Dapayk Solo, Berlin based producer and veteran of the minimal techno scene, announces the release of his tenth studio album, The Calling. This latest project will be the producer's first solo album since 2015. The first track on this eight-track 2x12" is "The Calling" and it starts off with a pang of energetic, chopped beats before exploding into a brassy melody, continuously gaining momentum. "Blackout" immediately announces itself as a next generation Detroit house anthem. The rolling synths, hi hats, and vocals make this one of the most outstanding tracks on the album. "Aurora" stays true to its name with a buildup composed of throbbing ethereal synths that give the track an otherworldly vibe. "Flood" transports listeners to the dancefloor with its pulsating bassline combined with Komplement's quaint vocals. The second part of the album begins with "After All", one of the most enticing tracks on the album. It combines the groovy rhythm of four-to-the-floor percussion with tantalizing vocals by VARS before "Low Tinnitus" reverts to Dapayk's signature minimalist sound. The transition into "Wanderer" continues the momentum built up by the previous tracks. The closing "Walk With Me" is a deep-house jam that features a rhythmic shaker layered under Mental Bend's powerful vocals. Dapayk Solo, alias Niklas Worgt, isn't afraid to try new things. With five aliases under his belt, he continuously strives to experiment with different styles and production techniques to create innovative sounds. Throughout the span of two decades he went from producing drum'n'bass to house to ultimately crafting the groovy, edgy techno sound that he's now known for. In 2017, he released an LP titled Harbour (FENOU 007CD/026LP) with his wife Eva Padberg under one of his many projects, Dapayk & Padberg. While that album aimed to steer away from traditional club beats, The Calling sees Dapayk reassume his deep, dark, and infectious sound. While Dapayk is often categorized as a minimal producer, the LP proves that he is capable of extending beyond the scope of a single genre. The Calling is just another example of why Dapayk has managed to stay in the scene for so long: he loves electronic music and he's great at making it, too. Includes free download code with four exclusive digital tracks: "Zoe's Intro", "Halo", "Angel's Share", and "Zoe's Outro".

Producer Niklas Worgt aka Dapayk Solo presents his fourth album, #nofilter. Since 1996, Worgt has been regarded as one of the most creative and versatile protagonists of Europe's club scene. Several projects for his label Mo's Ferry Prod., like the I Love Vinyl festival or his work on Dapayk & Padberg releases, have kept him busy since 2010. He finally got some solo time in the studio, and after having explored a more melodic and gentle side on his last two albums with Padberg (Smoke (MFP 067CD/LP, 2013) and Smoke (Family Remixes) (2014)), he now turns to more experimental, edgy productions. "I wanted the sound to be very focused," says Worgt about #nofilter -- more straightforward, more reduced, more analog and dirtier than "anything I have done before." On #nofilter he combines elements from his early days in breakbeat and drum and bass with minimal and tech-house, resulting in his very own unique signature sound, far off the beaten club-sound track. Worgt aims to challenge his audience, willing them to see that there is more than just one way of doing things. He's aware that "some of the tracks might not be for everyone at first glance. But it's always good to do things in an unexpected way, to change the listener's perspective." Worgt also shows his provocative and humorous side with the album title, statistically proven to be one of the most commonly used hashtags. "I wanted to look at the cliche of the big, gloomy nightclub, where everyone has to be credible and cool all the time, with a hint of humor. I think it's important to show people that there are different levels on which they can have fun and just enjoy themselves." #nofilter is a perfect demonstration of how much Dapayk Solo is enjoying himself and his work. "If you had asked me ten years ago where I would have seen myself today, I wouldn't have been able to give you a straight answer. If someone asks me that question now, I can say that I will definitely be making music."

Dapayk used to listen to a lot of hip-hop when he was younger and this 12" has those influences written all over it. The title track features vocals by singer Camara that harken '80s house music featuring some true soul and groove. "Nneka" is a deeper and more melodic tech house glider that gently takes the listener towards a harmonic state of mind. Finally, sample-based tech-house stomper "Upyo" features production partner Jon Hester.

Mathias Kaden and Henrik Schwarz remix their favorite tracks from Dapayk's Decade One (2000-2010) album. Kaden's remix of "All Eyes On You" seems to be aware of the efficiency of his loop, giving it time to develop without leaving people waiting for the drop longer than necessary. Schwarz's remix of "Back To Me" enriches the track with his saxophone variation. In addition to the original instruments, he uses a weird needle-scratch kind of sound to play the solo passages.

LEENA 017EP
|
Leena witnesses Dapayk Solo in full bloom and with space to breathe. "Berlin Bedlam" builds up layers upon layers of synths, paving the way for a break out of melodic charms. It's a cinematic soundscape that could be played at any number of stages over the course of the night. "Fawlty" is equally as melodic, but certainly fulfills the role of the calm after the storm. Minimal, but with musical flare, it's the perfect companion.

This is the third full-length release from Dapayk Solo (Niklas Worgt) on Mo's Ferry. Dapayk has been a producer and live act to be reckoned with for the last ten years. Starting in comfortable Thuringia, the Berlin-based musician can now look back on a decade of his work. So Dapayk's label Mo's Ferry gives us Decade One (2000-2010), a double album wrapped up beautifully with a thick booklet of pictures taken on the road over the last ten years. On CD1 he once again masters the balancing act between techno, house and a hint of broken beats and combines brand new tracks with refreshed classics. With this album, Dapayk takes a stronger approach to jazz and classic film score influences, which already played an important role on his previous album Devil's House (MFP 039CD). The second CD contains remixes of various Dapayk projects such as Dapayk Solo, Dapayk & Padberg or Dapayk & Midnight that were contributed by artists Oliver Koletzki, Exercise One, Florian Meindl, Pan Pot, Olene Kadar, Heinrichs & Hirtenfellner, Format:B, Tassilo, Dominik Eulberg, and Sebastian Russell.

Dapayk presents The Little Things You Do for Stil Vor Talent. "This Is The..." is an old-skool house track with syncopated vocal patches and typical Dapayk effects. Call it hypnotic house or groovy dance music, this will work very well on the floor. The remix by Niko Schwind is an uplifting source of tech-house that explodes like a box of firecrackers. "The Groove & Sound" features a percussive house groove with some great old-skool synthesizer action and delayed vocals.

10 Minutes Of Fame is Dapayk Solo's third single release from his album Devil's House. On the title track, a pounding beat meets fond memories of big techno events back in the '90s. Dapayk proves by the mix of rave signals and modern-minimal rhythm patterns that these oldschool hooks can still release their power, even at 126 BPM. "Child Of The Night" starts out quietly dark, but crescendos on a groove simply made of kick, hi-hat and hi-tuned bass line.

This is the second full-length release from Dapayk Solo on Mo's Ferry. Unlike its forerunner Impulsion Parasite (2006), the beats are less abstract, but topical and more breakbeat-like: you can't miss the straightness of these voluminous sounds. "Intro" features the cinematic shattering of a saw -- full of dark power. These powers continue on "Scratch The Surface," which should get the dancefloor pulsing, and "A Saw Attacks" is another sawtooth massacre mixed with breakbeats and minimalism. Dubstep and two samples also interweave on this track, so you don't have a single clue where electro starts and techno ends. New to Dapayk Solo productions are the tiny skits and small audio clips that separate and connect tracks, such as within "Better Stop Breathing," which leads over to "Vermo's House" and combines Dapayk's stumbling beats with a nasty sawing sound. "Road to Boesendorf" is a relaxing piano etude, before "Right Here With Me" starts. On "Berlin Amo," two-step beats and electro marry without trouble and gives hints as to where Berlin's musical journey might be going."Child Of The Night" is dark minimal and "How Low" evokes the depths of the bass matched with incisive, questioning vocals. The beatless snippet "Strings Attached" leads to the melancholic "Niro," which connects dubstep a la Burial and minimalism. "Skit" -- a clip with an acoustic guitar -- leads over to "A Wave That Leads You Home." This album is an emotional dancefloor joyride -- a detailed and exciting rollercoaster that is packed with Dapayk's trademark sounds and new influences you'll want to experience over and over again.

This two-track 12" by Dapayk Solo announces the release of his second album Devil's House. "Devil's House" elicits a proper bass response -- pure frickelsound that pays attention to details. "A Saw Attacks" is sporty staccato minimal, while a full-stereo sawtooth sound and a demonic vocal sample take the lead, pushed by a strong punchy kick drum and accompanied by a sound design of clicks and sweeps.

Dapayk makes devastating techno for labels including Orac, Trapez, Karloff, and his own Mo's Ferry. The title track of this EP is an 11-minute long epic of dubbed-out crackles and rumbles that give way to a martial beat, liquid synths and organic percussion. "Saaa" continues the dark cabaret vibe and aims its weaponry straight at more adventurous dancefloors. "Way" features a sleepy, swirling collage and the echoing voice of a lonely old cowboy. Evocative, danceable stuff.

"Mo's Ferry release #29 is part 2 of the remix series for Dapayk Solo's Impulsion Parasite album. The record begins with the winner of the 'Hollis' remix contest -- C.Drummond aka The Wolves Outside. The Canadian stood up to countless others and provides weird grooves and cut-up funk, that shows creativity at its best. Rrygular and Apnea act From Karaoke to Stardom impresses his distinctive seal on the unofficial Dapayk hymn 'Marek Stolpert.' He leaves the deepness of the original, but puts his remix on a level of more minimal detailedness without losing sight of the crowded dancefloor. Mobilee's Pan-Pot, also referred as 'The (Cooking) Pots' or 'The Three Funny Two,' bury the snippets of original track 'Hagen' in an abyssal bass arrangement and conjure a floorburner with maximum functionality. To complete the record there's Mathias Kaden's version of 'Warteballmusik.' With the help of his live-recorded bongo percussions, he adds a flair of an after-hour classic to the funky original."

Now, Mo's Ferry Prod. presents the RMXs Part 1 with adaptations by Louderbach, Butane, Tanith and 3dots. The tracks are as diverse as the remixers themselves and show in what plurality and variety Dapayk's music is recognized and interpreted."

"After his devilish ride on the 'Polenpony,' Dapayk Solo returns to the underwoods, wading deeply in the beats and calibrating his ears close to the limits of perception. He still knows how to induce strategic black-outs, but this time the fog breaks up to clear the way for more bouncing stuff on the plate. Grainy emery funk fuses with primary dancefloor stimulation to present some of the straightest floorkillers ever made by this guy. While the blood-freezing breaks keep stumbling through the weirdest sounds, especially 'Salieri' sets up for this evil wave leading back to bleepy business. Captured in this deep impression one wonders what just happened, but it's been dazzingly beautiful to take a header. It's still always impressive to see that what one can only dream of, just takes the twinkle of an eye for others."

"Niklas Worgt who gained big reputation with his project Dapayk & Padberg and already appeared on labels like Karloff as well as running his very own Mo's Ferry Records indeed heralds the winter season with his latest creation. The Fat Kid's Choice 12" could be an overture to a delightful winter night party. Exciting, laced with dry, dirty electronic bass-driven tech grooves mixed with bubblegum sleazy vocals while always groovy in the lower frequencies, Dapayk will surely take over the dancefloors."
