IV 009LP
|
Double LP version. Gatefold sleeve. In the world of electronic dance music, Âme stand apart. Since 2003, the duo of Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer have cut a singular path through techno, house, minimal, ambient, and more with their anthemic singles and mixes. But 2018 reveals their finest achievement yet, their second full-length album Dream House. It both sounds unmistakably like Âme and unlike anything you've ever heard from the duo, an evocative home listening journey enacted after 15 years spent crafting dancefloor weapons. Features Matthew Herbert, Gudrun Gut, Planningtorock, Jens Kuross (ex-drummer for RyX), and Roedelius.

IV 028EP
|
After exploring technoid territories, Âme are back with a deep house EP. It is very much infiltrated with a Duchamp-esque way of approaching artistic objects: ready-made, self-referencing and perpetuating. So musically, perpetuum mobile (ital. "Moto perpetua" by Niccolò Paganini) elements push forward into mesmerizing loops. The future is nearer than in most contemporary deep house releases. Typically amazing Innervisions die-cut sleeve.

IV 022EP
|
Every Âme 12" is, as always, the result of a work-in-progress. "Setsa" fuses prepared piano from John Cage with some classic house roots, while "Ensor" is the steamroller which comes out of some dark basement techno club in the early '90s. Sadly, The Sound Factory is already gone.

OSTGUT 010EP
|
Kristian Beyer and Frank Wiedemann are Âme. In the spring of 2007, they contributed a 16+ minute epic track to Ostgut's dance soundtrack, Shut Up And Dance! Updated, which is now on vinyl for the first time. With its minimalism in the vein of Philip Glass morphing into a majestic '70s psychedelic killer, it is an outstanding track. The DJ-friendly club edit doesn't leave out any of the original's stupefying magic.

IV 011EP
|
"Âme returns with two new tracks. Two tracks that move away from that clean sound has been penetrating us for the last two years in nearly every production. Bring back the raw -- like Kerri Chandler said last year already. So here u go: Wildpitch I think I luv u!"
