Malente August 6, 2006

The German DJ and producer MALENTE has released a total of four albums on Unique Records since the year 2000. The origin of his name "Malente is based on the fact that he was born in a small town in northern Germany, which is called Malente.

Just about a year after Malente´s remixalbum "Rip It Up on Unique records and a variety of 12´´singles on fine labels such as Moonboutique, Luscious Sounds and Splank! not to forget the other two recent unique singles "Dancefloor Whore & "Like A Freek. Malente is ready to rock, roll and kick of the campaign to his fourth overall album entitled "How Can You Still Stand To Stand Still?.

The appeal of his unique style can be seen by the long list of remixes he has already made: among others theres [b]Louie Austen, Thomilla, Groove Rebels, Bob Sinclar, DJ Friction, The Strike Boys, Frank Popp Ensemble, Monosourround or Le Hammond Inferno. [/b]
Another indication are his many DJ gigs not only in Germany, but worldwide. Solely in 2005, he travelled the USA, Canada, Australia, Thailand, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Russia, Greece and other countries. When Malente is playing one of his outstanding DJ-sets, party is to be expected and no puristic bull****.

The Malente-sound is not simply ElectroHouse. It is more pumping Electro-House stompers with a rockin & funky feel - and this on the basis of that typically positive Malente-Vibe!

Artistically, Malente remains true to his principles and travels through 70s & 80s Funk, Electro and Breakbeats but sounding more electronic and powerful ever since. In Malente´s very own words: "bassline-driven Electro Funk!"

Without a doubt, Malente is amongst the hardest working men in the scene and especially the variety of his music is growing ever since.
