Multitalented musicians Johannes Brecht and Christian Prommer have collaborated on a release with a difference for respected Hamburg label Diynamic.

Voix Grave’ consists of an atmospheric classical composition from the pair, with an electronic version from each producer. To purchase – Click Here

The original composition features echoing drums, plucked violins and an emotive cello. Whilst it may surprise those who associate Diynamic with its more dancefloor-ready releases, the classical inclusion is a testimony to the label’s forward-thinking approach.

Berlin-based Christian Prommer has a long history of fusing his jazz and classical roots with his love of techno and electronica, with a career spanning over two decades and taking in boundary-pushing projects like Drumlesson.

As a producer, he’s previously released on the likes of !K7, Life and Death, Sonar Kollektiv and Buzzing Fly. Here, he makes his Diynamic debut with a version that perfectly fits within the label’s sound; a fast-paced beat underpins the plucked strings of the original, utilised like synths. Featuring the original’s mournful violin in the breakdown, the track builds to a dramatic peak.

Meanwhile, Diynamic member Johannes Brecht‘s version has already proved to be a standout moment in label boss Solomun’s recent sets. Running at a full 10 minutes in length, Brecht utilises this time to build up to waves of climactic moments whilst peeling back layers to reveal the original composition’s melodies.

Voix Grave’ as a package is an innovative project, with both electronic versions accentuating the qualities of the original whilst providing genuinely club-appropriate takes on the record. It’s further evidence of Diynamic‘s commitment to their creative vision, even as the label continues to expand to global proportions.
