dana ruh: still vause

After Dana Ruh's highly-acclaimed contribution for the Slices Of Life 10.1 compilation in 2018, now her 12" follows with three driving, funky, and percussive house tracks. As DJ, producer, and label owner (Brouquade, Cave Recordings) and co-distribution owner (KMA60), Dana Ruh is one of the driving forces of the Berlin club music scene. Beyond her world-renown DJ skills and running a Berlin-based record shop and event space, Dana Ruh has become a prolific producer, who spends every free minute on developing her unique take on electronic music. She releases, not only on her own labels Brouquade and Cave Recordings, but also other imprints like Underground Quality, Ostgut Ton (in collaboration with André Galuzzi), and RDV. Her club music productions are defined by a particular hazy and moody touch. The tracks are well arranged and always contain the right amount of roughness, which lets the music sound alive and organic. With Still Vause, Dana Ruh presents three powerful titles from driving and percussive, to funky and stripped down. "My Friendly Fire" sends you on a hypnotic drive accompanied by warm sub bass frequencies that make your trouser legs flutter. "Takes Time" brings you back to reality with its energetic drumming, and the funky, minimal. "To Convince" finalizes this ep with organic percussions and warm sounding strings.
