Ascii.Disko — Hey

moon26

His self-titled debut album put ASCII.DISKO (aka Daniel Holc) on the inter­na­tional map of well reputed Elec­tro pro­duc­ers.  Released in 2003 on L’AGE D’OR, the album received rav­ing reviews and scored “Album of the Month” in UK‘s DJ Mag­a­zine.  ASCII.DISKO, either live or as a DJ, cre­ates a rough but steady mix of Elec­tro, Wave, Techno, Pop and Rock.  In the sum­mer of 2004 the Ham­burg native moved to Madrid, where he con­tin­ues to live and work. After almost 3 years since his debut, his new album ALIAS was released in 2006 on LADOMAT 2000.
ASCII.DISKO is a per­sonal plat­form that uses an ALIAS to cre­ate a direct route to the dance-floor, where all emo­tions are unloaded.  It con­tra­dicts an „all-too-clean“ world and crashes directly into free­dom, pas­sion and indul­gence.  This music is straight down the line which is exactly what it wants, yet it is never indif­fer­ent.  Con­stantly cre­at­ing Rave moments, at times dirty, at times dif­fused, at other times some­what more min­i­mal but extremely catchy, or sound­ing infected by the bleep-Sound – extremely funky.  ASCII.DISKO con­nects his back­ground and the sta­tus quo of his artis­tic achieve­ments with the drive of today’s club­bers towards escapism, to col­lec­tive exu­ber­ance, to rave.
The new sin­gle fea­tures HEY, one of the key­tracks from the ALIAS album. But the ASCII.DISKO 2007 REMAKE gets rid of all the fake-guitar synthie-walls and strips the track down to a highly seduc­tive Electro-House burner.  In the MOONBOOTICA REMIX on the flip­side HEY under­goes the spe­cial Moon­boot­ica treat­ment.  The two Moon­boo­tique label­heads add a healthy por­tion of creak­ing and tweak the tune into a mon­strous dance­floor killer.
