Review

After the huge success of the Tobias and Sebo K versions of Efdemin’s ‘Lohn & Brot’, the next installment in the Liebe*Detail Spezial series is upon us, featuring three exclusive remixes of Sven Weisemann’s ‘Slices’ (featured on Liebe*Detail 012). lars behrenroth remix Comfortably stretching out over 9 minutes, Hamburg local come LA émigré Lars Behrenroth delivers a classic-yet-modern remix of Weisemann’s dubbed out original, gently enveloping us in layers of warmth and a perfect hypnotic vibe. Acoustic hand claps and spacey synths filter across the spectrum whilst maintaining a summery early morning groove which sums up Liebe*Detail’s never ending love affair with the Deep rather nicely indeed. ripperton’s riding high remix One of just a handful of Swiss Producers to make his presence strongly known worldwide, Ripperton presents a subtle and restrained remix which really casts a spell. Re-playing the groove of the original track, this dub is on a more moody tip, as a haunting micro-melody surfaces to offer a positive light from which to build. Gently shaken percussion completes the magic, as Ripperton achieves a wonderful musicality in this, the most reduced cut of the package. boris hotton remix Boris Hotton, another name deservedly gaining some attention at the moment, re-interprets Sven’s track into a whole new journey. Strongly inspired by deep-house roots this is a superb combination of stirring background chords (cleverly mirroring the ‘Slices’ melody) and a groove that again captures the late night vibe that burns so bright in this release. Despite only releasing a handful of EPs previously, Boris’ sound and passion for musical storytelling is clear, and it’s found in abundance here! True to the original’s strong sonic statement, these remixes all possess the kind of depth, quality and space of sound that vinyl excels in capturing so honestly… hence what is on offer here is a beautifully understated snapshot of contemporary House culture

Adultnapper Audiomatique: “Whoa!! What a release. Doesnt get much better than this. Absolutely stunning musicality on all three tracks. Liebe Detail never disappoints!!! ”

Alland Byallo (Liebe*Detail, N: “Stunning rework by my good friend Lars! Charted #1 for March! Ripperton doesn't disappoint, of course. I dont think he ever has! As if Sven Weisemann's original ever needed anything else, Liebe Detail recruits two of dance music's classiest producers and a bright newcomer to deliver reworks that are fat slices of gorgeous! Nice work as always! ”

c/rock (Cocoon): “ wicked Ripperton Remix!”

D'Julz (Pokerflat): “ Lars remix in my box, sure nice stuff ... will chart”

Dj Koze (International Pony): “mag den B1 Mix sehr gerne. sher schöne”

Giles Smith DJ MAG (UK): “Behrenroth's mix is cool with its gradual, building groove. Ripperton's mix is nice too. minimal beats but a nice timeless feel with its sweet pads and synths. ”

Groove Mag (GER): “Liebe & Detail Spezial widmet sich ausgewählten Tracks des Mutterlabels und lässt diese remixen. Hier haben sich Lars Behrenroth, Ripperton und Boris Hutton den Sven-Weisemann-Track von der Liebe & Detail 012 noch mal vorgenommen und überarbeitet. Alle drei Mixe bleiben der Sven-Weisemann-typischen, relaxten, angedubt-housigen Stimmung treu, nur Herr Behrenroth schiebt den Track etwas näher Richtung Tanzfläche. So bewegen sich alle Mixe zwischen der heimischen Couch und dem Moment in der Nacht, in dem man sich auf selbige wieder zurück wünscht. MB”

Resident Advisor NET: “Liebe*Detail are touting their sixth “spezial” release as the heir to the popular fifth in the series, the Tobias and Sebo K rejigs of Efdemin’s ‘Lohn & Brot’. Luckily, the producers they’ve found to do the duty for Sven Weisemann’s ‘Slices’, which shared an earlier Liebe*Detail 12-Inch with Matthias Meyer, have pulled off the feat of making remixes genuinely worthy of a sublime original. All of the tracks here retain the elegant and grown-up vibe of ‘Slices’, and none try to add much that wasn’t already there. Lars Behrenroth’s keeps the closest structurally, unfurling at a leisurely pace and nearing the nine and a half minute mark. Ripperton’s cut is the most reduced, pushing things toward minimal. New kid on the street Boris Hotton puts in a slightly dubby effort. There are no sleazy basslines or pumping rhythms gerrymandered out of the parts here, and that’s no small portion of the achievement. Instead, everything good about ‘Slices’ is present in each mix. Hotton brings out a luminescent intensity, Behrenroth plays enjoyably with the melody and adds some perfect hand claps, and Ripperton leaves things stripped down in such a way that his mix glides right by you, and as soon as you’ve finished, you want it to glide by you again. Perhaps that doesn’t sound like a huge amount to go on about, but it’s the attention to detail in these manipulations that makes each of these tracks so beguiling.”

Sebo K (Mobilee): “ sven weisemann remixe sind alle toll aber ich denke der lars behrenroth mix macht für mich das rennen.”

SLAM (Soma): “ Very nice deep tracks will play this lots for sure .”
