This month Timo Maas kicking off with the Album Release party at Egg London where he makes a rare UK appearance on Friday March 8th.
Reinforcing his reputation as one of German electronic music’s most colourful characters, Timo Maas continues to satisfy his first love – the dancefloor – with ‘Pop A Bubble’, his own original contribution to Cocoon’s 100th release compilation, and remixes for James Teej on Sasha’s Last Night On Earth label and Johnny Mikes on Lower East Records; reworkings that add to a Remix pedigree that includes Madonna, Depeche Mode, Muse, Fatboy Slim and beyond.
Ever at ease straddling the somewhat disparate worlds of underground electronic music culture and credible muso pop, Timo and his production partner, Santos, created Rockets & Ponies for both their own productions, and outings from the likes of Maetrik, Tobi Neumann, Riva Starr, Giorgio Roma and more. The success and variety of the label’s output has undoubtedly impacted on 'Lifer', giving it a broader range of influences and styles than any of his previous albums. The result is a collection that shows Timo Maas is at the very top of his game. Always a special occasion whenever Timo gets behind the decks, clubbers are in for a sublime evening of exclusives from twisted, boundary-less techno and beyond from him and Rocket & Ponies' Santos and James Teej.
For those that have followed the trajectory of Maas’ previous 3 albums (Loud, Pictures and 2009’s Return Of The Legend), 'Lifer' contains yet more wildly divergent collaborators, from Brighton chanteuse, Katie Cruel (formerly of We Fell To Earth and now signed to Rockets & Ponies), who weighs in with the haunting ‘Articulation’; the gritty rap delivered by rising one-to-watch, Mikill Pane on ‘Grown-Up’, through to Placebo singer Brian Molko’s contribution to ‘College 84’, while James Lavelle delivers a primo vocal on the dramatic ‘The Hunted’ (the only vocal he’s done outside of U.N.K.L.E).
