Producer Holger Behn aka H.O.S.H. is back on Stil vor Talent with his third
release and second 12inch on Oliver Koletzki's imprint. His latest two tracks
are all about house music, while always keeping a strict eye on the dancefloor.
It starts with the tech-house anthem "Grunanlage", the name of a sunday
afternoon open air in H.O.S.H.s hometown Hamburg that he co-organises. The tune
features a great clappy snare and some wonderful Balearic guitar melodies, which
swing over the fast loop. This tune is going to put a smile on your face
wherever you are. On the flip there is "Blaupause", which translates as
blueprint and is a dreamy housy pusher that keeps grooving with its
synthie-stabs and warm bassline. Later in the track H.O.S.H. adds an oldschool
piano that pushes the track into another state with its drifting melody. It
reminds us of so very many great rave moments. However, H.O.S.H. never gives in
to the temptation of drifting off into cheese, stays cool at any given moment
and keeps the seal of quality for his music very high. "Blaupause" is a
wonderful summery teaser that never explodes, but keeps imploding! H.O.S.H. once
again does what he does best: delivering two wonderfully melodic tracks that
fluctuate perfectly between house and techno. Just the way we like it.
