Our TRAPEZ release for August comes from Malek Ales. And if you think this sounds familiar you are right he has been recording a couple of release us with and also this release won’t let you down. It keeps the beat rolling and the sequences screaming, not forgetting that Detroit techno is a constant reference for him, this is pure mayhem for the dance floor at its best with a strong rolling groove and big exposed synth lead that penetrate the rhythm section to give you full satisfaction on the dance floor.

Welcome to the 23rd edition of Tour De Traum. Riley Reinhold has taken on the challenge to select tracks over a period of 6th months. Tracks from artists who have been with the series for a while releasing exclusively here, next to some established big names from TRAUM such as Teho and James Harcourt. The release also sees the return of Cosmic Sandwich aka Steve Barnes aka Process after a break of more than 10 year! And certainly the release will also celebrate newly discovered artists who are the next generation often not educated by the dance-floor but purely by their own emotions, recorded in bedrooms and small studios. Enjoy! More->
After a break of more than 10 years Cosmic Sandwich a.k.a Steve Barnes returns with a 6 track EP! He belongs to the original and early clique of TRAUM artists, who defined a new way of minimalism alongside Philippe Cam, Miss Dinky, Fairmont, Broker/Dealer and Anton Kubikov. And it is quite obvious this EP resembles Steves music in it's purest form featuring a hybrid of his projects Process and Cosmic Sandwich. The Brighton-based artist is a person who draws from the world of arts and connects different genres and perspectives in the stunning blend. Minimalist, introvert, dubby, spacious, alternative electronic music not necesserly for the Club, but super cool to listen to. Expect nothing but deep moments! More->
