Timo Maas and Marc Romboy collaborate with AI on new single
DANCE music has seen some amazing collaborations since it emerged into the morning sunshine over three decades ago.
The latest rock dancefloor collaboration followed a spontaneous studio session that took place after veteran DJ/producers Timo Maas and Marc Romboy enjoyed an unforgettable back-to-back set in 2022.
Exploring new creative territories, the hotly anticipated Die Zeit in April was warmly welcomed by DJs and fans alike.
The follow-up single, Yume No Yōna, dropped last week, again showcasing the immense talent of the duo.
Yume No Yōna is a driving and energetic club track with AI vocal samples. Techno continues to lead the way in the evolution of electronic music. The synthesized voice adds a unique and compelling element to the track as she describes an idyllic dreamlike situation the duo experienced. The song flawlessly blends the signature styles of both artists, with Romboy’s expertly crafted Moog bass-driven arpeggios blending seamlessly with Maas’ driving rhythms and beats.
We caught up with Timo and Marc this week and they talked us through ten great tracks, including some of the new music they’ve been making together.
Listen to Timo and Marc’s picks and read what they had to say about the music below.
Thymus Maas
Novalima – Beto Kele (Timo Maas Remix) (nerve records)
I recently surprised the band with a remix they had no idea about… the result is a very vibey and positive rework in an afro/latin style… great for the summer!
Marc Romboy & Timo Maas – Die Zeit (Systematic Recordings)
Our first collaboration… German choir with a meaning, very distinctive modern electronic sounds! Great reactions everywhere…here’s the studio live session of the track…love it!
Ken Hayakawa – Mute Air (Stripped Down Rec)
Super nice very trippy trip through the cosmos of electronics…worked great in my sets. Watch out for Ken! More great things to eat.
Sinisa Tamamovic – All lost for love (Night Light Rec)
Sinisa has been a force for delivering rolling, driving proper club courses for years… this is one of his latest, and he’s kicking it to the max again.
Tal Fussman – Persona (Innervision)
Wild, powerful rather indie dance approach here… super driven, super unique!
MARC ROMBOY
Denis Horvat – Portrait of a lady (inner visions)
One of my current favorite tracks to play in the club. Denis knows how to combine excellent synth sounds and classic house vocals in a perfect way. High kitchen!
Marc Romboy – Exeter (Awesome Soundwave)
One of the tracks from my new album Music Made For Aliens which I released on Carl Cox and Chris Coe’s label Awesome Soundwave. I hope the aliens like this track as much as I do.
Rex The Dog – Change this pain for ecstasy (Compact):
The 90s are back in a modern way. Another masterpiece from a British producer I respect a lot.
Marc Romboy & Timo Maas – Die Zeit (Synthapella) (Systematic Recordings):
The other track with my bud Timo, we just put out on Systematic Recordings. Here’s the beat-less synth-focused synthapella version.
Robert Babicz – Light of the Universe (Awesome Soundwave)
Our mutual friend and audio professor Robert Babicz, also out on Awesome Soundwave.
