A new chapter, a deeper cut—Kick It With You marks a striking evolution in Fritz Kalkbrenner’s sonic journey. Anchored by rolling percussion and a rubbery, low-slung bassline, the track exudes warmth and restraint, weaving in velvety chords and subtle vocal textures that dissolve into the groove. It’s a masterclass in minimal elevation—where less says more, and the euphoria comes not from peaks, but from the pulse. There’s a lived-in feel to the production—fluid, unforced, and unmistakably human. As the rhythm stretches out, it draws you into a meditative state, where time slows and the dancefloor becomes a sanctuary. It’s music for the golden hour of the night: tender yet propulsive, intimate yet expansive.
Fritz Kalkbrenner’s breakthrough came in 2008 with ‘Sky and Sand’, a collaboration with his brother Paul Kalkbrenner, which was featured on seminal film Berlin Calling and quickly became a generational anthem, catapulting the fraternal duo to international acclaim.
Fritz Kalkbrenner seized the baton and ran, continuing to develop the unique strain of emotive electronic music that struck a chord with so many around the world. He’s spent the best part of two decades since, tirelessly carving out a space for his trailblazing strain of emotive electronic music. Fritz Kalkbrenner’s work marries deep emotion with electronic beats, creating a sound that resonates both on the dancefloor and in intimate listening environments. By now, his legacy extends far beyond his own discography. His appetite for creation has remained steadfast. With an impressive lineup of club and festival gigs across Germany and Europe, and a steady stream of chart-topping releases, he continues to push things forward over two decades after his first found fame. With his new single Kick It With You, Fritz Kalkbrenner doesn’t just move bodies—he shifts moods.
