward 
Another day you're overwhelmed 
By the noise of the adverts 

Path down seems long
Salad days are gone
Just quiet quit - don’t overthink 
We know where we are 

Why change the world? 
You can just change worlds 
When even try again?
Just rip it up instead
Why change the world ? 
Why change the world ? 

Why take a shot?
It's a free for all
And don’t you be the one
Who stays too long
Why did you think
That our time would be different ? 
You’re gonna have to watch this 
Place go down
Like everybody else is 

Keep a weather eye
Get to work on tim
eWhere do I sign on this form? 
Below the bottom line 

Why change the world?
You can just change worlds 
Why try at all
when you see its all gonna fall? 
Why change the world ?
Why change the world ? 
Can't you just change worlds? 
Can't you just change worlds? 
Just change worlds

Unleash Your Inner Rebel

For a decade now the name Satin Jackets has been synonymous with sublimely laidback Balearic house and sun kissed disco. The brainchild of German producer Tim Bernhardt who, following a successful career producing house music under a variety of different aliases, launched Satin Jackets as a vehicle to explore his lifelong love of disco and the clean, polished productions of artists like CHIC and Trevor Horn.

“I had always been fascinated by just how glossy people like Nile Rogers made their music,” Bernhardt explains. “It always sounded like the musical equivalent of a fashion magazine’s cover. I’d been making somewhat more underground music for a while but really wanted to go in totally the other direction and create this really smooth, polished sound.”

That first Satin Jackets release, the dreamlike You Make Me Feel Good, would set the tone for what was to come. Released on the iconic Belgian label Eskimo Recordings, which had previously helped launch the careers of artists like Aeroplane and Lindstrøm & Prins Thomas, it was an instant hit. Its graceful melodies, airy textures and yearning chorus became the soundtrack to the setting sun at parties worldwide.

With almost metronomic precision You Make Me Feel Good was followed by a string of acclaimed singles and remixes for some of the genre’s biggest names, including Goldroom and Blank & Jones, establishing Bernhardt as one of the most exciting new names in the nu-disco scene. While the face behind the mask may have remained a mystery, Satin Jackets’ warm, polished take on disco soon made the name familiar to music lovers around the world.

Taking things to the next level, 2016’s debut Satin Jackets album, Panorama Pacifico, firmly cemented Bernhardt’s position as both Eskimo’s flagship artist and as one of the biggest nu-disco producers around. Winning praise from the likes of Mixmag, DJ Mag and Groove, the album has gone on to click up over 75 million streams on Spotify alone, and Satin Jackets’ golden mask has become a regular fixture behind the decks at clubs and festivals from Mexico City to Seoul.

2019’s follow up, Solar Nights, would see Bernhardt further develop and refine the Satin Jackets sound. Rapturously received by fans, DJs and press alike, the album, propelled by singles like the global hit ‘Northern Lights’, proved that, much like the original disco artists that first inspired the project, Bernhardt was just as capable of crafting radio friendly pop hits as tracks for the dance floor.

While the pandemic may have put plans for global tours and festival appearances on hold, Bernhardt kept himself busy as clubland went into hibernation. Having relocated to Munich just before lockdown, a succession of singles that ranged from out-and-out pop collaborations to instrumental, chilled-out tracks as well as a series of live Lockdown Streams kept Bernhardt in touch with his ever growing legion of fans. Indeed, it was those Lockdown Streams and the response from his fans that allowed Bernhardt to rediscover, in his own words, “the connection between what I do and what people feel” and sow the seeds for what was to come.

Now as we emerge blinking into the new world, Bernhardt returns with Satin Jackets’ third album, the aptly titled Reunion. Where the first two Satin Jackets albums saw Bernhardt work to first develop his own sound and then elevate his productions to another level, Reunion reveals a musician and producer wholly at ease with both his abilities in the studio and artistic vision. 

From blissful instrumental tracks that seem to effortlessly float above the clouds, through to bittersweet wistful pop songs featuring the likes of Australian star Panama, Belgian singer Ivy Falls, US based vocalist Metaxas and up-and-coming British singer Tailor, Reunion is a strikingly confident album that layers new depths and dimensions to the Satin Jackets sound and sets the stage for the next exciting chapter of the Satin Jackets story.
