You may not have heard so much from Andre (aka &ME) so far. Instead of the flash and glitter associated with most of his producer colleagues, he’s preferred to stay in the shadows, co-producing and ghost writing for artists like DJ Hell and Terranova. Now after putting out his first solo single on Keinemusik, which was supported by all the key players (Front Room label boss Jesse Rose, Luke Solomon, Gabriel Ananda, Danny Tenaglia and Dubfire plus many more) &ME is finally ready to ‘go public’ as they say. He may have taken some time to figure out his own style of blending Techno and House music but now he’s out there’s really no escape. With a name like an attention deficit child’s mantra it’s a wonder he stayed ‘in’ so long. The “On” EP is an excursion into the type of techno dusted pulsating minimal house that has been so big for artists like Luciano Esse and Arnaud le Texier and which is heard on heavy rotation in Berlin meccas like Bar25. With A Side ‘On’ ever present digital squelches (reminiscent of a Rolf Harrris style wobble board) are laid over shakers, stripped-back beat and the familiar ‘on’ vocal. It’s not hard to understand why Tiefschwarz have been rinsing it for quite some time now as a huge afterhours groover. B Side ‘Talking Days’, swimming in lush deep techno elements, weaves through more melodic territory but is no less infectious.
