Once upon a time, a town, lost in the middle of Germany, surrounded by hills and forests, crossed by a river, and mostly inhabited by enlightened students. Far from the extravagances of Berlin, JENA is no less flourishing artistically.
Next to Mathias Kaden, The Wighnomy Brothers, sits Mario Willms aka DOUGLAS GREED, sower of organic techno for labels of the likes of Freude Am Tanzen oder Compost.
InFiné celebrates with its XVIIth black chrome release the advent of the town and its “New Innerstate Strategies”, packages Douglas best Deep, House and Techno beats and features the voice of 2009 Springs awakening!
The original version, only available digitally, opens itself on a steady rhythm backed up by enchanted waves, guitar strings and crystallizes an obsessive electronic gong. The melancholy and the groove of the lyrics of DELHIA DE FRANCE drive the listener to an almost Romantic House, as introspective as delightful.
The “Tofu on ice edit ”, A-Side of the 12” synthesizes German Deep-house sound at this best. Led by percussive beats, the voice of Delhia reaches the heights of the stomping pleasures without losing the refinement of the original version.
On the B-Side, “Sapphire” is a track which fully deserves its name. As hard on the dancefloors as the peak time should sound like. As blue as an unleashed sea, where dizzying waves break into bubbling beats, spreading the most compelling Techno foam.
You got the picture? Douglas Greed “New Innerstate Strategies” is not just an ep, it’s a political and environmental statement.
Douglas Greed has collected and mixed some his rarest outtakes and 2009 electronic and indie classics to enchant your way home today and enlighten your Christmas tree tonight. Stream it and get it on you mp3 player HERE.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

InFiné celebrates with its XVIIth black chrome release the advent of Jena and DOUGLAS GREED “New Innerstate Strategies”, packages his best Deep, House and Techno beats and features the voice of 2009 Summer awakening! Jena could appear as one of those little towns of Lord of the Rings, surrounded by rivers, greeneries and hills. Little by little, an exciting scene have emerged with labels of the like “Freude am Tanzen” and artists of the likes of Mathias Kaden or Wighnomy Brothers. No less talented, Douglas has been sowing organic techno beats and emotional electronica since 2005 and pairs up on this ep with Delhia de France…one voice, which you will remind for sure. Already in the flight cases of Josh Wink, Peter Kruder, Claude von Stroke, John Tejada, Chloe or Quentin Harris! Out on vinyl this week! Later this month on digital
