Âme Live

Âme is the Karlsruhe pair of Kristian Beyer and Frank Wiedemann, who came up through the German house scene before 'Rej' carried them well beyond it. That track runs on a looping, hypnotic synth line over rolling percussion, and it became one of the defining records of mid-2000s deep house. Alongside Dixon, the two are central figures behind Innervisions, the Berlin-based label that has shaped a moodier, more emotional strand of house music.

The live version of Âme moves away from playing records and builds tracks in real time on synthesisers and drum machines. Arrangements stretch out and shift as they go, so familiar material can turn up reworked or barely recognisable next to new sketches.
