How to make the bass and lead sounds from Extrawelt - 'Soopertrack' in DRC
Published on
Arne Schaffhausen and Wayan Raabe first met in the early 90s, born and raised in Hamburg, Germany, they both shared a passion for DJing and electronic music and both frequented record stores and parties, which brought them together. After some time together the natural progression was to want to make their own mark on the scene and start producing their own music, armed with a sampler and computer they set to work.
Their big break happened in 2005 when 6 months after sending a demo to James Holden’s Border Community record label, James wrote back, eager to sign the track ‘Soopertrack’. The duo saw this as an opportunity to define a new period of their creative partnership by adopting a new artist name ‘Extrawelt’. Extrawelt’s Soopertrack was indeed a great signing for Border Community, a seamingly perfect fit for the track’s haunting sound and atmospheric production.
Extrawelt are now also a fully fledged live act too, taking to the stage with dual laptops and an array of hardware like a Roland SH-101 and Elektron Machine Drum feeding a 24 channel mixer full of moods and emotion, delivering maximum movement of dance floors.
