Hamburg-based producer Martin Stimming will release his next album, Liquorice, this March.

As a linchpin of Diynamic Music, Stimming is known for his upbeat and often club-ready style of tech house. But Liqourice shows a different side of the producer; hardly any of the tracks ride a 4/4 beat, and most of them rely heavily on field recordings, giving the album an experimental feel. "I kind of sneaked around the normal bassdrum/clap or snare combination," he says. "I only tried to express the feelings I had during this time... without thinking of what will happen with it or who's gonna buy it."

The mood, too, is more somber than usual, a change Stimming attributes to the personal crisis during which he produced much of the album. "I had to sleep on the couch in my 16 square metre studio, certain circumstances didn't allow me to sleep at home." Though he didn't go into further detail on the matter, the song title "Me Against the Bitch" speaks volumes.

As for the album title, Stimming says its an acknowledgment of the fact that the record isn't for everyone. "I called it Liquorice because I simply love real liquorice sweets (all kinds actually), and I have realised that it's something someone loves or hates. There's not much middle ground, and there were probably 50% who like it and the others don't."

Sat, 12 Mar 2011i just call it 'stimmingest'

as soon as i hear the first notes i can tell its from him... i cant do this with a lot of producers.

Sat, 12 Feb 2011stimming's brand of tech house isn't really anything like the rest, i think its just been called that because of the 4/4 beat and the fact its not quite techno quite house.... i thought his last album was a masterpiece and getting good feelings about this one too.. the man's a genius - unparallelled in my opinion.

Wed, 09 Feb 2011Not that he's ever been anything but expressive, this album does seem to promise a whole lot more from Stimming. His last few releases have left me a little cold - at least we now know why he's been off the ball!

I don't mind a bit of sad-house anyway - looks like this will deliver!

Tue, 08 Feb 2011definitely looking forward to this. Stimming is the only producer who can pull me out of my minimal tech world.

Tue, 08 Feb 2011basically all of your favorite labels are tech house.







yes the hate for tech house is unfounded
revivalist music is far worse....thats right im looking at you retro chicago detroit crap that no one actually dances to



bahahahah... this is exactly why I am not a fan of most of the music being played in detroit right now. this crap won't die already!
