Meander. Wander. Such are the starry eyed adjectives that Berlin’s David Koch, alias DeWalta, has chosen to ascribe to his label and debut album respectively. Both terms conjure images of the solitary medieval bard, enthralling townsfolk with rapturous music, tales of derring-do, and breaking the heart of a young damsel or two before heading on his merry way with a few new tales to tell. Our young David’s wandering ways have taken him from conservatory jazz studies at the Hans Eissler Music College to the beating heart of Berlin’s underground techno and house scene in only a few short years. And as anyone who has had the privilege of being on the dance floor during one of his smooth and sexy DJ sets can attest, hearts have most definitely been broken. Having received consistent praise from tastemakers both at home and abroad for his jazz infused single productions over the last several years, he now brings the full breadth of his experiences to bear on this his first long player for Haunt Music.
