There’s a buoyant and vibrant playfulness woven through Will Hofbauer’s output – which is exactly the vibe the Third Place label boss, DJ and producer brings for a “dancefloor focused” Crack Mix described by the artist as a “warm-up to peak-time”.
The set also taps into the Hofbauer’s tendency toward a textural eclecticism, as his latest 12” The Shovel Is a Shovel was a Shovel – released via Wisdom Teeth – showcases. “I picked out some clubby faves old and new and wedged them together,” Hofbauer says of the mix, which features hit track Hiccups from the new release alongside something forthcoming from Jorg Kuning and tunes from Klein Zage, Sangre Voss and Wisdom Teeth’s own Facta – plus “a dub from Joe which I felt very privileged to get my mitts on recently”.
“I hope that anyone who listens thinks, ‘Hey that was kinda weird at times, but yeah, I’d be keen to hear something like that in a club’,” adds Hofbauer. Get stuck in.
