Conrad Taylor’s “DIE TIEFE” is here—a hard-hitting techno banger with trance vibes that’s all about his German roots. This German-American dual citizen’s dropping a German-language stomper that’s set to light up dancefloors, fresh off his headline national tour and a BBC Radio One feature. Teaming up with NYC legend Flash Gea—who’s got a knack for viral techno hits—this one’s poised to blow up. Let’s get into why “DIE TIEFE” is about to be your new obsession!
The Sound and the Story
“DIE TIEFE”—which means “the depths” in German—is Conrad Taylor channeling his heritage into a techno beast. Picture this: a relentless, pounding beat that’s pure hard techno, layered with melodic trance flourishes that pull you in deep. It’s got that gritty, industrial edge—think Berlin’s underground bunkers—mixed with hypnotic synths that nod to Germany’s electronic legacy. The German vocals add this raw, cultural kick, tying it to the history of techno as a tool of resistance and unity during the Cold War. It’s dark, it’s driving, and it’s got that euphoric lift that makes you wanna lose yourself on the floor—perfect for late-night raves or a solo vibe sesh.
Conrad’s story is as dope as his sound. Born and raised in NYC, he’s a dual German-American citizen with a mom who immigrated from Germany. Growing up, he’d visit his Oma und Opa, soaking in German culture—and it stuck. Fluent in German, he’s always been inspired by the country’s electronic scene, from Kraftwerk to Berlin’s techno revolution. After a wild ride in politics—where he was one of the youngest elected officials in U.S. history—he ditched campaigns for beats, racking up nearly 3 million streams and support from Ibiza to London’s Drumsheds. With “DIE TIEFE,” dropping via Empire after collabs with Flash Gea, he’s honoring that legacy while pushing his genre-fluid style—think house, techno, and D&B vibes all in one.
Techno’s alive and kicking in 2025—hard techno and trance are trending big, from warehouse parties to festival stages—and “DIE TIEFE” fits right in. With Flash Gea’s viral magic and Conrad’s live energy (he’s played with The Chainsmokers, Alesso, and even VP Kamala Harris!), this track’s got global legs. Give it a spin below—the artwork’s got that sleek, shadowy Berlin vibe that’s pure fire.
