Since Maik swapped his drum kit for a synthesizer and a 303 in the nineties he
became totally addicted to electronic music. Fortunately he didnæt swap his
rhythmic talent and so both his live sets and his productions offer brilliant
and subtle rhythm constructions. His first releases on Tonsport ("Arnika" 2002),
Trapez ("Ein Jahr ein Monat" 2004) and Karmarouge ("Mescal", 2004) proved
already that Maik is at the forefront of talented artists emerging from Cologne,
Germany. His deep understanding for functional sounds enables Maik to playfully
produce upfront clubmusic. Released in the Poker Flat White series, his new EP
"Even If You Sleepô captivates by the straight dancefloor functionality charged
with many elaborate, subtle details and brilliant sounds. Not to forget the huge
portion of groovy funkiness. The three tracks on the EP nicely explore different
nuances of Maik Loewenæs sound. The funky and uplifting "Napping At The Switch"
spreads a positive energetic vibe, while "Bright Night" comes in a darker vein,
before the nerdy "Night Shift" rounds off this brilliant EP.
