GEM 004CD
|
Egbert has skyrocketed to being one of the world's top players in the techno scene. Within a short period of time, he has managed to create a rapidly growing fan base who have all been avidly waiting for him to release an album for some time now. Egbert finally releases Warm on Secret Cinema's Gem Records. His story has been an exciting rollercoaster ride, going from being discovered by Secret Cinema through Myspace, to being picked up by Cocoon and their booking agency and now touring the globe as a part of the Gem and Bonheur agency roster. The album takes you on a trip through Egbert's vision of melodic techno... well-produced and euphoric but without stepping into known territory. In his own words: "One thing I often miss at techno parties is warmth. I would like to bring that back to techno." While his live sets are usually filled with percussion and rhythm, this album compiles the tracks that bring warmth to his set. We also get a taste of Egbert's raw side with the powerful pumping grooves and punishing dark bass lines on "Tegno" and "Shulgin." There's even a new flavor added to the versatile producer's palate with the trippy ambient sounds of "Ondergronds" and "Trip." Download code for mp3 included.

GEM 027EP
|
For the past years, Egbert has been remixing, touring and working on his album Warm. After residing at the top of the techno charts for months with his remix of "Watch Me Now" by D-Nox & Beckers, Egbert is finally back with his own EP. This is a very highly-anticipated release and Egbert doesn't disappoint. All three tracks are serious crowd-pleasers, but in their own way. From in-your-face big-room techno through melodic, anthemic tech-house to watermelon ball minimal, this EP has it all.

COR 079EP
|
Egbert Van Der Gugten is one of the most promising talents of the Dutch electronic music scene with good cause. Open celebrates the junction between European progressive house tradition, Detroit melancholy, and tech house with a heart full of pumping energy and decorative ornamentation in a multi-faceted and tremendously charming way. "Open" is a sensual über-track whose incredibly beautiful break sends one shiver after the other down your spine. "Strak" features sonic-electric energy around a percussive staccato of bells.

GEM 004EP
|
One of techno's fastest rising stars brings his strongest EP to date with two huge tracks. "Haasten" (trans. "hurrying") has been destroying crowds during Egbert's live sets around the globe for the past few months. A dark, commanding bass line that skips over the beat is accompanied by a retro-sounding orchestral jab. "Yourself" is paving the way for the future of percussion-based techno with punishing drums, deep basses, narrow mids and rattling hats that kick ass.

COR 068EP
|
Egbert Van Der Gugten's Vlammen EP on EC Records was a bomb on the dancefloors and belonged to the basic vinyl inventory of Sven Väth's record case. With "Vreugdevuur," he provides a musical exclamation mark that sets standards in harmonic but demanding tech-house somewhere in between dub, progressive house and Detroit. A different approach is taken by "Groots Uitpakken," with its energetic wall of sound -- a nocturnal trip through slow-motion vocal tatters, whose string breaks provide an irresistible pull.
