Hailing from Krefeld, Germany producer (David) Platzdasch makes his Gents & Dandy’s debut with his Two Decades EP. The title, and material reflects on his 20 years of involvement in dance music culture.

Platzdasch’s musical history began in 1996 with the release of the project Silk City on MORE and continued with several solo releases partially under his alias David Martin. Followed by further records in the late 90’s on Honolulu United, Draft Recordings and Blaou Sounds.

In 2000 he founded Soul Glow together with Thomas Staats. Their work culminated in the release of the album We Come Along on Draft Recordings in 2003. After some years of a break in 2014 he got back into the game and just had a track released on a VA 12″ by Masterworks Music.

Slip forward to current day, and Platzdasch presents some of his strongest, and most honest work to date. 4 cuts of deep, sophisticated house music with their foundations set in the past, but their eyes firmly on the future. This EP has been split up in two, and these are the first two tracks.
