Wankelmut feat. Charlotte OC releases "Almost Mine"

Berlin DJ and producer Jacob Dilssner aka Wankelmut ranks among the most popular and renowned representatives of electronic music “made in Germany”. Born and raised in East Germany, the 29-year-old made his break in 2012, when his remix for Asaf Avidan’s “One Day / Reckoning Song” soared to #1 in eight European countries, resulting in over two million records sold to date as well as a multitude of Gold and Platinum Awards.

His single “My Head Is A Jungle”, featuring Australian singer Emma-Louise, made it to the Top 20 across Europe, peaking at #5 in the UK charts with Mark Kinchen’s (MK) remix in summer 2014. At the same time, Wankelmut is very active as a remixer and refined tracks by acts such as Gossip, Lenny Kravitz, Hozier or Flight Facilities. His artistic achievements are topped off by around 100 DJ bookings per year, allowing him to present his take on electronic music based on house and techno at clubs and festivals all over the world.

In 2017, Wankelmut has joined forces with British singer Charlotte OC to release his new single “Almost Mine” on FINE / FOUR MUSIC / SONY on April 21. Charlotte OC is considered one of the biggest talents in modern female vocals (“Hot tipped for success”, BBC Radio 1). Her enormous range from R&B to soul and synth pop can be witnessed on her second album, which is slated for spring via Harvest Records.

With “Almost Mine” Wankelmut and Charlotte OC open up a new chapter for the signature Wankelmut sound. Focusing on a modern club sound in a melancholy tinted guise, the track is equally suited for a Berlin After Hour and across European radio. The catchy, almost timeless pop song and Charlotte OC’s distinct vocals mark the next evolutionary step and match Wankelmut’s well-crafted production perfectly.

Summer 2017 may well look forward to this anthem made for radio, clubs and open airs. “Almost Mine” was released April 21, and is accompanied by remixes coming from Low Steppa, DECCO and Mat. Joe.
