Heavy Day

Berlin-based Sub Static co-owner Falko Brocksieper presents his second full-length release on his label. After a remarkable number of EPs and remixes, Heavy Day is chock-full of tough and tasty techno. Brocksieper is always king of the hill on his tracks, sovereignty dominating beats and melodies, again and again transferring it all into his trademark airy, funky groove. In addition to floor-pushers like "Lament" and "The Whole Story," Heavy Day also features a great portion of organic organ-house, plucked violin-techno and pleasant dub-tronica. Also featured on this release are stellar guest vocal performances from Richard Davis, Big Bully and MIA. On Heavy Day, Brocksieper spins out true techno heaviness while still retaining an austere minimalist gesture.
