From Boys Noize to Diynamic, Hamburg, Germany maintains a sterling reputation in dance music. Mirau Musik head Arp Aubert fits right in amongst his much lauded peers thanks to a catalogue of tunes that has earned his label's motto of "not mass, but class" in releasing tunes by acts like Mano Le Tough and Iron Curtis.
Even without prior collaborator Tensnake, Arp Aubert's tunes and selections maintain the aura of Hamburg house: thoughtful, on the deeper side, and always weaving an aesthetic narrative that appeals to the visceral as much as the cerebral.
