Mathias Bradler - My Love

"My Love" opens BRADLERMUSIC, the new label of German producer Mathias Bradler, and it opens it the way he wants the imprint understood. The House Mix is vocal house in the classic sense, a diva vocal carried over a rolling groove and a piano hook that arrives exactly where the floor expects it, warm rather than clever and built for the moment a room starts singing back.

On the flip, "My Love (ACID Burn)" takes the same record somewhere else entirely, stripped down to a 303 line and a hard kick for the darker end of the night.

Bradler is not a new name. Through the 2000s he was one half of the duo Mashtronic and the owner of two labels of his own. Mashtronic Rec. was the home of the Mashtronic project and Restart Rec. the home of his BRADLER alias, and across both imprints he released well over fifty records, with support from DJs including Armin van Buuren, John Digweed and Carl Cox. Then the studio went quiet for twelve years while a career as a criminal defence lawyer took everything he had.

BRADLERMUSIC is what he came back for. "My Love" is the first release, the catalogue is mapped out into 2027, and the rawer, deeper techno side of his work runs in parallel on the sibling label AOB1.
