Wolfgang Voigt remixes Mohn's Ebertplatz 2020

With their highly acclaimed debut album as Mohn, Wolfgang Voigt and Jörg Burger (of Modernist fame) developed a new breed of tidal funk catering to all your tripping needs. It was definitely an epic album, but not necessarily one people would dance to. Now, the "Ebertplatz 2020 Remixe" collection unlocks the secret floor potential of one of its most accomplished tracks, bringing the bounce back to inner space travel. In his insanely named "HardTranceAtlanticXSMix", Wolfgang Voigt basically just adds a bassdrum to an already sublime original, but those familiar with his work know very well that it's never "just a bassdrum": like a prodigal son, the beat returns to his home country, picking up the acoustic bread crumbs it left behind and rearranging them into a massive wall of sound that may also be used as a launching pad. Trance truly is back, but it wouldn't be without Wolfgang Voigt giving it musical amnesty. "Ebertplatz Remixe 2020" is to be released as 12" vinyl and digital download on September 10th and also includes finely tuned versions by Jörg Burger and Terranova.
