PREMIERE: Franz Matthews - As I Am [HIFI/LOFI Records] by whypeopledance published on 2023-01-12T20:10:07Z https://soundcloud.com/franz-matthews https://soundcloud.com/hifi-lofi-records ๐ https://hifilofirecords.fanlink.to/asiam ๐ https://youtu.be/lPzOq1y9Nt8 Franco-German producer Franz Matthews strikes back with his 'As I Am' EP on his own imprint HIFI/LOFI Records, a catchy Indie Dance groover with infamous self-reflecting vocals, that is set to wake up every festival stage this summer. Made of 2 sunny originals and backed up by 3 killer remixes from power producers Vhyce, Yame and Tegel Boys, the EP covers all ranges of the Indie Dance spectrum beautifully. After a strong year 2022 with a string of praised releases like The Question, which has seen major players like Ame, The Economist or Innellea widely supporting its remixes of Aera & The Organism, Franz Matthews digs in his spiritual inspirations again with โAs I Amโ. Produced during Matthews' time spent in Barcelona at the beginning of summer 22, As I Am lifts off with a carpet of heavy organs unfolding in a powered up euphoria of synth chords, before a choir of empowering & self reflective gang vocals, reminiscent of early LCD Soundsystem's 'Sound of Silver' days, throw us in our face to fully accept who we are and be proud of our uniqueness. The trip takes us even further in a cosmic festival of funky acid leads which will mind bend any listener that will encounter the path of this catchy happiness filler. Belgian cosmic disco mastermind Vhyce steps in for the first remix, with a spacey and mental exploration of the eponymous single. Next in row, Ukrainian โhappy technoโ duo Yame reinterpret As I Am in a total opposite direction with their signature vocoded and bonker production prowesses. Sonnenallee, the second original track of the EP, is a sunny and slightly deranged funky stomper initially produced at the time of Franz's debut 'Ostkreuz' release. No one else than the fantastic disco pilot crew of Tegel Boys could close this EP more beautifully, with their infamous and obsessive acid-boogie styled hooks, making you want to dance until you canโt feel your legs no more.
