…Marioland!
Once upon a time, a
town, lost in the middle of Germany, surrounded by hills and forests, crossed
by a river, and mostly inhabited by enlightened students. Far from the
extravagances of Berlin, JENA is no less
flourishing artistically.
Next to Mathias Kaden, The Wighnomy Brothers, sits Mario
Willms aka DOUGLAS GREED, sower of
organic techno for labels of the likes of Freude Am Tanzen oder Compost.
InFiné celebrates with its XVIIth black chrome
release the advent of the town and its “New Innerstate Strategies”, packages
Douglas best Deep, House and Techno beats and features the voice of 2009
Springs awakening!
The original version, only available digitally, opens
itself on a steady rhythm backed up by enchanted waves, guitar strings and
crystallizes an obsessive electronic gong. The melancholy and the groove of the
lyrics of DELHIA DE FRANCE
drive the listener to an almost Romantic House, as introspective as delightful.
The “Tofu on ice edit ”, A-Side of the 12” synthesizes
German Deep-house sound at this best. Led by percussive beats, the voice of
Delhia reaches the heights of the stomping pleasures without losing the
refinement of the original version.
On the B-Side, “Sapphire” is a track which fully deserves
its name. As hard on the dancefloors as the peak time should sound like. As
blue as an unleashed sea, where dizzying waves break into bubbling beats,
spreading the most compelling Techno foam.
You got the picture? Douglas Greed “New Innerstate
Strategies” is not just an ep, it’s a political and environmental statement.
Music Bless You!

The Tofu Mix does pack more punch than the original and has a more American Runway sound and that's why I love it.

“I think that the original of "New Innerstate Strategies" is really classy stuff. Deep, classic sound. Not the sort of stuff I'm playing in peak-time, but a great track that would be DOPE for after-hours or warm-up. :) Thoughtful and fresh.”
ALEX FLITSCH_Connoisseur_GER
Lovely tracks with a strong voice. My favs are the Tofu On Ice and the Frech Wip Edit....
