The artist formerly known as "wildjamin" started his career by producing ambient in the early nineties. In 1996, his focus turned to house/minimal dance music -- inspired by the vivid Frankfurt (underground/house) scene. When he moved to Hamburg in 1999 a series of fine minimalistic records were released on labels like Perlon, Kompakt, Force Tracks, Festplatten. 2002 saw his first album: With Compliments followed by Wie es sein wollte in 2003. Demain is bouncing, groovy minimal tech-house from a perfectionist master.

Title:	Musik Am Morgen
Label:	REWIND (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$8.00
Catalog #:	REWIND 01

"Next to the 2 step blueprint of Artful Dodger rewind above all signifies an audible backspin of a vinyl hit on reggae dances, if the crowd demands it. Rewind now also stands for a subdivision of Decode, a Hamburg-based label for electronic music, which wants to show its enthusiasm and admiration for King Tubby´s endless echo-chambers and Lee Perry´s innovative sound-modifications without forgetting about its musical inspiration through cities like Detroit, Berlin or Cologne. Although Rewind will predominantly concentrate on the classical disco 12" the label will also put a focus on sounds, playfulness and charm. This is represented by the first release from Hamburg-based Benjamin Wild and upcoming 12"'s by Dub Star aka C-Rock and Duffer Swift, who already has released on Decode. After Benjamin Wild's rather minimal and more abstract release on Perlon (20 - 'Verschiebungen') 'Musik Am Morgen' is closer to his Kompakt 12" with a strong dub influence which makes him a many-faced musician."

Title:	Wis Es Sein Wollte
Label:	SOURCE RECORDS (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	SOURCE 044CD

"Not just since the release of With Compliments for Force Inc., is Benjamin Wild one of Germany's favorite electronic music producers. Benjamin can look back on a impressive recording career with releases for Kompakt, Perlon, Force Tracks and Morris/Audio and a total of six collaboration albums for frankfurts Fax Records. His second album project: Wie Es Sein Wollte brings it all to the point. Everything fits perfectly in place and Benjamin shows us with striking clarity why we love and need electronic music. Minimal House, subliminal dub, digital artefacts and warm pulsating chords, merge, creating sublimely funky elegant and grooving tracks. bouncing, sexy, sensual, swinging, soothing... Benjamin Wilds music is filled with warmth and positive energy, reduced to the essence, in this case the blending of musical and rhythmical elements, well balanced arrangements, peace pours from the speakers soaring effortlessly, grooving from the first to the last track. timeless, weightless, extremely funky, relaxed and fluid: '.....genau so wollte es sein' and so it always wanted to be."
