Christian
Christian Rentschler's music career began at the age of 14, leading the EDM band "Spirit of Dance". Through the years, Christian's exploration in the boundaries of musical production has led him to work with various renowned international artists in the music and film industry, such as Emmy Award winning composer Matthias Weber, Charming Horses, Roger Shah, DJ Cosmo, MSTMX, Westbam, Smash HIFI, Gravitonas, Alexander Bard, Eliana Burki, Rene Ablaze, Golan, La Bouche and Alexander Zhakulin.
However, it is with his project Chimera State that Christian truly showcases his passion for collaboration with talented singers and songwriters he has always admired. Working alongside esteemed artists like Beatrix Delgado, Kim Sanders, Eva Leticia Padilla, Samira, Niki Haris and Donna De Lory, Christian combines his exceptional production skills with their exceptional vocal abilities, resulting in an enchanting fusion of electronic beats and captivating melodies. By collaborating with these esteemed artists, Christian not only pays homage to his musical influences but also brings their collective talent to the forefront, creating a harmonious blend of creativity and inspiration.
"Emotion@Web" by Christian Rentschler and Pierre Hansch unveils the creative process of emotional websites through video and sound design.
Naughty North likes music to attack, to straight shoot into your heart. Their last release conquered the German Dance Charts at #30 and "Cyprus" is the logical continuation: A driving kicking rhythm, a whipping bass and spacy vocals that tell about the life of a sweet girl named Nicole who is looking for a better world. Pure escapism on 132 BPM. With remixes by The Saint Paul, Cherry Cheetah and - planned for the fall - the legendary Adana Twins and Sub & Dooster.
With "Supernova" by Chimera State featuring the gorgeous Kim Sanders space and time get explored, while emphasizing hope and reconnection. The pulsing beats and soaring melodies of Chimera States' Progressive & Slap House inspired production blend perfectly with Kim Sanders' ethereal vocals. The single contains remixes from Charming Horses and Chris Creek. You will be transported into a hypnotic world when listening to "Supernova". Enjoy this journey!

Press review:
Hamburg house newcomer Creek jumps about the Dutch ship Dirty Soul with an emotional cut that tickles the nether regions of both prog and house with depth and clarity. Crystalline simplicity: every ounce of our focus is directed on the reflective chord changes that create an air of poignancy and soul without ever over-complicating the groove. A great mood-setter or vibe-flipper, Creek has successful set up an exciting stall for the future.
