Hamburg residents Jakob Seidensticker and Bardia Salour, together known as Seidensticker & Salour are hardly newcomers to the scene. Jakob has been producing music as one third of the internationally known Wareika, and Bardia has made a name for himself through playing regularly amongst the Hamburg club circuit. The two of them have come together in 2010 to release EPs on labels like VoidCom, Einmaleins, and URSL. The boys now host a regular event dubbed "Dance For Fans" at Hamburg's most prestigious venue, the EGO club, and with impressive lists of guests to say the least. The two share a love for minimal / dub Techno that is evident in their productions as well as their DJ sets. They keep the vibe easy, chill, and relaxed. They have a knack for creating intricate music that is easy to understand and more importantly, easy to enjoy. "Welcome To Our Ageing Chamber", their debut for WIR is a wonderful illustration of their talent. They have kept the soundscape free from overwhelming textures and effects, leaving room for each instrument. The piano in "Golden Times" is a perfect example. Each element fits, as if they have been producing together for years.

In his biography, Arjuna Schiks is described as a producer with an ability to bring the human out of the machine, unleashing our emotions. After listening to "Doha", we were affected in the same way. Simply put, his music makes us feel good. Melodic accents and danceable rhythms blend in purposeful unison, and it is with the "Doha EP" that Arjuna will join WIR. He has appeared on Gem Records, Manual Music, Traum, and Trapez, with original EPs, and has recently graced a number of labels with remixes, leaving his signature on each EP. His production output is impressive, and like most greats, his sound continues to grow and develop with each studio session.
Arjuna resides in Amsterdam, where he has developed a distinct and solid sound, and a loyal fan base. He performs live close to every weekend all over Holland. We invited Arjuna to come and perform as the special guest at our Treibstoff 14,5 year anniversary party for his first ever performance on German soil. His set was received with smiling faces and hands in the air, coming from the brimming dance floor of Cologne's Gewölbe; a warm welcome to say the least. We had the pleasure of spending some time together after the event, and his character is just like his music. He is a cheerful and passionate person with a bright sense of humor and we are elated to welcome him to WIR. Keep your ears open, for there is more to come..

We are proud and happy to present the first release by our Cologne buddy ZIGGY KINDER. Since many years Ziggy is a close friend and has impressed with his work on labels like WARE and TIEFSCHWARZ' imprint SOUVENIR. "FAVELA" is the generally used term for a shanty town in Brasil. Ziggy has recorded the vocals originally with Aline de Magalhaes during his Brasil-trip. This house-tune has been tested succesfully on the dancefloor and comes with great remixes by Soukie & Windish from Hamburg. The digital release also includes a remix by Deep Data mastermind René Breitbarth from Berlin. More

As DJ and as live act, France's Nhar certainly knows how to tweak the controls. He's transmitting his message on every channel, sporting his personal recipe for dancefloor mayhem, consisting of driving beats, melancholic euphoria and some other ingredients meant to stay a secret. On diverse labels like Mobilee, Plak or Modelisme, the former member of the 22 Crew shines with his panoramic view, melodic depth of focus and concise footwork. That love has to be rewarded, so Kompakt's Jörg Burger, a.k.a. the Modernist throws in one of his rare remixes for "Close Up", delivering that bonus punch and enhancing the original's charm with the razor-sharp musical scale he's become known for. It's a born winner for WIR. More

On huge battlegrounds the inner demons clash: Yapacc's new masterpiece goes epic and tells you an existentialist story about rigid contemplation and mass euphoria, providing dem glamorous drumrolls a comeback long overdue and keeping his shit most generally together while setting up enough traps to become entangled in.“Karma Of Battlefield“ comes in an elegic, postapocalyptic disguise just to surprise with siren chants and cutting edge chimes. It's a groundbreaking piece of music, just as his sibling „Conga De Terre“, which loosens its high end percussions with a well dosed infusion of bittersweet symphony and proves that beefy barbarians have feelings too. In the heat of the battle Yapacc lives up to the promise, that's why we love him, and that's why we release him too. More
