DeWalta
There is a joyful exuberance that comes from improvised music, as pure unfiltered creation meets with talent and skill to create accidents and moments freed from the shackles of structure and predictability. That David Koch’s early forays into music were driven by improvisation speaks volumes for the excitement and energy that emanates from him as a producer today.
After finishing his studies at the Hanns Eisler conservatory in Berlin he was drawn into the seductive world of electronic music production. David’s introduction to the world at large, at least within the confines of underground house and techno, came once he adopted the DeWalta alias. At the same time he launched the Meander label with Fabian Geimer and Jens Körmer, providing an ideal platform for his unique slant on production as well as that of a handful of like-minded artists. Whether producing for Meander or Vakant, Kalk Pets or Cynosure, there’s a unifying quality to David’s music.
As a long time Berlin resident it was inevitable that he would cross paths with an artist like Mike Shannon. After they dived into the studio and producing two EPs together, it was a natural progression for David to entrust his debut album to the plucky Canadian, and so Wander was brought to the world via Mike’s Haunt imprint.
