After his last two albums, many of us thought we had lost Berliner Oliver Koletzki to pop music forever. His 2014 album I am OK was pretty packed with gentle, catchy melodies, but its compositions were verging dangerously close to the abyss of mainstream."That's what I wanted to do for a while, also because of my musical background, but this pop thing brings a few strange consequences with it. Sometimes the first row is full of 18-year-old biology students that want to hear cotton candy, even though I want to play techno. I get requests from celebrity magazines but don't want any of that at all, because I see myself as a techno DJ first and foremost," Koletzki tells THUMP.Maybe this is why Koletzki is releasing the unusually hard and bleak EP, Iyéwaye, on April 3. Farthest thing from pop, it sounds like sweat-drenched, dirty Berlin concrete floor music and we can't get enough. Stream the first EP cut below.
