Quick history lesson for you guys… He is the father of progressive house. He taught Richie how to be a fucking rockstar. By doing so, he changed techno. Minimal. Acid. He is, arguably, one of the biggest innovators of house music. Established Cocoon Records. The progression of sound. Of course, I am talking about one of my top 3 favorite artists of all-time, Sven Vath.  By far, one of the most respected and entertaining DJs/producers that graced the turntables. YouTube him. Just show this man some respect already, dammit! ;)

Johnny D’s “Tramodyssee” is a definition of minimal techno. Beautifully crafted and layered in such basic manner, there really is no major breakdown in the entire song. It is more about the experience as a whole — when it strikes at you in middle of the dancefloor. Very uplifting and a sure way you get your body moving, I really can’t think of any other way to describe it. You just have to hear it for yourself and draw your own conclusions. Simply minimalicious.
