Reissue of two classic Losoul tracks. "Chase Chase Chase" is one of the artist's most passionate jams -- captivating and full of life -- a raw and endless affair. "Brother In Love" paces firmly while allowing a soulful atmosphere of affection. That one's a keeper. '90s feeling and innovation, classic microhouse. Remastered.

RBDC 008EP
|
In certain circles, this is a record that would easily be called "eternal". Back in 1996, when it was originally released, it sounded like nothing else -- and still does. The sixth record of Frankfurt's soon to be imperial Playhouse label and Losoul's first outing on the label, it hot-wired many things at once: house and techno, US roots and European fruits, grittiness and wittiness, high tech funk, the expansion pf playtimes and the concept of minimalism in dance music. Elegance met effectiveness. A composition that hooked you and also caused a stir elsewhere. Daniel Bell licensed it to his Elevate label and commissioned a very young Theo Parrish to remix it, Michel De Hey did the same with his EC Records and treatments by Gerd among others. Here you finally get both of those carefully restored, remastered and reissued next to the originals. Amply placed on a double 12", it also features the previously unreleased "D1". Stemming from the same time and era as "Open Door," it rings and feels like a compact lost brother. Addictive as on the very first day and here to stay.

Two Dreamers present a reissue of Losoul's Belong, originally released in 2000. Losoul, whose real name is Peter Kremeier, has been one of the leading figures of legendary '90s and '00s German label Playhouse. He released numerous LPs and EPs during the last three decades, including underground hit "Open Door". He also appeared under the names Silhouette Electronique and Don Disco. Belong, originally released in 2000, gathers nine titles of pure electronic music. From minimalistic house ("Taste Not Waste"), through '90s trip hop ("Sunbeams In The Rain") all the way to more experimental endeavors ("Late Play"). The album also includes the track "Overland" which samples the bassline of "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson in an eccentric and joyful way. Belong represents the 2000s musical turn, with its delicate, smart, minimal, and emotionally groovy sound. A pioneering, yet soulful layout of independent electronic music.

Losoul returns to action with his first long-player in almost ten years and delivers a stunning collection of compositions for Hypercolour titled Island Time. Otherwise known as Peter Kremeier, the German producer has mesmerized for many years with his organic and emotive house music, largely released on the influential Playhouse label, but of late has seen him release singles for Karat and Tardis Records, as well as his very own Another Picture label. Fans of Losoul won't be disappointed, as a diverse yet utterly familiar sound aesthetic pours out over the album's seven tracks in his own inimitable style. The jazzy broken beats of "Gold Tooth" shine with their micro-sample chops, whilst "Mean Time" is a dense and dubby slow stomp, teasing the drums with space echo and injecting sparse bass work where it matters. Inventive, spongy house grooves are delivered on "Boppin Lower" and "Square Down Smoother" whilst the album closer, "Lava In You" is a master class in ambient sonics and shimmering keys over a lo-fi swinging groove. It's been over 20 years since Losoul's signature single "Open Door" (1996), and the German producer continues to pour out honest and rewarding music.

HYPE 037EP
|
Repress of Slowly Turning by Peter Kremeier, AKA Losoul, released on Hypercolour in 2014. "Daddy, What's A Rise?" is classic Losoul; a heavy low slung groove never lets up, with micro disco stabs and distant vocal snippets, looping round and round for over ten minutes, but without ever standing still, the filtering and deft touches keep things moving at just the right funky pace. "Time & Space" is a glitchy and dubbed out affair, a solid 4/4 beat underpins a myriad of delayed percussion and panning synths, spatial effects and an incessant chord stab.

TAR 006EP
|
Tardis Records label owners Eli Verveine and Oscar Schubaq present two tracks from the personal archives of Peter Kremeier, aka Losoul, a man who has been rocking dancefloors and enchanting listeners with his abstract and tripped-out take on minimal house for two decades. "Soda Island" hangs cut-up vocal stabs over the last word in bone-dry, bass-heavy grooves. "Sparkling Please" starts out cheerfully but then subtly mutates into spooked insectoid psychedelia anchored by crisp percussion and bass. Drop either of these cuts at the right moment and watch the dancers lose their minds. Mastered and cut by Stefan Betke.

2019 repress. After exploring the highs in electricity and the lows of the deep earth, the Another Picture label goes further into things, sensing vibration of the fire below and turning it into a never-ending evolution of sound and groove. Losoul tracks are scattered artefacts of the city, drawing their vibe and inspiration from the streets, the people, the concrete, the action. Then there's the ever-changing beauty of nature. Soul, movement, and emotion. Once again drawing on his lengthy experience in house and techno production and performance, Losoul delivers two tracks that are timeless in many ways. See you on the dancefloor. And everywhere else.

APP 000EP

Losoul introduces a series of fine yet outstanding pieces of music. Based on classic sound production, this release opens a space for a wide range of musical exposure. There is the raw energy of "BZA," consisting of rolling beats and bass lines with sounds from the acidic realm being presented to the restless dancefloors by true originators' poetry. Believe that. This is counterparted by "Sediments," a jam from nowhere else but the deep. Down here, many things you might have taken for being lost remain in the abstract vibe and the groove. It's all in there.

HCF 019EP

Truly awesome new 12" single from Losoul. "Show Me Yours" is an evil piece of work with a massive bass line, carried by a pounding 909 groove which just blows away any crowd, reminiscent of the ruff stuff labels like Relief Records delivered back in the days. "Fogger" gently drops down to the floor, captivating from the first bar and catching the low-riding peeps on the floor by just some very little twists and turns that dig deeper and deeper and deeper.
