Review: The 11th installment of the "Stil vor Talent Berlin" compilation series brings us back to the vibrant capital, showcasing a mix of familiar and fresh contributors gathered under the thematic charm of Berlin's iconic Spreepark. Once a flourishing fairground along the Spree River, Spreepark's enchanting history and eventual reclamation by nature create a captivating backdrop for this musical journey. The compilation features a diverse array of talents such as Jan René Lai, Kellerkind, Deckert & Sascha Home, and more, promising a dynamic blend of sounds. As Berlin continues its efforts to revive Spreepark, this compilation serves as a melodic ode to the city's evolving cultural landscape, with the promise of a renewed and vibrant Spreepark set to welcome the public in 2026.
Review: Story has it that Oliver Koletzki took a vacation in Tulum, Mexico just as the pandemic hit. Making a temporary base for himself in the new surroundings, he created his first full length since 2007 entitled Made Of Wood. "Made of Cashmere" is the second single to come out in advance of his ninth album's release, and is a slinky and hypnotic serving of mood music sure to create tension and suspense on the dance floor. This is followed by the folkloric sounds of "Serpiente Del Rio".
Review: Stil Vor Talent head honcho Oliver Koletzki takes up the reins for his beloved label's next release, which just so happens to be his ninth full length titled Made Of Wood. Leading up to its much anticipated release on the 16th of July, Koletzki presents the first of two advance EPs here with the track "Copal' capturing the essence of his approach. He delves deep into the exotic on this one; a Middle Eastern-influenced deep house chugger that is at once meditative yet utterly mesmerising. Making a transition to the main room is "Cryptozoology" featuring Walter Scalzone, where he injects more dancefloor dynamics into proceedings. Hypnotic and syncopated tabla drums are an integral element as before, with the addition of glistening keys and moody textures.
