NRK’s COAST2COAST series proves why it’s the most forward thinking comp series on the market with this amazing mix from Germany’s Âme. Quite simply the most groundbreaking and relevant house team on the planet right now, Âme lay down a stunning mix of deep and minimal house, including old and new cuts from the likes of Carl Craig, Oscar G, Ferrer & Sydenham and Stefan Goldmann.
The COAST2COAST series proudly adds Germany’s Âme to the roster (following in the footsteps of Ron Trent, Quentin Harris and Kerri Chandler). Frank Wiedemann & Kristian Beyer show us just why they are being hailed as the best production & DJ team on the planet right now, with a sophisticated and well programmed DJ mix that teases and touches with dubby house sounds, intricate minimal techno and soulful instrumentals.
There genre-breaking "Rej" track from 2005 was perhaps one of the biggest underground records that year, and was subsequently licensed to Defected from Sonar Kollectiv, the German label that the guys began honing their sound for. Kristian and Frank first met up through Kristian's recordshop "Plattentasche" in Karlsruhe , Germany. Frank, already experienced with his former project Soul FC (release on FSOJ), and Kristian, being a scientific music nerd in a positive way, one day decided to tweak the knobs together. Kristian has always been turned on by the voices shouting out of motor city, by the likes of Moodyman, Underground Resistance and Carl Craig as well as the New York City Sound of Blaze and Metro Area, whereas Frank’s broad spectrum of influences ranges from Chateau Flight, John Tejada over to IG Culture and Jazzanova. Brilliant remixes for the likes of Roy Ayers, Rodamaal, Akabu and Ferrer & Sydenham have put Âme on the production map, and the duo have been tearing up nightclubs with their no-nonsense, intelligent house sounds all over the World of late.
