- The Panorama Bar resident's next full-length will come out through Ostgut Ton in November.
Steffi will release an album called Power Of Anonymity via Ostgut Ton on November 10th.
It'll be Steffie Doms' second album, following 2011's Yours & Mine. The Dutch DJ and producer also mixed Panorama Bar 05 last year.
"I wanted to start working on my new album without any personal or external expectations and I was seeking an emancipated, unshackled approach in the album's construction," Doms says. "I intended to include electro and IDM elements as these are my roots: it's the music that I first started DJing. After almost 20 years I got the feeling that I've come full circle, so I wanted to make an album that I, as a DJ, would like to carry in my record bag."
She adds: "My first LP is very conceptual, it has a certain vibe that not only fits the club but also works on a stereo or in the car. Power Of Anonymity is much more about how I see the dance floor these days, and my aim was to take that vision into the studio. I asked myself what would happen if I could produce day after day without DJ gigs and travel interrupting my flow.
"These long stints in the studio allowed me to divide my time into three single blocks: initially I would only do jams and make sketches, followed by a phase for arranging and editing all recordings, and then a mixdown period for the album. Concentrating on creating Power Of Anonymity has inspired me to carry on tapping deeper into my creative vein. I'm looking forward to the next time when I can step into the studio. Being focused is the key."
Power Of Anonymity comprises nine solo cuts on one collaborative effort, "Treasure Seeking," which features Dexter and Virginia. The album will come out on double-vinyl, CD and digital formats.
