Ein starkes Sound Duo aus Deutschland
Kannt die beiden nicht so, aber bin durchaus begeistert von dem Sound Teppich den man über den norwegischen Fjorden hört, wie geil ist das denn als Szene, regt zum Träumen an oder? Perfekte Kombination aus Sound und Ambiente. Zusätzlich gibt es eine kleine Musik Lektion, was denn bitte "b2b" in der Musikszene bedeuten kann - mehr im Folgenden.
A special location for dreams
If this scenario over the Norwegian fjords is not a perfect fit for Trance music i do not know what else can be better. I only get this "I am ready to fly" message into my brain listening to the sounds and get the additional view - anyone else feeling different? If so write a comment but be specific why you feel different :-)
The act: Einmusik b2b Jonas Saalbach
Interesting stage name - more on that later. The guys behind that live session and other projects combined electronic music sounds I would say include Trance, House and Techno (haha, very generic and easy I know - folks that know me are aware I am no fan of categorizing too much as long as I love the tunes.).
So who are these guys with a "business to business" between their name or what does "b2b" mean only in music?
Einmusik
Einmusik is from Berlin or at least this is the area of his main works(he is called to be a Hamburg musician born in Bielefeld), he is a producer, DJ and creator of a record label. It is said he is active since 20 years but still a bit a secret, well that might be marketing as well. His label Einmusika is known for melodic & deep house. As a DJ he plays various styles and after this sessions with his buddy Jonas Saalbach he became more known within the industry (true or not true?).
Jonas Saalbach
Jonas is a guy that lives music since he was 14, he learned the job of a sound engineer in Frankfurt which made him ready to become a DJ and producer. He had his breakthrough in 2015 at Fusion Festival. Before that he released several tracks already on the label of Einsteinmusik - so here is the link between the two. In 2018he was co-founder of the electronic music imprint Radikon as a platform for like-minded artists. He is a popular live act and mainly considered to play melodic house and techno.
Explaining b2b - what does that mean in music?
Many non music DJ experience guys might ask what the heck that "b2b" means, let me try to explain - it simply stands for "back to back" - when two DJs perform at the same time, quite simple. The b2b format became quite popular in the last times for events,mainly a marketing hype by the organizers to get together some big names and thus generate more interest from the audience. Oirginally it seems the b2b concepts comes from Jamaica:
where DJs would go track for track in an epic dancehall battle, dubbed a “soundclash.”Judged by the whoops and boos from the audience, two or more crews would mob in with their crunchy, frankensteinian sound systems and face off on who had the best tracks and the best rig.
