Wandertag

There is for sure no lack of electronic music producers in the German capital. But in contrast to most of their colleagues mister Dreher & Smart were really born in Berlin what becomes obvious already after the first verbal exchange. In the beginning of February they left their urban sphere and headed towards the beautiful landscape of Mecklenburg for a very special Wandertag, which is the German expression for a hiking day. Through snow-covered forests and past frozen lakes finally arrived at the cosy Datscha on the ground of Fusion festival where the Fortschritt3000 crew welcomed them very heartily. Little by little more and more guests arrived ant the evening became more and more frisky and social. And so mister Dreher & Smart soon unpacked their music machines and serenaded the audience. They set all the experiences from their eventful day to music and so also the recording became very entertaining and exciting: On a continuously forcing groove varied sound constructions unfold, which lead from trippy-minimal deepness over hypnotic melodies and through huge reverb rooms to distinctive percussive take offs. The unobtrusive reactions from the dance floor mixed into confer Wandertag its authentic live atmosphere and increase the anyhow very strong pressure of this recording.
