Oliver Koletzki
Finding Love
Continuing his pursuit of the most anthemic next thrill, Stil vor Talent head exec Oliver Koletzki returns to the label with a vengeance.
Fusing reggaean vibrations with that new wavey techno sensibility of his (think Depeche Mode on a trip to Kingston, Jamaica), ‘Finding Love’ sees Koletzki exploring the frontier between downtempo Caribbean pop and a pure driving electro throb. Shifting gears between a proper broken techno backbone onto the further syncopated alphabet of low-slung dance hall vocals, ‘Finding Love’ alternates sequences of sheer vaporous oneirism with that of a fleet-footed bassy workout laced with splatters of 80s synth-pop, ready to set any dance floor ablaze and turn entire crowds of ravers upside down.
Up on remix duty, Berlin-based French producer Temple Tears punches in with a distinctly stealth weapon for the darker hours of the night. All in sturdier bass curves and jacking punch, the track is bound to cut a path of destruction this summer with its untamed EBM horsepower and hard-nosed house bounce straight out the basement. A Janus-faced single, providing the DJs with two very different levels of club oomph and situational response.
