This is the debut collaborative album from Marek Hemmann and Fabian Reichelt as Marian. The longtime Freude-am-Tanzen artist Marek Hemmann is recognized as a great tone-romantic amongst the techno live artisans, which immediately makes him a candidate for musical integration, demonstrated by his releases as a soloist as well as part of the duo Hemmann & Kaden. The typical Hemmann sound is a reduced, housey electro-sonic, often swinging, at times melancholic, but always with a dreamy security set with rhythm accents. In 2009, Hemmann released his full-length debut In Between (FREUDE 004CD/LP), and with that he managed to craft electronic sound stories into album-length. In singer Fabian Reichelt, Hemmann found a brother in spirit. Reichelt had previously been established in the acoustic scene, and had his start at 25 in the electronic realm. As a live vocalist, he has been a rather exotic figure in the house and techno arena and for that reason alone, he is now quite the man about town. Their first release, the Left/Right EP was a bonafide hit, and this work melodically continues that work. Only Our Hearts To Lose is music that goes further than merely from the dancefloor to the bar. It is music that makes space for your own thoughts, telling stories in classic song structures without sacrificing the unique aesthetic. Yes, this is pop music at its best: electronic, melodic, driven and naturally suitable for the club. Only Our Hearts To Lose is like sharing a moment on the club floor or on the balcony, between a tender sunrise and the deepest dance night.
