This is our premiere of db-Maui’s track ”Sterne” from the upcoming EP ”Die Sterne und das Unicorn”

"db-Maui is a new addition to the Broque roster and on his EP „Die Sterne und das Unicorn“ he got us hooked immediately with five tracks, each of which seems to have inhaled its own piece of club history.

The chords of „So Pretty“ (feat. Herr Michels) are driven by energetic vocals and roll funky across the dancefloor. Its very tight production wouldn’t seem dis- placed in a Joris Voorn set. With ist slightly distorted vocals, the melodic electro sound of „Sterne“ exudes a wonderful retro charm reminiscing of the likes of DMX Crew and IF. Ist marching “Mondmann Edition” comes with subtle acid lines and transforms the spirit of the track into a playful peak-time banger. The longing vo- cals of deep and melodic „You“ combine Pampa-esque rave pop with melancholic club romance to create a small masterpiece, while „Unicorn“ is once again a little more percussive and direct, dancing towards the sunrise with a deeply embraced TB303 in its arms. Each of the five tracks has what it takes to be a club hit in its own way and seems to have been polished with great attention to detail. The phrase “no fillers, just killers” probably was invented for this EP. One wonders why we are learning about db-Maui only now. From Ruhrpott with Love!"

Avant-garde house music between lofi- and minimal / deep house, techno, glitch and electronica, plunderphonics and house, the Westend Ghetto Guys somehow occupy a niche of their own and live from strange glitches and bizarre sounds. Bootleg remixes and mashups for 'iamamiwhoami' also lead to an official remix ("N") and collaborations with other musicians (e.g. 3PM, Minute Taker, Christopher Norman, Klordop / Tis, Morgen Wurde) from the Swedish pioneers of viral video chips. Not surprisingly, the collective from the Westend Ghetto even published sample libraries for the renowned magazine "Computer Music" and for the 'sounds2sample'-Platform and offers highly acclaimed "ensembles" in the Reaktor community ("Native Instruments").
