TREIB 096EP
|
Diego Hostettler presents his premiere on Treibstoff, extending his palette and integrating several flavors of funk into his set-up, stretching the well-lubricated machinery and producing brilliant results. This record is a loveletter and an indispensable tool for all those DJs that still take their job seriously and who haven't forgotten about their roots: the club. We all live off air, love... and sweat.

"Instant Reality -- the 5th album by Diego Hostettler is a total clash of hard but funky techno tracks and smooth nu-jazz listening tracks. The LP with it's 8 essential techno bangers, concentrates more on the DJ aspects, whilst the CD contains a couple of nice listening pearls on top."

"On his new 12" 'Two Times High' Diego combines the energetic and rough techno power of his early Kanzleramt works with the deep melodic flavour of The Persuasion Channel (his last album). You´ll find some links to old-school-Chicago-jack-techno grooves & basslines in the b-side track 'Hi Jacker' as well. 'Two Times High' comes as a strong DJ-Tool with Body and Soul."

"The Persuasion Channel -- Being exposed to the media`s efforts to manipulate us day by day, we constantly lose control of our liberal opinion-forming. In this connection the television as Persuasion Channel plays a significant role: 'Call us immediately... only a few copies left... this unique offer... exclusively for our best clients... recommended by experts... xy has changed my life... therefore I can really give advice to all of you...' Or more subtly in terms of deliberately chosen dialectics belonging to a reporting, that comes objective at first sight. Even listening to The Persuasion Channel the very first time, it appears musically more mature, less aggressive, more feelingly but not less energetic than Diego´s last-year debut album Mouth full of fresh cut flowers. A retry to fill functional Techno with contents that surpass pure drum-programming and thereby provide an alternative to the doctrine of the simple Loop-Techno."
