It’s been seven years now since Matthias Tanzmann teamed up with Daniel Scholz under the Gamat 3000 umbrella and released the ‘All Seasons’ album on Dessous Recordings. Back then this relaxed deephouse understatement was the flavor of the month. Now Matthias Tanzmann presents the grown up, world-travelled solo debut album ‘Restless’.

Not just the album title, but also track names like Keep On, Flight Mode or Redirected reflect a packed international DJ booking schedule over the last few years. Since 2007 he has been resident at Circoloco at DC10 (Ibiza) and part of their world tour. Rounded off with residencies at Distillery (Leipzig), Monza (Frankfurt), Flokati (Munich) and Le Club (Valencia), it is fair to say that Matthias Tanzmann has never played as many international gigs as in the last year.

Musically he has developed significantly over these seven years. Fully committed to deephouse in the beginning, his tracks and sets have become more functional over time. His release ‘Bulldozer’ (MHR022) is a prime example of a captivating bridge built between house and techno, without getting lost in anything considered half-baked Minimal.

‘Restless’ opens a new door for Matthias Tanzmann’s music, and new influences are abound in many of the album tracks. With a distinctive love of percussion as a key new element, he often uses percussive sounds as the hook line of his tracks. Check Rugby, Keep On or Crazy Circus for example. The focus of these tracks, more than ever before in Tanzmann’s productions, is mainly on rhythm and groove.

The collected experience of a seasoned world-class DJ is perfectly reflected. All titles of ‘Restless’ have their own place in the time span of an imaginary club night, from a relaxed start-up mood, to prime time action, to hypnotic fade-outs in the early morning.

The previously released teaser ‘Rugby’ (MHR033) features a special edit of the track and a Mathias Kaden remix – both extremely well received. The original of Rugby, available on the album, is currently being thrashed by the likes of Josh Wink, Karotte, Raresh and 2000 And One. Last but not least, Pokerflat’s Steve Bug selected Keep On for his current Fabric mix CD.
