DJ Phono - Welcome To Wherever You're No

* ”RICH AND ORGANIC TO THE SCALE OF NICOLAS JAAR, THIS STOMPER WILL HAVE YOU BEGGING
FOR MORE” - DJ MAGAZINE

* DJ Phono releases his first Album on Hamburg record label Diynamic. "Welcome To Wherever You’re Not" is a work of heart, of emotions of awakened, flourishing, and unrequited feelings. It’s something of a kind that could neither be accomplished within a nights work nor even in a cycle of nights, but only in good time.

* DJ Phono and his producer Jimi Siebels (A DIFFERENT JIMI / EGOEXPRESS / IT’S RECORDS) allowed themselves to take this time, two years, to be precise. “I didn’t work consistently on this album, but waited for those moments, that enabled me to work out of a certain emotion. This very often made it possible to capture this momentary emotion within my music. For me these are those sublime moments, that a musician is sometimes lucky to have – the feeling of being able to manifest a mood in music. Music and musician as a medium, if you like...

* The outcome – "Welcome To Wherever You’re Not" – is an album that DJ Phono likes to hear himself. And
Jimi probably does as well. It defines itself in an interjacent, between here and there, between main floor
and backroom, between big and small, between yesterday, today and tomorrow, between pop and club, or
in short: in between worlds.

* One quality all 12 songs from "Welcome To Wherever You’re Not" have in common is their remarkable fashion of elegant reserve. They politely, cautiously, discreetly ask for a bit of attention without letting themselves get hustled into oblivion.
