A mashup of ringing techno, wobbling bass and with a guitar and piano or two thrown in for good measure, Guy Gerber has created us a ‘Sleepless’ playlist.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"guy<\/a><\/p>\n

Musician, producer and DJ Guy Gerber has compiled us a playlist of tracks that’ll creep under your skin and pump around your bloodstream. Whether you have the piano riffs rolling around the back of your mind or your heart starts to tick in time to the treble beats of a house tune, something on here will have you hooked. Each and every one is crafted with genius and style, they would have to be to make Guy’s cut.<\/p>\n

An electronic producer, in a way, creates perfected music, removing most opportunities for human error unlike live bands. Guy is moving away from the commercialised EDM mainstream, instead of focusing on the euphoria, he’s creating something for after-hours.\u00a0’11 11′, Guy’s album, has pleasing discordance and awkward beats for you to try and wrap your mind around – either that, or just go with it and shuffle the night away, it’s up to you.<\/p>\n

Nils Frahm\u00a0– ‘Says’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just an incredible artist – it’s amazing what he can do live with so few instruments. I haven’t gotten to see him play myself yet, but I’m definitely looking forward to it. Really beautiful music…analogue genius.<\/p>\n

Chromatics – ‘Into The Black’<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s a cover of a Neil Young song…I don’t know why but I’m just in love with this and always go back listening to it.<\/p>\n

R\u00f6yksopp – ‘Compulsion’<\/strong><\/p>\n

I really loved their first album, and not so long ago, a friend just sent me this song. Beautiful, deep, pop music. Love what these guys are doing with synthesisers.<\/p>\n

Hunter\/Game – ‘Squares’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Love these guys from Italy. They just signed this track, “Squares”, on my\u00a0label Rumors. Really deep and the bass line is so sexy…I\u2019ve been playing this for quite a while. Very proud to release this track.<\/p>\n

Avishai Cohen Trio – ‘Remembering’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Been introduced to this by my very good friend Cesar. Avishai is an amazing contrabass player, but also an incredible composer and pianist. It\u2019s amazing how much emotion is in his playing.<\/a>\u00a0The piano riff especially is executed perfectly.<\/p>\n
