It’s been busy times of late for Phillip Sollmann aka EFDEMIN. After releasing his first full-length album on Dial in 2007 and putting out remixes for Dessous, Aus, Bpitch Control, Morris Audio and Lan Muzic, he was constantly behind the decks, somewhere, presenting his idea of music.

Ably blending deep and classic house, modern berlin and detroit techno. Where Efdemin’s earlier production work was rather focused on slow, abstract house in the vein of Theo Parrish, he has slowly turned to a more functional approach without losing his special sense for deepness.

His sound design has become more unobscured and broad. And he knows just how to adjust old school influences to contemporary listening habits. His DJ style, with its eclectic mix of strict but deeply detailed tracks, provides a continual sense of excitement and creates a kind of grace over the night.

We are very proud to announce now Efdemin’s debut mix-cd, including tracks from respected producers such as Scott Grooves, Brothers’ Vibe, Minilogue, Dettmann & Klock, Patrice Scott, Surgeon, Photek and Tobias. Avoiding a selection of easy hits in favour of a well thought out collection of secret weapons, personal favourites and undiscovered beauties, this is a mix that you won’t get tired of hearing.

The mix is released on Curle, the label where Efdemin released his biggest track to date, ‘Acid Bells’, that topped last year’s charts. It is the first cd on Curle, a label founded in 2006, with releases from Dub Kult, Mark August, Michal Ho, Anthony Collins and Nico Purman, to name a few, under its belt.
