Dirty Doering releases debut LP ‘Euch Die Uhren Uns Die Zeit’ on Kattermuke

Euch Die Uhren Uns Die Zeit, an idiom which translates as ‘You’ve got the watches, we’ve got the time…’, is way more than just an album title. It’s a specific mindset perfectly reflecting on a way of life cultivated by the artist known as Dirty Doering 

In South Africa and Berlin, he worked and fully focused on this album over the course of several months. Especially with an album in mind, a body of work that is more than just a compilation of club tracks which equally could be rolled out as a sequence of four EPs. This record tells a full on story, follows a specific theme and provides a coherent listening experience from start to finish. The album reflects upon the multilayered, wide-ranged variety of Dirty Doering’s musical universe. Instead of focusing exclusively on dancefloor-functional 4-2-the-floor structures we see him incorporate broken beats, elements of HipHop, Jazz,World Music and introduce real instruments like guitars or piano and even Classical references into his sonic spectrum. He surely takes us by surprise, bringing sounds to the table one wouldn’t necessarily expect to hear in a Dirty Doering DJ-set, e.g. Downtempo-tunes like ‘Timeless’, ‘Luisa Way’ and ‘Monday Only’ prominently featured at the very beginning and end of this album.

Alongside more club-oriented tunes like ‘Black Forest’, ‘Burning Ham’ or ‘High Level Road’ as well as the seductive NuDisco smash that is ‘Purple Disco’ he creates a thrilling, captivating arc of suspense one cannot deny in its perfect coherence and continuity in which every echo, every delay and every single synth note follows a specific sonic trademark developed, carved out and shaped by Dirty Doering over the course of his career.

After 20 years in business, being a DJ, producer and mastermind of the katermukke imprint euch die uhren uns die zeit is clearly to be seen as an artistic statement, an elevation towards the next level. A level that doesn’t follow the aforementioned regime of watches any more but is more concerned about time. Time as a valuable good to be spent consciously and deliberately.
Following this well reasonable dictum we hope you’re about to enjoy euch die uhren uns die zeit!

Euch die Uhren uns die Zeit is out 14th September 2018
