While the esteemed Berlin-based artist, DJ and Stil vor Talent label-owner Oliver Koletzki can look back onto an impressive career since his 2005 debut release ‘Der Mückenschwarm’ on Sven Väth’s Cocoon, he challenges the status quo with every single new production and set, drawing from an ever-evolving plethora of styles and moods. Inspired by his extensive travels around the globe, which have taken him from the deserts of Burning Man, Rainbow Serpent and – this spring – Coachella to the beaches of Tulum, Tel Aviv, Ibiza and beyond, Oliver’s output shines with the maturity of an artist at the top of his game and the playfulness of a youthfully curious mind. Testament to the fact were his last albums ‘The Arc of Tension’ (2017), ‘Fire in the Jungle’ (2019) and ’Made of Wood‘ (2021) – a trilogy exploring the musical space between organic psychedelia and synthetic floor-focus. Meanwhile, Oliver has continuously enabled, fostered and furthered the artistic paths of countless musicians. Looking back over the past 17 years, Township Rebellion, Reinier Zonneveld, KlangKuenstler or HVOB are just a few of many names that link to his label Stil vor Talent. Now, in 2023, Oliver Koletzki is set to release his 10th longplayer ‘Trip to Sanity’ and embark on a live concert tour, marking yet another milestone at the forefront of contemporary electronic music. This Friday organized by Intermezzo Music Rituals, you can join him at @stanica26
