Wareika is the collaboration of Henrik Raabe and Jakob Seidensticker, both specialists in dub techniques (Voidcom / Ministry of Sound, Jubilee Rec., Ostwind Rec, Lebensfreude Rec.), jack-of-all-trades Florian Schirmacher (Philpot, Cadenza, Perlon, Poker Flat). Enjoying their favorite records, they realized a musical cooperation, which in fact has what it takes to remain in everlasting remembrance.
As new tartelet artists, Wareika features a unique blend of dub, percussion and afro beat music.
The three ”Wareikians”, each of them well trained and experienced musicians show in their works a crystallization of their musical aspirations, On the A side is Ascending / descending wareika comes up with almost 15 minutes afro-related drums and percussions, accompanied by warm analog-synth raster scanning and highlights, served on a pushing, strong-force but simple beat, that carries one’s body and on and on the b side Baracuda takes you thrugh a acoustic deep house and out of the ten minute groove.
This ain’t no formulaic computer music, these brothers got soul!
