Oliver Koletzki (Stil vor Talent x Germany)
https://soundcloud.com/oliverkoletzki

‘I am O.K.’ reads the name of the new album of the Berlin-based producer, DJ and label owner Oliver Koletzki. The title’s ambiguity is, of course, deliberate: there’s a deeper meaning hidden behind the humorous facade that is Chrisse Kunst’s hand-drawn cover, which depicts an unadorned thirteen-year-old Oliver sporting nerd glasses and a striped jumper: I am Oliver Koletzki, raw and authentic. Because, for his fifth studio album, Oliver Koletzki musically looks towards the unaf- fected freshness of back in the day, and thus, consciously returns to his roots.
Back then, everything starts with an old C64 and his first hip-hop beats. Oliver Koletzki quickly discovers a love for elec- tronic sounds, which he produces on one of the first Atari ST computers. At the age of eighteen, he initially plays records in his hometown of Brunswick, quickly becoming an in demand DJ of the local scene. In 2000, he then decides to move to Berlin in order to turn his passion into a career – and, of course, to immerse himself in the city’s excessive nightlife. The first steps are always the hardest though, and Oliver Koletzki has to practise patience for a few years and wait for his breakthrough. In 2005, the superstar-DJ Sven Väth comes across a self-pressed white-label vinyl: Oliver Koletzki’s ‘Der Mückenschwarm’. Convinced by track’s incredible potential, Väth pushes for an official release via his Cocoon imprint.
The critical and consumer resonance is definitive – Oliver Koletzki is the man of the hour. The readers of Groove Magazine vote him Newcomer of the Year. Gigs in renowned European clubs and a residency at the infamous Bar 25 follow, while ‘Get Wasted’, his debut album, strengthens Oliver Koletzki’s position in the scene. After numerous EPs, Oliver Koletzki’s
second long-player, ‘Großstadtmärchen’, is released in 2009. Here, he bedazzles with collaborations with various vocal- ists, such as MIA’s Mietze Katz or the Bundesvision Song Contest winner Axel Bosse, and he thus showcases a hidden pop sensibility without losing sight of the underground. While ‘Lovestoned’, a declaration of love pressed on CD, is already in the making, ‘Hypnotized’ by Oliver Koletzki and Fran snowballs into a radio hit over night.
