Wolfgang Gartner - Illmerica



Artist: Wolfgang Gartner
Track: Illmerica
Label: Ultra Records

One comment I read on youtube about Wolgang Gartner is "if Deadmau5 and Daft Punk had a baby, it would be Wolfgang Gartner". Illmerica is one of those feel good, head bouncing, electro house tracks that seems to cross genre lines and may pop up on a commercial in a month or two.

I will give him credit, whereas most DJ's are selling out to the extreme mainstream these days (Deadmau5 on the MTV awards, Tiesto at the Olympics, Oakenfold on the E! channel DJing a sweet 16 party), Wolfgang (aka Joey Youngman) has not. A California native currently residing in Austin, Wolfgang Gartner is his electro/tech-house alter ego when he is not producing deep house tracks under his real name. He first gained notoriety in 2007 when he was featured on Pete Tong's "Essential Selection", and then again last month. Electro-house is everyone's guilty please, and expect to see a lot more of him when his track with Deadmau5 drops.
