Chris Wayfarer
Entspannte House-Tracks von einem DJ und Produzenten aus Chemnitz.
Stråvalla
Sverige – just the mere word sounds mysterious and evokes phantastic images.
With his new EP Chris Wayfarer creates a musical travelogue: Four varied tracks portray four weeks the music producer has spent in different regions of Sweden on his parental leave. Impressions from a country where the familiar and the foreign seem to intertwine closely. Accordingly, Chris brings together not only different musical styles – being mainly deep house, electronica and downbeat – but combines also melancholy and tranquility with rough edges and, of course, solid club feel.
The journey starts on the rocky west coast of the Kattegat, in the south of Gothenburg. Chris is welcomed by rain showers and storm in Stråvalla. Deep chords and synths characterise the first track with its mystically subdued tones and a groovy essence at the same time. Decently used
Rhodes and harp sounds let sunbeams shine through on the particularly rough beauty of the fjords.

On the southern shore of the forest-fringed lake Vänern, tranquility permeates the atmosphere. In Årnäs, only birds every now and then interrupt a silence never experienced before. Chris has translated this mood into chords, pads and distorted bell sounds that provide depth to the framework of the pad-like bassline and the breakbeats.

In the east, images familiar from own travels or at least from tourism advertising: Red and yellow wooden houses perched on the rocks around Nävekvarn. Countless islands listening to the murmur of the Baltic Sea in the archipelago, and narrow, dusty tracks cutting through the seemingly endless forests. Edgy, bright sounds over a grumbling and sometimes resonant bassline reflect the rough nature of the scenery, accentuated by single pads and a flute-like synth.

The southern tip of Sweden presents itself again differently: The gently undulating landscape of Skåne invites the gaze to wander, all the way out to the endless sea. This soft and wide feel can be witnessed in the closing track on Chris Wayfarer’s EP. Like wafts of mist, Rhodes sounds and synths lie upon a descent downbeat. Strings and horns merge in, at first subtly, and in the second part of the track they proclaim the picturesque beauty of Sweden with literally orchestral solemnity.

Chris Wayfarer über sich
A high goal: Lasting equilibrium and happiness are hard to find and seem to vanish easily. Pursuing those, the German producer and DJ Chris Wayfarer has embarked on an internal and external journey.
Rooted in drum ’n‘ bass and knowing every trick of the underground culture, Chris has recently set forth to the realms of deep house, tech house and electronica. He has created his own musical language, featuring at times a floating vibe, at times a punchy and energetic expression – always honest to himself and to the world, in a natural flow and with care to detail.
Whether in the studio or at the turntables, Chris Wayfarer fuses deep house and tech house with sampling from all kinds of electronic styles, jazz, funk and classical music to grow harmonious compositions. Alternating between groovy, funky, rough, melodic, deep and driving qualities: a musical logbook inviting you to listen, to dance and to be happy.
