The whole wide world of electronic music wasn’t offered in the clubs of West Berlin” he says. Van Dyk dove into music stores buying the records that had introduced him to music and began making mix tapes for himself and friends. ne of these mixes was passed on to a promoter who being impressed by the unique variety of the mix offered van Dyk his first opportunity to DJ.

n 2007’s “The Magic Position” he finally shed the last recognizable vestiges of his morose persona producing an album of dizzyingly cheerful electro-pop that was as refreshing as it was novel. Two years later Wolf has returned with “The Bachelor” an album that on the surface appears to represent a synthesis of his previous musical personas. Incorporating elements of chamber-pop industrial music electro and indie-rock and drawing from an equally varied emotional and thematic palette “The Bachelor” should feel like a summation of Wolf’s career up to this point.

Take opening number and single “Hard Times” as an example.
