Âme are deep house and techno duo Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer who hail from the German town of Karlsruhe near the French border. They've been releasing records since 2003 and joined the ranks of the German legends with their 2005 release Rej that managed to somehow cross the house/techno/minimal divides. Since then they've been remixing and producing pretty damn prolifically as well as managing their label Innervisions with fellow producer/DJ Dixon.
So lucky us, Âme will be in Melbourne for the Beck's Berlin Sessions that are being held at various clubs around the country. We checked in with Frank of Âme to find out just where their producing is at right now and what we can expect from an Âme set in Melbourne.
What has Âme been up to in the studio lately?
Frank: Within the last months we worked on some remixes which should see the light of day 'til the end of the year. We just finished a remix for Delia Gonzales on DFA records. One for Newworldaquarium on Delsin is just been released. Another one for Brooklyn Club Jam on Rekids might be out soon. Not to forget our rework on Machine's (formerly known as Radioslave) The Fuse coming this month on our own imprint Innervisions. But that's not all ... After the A Critical Mass tour with Dixon and Henrik Schwarz we work together with them both in the studio again, producing a new version of Henriks 2003 classic Chicago which is more or less a result of our live experiences. Plus we are working on a live scoring for a silent movie happening on next years Time Warp Festival here in Germany.
Besides some intense deep house, what can we expect from the Âme show in Melbourne?
Frank: Some techno, good music, new stuff, some classics and hopefully a lot of fun!
Awesome. Âme will be playing at Prince Bandroom in St Kilda on Friday November 13th. Oh, and lastly and probably most importantly you need to know that it's French, means 'soul', is pronounced 'Ahm' and sounds like this.
