POESIE 041CD
|
Following the much-loved second volume (POESIE 014CD, 2014), Wankelmut is back with the third edition of his Wankelmoods compilation series. It is a fine window into his unique musical mind which packs lots of moods and grooves into its standout 24 tracks. This self-proclaimed "minimal electronica imp with a knack for rock remixes" hails from Berlin. He's played all over Europe, clocked up a few chart hits such as "My Head Is A Jungle", and now this latest mix finds him in fine form. It includes two of his own recent hits released on Modernsoul/Fine, in the form "I Keep Calling" (Club Mix) with Björn Dixgård -- the lead singer of the Mando Diao -- and "Almost Mine", featuring Charlotte OC and remixed by Mat.Joe, both of which are standouts in the compilation. The mix kicks off with the emotive but driving deep house of Wayward's "Orissa", which is awash with celestial synths and heavenly vocals. Then the drums pick up with cuts from Worthy, a remix from Defected's star man Franky Rizardo, and one from Return Of The Jaded which is all clipped drums and silvery percussion. UK talent Huxley then appears remixing Santé's track featuring Stereo MC's and brings big drums, warm bass, and twisted vocals that settle you into a heads-down groove. Esteemed artists like Gerd Janson and Shan, Tube & Berger, and Wankelmut himself offer twists and turns through pounding house, piano-laced jams, and big vocal anthems. An infectious and loopy brand of tech house defines the absorbing mid-section, as Wankelmut continues to serve up smooth, coherent mixes that always bring something new with each new addition but never disrupt the overall flow of the mix. Touchstones of the scene like Nick Curly, Hot Since 82, and Kölsch keep you on your toes, before the final part of the mix takes thing back down to moody territory that is perfect for the late-night hours with tracks from the likes of Sasha and Djuma Soundsystem and Westerby. This is an ambitious mix that manages to maintain energy levels while proving perfectly unpredictable as it unfolds. Also features Whitesquare, Nils Hoffmann, Forrest, Björn Dixgard, Illyus, Barrientos, Emanuel Satie, George Vala, Kato Change, Riot Stereo, SURAJ, Floyd Lavine, Pablo Fierro, Zoo Brazil, Mendo, Animal Trainer, Joe Goddard, Solee, Martin Landsky, Reboot, Andre Lodemann, Adriatique, BehrEllips, Crazy White Boy, Poliça, and Hammer.

POESIE 014CD
|
Since the fall of 2012, Wankelmut has become a sort of household name. Attracting the attention of young and old alike, it's his emphasis on groove and his pop-sensibilities that have helped keep him relevant since his breakthrough phenomenon "One Day/Reckoning Song." But it was his follow-up, "My Head Is a Jungle," and now his brand-new single "Wasted So Much Time" that truly prove he's more than just a one-trick-pony. Besides that, playing almost 100 DJ shows annually all over the world and countless remixes put him on the map permanently in recent months. Now Wankelmut returns from the studio with another magnum opus, the second installment of the aptly-named Wankelmoods series. The first volume featured some of the best names in deep and tech-house while topping iTunes charts, among others, as one of the best compilations of 2013, selling 10,000+ copies. Wankelmoods Vol. 2 with 19 tracks in the mix is ready to provide the soundtrack for the summer of '14 -- again, melting big club-tracks with relatively unknown underground gems to form one big 80-minute mix with a very captivating flow. He guides us through a great musical journey, going from the great melodic deep house intro-track by Ricoshei through classic house music like the Santé remix for Zoo Brazil, to contemporary tech-house tracks done by Adriatique or Kollektiv Turmstrasse. Other artists include: Ian Pooley, Stimming, Talisco, Booka Shade, Chopstick & Johnjon, Chasing Kurt, Konstantin Sibold, The Glitz, Sidney Charles, Nice7, Sable Sheep, Dilby, Markus Homm, Marvin Hey & Ferdinand Dreyssig, Lake People, Climbers, Siopis, Laika & Strelka, Schlepp Geist, and Maceo Plex & Maars.

GPM 258EP
|
Get Physical welcomes Wankelmut to the family with a four-track EP including remixes from tech-house legend Ian Pooley and Fabio Giannelli. The title-track spins a light, melancholic atmosphere with heavy percussion and heated synth crescendos. A delicate piano floats over the track, while the kicks drive the energy higher. Ian Pooley reduced the track to its essentials, creating a deep vibe. "Rascals" is a lighter track with the focus on rhythmic synth rather than heavy kicks or bass. Fabio Giannelli twists a dark tale from "Rascals" with what has become his signature sound -- heavy kicks, epic bass and dark vibes.

Here is a mix compilation from the man behind the huge success of the remix of "One Day/Reckoning Song" by Asaf Avidan And The Mojos, Jacob Dilßner aka Wankelmut -- a 24 year-old student and Berlin resident. This seemingly overnight underground to overground sensation took the scene by surprise with a single track, no label and no promotion -- proof that music can, in fact, speak for itself. Fast-forward 8 months; Wankelmut has found himself at the center of a storm; with his track catapulting to number one across nearly all charts imaginable, across eight European countries and the #1 spot on multiple platforms -- Beatport, iTunes and the official single charts, simultaneously -- a fact never achieved before, representing a huge step for dance music history. Get Physical/Poesie Musik proudly presents: Wankelmoods Vol. 1. Opening with the relaxed hustle of Acid Pauli's dub mix of "El Zahir," original by Raz Ohara, Wankelmut sets the tone for the 80-minute mix, preparing your mood for the vibe of Black Light Smoke on "Lovework (DJ T. Remix)." The mix continues in this fashion, gliding from one mood to another. By the time you get to "We Don't Give Up the Boyz" by Hufschlag & Braun, you're warmed up and ready for Wankelmut's brand-new exclusive remix of Jay Haze's (feat. Big Bully and Sven VT), "Soul in a Bottle," elegantly blended into one another, showcasing his talent and style as a DJ. The mix reflects also his captivating brand of blending genres from deep house to techno into one coherent piece of art. Expect a few gems from andhim, Rodriguez Jr., Jonas Woehl, Âme and Adam Port, also; all beautifully stitched together with a deep and sexy vibe. Other artists include: Marcus Sur, Slackwax, Findling & Pele, Nico Stojan, Super Flu, Andreas Henneberg & SQL, Marc De Vole & Patrick Muschiol, Turm 3, Information Ghetto, Brian Sanhaji & Drumcell, Rashid Ajami, Ramon Tapia, Schleppstigg and Ry & Frank Wiedemann.
