ABOUT THIS ITEM

It's summer 2011 and things are slowing down on the dancefloors. Maximum deceleration with a minimum frictional loss. Filthy suspense-funk at around 115bpm. And out there at the front of the pack are Yannick Labbé and Daniel 'Stoerte' Becker, the duo better known as Trickski. On their long-awaited debut album "Unreality", the two Berlin-based producers invoke the mighty power of the slow, shifting groove.

The 17 tracks on "Unreality" represent the magnificent preliminary result of the slow evolution of the Trickski sound. House music for dark, intimate clubs in which the cold reality of daily life seems suspended for a night. The title is intended as a reflection on a scene that exists in the twilight zone of collective boundary-hopping and escapism weekend after weekend, following its own, often eccentric laws. "Unreality "is not just a reference to nightlife experiences that the two of them wish for - or those they'd prefer not to acknowledge - but rather to the unrealities of life in general.

The album also features three of the most distinctive contemporary voices: Suol labelmate Fritz Kalkbrenner, Ernesto from Gothenburg, Sweden, and Irfane Khan-Acito from Paris. And the two producers also lend their own vocal talents to some of the tracks. Titanic, peak-time belters such as "Good Time To Pray", "Wilderness" and "Love's A Beat" are followed by sketch-like interludes, which fuse the 17 tracks into a finely-balanced whole.
