– It stimulates brain activity.
– It raises serotonin levels.
– It creates euphoria.
– It fights fatigue.
– The best quality is bitter, rich, and the deepest darkest black.
– Some even say that its taste is longer lasting & more intense than the most passionate kiss.
What is this mystical force? None other than ‘Chocolate’ – an apt title for the third album from Tiefschwarz. Having hardly left the pressing plant & already receiving critical acclaim by the international electronic community: DJ, iDJ, Mixmag, Groove, XLR8R, Trax etc as well as crossover praise in NME, The Guardian & Q the brothers’ Black deliver a darker-edged, bittersweet accompaniment album with ‘More Chocolate’.
Indeed, the only problem is that the 16 pieces of ‘Chocolate’ are highly addictive. Once you’ve tasted the edgy vocal contributions of Cassy, Dave Aju, Daniel Wilde & Seth Troxler – added to the bittersweet beat-making expertise of Philipp ‘Santé’ Maier, you’ll be looking everywhere for more…
Tiefschwarz’s own Ali and Basti, were well aware of the potential physiological state which they were hoping to induce, working hard in their studio of Kremmerer Straße, Berlin to carefully concoct ‘More Chocolate,’ the follow up essential piece of the chocolate bar. By harvesting more vocal weirdness, blending just a pinch of club-driven rhythms and tempering them with the perfect amount of deepness, this new luxury assortment is made of peak-time bombs. ‘Oberton’ – is a twisted gem, while ‘Phiba’ & ‘Release’ are insta-future-classics. ‘Give it Me’ & ‘Hornet’ true after-party stompers, while ‘Great Plains’ & ‘Palast’ are pleasant uptempto pastoral escapes. A new collection of seven beat-driven flavours, which taste even better when they are played together…
100% Black brothers quality all the way. It’s time to gorge yourself on ‘More Chocolate’.
