DOGTOWN 007EP
|
"Fresh from going stateside with Nick Chacona and Jerome Sydenham, we are very happy to bring Einmusik on board on the Dogtown label for release 007. Einmusik is the solo project from Samuel Kindermann & has caught a lot of attention this year with his De Medici album on Italic and his Diynamic release together with Stimming. His 'Jittery Heritage' track from 2005, which was licensed by Virgin, is one of those classics that will stand the test of time. 'K5000' is pure peaktime goodness built for the dancefloor. Expect some manipulated beats with an amazing drive ending up with a climax of snares, this has all the right ingredients to make it another Einmusik classic. We defy anyone to stand still when this one drops. 'Ehrfurcht' has more epic proportions with delicate and subtle layers of melody washing around a threatening bass line ... one hell of a mental track."

ITALIC 078EP
|
"After his successful album De Medici, Einmusik aka producer Samuel Kindermann, presents two brand new and unreleased tracks. 'Ammond' on the A-side offers a flashy and spectacular experience: this track is a brilliant blend of manipulated beats, traditional 4-to-the-floor techniques, futuristic decor and of alienated synth effects. 'Challenge' on the B-side has a truly outstanding and unusual melody: fantastic images will rapidly take root in your head, will be absorbed and distributed throughout the whole body. In both tracks, computer-generated sequences alternate with analog bass lines and phase modulation. Finally, on the dancefloor, everything re-materializes again. Einmusik's new single release could provide the perfect soundtrack for the sequel to Tron."

"Is anyone out there who still has not heard anything about Wasted German Youth? 'No slogan better sums up the current state of German nightlife than Wasted German Youth ... Wasted German Youth doesn't look much like the reappropriated clichés fueling new rave. If anything, it's more punk in spirit -- as filtered through Raf Simons...' --Philip Sherburne/Pitchfork Media. Berlin-based artist and graphic designer Paul Snowden is initiator of both slogan and fashion label. His friends from Einmusik have made the soundtrack for Wasted German Youth. And as Einmusik's art director, Paul Snowden is again responsible for the cover design of the new record Half Moon Tiger, after internationally renowned and extremely successful releases such as Jittery Heritage and Kleine Nachtmusik. And like the cover design, like Einmusik's music: simple and highly effective. 'Half Moon Tiger' is minimal, deep, sexy and with a kicking bass line. And suddenly you realize that it's midday and you still have not made it back home. 'Saw & Backings' is great fun: retro rave with an unhealthy life-style. The EP finishes off with 'Pion,' a track between Afro-rave and cosmic disco with a cool, robot-like melody and a Bobby Konders bass line. THE KIDS WANT TECHNO."

ITALIC 044EP

"After Einmusik have manifested their sound still more deeply in the cases and playlists of DJs like Ivan Smaghe (Black Strobe), Slam (Soma), Monika Kruse, Karotte, DJ Koze, Paul van Dyk, etc. They present the second part of the Jittery Heritage EP. 'Jittery Heritage' on the a-side begins with a monumental beat and increases slowly by pushing sounds of keyboards until the melody began. From now on you are in heaven... Perhaps the track with most kitsch appeal so far. Hit! 'Rings' on the b-side carried by the very unusual beat construction with hell-like sounds, deep bassdrum and the suggested acid melody line. Heavy metall!"

"Einmusik is the 'Techno Boygroup' consisting of the DJs Cranque & Unique, together with the producer Nicol from Hamburg. The music of Einmusik is somewhere between 'minimal pop' and 'bombastic techno', without ever losing sight of what some critics might call kitsch. The three have been influenced by contrasting musical experiences: Drum ´n´ Bass, Gabba and Techno."
