With 'Trip to Sanity,' Berlin-based producer, DJ, live performer, and Stil vor Talent label head Oliver Koletzki presents a milestone in his 36-year long musical career and his 18-year tenure at the top of global electronic nightlife – his 10th studio album.

The album’s title, "Trip to Sanity’" – a reference to the classic German children’s story of the little dragon 'Tabaluga' – reflects Oliver's own path as a DJ within the world of club culture. But it also represents the appeal to an unbroken childlike curiosity as a producer, driven by the utopias of this parallel society. Naturally, Koletzki found his creative spark while performing on the stages of renowned festivals like Burning Man, Coachella, Garbicz, and Fusion, as well as in moments of peace and relaxation on meditative hikes and long beach walks in his second home of Cape Town.
 
In South Africa, Oliver wrote most of "Trip to Sanity" in the winter, then flashed out and finalised the tracks in his studio at Kreuzberg's Holzmarkt. Within the last 18 months a collection of complex and varied songs formed, which, typical for Oliver's collaborative approach, were often created in cooperation with musicians like techno-pop legend Fritz Kalkbrenner, Burning Man chance encounter Talmirage, scene friends Andhim, Hidden Empire, Oliver Klostermann and Niko Schwind, or the exceptional voices Natascha Polké, Malou, LOLY and Marlena Dae. The result is a rollercoaster ride through a diverse spectrum of dance music, effortlessly held together by Koletzki's unmistakable sound signature and his intrinsic sense for the exact tension between hedonistic dancefloor focus and poppy earworm impact. At the centre of it all shines a joie de vivre that runs like a thread through "Trip to Sanity": Playful, cheeky, imaginative, euphoric, a rainbow of genres and influences flow into each other, balanced by moments of reflection, melancholy or harshness.

With "Stay until the Light" Oliver Koletzki reveals the first high-impact sneak peak of his forthcoming tenth studio album "Trip to Sanity" – a monumental milestone in the seasoned Berlin producer's career at the forefront of contemporary electronic music, to be released on Stil vor Talent this autumn.      
 
On "Stay until the Light" Koletzki collaborates with fellow label stalwart Niko Schwind and the San Francisco singer Talmirage, masterfully melding Oliver's penchant for dramatic neon synths, rolling bass lines and captivating vocal hooks into a gripping indie-dance hymn that seductively beckons the listener to "stay until the light, hold me until the sunrise".  
 
Accompanying the to-the-point "Radio Mix", Oliver and Niko each deliver their own "Extended Mix", both firmly focussed on the floor. While Koletzki opts for a psychedelic rendition which strips down the vocals and amps up the drama by way of a teasing arrangement, Schwind beds Talmirage's voice on a bass-heavy italo framework to ecstatic effect. Rounding off the single, we are treated to two additional remixes: First up, Watergate hotshot Biesmans crafts a powerfully pumping reinterpretation weaving elastic synths and jazzy breaks around the original's vox. The Barcelona-based talent Gespona then shines by way of the chugging percussion and funky fluorescent licks of his rework – bringing a heavy-hitting package to a close that wets the appetite for more.

Party people, superfriends, podcasters and back-to-back buddies: This ain't the first time DJ heavyweights Oliver Koletzki and andhim join forces. However, "Branka", the second sneak-peak of Oliver's forthcoming "Trip to Sanity" album, marks the maiden studio collaboration between the three veterans of the field. Needless to say, the result is set to blow up dance floors around the globe: While the title track "Branka" pairs a chugging groove with a climax of melancholic piano chords and flute flurries to hands-up effect, "Orbit" is more deranged with its thumping kicks, old-school rave harmonies and crunchy snare rolls. Perfectly balancing the tension between tasteful restraint and all-out euphoria, these two club tracks equally satisfy and leave us wanting more – luckily Koletzki has us covered with "Trip to Sanity".

Pre order: https://va.lnk.to/Oliver-Koletzki_Candyflip_StilvorTalent

On “Candyflip”, the third sneak peek of his forthcoming “Trip to Sanity” album, Oliver Koletzki shifts gear and puts the pedal to the metal. The EP’s title track is pure forward momentum with its neon synth euphoria that rushes over a muscular body, generously pairing menacing bass with percussive storytelling. Next up, the arppaggio-driven “Mantra for Bora” settles somewhere between Psy-Tech and Italo, craftily working tropes of both into a climax of total dissolution. No matter the elements, one thing’s clear – Koletzki is ready to overtake. “Chasing Holes” then literally flips the candy on its head, taking off on auto-pilot, fueled by flamenco guitar licks and funky hand drums a-top a strong house groove. A word of advice, fellow ravers: Buckle up for a joyride through the depth of night – sunrise is on the horizon.

On the latest and fourth single proceeding Oliver Koletzki’s 10th album “Trip to Sanity”, the Berlin maestro masters myriad moods to impressive effect. The kick-off “Space Papi” set a light tone being a fruity 3am banger that favours bounce over brute force: Koletzki takes no prisoners in regard to dance floor damage by way of the track’s moreish bassline and a healthy dose of white noise grandeur. True to its title, the EP’s namesake “Pleasure of the Very First Time” then bubbles over with playful twists and turns, zigzagging sprightly across its indie-dance thump. Lastly, “Mind Games” takes a turn for darker territories, elevating an almost claustrophobic atmosphere at its outset with Natascha Polke’s mesmerizing vocals before blossoming into a rich apex in its second half, ready to leave you breathless.

PREMIERE: Oliver Koletzki - Pleasure Of The Very First Time (Original Mix) [Stil Vor Talent]

Pre order: https://lnk.to/Heart-on-Hold_Oliver-Koletzki_Fritz-Kalkbrenner_Stil-vor-Talent

For the fifth and final single in advance of his “Trip to Sanity” album, Oliver Koletzki teams up with a true heavyweight of the scene – the techno-pop-legend that is Fritz Kalkbrenner. The result, “Heart on Hold”, marries Kalkbrenner’s unmistakable vox and emotive lyrics with Koletzki’s punchy production, lacing atmospheric synths through a brooding bass-line and driving beat.

Bulgarian allrounder Pavel Petrov and Stil vor Talent faves Hidden Empire each then bring their own unique touch to “Heart on Hold” by way of two contrasting remixes. While Petrov uses Fritz’s vocals sparingly on-top a flexing electro-acid workout, Hidden Empire give a masterclass in tension-and-release dynamics with their trance-inducing reinterpretation. Fitting for a plethora of dance floor moods, this EP will make hearts beat faster.
