LITERON - Freak Function

Fishing

Literon, Gerd's techno disguise, created a raw beastlike sound that has a shit load of solid funk and is designed for dancing. "Freak Funktion" sounds ridiculously cool.

TRIPEO - Untitled #1

























Hypnotic techno. As soon as you think you've figured "Untitled #1" out, it just sidesteps on you. You're always one step behind, whether you like it or not. Those seven minutes of playtime are definitely worth it because you can never predict the direction Tripeo's going with his track.

MY #1 TRACK FOR 2013

























Almost ten months ago I posted "Siglum" as the second track ever on the Muziekbeer. For me, this remix by Duyster has never lost it's magic. Every time I listen to it I'm stupefied by the synthesisers. They scream and shout so loud it's ridiculous yet Duyster finds room to let them sound peaceful and serene. 

The other tracks of my list:

MY #2 TRACK FOR 2013

























Max Cooper is one of the most influential deejays at this moment. With his experimental electronica he either hits an emotional snare or he just blows you away. And when I first listened to "Walls" I was blown away.

MARCEL DETTMANN - Lightworks



In an old interview with Ben Klock I learned how fascinated Dettmann and him are with the whole idea of minimalism. I suddenly understood why Klock titled his album One and Marcel named his I. Putting as little as possible in your tracks and still make them sound challenging and fascinating is an interesting process. How much, or how little, is needed to grab your attention? Only Marcel Dettmann knows the answer to that question.
