TRACK PREMIERE : Stimming x Lambert - Glühwürmchen by Headphone Commute published on 2021-09-23T04:55:09Z Only yesterday I have premiered a video from the new XXIM Records signing, Ed Carlsen, and today I am back with another exclusive premiere via XXIM once again, this time from Stimming x Lambert, a duo which should be already familiar to you from their individual solo projects. But let's quickly recap the past of these two. Stimming is an alias of a Hamburg-based producer Martin Stimming, who's known for his uplifting and upbeat tracks via the Diynamic Music imprint, and whom I have placed right alongside my favourite works from the likes of Gidge, Christian Löffler, and Aparde. Lambert, who still hides behind the mysterious mask, has not escaped my ears either, as I have praised his solo-piano whimsical tracks (and live performances) via releases on Dauw and Mercury KX for numerous years (and plenty of Best Of list mentions) as well as this slightly revealing and grand In the studio with Lambert feature [in which we first glimpse that the duo are friends]. So yes, I'm a fan! Thus, you can imagine my enthusiasm for getting these two guys together to work on a record, combining aesthetics of each into one. The result is above expectations, with Lambert's knack for harmonically rich, slightly jazzy, percussive melodies, and Stimming's synthesized explorations with punctuated beat and bass. More on the whole release later, but right now let's tease you with "Glühwürmchen," which, as my trustworthy Google translate informs me, means "firefly" [or literally "glow-worm" in German].
