Label:	A TOUCH OF CLASS (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	ATC 017EP

"The man who released on Background Records, Traum/Trapez and remixed Akufen in the past, and just recently surprised us with his debut album Subject Carrier as well as delivers his first House EP with four tracks spiked with steady beats, deep melodic chords and an overall Chicago House feel. This is not only very well produced digital housemusic, its also a journey through deepness and a modern take on the soulful side of the electronic music which exceeds the genre by far with a a rich, colourful palette of surprising, individual sounds, butter-smooth chords, some of the most raunchiest bassline that you'll ever hear outside of drum'n'bass, cleverly constructed beat patterns that yet never fail to jack and swing and an understanding of dub that goes far beyond the random use of echo and effects."

Title:	Subject Carrier
Label:	TRAPEZ (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.50
Catalog #:	TRAPEZ 003CD

"Trapez is happy to release the first album of Oliver Hacke. An album is full of new tracks and different styles. From the shuffle to the straight, from the funky to polar driven atmospheric tracks which he is also famous for. Releasing on Trapez and its sublabels as well as on the domestic label background, the Duesseldorf based Oliver Hacke has so far not delivered a clear picture of himself. Who is the man that gave us Polar 1, the walking bass epics on the 'Clip' EP, 'Der Vampir von Duesseldorf' or his fantastic remix on Akufen's 'Psychometry iii'. The album makes an attempt to give answers to that question. With subject carrier, Oliver Hacke, who is very much interested in contemporary electronic music, pays tribute to revolutionary development in techno and house during the last 5 years, fusing it with his own ideas of sound design/mastering and dynamics. Influenced by artists such as: Cristian Vogel, Neil Landstrumm, as well as Herbert and Thomas Brinkmann, he has added an universal but individual flavor to this album. Subject Carrier is not a mere collection of music collected over the years, but has been recorded for this occasion."

Title:	Subject Carrier Remixes
Label:	TRAPEZ (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	TRAPEZ 054EP

"On this 12" you will find two remixes of the outstanding Oliver Hacke LP Subject Carrier that was released in 2004 on Trapez. The remix EP involves prominent U.S. producer and DJ John Tejada (Palette) and rising artist Alex Under. John Tejada has transformed the minimal groover '6:04' into a techno epic with ups and downs. Deep parts and quirky sequences were added, creating a masterpiece of music. If you like bass-lines this track will be in your top list. On the flip-side, Alex Under has developed a hypnotic Spanish techno groover with Detroit techno trance elements out of the original track '7:03.'"

Title:	Dues and Needs
Label:	TRAPEZ (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	TRAPEZ LTD072

Oliver Hacke presents his Dues and Needs EP for Trapez Ltd. "Mangroves To The Lagoons" is a malaria-induced, dreamy but pounding groover which is packed so heavily with tropical sounds, that the humidity in clubs will rise within seconds. Super-bassy and merciless, but still sexy. "Bisou" is claustrophobic in the beginning, but the jazzy bass line breaks open the door. Clicky percussion and the melody make the track even more playful. What a tune.
