Shock, contrast and fresh outlooks are abound on \u2018Reflections\u2019, where Stimming uses tracks such as opener \u2018Sunday Morning\u2019 to lull the listener into a groove before hitting them with epic, almost orchestral slaps. Tried and tested house music influences are given new, skewed interpretations on cuts such as the drunken dub of \u2018Song for Isabelle\u2019 and Eastern-European folk-house of \u2018Silver Surfer\u2019 while even more straightforward house templates in \u2018After Eight\u2019 and \u2018One Weekend\u2019 still sound totally unique and refreshing. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018Reflections\u2019 see\u2019s the SAE trained producer tackle vocals for the first time with \u2018The Loneliness\u2019, a bittersweet yet rousing piece which intertwines organic elements with electronic sounds seamlessly. (See YouTube clip below)<\/p>\n<p>Those seeking Stimming anthems which have thus far propelled the artists career won\u2019t be disappointed either as there\u2019s plenty. Whether it be the Detroit-y \u2018The Beauty\u2019 or the lush melodic closer \u2018The Kiss\u2019, dancefloors will surely buckle. A true journey, \u2018Reflections\u2019 ebbs and flows wonderfully with jaw-dropping production allowing Stimming to create some outstanding fusions of styles and moods. <\/p>\n<p>The unmissable \u2018Reflections\u2019 by Stimming is release on Diynamic in March 2009<\/p>\n<p>More data:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beatportal.com\/feed\/item\/first-impressions-stimming-reflections\">http:\/\/www.beatportal.com\/feed\/item\/first-impressions-stimming-reflections<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/stimming\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/stimming<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/yir7PKSjGR8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/yir7PKSjGR8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of my fave producers last year&#8230; Stimming from Hamburg, has a new album coming out in March on the Diynamic label&#8230; Reflections.
