Who would have thought that, when Oliver Koletzki released his ‘Blackout’ EP as SVT001 almost eight years ago, Stil vor Talent would reach the catalogue number 100? With our 100th release, we can look back on lots of fantastic music, music by artists who have become part of a close-knit family of friends. On the surprising and unexpected, as well as a signature sound in constant development. Here, on the second of two vinyl releases we showcase some of the highlights of ‘Oliver Koletzki Presents Stil vor Talent 100’.

On the A-side, Niconé & Sascha Braemer’s ‘Wish U’ will clearly cause a stir on the dance-floor: bright synths, cheerful vocals and a 90s rave piano, what more does one want? Next, Ryan Dupree targets the peak-time with menacing synths and acidic bass-lines and thus surprises with a darker than usual sound.

Speaking of the 90s, Animal Trainer’s ‘Mental’ has a comparably old-school vibe to ‘Wish U’ and will make for an epic set closer: break-beat percussion and a stunning vocal dominate here. To close the EP, Björn Störig collaborates with all-rounder Meggy to create a piano-driven vocal house track with a classic feel. Perfection!
