Format: 12" in printed label sleeve.
CAT: PAMPA040

DJ Koze unveils a spiritual and astonishing journey into ecstatic realms with the "Wespennest" EP. The visionary artist and master of electronic sound presents his first solo release after the global club success in 2018 with "Pick Up."

"Candidasa" and "Wespennest" are the result of DJ Koze's inspiring stay in a secluded Benedictine monastery on the enchanting island of Sulawesi. Amidst this idyllic setting, he found the perfect environment to unleash his musical vision. He composed all the music for "Candidasa" while lying face down, in an act of deep devotion and self-reflection. To achieve this, he subsisted exclusively on so-called heroin kebabs to immerse himself in a trance-like state of creative flow. The result is a soundscape of unimaginable depth and beauty that enchants the senses and transports listeners to another dimension by massively increasing the flicker fusion frequency.

In "Wespennest," the wonderful Sophia Kennedy takes the stage and brings a new dimension to the music with her striking lyrics and vocals. With generous dedication, Sophia has provided exclusive excerpts from her yet-to-be-released songs, which gives this track a radiant psychedelic power. The combination of DJ Koze's musical genius and Sophia Kennedy's glorious vocals creates a club track full of wonder, opening up an ecstatic mystical world for listeners. It has already become an instant classic of German dance music.

With "Candidasa" and "Wespennest," DJ Koze has once again pushed the boundaries of electronic sounds and created a spiritual journey that touches the soul and frees the mind. This EP is the first preview of his highly anticipated new album, which will be released in 2024. The wait until the release can be wonderfully bridged with the magical album "Hit Parade," which DJ Koze produced for the legendary British artist Róisín Murphy, and in which we can let ourselves be carried away into the world of musical genius.
