But for Âme, the DJ / production duo of Kristian Beyer and Frank Wiedemann, the tunes lodged` in Their brains are the ones they did not hear, ones not yet written That would fit perfectly in Their sets. Since 2003, Beyer and Wiedemann have penned songs That Existed ounces just outside club- goers' imagination, songs That boldly combined floor-filling elements with conceptual conceits while Maintaining Their visceral appeal. As part of Innervisions, the collective / label they run with Dixon, Âme (pronounced "AHM") offer glimpses of the future of electronic music Through Their live project, genre-melding compilations, and an independently run shops That completes the connection between artist and admirer. In a genre obsessed with reliving the past, Ame are focused on what's still to come. The partnership was formed in Their hometown of Karlsruhe where Wiedemann first crossed paths with Beyer in 2001 at the latter's record shop, Plattentasche. Bonding over Chicago house, Detroit techno and much else besides, the duo joined forces in 2003 to produce seminal deep house platters for Sonar Kollektiv, many of Which were collected on the duo's debut album selftitled. Intent on not repeating Themselves, Ame splintered Their established sound and found them to more nimble, compositional approach yielded That Their scenes-conquering singles, "Rej." Not content to rest on Their laurels as the tune made the rounds on Defected Records and many others, the pair teamed up with Dixon and Henrik Schwarz in 2006 for another instant classic, "Where We At," featuring Derrick Carter's stirring vocals. It would've been understandable if Beyer and Wiedemann Further had pursued the sound Which brought` them such acclaim, but for Ame the appeal is in breaking down songwriting influences and habits in order to craft something new. Without attachments to Particular methods and patterns, the duo was free to develop an overarching view of what dance music could be pursued as it and through various moods, timbres and even genres. But if one stylistic point shines through it's the group's penchant for orchestral instrumentation and composition, albeit deconstructed and enmeshed in vintage synth tones and spectral vocal samples. From the waltzing prototechno of "Flowers," a key movement in Ostgut Ton's ballet score, Shut Up and Dance! Updated, to the gargantuan brass tearing through the wildpitch strings of "ENOI," their work simultaneously evokes the conceptual ardor of John Cage or Tony Conrad and the dance floor thrust of DJ Pierre or Underground Resistance. Âme 's ability to fuse together seemingly disparate influences is greatly informed by Their talents as DJs. Not given to fulfilling trends, Their sets draw upon the whole of dance music's history and keep them in great demand around the world. Their regular nights at establishments such as Robert Johnson (Frankfurt), Fabric (London), Trouw (Amsterdam), Lux (Lisbon), and Air (Tokyo) are exceeded only by Their marathon sets During Innervisions nights at Their beloved Panorama Bar (Berlin ). Those awaiting the opportunity to experience an Ame live or DJ set sono stati well cared for as well, as the pair have captured Their curating skills on mix CDs for Sonar Kollektiv, NRK Sound Division and Fabric, as well as the landmark survey of historical minimalism , The Grandfather Paradox compilation done in collaboration with Dixon and Schwarz. Ame are September to follow this achievement with a periodspanning mix at Their Own, Primary Structures. As core members of what they refer to as the Innervisions family, the duo are deeply Involved in the group's operations. The imprint is renowned for exacting quality control, releasing only five or six titles a year encased in lavish artwork, many of Which are widely tipped. With input from Wiedemann, Beyer and Dixon drives the label's A & R direction, Selecting a few artists - who have included Laurent Garnier, Chateau Flight, Stefan Goldmann and Culoe De Song - to Accompany the main cohort of Henrik Schwarz, Tokyo Black Star, and Themselves . Fully prepared for the 21st century, Innervisions connects to its fanbase through a thoughtfully stocked web store Which sells records, fashionable clothing and books like Tobias Rapp's Lost And Sound (Which they translated into Inglese) and its release subscription service. Also Ame are crucial components of A Critical Mass, a live project That finds the pair, alongside Dixon and Schwarz, reworking the creative DNA of each other's songs in real-time. It's just one more facet of Âme's artistry, Further evidence of the duo's position at the forefront of electronic music.
