Release info:
Switching seaside ambience for a sound shaped by inner-city living, Atelier’s second full-length studio album, Lights Towards The Exit, channels the mood of a sleepless cityscape.
Lights Towards The Exit is Atelier’s second full-length studio album. After the release of Varsam Court at the end of 2019 on Lossless, run by mentors and friends Mathias Schober and Thomas Herb, the duo experimented with different ideas in the studio, and at the start of 2020 a common thread began to appear between a few of the tracks which laid
the foundation for the sound of their second album.
Both Alexander and Jas moved to Berlin in the period before the release of Varsam Court from their hometown of Cape Town, South Africa, where their first album was written and recorded. Moving provided some challenges, particularly with what was the most essential equipment to bring from their previous studio set-up, but those limitations proved to
be useful in incorporating new instruments and techniques to the recording process. Lights Towards The Exit was written and recorded in different spaces in Berlin – from bedrooms in apartment blocks to three different studios across the city. The different locations all had a specific ambience – such as 4th- and 5th-floor bedrooms with busy street views; a studio with no windows in a typical old Berlin backyard complex forever under threat of being sold and gentrified; and a bigger studio with windows on the opposite side of the corridor overlooking the backyard of a mechanic workshop. The final details and edits were completed in Atelier’s current studio, in a contrasting area surrounded by office blocks, plazas, 9-5ers and, most importantly, their friends and colleagues.
Swapping the mountains, sea and seclusion for tall buildings, backyards and a new community, Lights Towards The Exit channels the sensation of being surrounded by people, but still feeling like you're on your own. The album was written through three years of cold winters, sweaty summers and a period where the world stood still during the
pandemic. Frustrated with the cease of momentum, but still optimistic, Atelier disappeared from public view, abandoning social media to focus on recording, songwriting and experimentation. It was a difficult time: the duo longed to perform and continue producing music, and the imposed limitations sometimes felt like an impossible obstacle. Ultimately, though, this would provide unexpected inspiration and influence the sound and direction of the new album.
The sound of Lights Towards The Exit is not a departure from their first album, but a progression: influenced by the new surroundings in the duo’s adoptive city, Atelier’s second album is an ode to first-time experiences, new languages, challenges, club culture and the shift from youth to maturity, as well as a balm to those stuck somewhere in between.
The overall sound is a lift not in tempo, but in energy, matching the openness needed to make a new start in a new place.

Release Info:
Warm welcome to Manuel Tur, who debuts on Lossless with his captivating Digital Fabrics EP. Expect
three stripped back, warm and analogue sounding techno-ish cuts unmistakably referring to Detroit in a
reminiscent yet forward thinking way.
Lossless bossmen Mathias Schober and Thomas Herb are big fans - and supporters - of Manuel Tur’s
music. Naturally the excitement level was high when the guys received the Digital Fabrics demos from
Manuel and even went up to ecstatic while listening to the three tunes.
Masterfully stripped back productions, made with attention to all the details and a perfect interplay of
rhythm and sound. These tracks just triggering all the right spots!
Fast forward this EP is now on Lossless and we couldn’t be happier that Manuel agreed on releasing it
with us right away.
We also had a chat with Manuel about the creative process behind Digital Fabrics in which he revealed
that at the time the EP came to life he had just added a new toy at his Islenyo Studios in Essen. Namely
a Korg SQ-1 sequencer which was triggering some of his analogue synths. Over the course of a week
or so those jams culminated in building the backbone of the Digital Fabric EP. By further adding some
euphonic digital pads, Manuel set an antipode that’s blending and supplementing perfectly.
Yours sincerely,
LOSSLESS

Release info:
It’s Indian Summer again and it’s like an unwritten rule to please you with another Atelier release at this beautiful
time of the year.
So here we are with a collection of superb re-interpretations of a few tracks taken from the duos debut album
“Varsam Court”. Delivering the goods we have no one less than Dutch high flyer’s Tunnelvisions, Lisboa’s
LuxFrágil resident Switchdance, Heidelberg’s Lopazz & Casio Casino, Lossless co-head Mathias Schober
and Alexander Inggs – one half of Atelier.
No doubt that we’re proud about this line-up and couldn’t be happier with the music we’re going to share with you

Atelier quoting on the remixes:
“After writing the album Varsam Court, it was truly exciting to hear the songs in a different context. Originally, the
album was not written for the clubs, but the remixes on the EP transcend that line, bringing the original ideas to a
wider audience and into a new space. These reinterpretations by the artists are a great testament to how
everyone really does hear and feel music differently.”

Outbound.4 is a crisp double A-Side affair - featuring two killer Techno workouts courtesy of our French stalwart Anthony George Patrice followed up by two Deep/Dub House delights delivered by Son Dos.


Tracklist:
Artist: Anthony Georges Patrice
A1: DBZU (Eine Brücke Zum Übermenschen)
A2: Crowned Eagle

Artist: Son Dos
AA1: Cala
AA2: Maffio




Release info:
We're happy to announce the fourth chapter of our sought-after Outbound series which also marks Lossless' second release in 2020. After two extended chapters of Outbound, fully showcasing our labels artist roster, Outbound.4 is a crisp double A-Side affair - featuring two killer Techno workouts courtesy of our French stalwart Anthony George Patrice followed up by two Deep/Dub House delights delivered by Son Dos.

Without a doubt, Berlin based frenchman Anthony George Patrice steadily adjusted and developed his sound to a higher level over the last years. His contribution on Side A - "DBZU (Eine Brücke Zum Übermenschen)" and "Crowned Eagle" exposing new artistic shades and Anthony's ability to take you on a sonic journey and soak you into his rich and driving deeper Techno soundscapes.

Side AA belongs to Son Dos - a creative power plant by two Sweden born men: Barcelona based Marco Gegenheimer and Tapia J. Arriagada living in Malta. The duo already caused a stir with their debut "Children Of Almost" on Outcast Oddity. Marco also released some great music on Studio Barnhus as one half of MLiR!
On our Outbound.4 the guys showcase two amazing cuts originated from fruitful studio jams.

The beautiful "Cala" is hypnotizing us in deep, meditative balearic territories while her powerful brother "Maffio" might have had a little testosterone injection along the way and moves us straight onto the dancefloor. Both tunes are capable to unveil their power outdoors just as much as they will in a sweaty basement!

Son Dos quoting on Anthony George Patrice's tracks:
"These songs sound like a Movie score to us, a soundtrack taking you further and further into an unexplored forest: ...you are on a mission ... chugging drums, haunting strings and rolling percussion guide you... your heartbeat intensifies, with each step that you take...
all of a sudden, the floor underneath you turns into flowing geometrical patterns and you start falling...
a voice tells you "Happiness Is A Miisunderstanding", and the fear you had leaves your mind...you connect yourself with a higher power and realise why you started this mission in the first place"

Anthony George Patrice quoting on Son Dos tracks:
"Lovely balearic yet powerful atmosphere on "Cala"… Head flies and shoes get used. All that you wish for!" ...
"Hands in the air for "Maffio"! Here comes the peaktime booming system. Simple, efficient yet super interesting and deeply rooted dance floor killer. This is ace!

Setting the tone with the first release on Lossless in the new year 2020 is co-owner
and omnitalented Mathias Schober.

Tracklist:
A1: The Fall feat. Atelier
B1: Will Make A Difference
B2: The Fall (Instrumental)


Release info:
Setting the tone with the first release on Lossless in the new year 2020 is co-owner
and omnitalented Mathias Schober.
Mathias is opening LL1222 with the title track „The Fall“ on which he invited Jas of
the duo Atelier for a vocal appearance showing a new side of his unique voice.
The sparse instrumentation of the the track, built around handclap rhythms, creates
the perfect fundament for the vocal highlights. Additional snare drum and synth hits
will do the rest to make you move.
Second track of the EP, “Will Make A Difference” sure does make a difference. It’s a
4/4 not 4/4 kinda track with an ever growing huge synth sound that takes you all the
way to the middle part where it bursts into emptiness leaving space for some fierce
bass tones. The track has a certain pop-appeal to it but doesn’t at the same time.
This doesn’t make sense at all? Just give it a listen and you’ll know.
The third and final track is an instrumental version of “The Fall”. A simple reduction.
The essence of beautifully crafted rhythms and synth atmospheres. It simply feels
right.

Tracklist:
A1: Azaka
B1: Kosanba

Release info:

We are pleased to present you the second EP of the infernal duo INTERNACIONAL ELECTRICAL RHYTHMS formed of Trikk and Mathias Schober.

Let’s dive right in and start with "Azaka" and it’s live recorded percussions. This track just builds and builds until it falls back into that irresistible and sexy main groove. It reminds a bit of old DJ Gregory tracks - just 10 BPM less. Some would even say it is epic, we wouldn’t argue though. Anyways, it serves the dance floor well and proved it many times in the past.

The second track "Kosanba" keeps the EP in balance. "Kosanba" sounds more like a Sci-Fi movie soundtrack at first listen. A basic rhythm built around a modular sequence, upright piano, washed out guitars and an eerie spacey melody with tons of reverb form a track that still works in a club context, yet it’s definitely one of those tracks for the right moments as it sets a different tone for sure.

Bruno and Mathias sure continue what they’ve started so well last year with their INTERNACIONAL ELECTRICAL RHYTHMS disguise.

Tracklist:
A1: Something To Fill An Hour (SBTH Remix)
B1: Something To Fill An Hour (Perel Remix)
B2: Something To Fill An Hour

Release info:

First things first. Yes, you’re right, there’s LL1218 missing but please be assured we’ve just changed the schedule a bit for this one.

LL1219 is introducing a new act, hailing from Cape Town, South Africa. ATELIER is a duo formed of Jas Miszewski & Alexander Inggs. Their ‚Something To Fill An Hour‘ EP is a prelude to a full-length player which will be released early next year. On the EP you will find the beautifully crafted and organic sounding original which is backed up by two remixes coming from the super in-demand and always tasteful PEREL and the label heads Thomas and Mathias as SBTH.

‚Something To Fill An Hour‘ is a deep yet energetic track with all the right ingredients that make the Atelier sound - analog synths, drum machines, guitars, effect pedals and last but not least Jas' voice. It’s evolving from start until finish and will sooth you with it’s wide and deep sounds and a beautiful reverb - which btw was recorded in a church.

The remixes will please the dance floors, while Perel went for her trademark sound with 80s infected melodies and a broken drum machine based rhythm, SBTH built a strong foundation based on a slightly broken, low end driven beat with loads of tension to give the vocal the right appearance as the main element. All this makes an excellent introduction to Atelier and we’re happy to welcome two new faces to Lossless.

Tracklist:
A1: Marka
A2: Marka (Breaking The Beats)
B1: The Whisper
B2: Stranger

Release info:
“The miracle of being able to realize that your hands are cold...this is Love over Entropy”

Finally! We’re glad to announce Love Over Entropy’s return to Lossless in joyful anticipation of his new “Marka EP”. LL1217 assembles four versatile pieces of shimmering and floating pieces of modern house music. These cuts will certainly move and rapture dancers under the open skies or under the roofs of sweaty nightclubs alike.

The title track “Marka” - in all it’s different states and versions - has been a constant in Love Over Entropy’s live-sets for a while and it’s always a highlight. The main version is a stripped back track with an incredibly infectious rhythm programming and just the right amount of peaks in form of flashy chord progressions. Banger. Marka’s “Breaking The Beats” version is a dubby and chunky spaced out tool - one for the heads they say. Both versions are phenomenally well balanced and tailored with an astonishing attention to detail.

“The Whisper” is driven by a bouncy groove, topped off by sparse percussion and airy synth melodies with all the excellent atmospheres and depth that LoE creates so well, a track to get lost in. Last but not least we have “Stranger” based on more of those excellent LoE rhythms and feedback soundscapes with sprinkles of vocal and a very subtle profession.

Tracklist:
A1: Mathias Schober - The Interessting Things Happen
B1: Mathias Schober - And Life Turns
B2: Mathias Schober & Alice Rose - Into Something Unique

Release info:

Lossless’ first offering in 2018 comes courtesy of co-founder Mathias Schober. With his “Continuing EP” Mathias’ definitely continues what he has started with his recent “Certanities EP“ on Optimo Trax. The EP is a true reflection of Mathias’ constant approach to push the boundaries and merge his influences to draw a coherent painting. In this case the drawing is consisting of three truly unique tracks.

The EP opener „The Interesting Things Happens“ is based on an irresistible, stoic groove accompanied by a tight muted guitar and bass, of course. Adding an infectious synth melody and more floating guitar layers that build a steady tension, Mathias is then releasing us into an aerial breakdown - till the electrifying groove is finally dropping in again. This leftfieldish affair will make the dancefloor move.

Next up we have „And Life Turns“, again built on one of Mathias Schober’s super tight trademark grooves. “And Life Turns” is led by a truly uplifting sequence, backed up by some nasty electric bass sounds. Sublime, dark, slightly twisted and definitely with the right dose of peak-time - just as we like it.

The third track on the EP is slightly different and it is not aiming for the club. On “Into Something Unique” Mathias invites Alice Rose for a collaboration. Some might remember Mathias’ remix for Jaap Lighthart’s „I Know Change“ that featured Alice’s vocals. This particular remix was such an excellent crafted production and it sticked - well deserved - with all the key players like Dixon, Âme, Black Coffee or Sven Väth for a while. In 2016 Alice and Mathias turned a few fruitful studio sessions literally „Into Something Unique“. This piece is a really bright, beautiful and very intense song that soaks you right into it’s one take performance. The sparse instrumentation in connection with Mathias careful sound design emphasises Alice’s beautiful voice.

Tracklist:
A1: Momental
B1: Furia

Release info:
After an excellent 2017 we round out the year with Internacional Electrical Rhythms’ debut EP.
We first introduced you to this joint-venture of Trikk and Mathias Schober on LL1213 - our label compilation ‘Outbound.2’. Their ‘War Of The Worlds’ from that compilation sounded so fresh and other-worldly and immediately gained great support from the likes of Andrew Weatherhall, Solomun, and many more.
It was hard to pick an A-Side for the release, but we had to do it and so we open with ‘Momental’ - a dub-influenced and rather detailed banger with a constantly driving sequence and washed out synth chords that will drag you into a different sphere.
On the B, ‘Furia’ builds around a never ending synth string and a driving real tom drum groove. Together they make a team you cannot resist. It’s sexy, it’s dub and it a certain for making your floors move.
Yours sincerely, Lossless

Tracklist:
A1: Aylanmasdan
B1: Nujan
B2: Nujan Les Pins

Release info:

Anthony Georges Patrice is back on the mothership with his second full EP for Lossless. He set the standard and a milestone for us with his "Parallel Romance EP" - a debut release not only for him but also for us back in 2014 which took the hearts of Mano Le Tough, Ame, Dixon and many more by strom.

After contributing exclusive tracks for Outbound.1 and Outbound.2 where he's featured as Búnus (teaming up with Wayne Duggan) he's now delivering the goods with his unique and versatile Nujan EP!
With the strong, dark and complex leftfield techno track "Aylanmasdan" leading the pack and the houseier, playful, deep but stripped back title track "Nujan", Anthony found just the perfect balance for this EP. And if that was not enough he's closing the circle with the beautiful "Nujan Les Pins" interlude.

Check it out and let the music speak for itself they say -
we hope you enjoy as much as we do!

C1: Love Over Entropy - Land Before Time
D1: Bunús - Guinney
D2: Trikk - Return To Order (N.Y. Dub)

Release info:
A little more than two years since the release of Outbound.1 and we're ready with the next instalment. Once again we're reaching out to the label family to fully illustrate what Lossless has to offer - a fine blend of electronic music, made to please the dancefloor throughout the whole night.
Kicking off with a new project - Internacional Electrical Rhythms - formed by Trikk and label boss Mathias Schober, "War Of The Worlds", will get you in the mood for a full night of dancing. Spaced out horns and a rhythm you can't resist will take you to a higher level. On "That Is When" Schober flies solo to contribute a stripped-down and yet uplifting groover that builds the momentum.
Our Irish family member and true gentleman Neil Flynn, steps up to give us a big hug with his warm, subtle and vast builder of a track, "Shon". This gem of a tune will spill a full lovedose at it's peak. But there's no time to wipe away the tears of joy because Love over Entropy introduces his enchanting yet intoxicating melodies playing over a masterful groove on his epic "Land Before Time".
Also time to introduce another new born project, Bunús. Anthony Georges Patrice (who set the first milestone for Lossless with "Parallel Romance") and our Irish friend Wayne Duggan join forces under the alias on new track "Guinney." A mix of classic Detroit vibes and an irresistible groove with a typical AGP breakdown - so good times assured.
Finishing off this new journey in style, is man of the moment Trikk, with a New-Wave influenced track, driven by one of his signature synth lines - special!
Needless to say we feel extremely excited and validated that nearly all of the artists who have featured on the label to date are part of this new release.

Tracklist:
A1: Moritzplatz (Mars Mix)
B1: Moritzplatz (Jupiter Mix)

Release info:

Lossless head honchos Mathias Schober and Thomas Herb stepping up again under the SBTH alias and going off the ramp with their Moritzplatz EP - the labels first release in 2017!

The title track, inspired by the bustling changeover of Berlin’s Moritzplatz, comes in two versions sitting on the same raw and analogue sounding basic track but being yet so different. The Mars Mix is constantly propelled by a powerful, uplifting arpeggio line, capturing the leftfield kinda house vibe of the duo’s previous releases and translate it into something more energetic and techno. A gem shaped for those special moments and kinda dark and sweaty dancefloors of all size.

In contrast and complementing the Mars Mix in a very special way we have the Jupiter Mix on the flip where the guys put the spot on a wonderful warm and steadily shifting pad. This being topped by less fx and more percussion transforms the tune in a stripped back, organic house vibe going on and in haling the dancer into much brighter spheres.

With the success of their cosmic and italo tingued Ribolla EP which made it in the playlist of many of the finest DJs in the cirquit under their belt, Mathias and Thomas prooving their versatility and talent one more time and even if it’s sometimes dark in space - the future’s bound to looking bright for them.

Tracklist:
A1: Ribolla
B1: Diffondersi (Main)
B2: Diffondersi (Alternate Version)

Release info:

Berlin based label Lossless returns for it's 11th release. The “Ribolla EP“ comes courtesy of the label heads Mathias Schober and Thomas Herb under their alias “SBTH”. A record showing that only with the knowledge of the past you can mould the future.

The title track ‚Ribolla' is deeply embedded in the history of dance music, yet it sounds like the future. You hear a fundament of classic Deep House, sprinkled with just the right touch of Italo glam while being so cosmic and hypnotic that it pulls you into a vortex.
The flipside “Diffondersi” in contrast is a slick, slow and laid back Electro tune with a retro futuristic synth work out on top. Spaced out deepness at it’s best whereas the “Alternate Version” takes the track from the warm up to your favourite discoteque’s peak time. It draws it’s drive from it’s repetitive Disco bassline and is even closer to the Cosmic-Italo heritage than “Ribolla”.
With this release Mathias and Thomas never tried to recreate the past or glorify it, they used the past as their inspiration and put their own bold stamp on contemporary club music.

For the past years Lossless has been doing exactly this - with a string of successful and unique releases from the growing family Trikk, Anthony Georges Patrice, Neil Flynn, Love Over Entropy and King Britt - floating with Mathias Schober’s solo works and the bossmen project SBTH.

Vinyl Only!

The Shaketown series strikes again! This time, we’re diving into the vibrant rhythms of the Caribbean,
delivering four dazzling zouk gems, each reimagined with a fresh and modern twist. Following in the
footsteps of Noema’s legendary edit of Ata Kak’s “Daa Nyinaa”, the brand new CARIBBEAN
SHAKETOWN EP is packed with uplifting grooves, infectious Balearic synths, and vocals that will
keep you hooked from start to finish.
Guiding this sonic adventure is David Benjamin, aka NOEMA, aka MAGIC JAMS - a DJ, Producer,
Guitarist and Label Owner from Berlin. In his studio work, he has released one very well received
album as well as several EPs, remixes and edits. In this context he collaborated with heavy weights
like Apparat, Dj Dixon, and Grammy winners Basement Jaxx as well as electronic music underground
heroes such as Lauer, Kalabrese, Shubostar, O/Y, Acid Pauli, Auntie Flo, Dreems, Khidja, Panthera
Krause and Mehmet Aslan.
Looking back at more than 25 years of DJing, David is a true master at the decks. Constantly refining
his craft during a former 10-year residency at the legendary Berlin Club institution Wilde Renate, he
developed a unique style combining an outstanding selection, ranging from Disco to IndieDance and
House, with out-of-this-world mixing skills. While David releases and plays rather electronic,
contemporary and psychedelic music under his NOEMA moniker, his MAGIC JAMS alias is all about
acoustic sounds and crate digging, with focus on Music of the African diaspora, Cosmic Disco and
Balearic Beat.
Furthermore David holds a diploma in classical guitar with focus on music theory, works as a
teacher/mentor and runs the highly acclaimed The Magic Movement label and released music by the
likes of Nicola Cruz, Axel Boman, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Xique-Xique, Eddie C and many more.
All proceeds of this release will be donated to the LOVE AND HOPE MUSIC SCHOOL in City Soleil,
Haiti. This beautiful project is offering free music lessons in several orphanages in one of the most
dangerous slums of Port Au Prince.

Writing about techno is quite difficult without falling into cliché: there are only so many ways that you can say
something about a music whose core elements are forged on deliberate repetition; where real talent is attributed
to those who can find the perfect groove where nothing needs added or subtracted to hold the listener’s attention for upwards of five minutes.
Such tracks are the hallmark of Tresor’s catalogue, and this joy in repetition can be found in works from Detroit,
Berlin, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and more. And it is through this lens that Parisian artist, UFO95, focuses his
output, resulting in Backward Improvement, an EP that sits perfectly in the spectrum of techno found in the
Tresor chronology.
The title itself makes an abstract reference to the influence of the classics of the genre, inspiring him to take a
distinct less-is-more approach to production for this collection of stripped-down yet unrelenting techno chiselled
from the live set which has fixed UFO95 as one of the next holdfasts for the future of the scene.
Perhaps it is the fact the UFO95 only performs live that had led to such crisp and focussed studio productions.;
each of the tracks showcase the artist’s burgeoning talent for creating the essential foundations of techno;
perfect, looping, instinctual grooves that are counterbalanced by an apprehensive tension from off-key tones.
Backward Improvement marks the addition of a new name in the list of techno’s best producers and proves that
while the genre may now be in its 40th year there are yet sonic explorations to be made and variations that are
worth unearthing.

Short Info:

Following up on his fantastic full length from a couple years ago, Adriano Mirabile continues to bring forth that down tempo and mid-tempo organic house mood and chillout lounge atmosphere blend with his productions. Side A we get the original Traumfänger tracks showcasing all that we've loved from the get about what Adriano brings to our imprint. Side B offers up two reinterpretations courtesy of Aus Music recording artist, Lee Jones, and Stasis Recordings mainstay, Sanderson Dear. Both take the chillout and bump up the pulse a bit with their techy flare.

SHORT INFO:
Axel Boman returns in defiantly good form with a brand new original EP on his very own Studio Barnhus label, blessing this fast paced world with some slow moving music inspired by the Eterna Primavera mountains outside Medellin. Specifically, this record was created during months of isolation spent on an avocado farm, with the Swedish producer letting the outside world disappear bit by bit, until only clear shapes of unclear importance remained.
Of course, this is all just an attempt to poetically describe a collection of tracks that sound exactly like the kind of disco business Axel has been meddling in for the last 15 years. Don't be fooled by the rocks that he got, he’s still, he's still Axel from the block. Viva house music!

VITAL SALES POINTS:
- limited edition vinyl, WAS exclusive.
- artwork by Robin Ekemark
- Released on Axels own label Studio Barnhus, following up his latest double album LUZ/ Quest for Fire
which got Grammis nominated and listed on uncountable "Best of 2022” lists all over the world.
- AXEL BOMAN!!!!!!!

Info:

Never say never! Because it's time for TURMOIL - a surprising landmark album comeback for RICO PUESTEL defining a musical and personal turning point with a completely new and re-invented artistry. About time!

4U opens the Pandora's Box of TURMOIL with inimitable meditative beauty, descending into the metaphorical and tonal SLICES OF LIFE that unleashes a complex chain of energy while WHERETO even overcomes this high voltage setup with a deadly infective loop and the only reminiscences of something to call Techno on this album in its fading conclusion.
Before HEART OF GOLD defines the probably most immersive peak on TURMOIL with its vast soundscape and mantra-like piano shuffle, QUESTIONS floats in Dubstep'ish ways to actually raise two questions to the listener while this train keeps on going.
FIVE SIGNS speeds up the pace on the album's second half, culminating in the mesmerizingly driven groove and words of HIGH HOPE and the powerful Upbeat drenched into ambient soundscapes on NEWTON.
Nearing the end of TURMOIL, DUMB delivers the longest vocal verses on this album and proceeds with the most pervasive and powerful layers of beats, violins and synth stabs.
Closing and re-starting all of it, EVERENDING grooves into infinity with its yoga-like theme and spreads some true love.

Without a doubt, TURMOIL happens to be the most accomplished work by RICO PUESTEL melting so many of his artistic worlds into one unique piece of art!
