It's fair to say that Tim Bernhardt, aka Satin Jackets, has kept himself busy the last 18 months. Whilst much of the music industry's been locked down, the nu-disco star's released a series of acclaimed singles and forged several new connections. One of which, his partnership with up & coming UK vocalist Tailor is already paying dividends. Having hit the ground running with the single 'Relapse' this spring, the pair now return with the soulful pop gem, 'Spell'. https://soundcloud.com/tailorsongs

"Spell is about letting yourself deep dive into the unknown with someone," explains the British singer. "You don't know where you're both headed, but still you're willing to just surrender yourself to the journey and float off together into the unknown."

Blessed with one of those voices that you feel as much as hear, Tailor delivers a stunning performance on 'Spell', perfectly capturing the song's seductive, yearning vibe. At the same time Bernhardt produces one of his finest tracks in recent years allowing Tailor's vocals the space to breathe, burnishing them with seductive synths washes, subtle flourishes and a dreamy beat.

Having clocked up more than 60 million streams on Spotify alone for his 2019 album 'Solar Nights', Bernhardt has gone from strength to strength, releasing a string of singles and EPs throughout 2020 and '21 from classic instrumental nu-disco though to hit collaborations with the likes of Australian indie star Panama and new talent such as Tailor.

Satin Jackets & Tailor - Spell (Extended Mix)

With three hit collaborations already in the bag Tim Bernhardt, AKA Satin Jackets, and Australian star Panama have come together once again for the dreamy, pitch perfect synth-pop of 'Move On'. https://soundcloud.com/panamamusicofficial

Taken from Satin Jackets' hotly anticipated third album, 'Move On' sees Tim lay down yet more blissful washes of sound that, combined with the kind of synths that could soundtrack a tearful moment in any classic 80s film, provide the ideal backdrop for Panama's wistful vocals.

"When Tim sent me this really vibey instrumental it just tweaked something in my mind, and got me thinking about all the people 'moving on' with their lives post pandemic," explains Panama. "I'm really happy with how Tim approached what I gave him, which was originally quite raw, and from that initial spark grow it into something that perfectly captures the vibe, both melancholic but with an ultimately uplifting feel."

Satin Jackets' third album, the follow-up to 'Panorama Pacifico' and 'Solar Nights', will be out August 26th, 2022.

Satin Jackets & Panama - Move On

Having first worked together back in 2016,  German disco star Tim Bernhardt, AKA Satin Jackets reunites with Belgian indie pop singer Ivy Falls for their meditative new single, 'Different Directions'.

"My first collaboration with Satin Jackets was quite a memorable experience for me," explains Ivy Falls, aka Ghent-based Fien Deman. "It was my first attempt at writing a track in a genre I wasn't familiar with and enjoyed it a lot. Even more so once it was out and proved to be so popular."

"Six years later, and now with my own new band Ivy Falls, I wanted to make another song with Tim and introduce my present writing style into it. So 'Different Directions' is about following your gut instinct and letting go of the idea that you have to follow one certain path and do it as strict as possible. Letting go of the pressure and living each day as it comes. A good intention I try to follow."

The result is a wonderfully uplifting song that purrs with positivity, Deman's soft yet joyous vocals speak of a deeper happiness as Bernhardt gently wraps them in the kind of sun kissed melodies that will keep you warm long after the stars are shining overhead.

After the success of their first two collaborations it was inevitable that German nu-disco star Tim Bernhardt, AKA Satin Jackets, would reunite with up & coming UK vocalist Tailor and that burgeoning partnership has once again produced dividends in the shape of their stunning new single 'First Thing'.

A bittersweet disco pop gem, 'First Thing' once again shows why Tailor is so in demand right now, as both a singer and songwriter. Delivering another heartbreaking appraisal of our own frailties and faults, Tailor delivers his lines with a searing honesty and raw intensity that captivates the listener.

Meanwhile Bernhardt cements his position as one of the best disco producers around, not just able to lay down the kind of crisp beats and bass lines that will have you moving on the dancefloor, but also craft the kind of luxurious, sympathetic melodies and instrumentation that makes his music.

Satin Jackets & Tailor - First Thing

'Reunion' is the third album from nu-disco star Tim Bernhardt, aka Satin Jackets. Order now! https://link.eskimorecordings.be/Reunion

Released this summer on Eskimo Recordings 'Reunion' is a stunning follow up to the German producer's first two critically acclaimed albums and features 14 stunning tracks of sun kissed disco, Balearic house, leftfield pop and guest vocals from the likes of Australian star Panama Music, Belgian singer Ivy Falls, US based vocalist Metaxas and up and coming British singer Tailor.

With Bernhardt’s 2nd album, 'Solar Nights', one of the most successful nu-disco records of recent times the following years should have made the Satin Jackets name a regular fixture on club and festival bills worldwide. Sadly, much like the rest of us, the pandemic saw the producer's horizons limited to the four walls of his new Munich studio. Still with the world out of reach Bernhardt turned to the internet to keep in touch with his fans and sow the seeds for what would become '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 an artist now completely at ease in the studio, a musician and producer now confident in both his abilities and artistic vision. From start to finish 'Reunion' is an album that adds new depths and dimensions to the Satin Jackets sound whilst sounding utterly unforced.

"The feelings that music inspires can be intensely personal but at the same time it's a universal language that can help us communicate and break down the barriers between us and connect. So this album is meant as a canvas for people to paint the colours of their existence onto and share with others, an escape from a sometimes harsh reality but also an offer of a common space where we might remember what makes us stronger."

HAPPY HOUR DJ : SATIN JACKETS

Poolside's Jeffrey Paradise has rightly made a name for himself over the past decade producing the kind of blissed out downtempo disco that cocktails and sunsets were made for. Having recently seen Satin Jackets remix his own 'Losing Control' single to stunning effect, the Los Angeles producer returns the favour adding his distinctive warm touch to the sublime 'Spell'.  One of three songs on Satin Jacket's new album featuring up & coming British singer Tailor, Poolside rebuilds the track around the track's yearning vocals, looping and sending them echoing off into space accompanied by a bubbling synth bass line and etheric synth washes whilst a chugging 97bpm house beat keeps our feet anchored safely to the dance floor.      “I loved working on this remix after being a fan of Satin Jackets for so long, especially his recent remix of my song ‘Losing Control," explains Paradise. "The original ‘Spell’ is a great track, so I wanted to honor it while still making it my own. I added some classic Poolside slow motion house music vibes to the entire thing, and also played with the structure a lot by making the original chorus the bridge and adding a new chorus of my own with a cut up vocal. Enjoy!”

Alex Hook & Rene - You Showed Me (Original Mix)

One of the many highlights from Satin Jackets' new album Reunion, the evocative 'Relapse' gets a new remix from fast rising San Francisco based producer Vandelux.  Rebuilding the track around British vocalist Tailor's melancholy vocals and a looping, hypnotic bass line, Vandelux keeps the track's wistful vibe whilst taking the track in a fresh direction.  "I loved the top line on this as soon as I heard it and had to reach out to Tim [Satin Jackets] to see if I could rework it," explains Vandelux. "I wanted to give the track more of an organic, funky feel, so I brought in some live bass and percussive vocal chops and let the main vocal just do its thing."

Rasmus Faber & Metaxas - Be Real (Satin Jackets Remix)

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.
