17. Dave Aju - Open Wide [Circus Company]

 

One of my personal favourites this year, Dave Aju’s oral explorations sound like they were beamed out of Sun Ra’s mind, channelled through Bootsy Collins Bass, by the way of Dr.Dre’s MPC, straight into the feet of Berlin’s after hourRead the whole story

Stefan Goldmann and Dave Aju nominated for Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik

Dec 15, 2008

GoldmannThe almost unthinkable has happened. The Albums of Stefan Goldmann "Transitory State" (Macro07) and Dave Aju "Open Wide" (CCCD05) have been nominated for the "German Music Critics Award" in the fourth Quarter of 2008. The Board of German Music Critics is not well known for picking electronic Artists to say the least, as far as we know they have hardly ever nominated an electronic Dance Release at all. Jazz, Pop or what they call "Nu and Extreme" being the most ccntemporary of their regular Top Lists. However it seems that even the Grandsegneurs of the

Almost 20 years on from the original release of D.H.S.‘s classic, ‚The House of God‘, (DHS = Dimensional Holofonic Sound) is back to guide us and persuade us once again.

simplecd04

 

Fresh from releasing their Technique album on Will Saul's Simple imprint, the Frankfurt duo of Matthias Vogt and Christian Rindermann, AKA C-Rock, have had a busy year so far. Their own brand of melodic house music has been in high demand during the current deep house resurgence, with releases signed to Freerange and Tsuba on top of their aforementioned full-length. To say that they are bandwagon jumpers would be far from the truth; they've been plugging at this deep, driving sound for a while now, even managing to score a collaboration with US house legend Chez

Open Wide - Dave Aju has arrived!

Oct 17, 2008

CCCD05 was news

After three amazing EP’s on Circus Company, including the recent underground hit “Be Like The Sun,” we are proud to present Open Wide, Dave Aju’s debut full-length LP release. He has really outdone himself this time with his most conceptual and personal, yet accessible work to date. The album was made entirely with sounds from his mouth, but it’s no novelty affair, these are all wonderful pieces of music, covering a variety of styles. “Roundabout” starts things off with fat shuffling drums, an infectious bassline, and vocal refrain that builds
