Marius Lehnert 'Iffi' on Frau Blau

At 121 BPM, 'Iffi' is the slowest record in the field this week. The tempos of the 16 Melodic House & Techno releases range from 121 to 128 BPM. The track has been charted by Sascha Braemer, who placed it fourth among his ten picks for the week of 23 January.

'Iffi' comes from Marius Lehnert, whose records have appeared 13 times since his debut on 8 December 2014. His previous work has largely been on Parquet Recordings, which has carried nine of his releases. His most recent record before this one was 'Orizzonte', which appeared on Natura Viva In The Mix on 29 September 2023. The track is out now on Frau Blau.

Technically speaking, the track shows some interesting choices. It sits in C major and has a Camelot key of 8B. The audio reveals a percussion section that is doing more than the harmonic layers, though the percussion itself is thin on the ground, and a dark top end sits above a temperate level that still has give under the peaks.
