Label:	BRUT! RECORDS (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	BRUT 001EP

"After a string of fantastic releases on the much-missed label Scheinselbstaendig and indie-major Force Tracks, Hamburg's best hidden talent Drei Farben House debuts on Brut! On the A-side, 'On My Side (Daso Remix)' comes in the form of an energetic remix by the excellent Daso. following from his successful release on Connaisseur, Daso adventures himself again on techno terrains turning the light-hearted original into a moody dancefloor track. On the B-side, Drei Farben House does what he knows best: to provide us with a delicate balance of minimal house and pop sensibilities. The original of 'On My Side' comes in a more uplifting way, bringing us the brighter moments of the windy autumn days and 'Nightly Affairs' finishes the whole in a more dramatic manner, full of emotional strings and deep chords."

Title:	Any Kind of Feeling
Label:	FORCE TRACKS (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.50
Catalog #:	FTS 074CD

Drei Farben House is a pop-house project by Hamburg-based producer Michael Siegle. Following his 12" release on Force Tracks, with a stunning Unai remix, Michael Siegle is ready to take off. His first album Any Kind of Feeling continues the Force Tracks series of first class albums: digital disco for pop lovers. Not unlike Swedish producer Unai, this album conveys the desire for sensation and emotion in music. Siegle strips house down to its basic elements. The stuttering synth-disco groove picks up the extraordinary moments of late disco sound. And Siegle adds the key elements of pop music, drastic harmonies and bittersweet melodies combined with jumbled-sounding guitar riffs. Siegle's voice is a perfect supplement to the music, a very neutral voice -- dry and distinct. With only a few pure elements, Siegle creates the atmosphere of a very melancholic autumn night. It's the imagination of resignation, but also a yearning for something, which cannot be articulated. An album of full-blooded melodrama.

Title:	Blending Days
Label:	KUPEI MUSIKA
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	KUPEI 002CD

"After a series of extraordinary releases on the legendary Force Tracks label, Berlin resident Michael Siegle debuts on Kupei with his second full-length. Aptly titled Blending Days, the album is full of deep chords, reverberated delays and multilayered organic sounds. It captures a desire to bring seductive melodies and harmonies -- as well as -- sensation and elegance back to minimal house. Siegle's voice adds a very distinctive, bittersweet element to his crafty blend of indie-pop and stylish disco-house. Tracks like 'Conspicuous' provide a perfect backdrop for equally dour days -- the kind of music one will play while driving the Autobahn on an overcast autumn day. The funky little noise sounds add a very interesting offbeat to the tight kick and bass grooves. Instrumentals like 'Karussell Der Puppen' provide us with a more dub feel, adding synth-disco stabs and rumbling bass to the mix. His best talent, however, lies in providing great fragmented hooks throughout the record. Whether it is a catchy repetitive vocal line, synth-stab or melodic bass line, he sounds very comfortable in his own skin -- unpretentious. This fragile quality makes his production aesthetic more closely connected to the indie scene than to the slick, usually superficial Berlin party house scene."

Title:	As Long As It Lasts
Label:	SCHEINSELBSTÄNDIG (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	SST 011EP

"Hello, after a much too long release break Scheinselbständig is back in the game. With house music from Hamburg: Drei Farben House. The Hamburg resident Michael Siegle combines catchy harmonies and the aesthetics of minimalism. Drei Farben House brings pop ('I Somehow Know This Sound....!') and modern house structures together. Strings and vocals meet up as well as old school house-bass-drums and Rhodes melodies. Delay and dub are no foreign language in this concept. But be aware: harmony does not mean a lack of straightness. Somewhere in its center this is still techno."
