MKR 046EP
|
SoulPhiction follows 2014's Riot Party EP with Riot Party II, delivering more club music off the beaten track. He induces trademark claustrophobic pressure on "Amerika," provides some moody downbeat slickness on "Misty Roots," and serves up an acid-tinged tool called "Bricks" that twists and twitches in and out of shape.

Soulphiction aka Michel Baumann's music animates you because of the natural quality of his rhythms. This soulfulness and warmth that he brings out from the machines is simply phat like nothing else. Independent from the breeze in the studio, these tones must be released into the world. Musik Krause takes it in. The result here is five songs that are old-school yet modern.

CCS 085EP
|
Circus Company adds another legend to its roster: SoulPhiction. Michel Baumann has long been a steadfast measure of everything 4/4 electronic music should be, both as SoulPhiction and Jackmate and as a curator of Philpot Records. "Glitz" comes rocking in on the kind of kinky groove that tickles our limbs just right, taking time for the beat to settle before unfurling a sumptuous funk lick and a bittersweet vocal hook. "Jinx," remixed by Patrice Scott provides a futuristic acid treatment, laying out a rigid drum machine mantra and bubbling 303 as a backbone.

PAMPA 019EP
|
2018 repress. Soulphiction's When Radio Was Boss is a tribute to those magical electromagnetic waves that ruled yesteryear. With that prototypical Pampa percussion and a warm, round bass line combined with some symphonic froth, this track definitely demands airplay. And right in the middle, catch a shout-out from WBAU, the call-sign of the defunct New York radio station that counted members of Public Enemy and hosts of Yo! MTV Raps amongst its staff. The BPM gets cranked down just a bit for "Maybachswagger," which has roller-skating on its mind. A kawaii disco vibe drops in, seducing you onto the rink for a few laidback laps.

MKR 026EP
|
This is part two of Soulphiction's Chocolettes series. Whether as Soulphiction, Jackmate or as Manmade Science, Michel Baumann guarantees soul satisfaction. "The Royal Pennekaums (Chocolettes Nervous Mix)" is swinging electronic funk in the vein of International Pony. "Nobody Ever" is a majestic, slow-motion kicker -- true downbeat-house for reflective moments. "In Dub" closes the ranks between dub and techno, with wonderful, buzzing background grooves. Lastly, "Sirens" is short, sweet, Maritime gangster-house -- a lucrative trip into the witch's cauldron.

Three killa rhythm-isms from Soulphiction, full of nutritional value and whole grain groove. This is music for emotional dancefloors. "Maoamba" is a wonderful Afro-jazz dervish, pure magical madness for the moments when everything simmers and spins. "Rise" is a deep, jazz-filled slider that creeps under the skin. "Jungle AD" features careening and rolling bass swells. A clear declaration that states: "music without bass is stupid!"

PHP 017EP

"Here comes the first 12" after SoulPhictions State of Euphoria album-release on Jazzanovas Sonar Kollektiv-Imprint. And it differs...!!! Back home from a safari with his son in Kenya, he's kicking his atmospheric tracks to the limit, you can literally feel the vibes of the mara down Africa! 'Masai Mara' drops some lovely spring-flavoured arpeggios on massive wardrums, layering it to an absolute climax...the good side of trance! 'Keekorok' on the flip is a sunriser, with its sliding synthstabs and old-school but totally up-pushing beats, which will work the dancefloor for shure."

FREUDE 017EP
|
"2003 saw not only Johnny Cash make the final payment to his maker, but the godfather of verbal foreplay Barry White, responsible for the existence of half of the America, at 58 years has also been called to the great stage in the sky. However, Mr. White's CD's for quite a few decades, resounded in the bedrooms of the world, compelling the couples of the world to make sweet love. The Stuttgart papi Michel Baumann alias Soulphiction (sometimes Jackmate) also gets the juices flowing, however manifested as a compulsion to move. Beginning with a radio show intro, he urges us on like the radio should. And rightly so. Liquid patterns is soaked with pure Rhodes, and applied, frenetic subterranean bass. Through a fully conscious, shifting rhythm and jazz hi-hat that whispers as if a drum is being stroked with a brush, it manages a compelling groove. Length doesn't play a role here, answering the question of why anything should be extended when the moment of euphoria has been reached. White ropes demonstrates how a 'white bread' can produce the same velvety, soulful sound of black music, and with the same understanding to boot. Central to the setting is an unbelievable voice which can evoke moments similar to the style of the late Mr. White; approach with caution. An unbelievably soulful feeling is achieved with this musical potion of deep song embedded with house beats. Mr. Soulphiction is ready to take over."
