After two very successful 12inches on Philpot, we are proud to present the first full-length album from Break SL aka Sebastian Lohse from Dresden! “City Wasteland” comes as a full CD as well as a split in two 12inches (release of part 2 in early autumn), including some tracks that are vinyl-exclusives. Break SL is still quite young, but you can feel that he already defined his own universe of sounds and proper production skills. After the smooth introduction with House-rooted strings, piano and sweet fm-synthesis, he explores already deepest territory of Detroit-influenced Techno with “Weird Dancer", followed by the lush playground-atmosphere over beatdown-excursions on “Kids".The track “My Love is for U” introduces us to the voice of Syjana, singing a duet with the maestro himself…pure sweetness! “Break it” pushes musical boundaries even further, breaking up with 4 to the floor: Funked-up Electro and meandering soundscapes, reminding us a lot of B12 and the likes…timeless! Next is “Laguna Seca” from his second 12inch on Philpot with the same name - a track that already made it into various charts when it was released, and a true masterpiece of it´s own. “Dirtbomb” shows some nice edges and has a kinda dark feeling to it. Hovering samples and a raw, dirty feel on the drums gives the whole track a very subtle blues, but the following “Slowmotion” pours oil on troubled water and has that endless floating, euphoric feeling, we sometimes miss on the floors of today…
