Robag Wruhme, Rolando, Resoe
We can't help it, but four-to-the-floor beats have been our prefered soundtrack to the new year so far.
The first two weeks of 2011 have provided us with a solid dose of excellent techno releases - from subtle masterpieces like Robag Wruhme's new mix album more...
It's no secret that Robag Wruhme is an eccentric genius behind the decks. For years he has been touring the globe as one half of hugely popular German DJ outfit Wighnomy Brothers until the duo's breakup in 2009.
Released by Cologne's mighty Kompakt imprint, 'Wuppdeckmischmampflow' is Wruhme's first commercial mix album and a follow-up to the Wighnomy Brothers' 'Metawuffmischfelge', released in 2008 on Freude Am Tanzen.
The two not only have similarly idiosyncratic titles in common, but also a collage-like mixing style.
Rarely has Robag Wruhme less than two tracks running at the same time: Villalobos' 'Dexter' for instance can be made out in much of the mix's first half, while Moderat's 'Rusty Nails' is given a house make-over, and Claro Intelecto's 'Hunt You Down' gracefully blended with DJ Koze's WhoMadeWho dub and Four Tet's 'Angel Echoes'.
'Wuppdeckmischmampflow' is no sheer display of mash-up skills however. Wruhme's particular style of micro-house is never devoid of emotion, and this album's foremost goal is to create an enticing flow that breaks up minimalistic techno passages with tender moments, from its dreamy start to melancholic finish. Outstanding.
