Founded in 2007, Desolat is a renowned record label based in Dusseldorf, Germany. It emerged from the creative journey of two close friends who made a bold decision to leave their home country behind and relocate to Brooklyn, New York. In the midst of this change, they established a new studio and dedicated themselves to producing fresh tracks, seeking solace and inspiration in the vibrant city.
During their time in creative seclusion, a powerful idea was conceived—an idea that would become the next significant step in their profound connection. This vision materialized in July 2007 with the birth of Desolat.
Loco Dice and Martin Buttrich, both established figures in the music industry, embarked on this ambitious venture to create an independent and efficient platform for releasing music they genuinely appreciate. Drawing upon their extensive artistic backgrounds, they embraced the challenge and channeled their expertise into forming Desolat, a label that embodies their passion and love for music.
Today, Desolat stands as a respected label within the music community, showcasing a diverse range of talented artists and delivering captivating releases. With its roots firmly planted in Dusseldorf, Germany, Desolat continues to shape the electronic music landscape, driven by the shared vision and unwavering commitment of Loco Dice and Martin Buttrich.
Review: Teheranian Berlin-based producer NYMA has so many influences it makes you wonder why and how he landed at techno's door. We're glad he did though regardless of the where, whys and what-ifs because of his uniquely refreshing beat-laden style. Twisting and turning through a catalogue of deep, groovy and experimental inspirations, this five track EP makes a valiant attempt at dissecting NYMA's creative mind. From the eastern beats of "RIP" to the harder, old-school sounds of "Fake People" and "The XXX File", whether he's in the past or the present, it makes no difference, this man will create something totally unique. Final track "U4Euh" is a stunningly dark, doom-laden beauty, worth every penny of the EP put together. Go on, you deserve it.
