- The Berlin producer will release his debut album in September.
Markus Schatz will release his first album Smokin' Wild in September.
Schatz is a Berlin-based producer known for a deep and jazzy brand of tech house, releasing on labels like Highgrade and Cargo Edition since 2008, collaborating with Thomas Haerter, Lars Wickinger and Moritz Piske along the way. Parisian Salon Records, which previously put out Schatz' Boo Bop EP in 2010, will release Smokin' Wild, which sees Schatz continuing the jazz-inflected mood by adding live instruments to his tracks. Live piano, keyboards and vocals adorn the tracks, played by jazz musicians Khayum Kimaz, Florian Finis, and sung by Steve Young, respectively. The album will be released on both CD and vinyl, with a vinyl 12-inch sampler containing three tracks from the album arriving later this month.
