Chaim

Alive, Deniz Kurtel & Kiki Rmx Chaim

Chaim is currently killing dance floors and winning hearts. The young DJ and musician from Israel is already one of the most popular talents in the electronic world. In his debut album "Alive," he charms his listeners with music that takes them to ecstasy and expertly leads them into the madness of electronic dance music. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that "Alive" is one of this year's best electronic albums. Chaim takes the entire fullness of house music and weaves it together with playful, electronic sounds to create catchy pop songs. "Alive" is the second single from the album which bears the same name. The song is a gem and a true love anthem. A number of overwhelming emotions are just simmering below the surface of the laid-back, wonderfully nonchalant house grooves. Elegant, ephemeral sounds smooth out the track's rawness. Echoes reminiscent of dub clash with dramatic, oriental sounds, while Meital De Razon rounds out the song with her heartfelt vocals. Kiki has been a part of the BPitch clique since the label's earliest days. He reshapes the original's graceful house groove into a demanding electro beat, taking the track into a completely different playing field in the process. The track explodes with energy, the elegant grooves shattering on the bouncing, electronic bass lines. The vocals stand out with unprecedented urgency in this radical new scenario. The deep house duo Arto Mwambe (Christian Beißwenger and Phillip Lauer) - well-known thanks to diverse vinyl releases on Brontosaurus and last year's "Live at Robert Johnson 06" - were instantly fascinated by the song's intimacy. The pulsating bass line effuses a meditative peace, the crackling clap is intimate and palpable. But that's only the calm before the storm - powerful chords, dazzling strings, and deep organs ignite an emotional inferno on the dance floor. The vocals escalate into an existential indictment. Deniz Kurtel became one of the scene's shooting stars thanks to club tracks on Wolf+L
