MO' HORIZONS consists of producers, musicians and DJ's Ralf Droesemeyer and the Mark ‘Foh’ Wetzler. Ralf is reknown for his work with, amongst many others, Cunnie Williams or Randy Crawford.
Together these two lads form a unit that’s been in effect for a few years already, slowly, but steadily gaining props and respect from many DJ celebs drop their name in the lounges and clubs. So Ralf and Foh decided that the time is now to really come up with their very own stuff and start a serious musical project - Mo’ Horizons saw the light of day..
Mo’s first two 12“s 'Yes Baby Yes' and 'Foto Viva' were so sucessful in the clubs and on the dancefloors that they made it up to the top ten of DCC (official german club charts) and 'Foto Viva' even became a radio hit. On their first album ‘Come touch the sun’ (the record is dedicated to the sun giving warmth & light to all people) the two masterminds melt influences ranging from the soulful fifties, sixties & funky seventies straight to the nineties. Integrating modern production techniques and a handful of talented live-musicians and vocalists they create a sound that varies in mood and style but is still homogenous and therefore can easily be identified as Mo’ Horizons. Nujazz, soul, afro, latin, funk, downbeat, dub, triphop or bigbeat: Mo’ Horizons break all boundaries and tear down all musical barricades.
PRESS STATEMENTS:
'An absolute gem of an album from Germany's Stereo Deluxe imprint that's just begging for someone to pick it up over here and make 'em massive. Imagine all the very best bits of Thievery Corporation, Smoke City, Air and Akasha, all delivered with the sultriest German poise this side of Marlene Dietrich as bossa, latin, freewheelin' funk and lascivious exotica hit the dancefloor. This would the release of the month in any other month.'
MUZIK Magazine, Calvin Bush 'Yes, this is the view from Café del Mar and exactly this the description for this music. 9 musicians playing fantastic, soulful sounds to widen your horizon for to be able to touch the sun.
RESPECT!!!'
