• Description It is obvious to attentive observers of the electronic
  dance music scene that, over the last few years, the
  Rhein Main region has developed into a true Mecca
  of that modern definition of House which is well able
  to build highly inspirational sound bridges between
  the abstraction of Minimal Techno and the Funk in
  US House music. One of the pioneers of this
  movement is the Heidelberg-born Christian
  Burkhardt, who now lives in Frankfurt. With his
  releases on Oslo and Raum...Musik., as a part of
  the La Pena Collective and with his album
  "Revolver", which he produced together with
  Einzelkind in 2010, he has created permanent
  musical values. Burkhardt's debut on Cocoon, "Stop
  Over Goa" is even better: percussive Funk,
  powerful hand claps, some Wild Pitch Acid and
  alienated Adrenaline-Diva vocals are causing a
  massive dancefloor mobilization which would even
  make Matt Edwards aka Radio Slave envious. In a
  less obvious way, "Chanel" is hypnotizing the
  listener with vibrating form of tribal House reduction
  that cultivates statically charged energy states over
  almost nine minutes. Rarely did modern House
  music sound equally complex and clearly
  structured.
