"With Compliments" - Benjamin Wild Album out on Forcetracks

Smooth and soulful minimal-house music. Sometimes you may wonder if it isn't too cheesy, but then you always get those little edgy bits in a track - which make sure it's not. Benjamin Wild likes to shuffle his beats; -this makes the album a well groovy affair. The bass lines are deep dub styled and the chords are made of the midnight stuff you want to hear in a cool and wet inner-city setting.
"With Compliments" is Wild's debut album, following up an impressive season of releases on most of Germany's labels that currently make up an intensely creative scene of dub-house, minimal-house and electronica entrepreneurs: Force-Tracks, Interfakt, Kompakt, Decode, Perlon, Festplatten. Plus contributions on compilations for Raum...Musik, Elektrolux, Dial...
The Album combines Wild's more jazz-influenced stuff with his more minimal, electronic side. It's a very melodic approach to minimal-house, with particular care applied to detail like light percussion and clicking sounds, surrounding heavy bass lines that roll out into a beautiful dub-affair.
