Berlin-based artist, DJ, producer and Stil vor Talent co-founder Oliver Koletzki today releases his twelfth studio album, "12" — a deeply considered, emotionally rich long-player that marks the next chapter in a career spanning more than two decades at the forefront of electronic music. The album is out now on Stil vor Talent in digital formats and as a 2x12" gatefold vinyl. Serving as both a milestone and a manifesto, "12" distils Koletzki's evolving sound into its most refined form yet. Across twelve tracks, the album explores atmosphere, restraint and emotional clarity, balancing slow-burning club energy with introspective storytelling. It's a record shaped by experience, patience and an unwavering attention to detail; qualities that have long defined Koletzki's output as both an artist and a label curator.

Oliver Koletzki releases 'Voice or Noise', the final single leading into his upcoming twelfth studio album '12'. Created together with longtime collaborator Frida Darko, the track marks an unexpected turn within the album campaign, stepping beyond the electronic framework of previous singles into more direct hip hop and R&B territory. Built around Frida Darko's expressive vocal performance, 'Voice or Noise' places songwriting and lyrical presence at its center. Stripped-back beats, warm melodic textures and a laid-back groove create the foundation for a track that feels intimate, immediate and refreshingly different within Koletzki's catalogue. Marking a joint debut for the pair in this stylistic direction, 'Voice or Noise' showcases another side of their creative partnership. While previous collaborations leaned into club-focused dynamics, this track shifts the spotlight toward storytelling and vocal character, highlighting Darko's versatility as both a singer and songwriter. As the closing single before the release of 12, 'Voice or Noise' offers a final glimpse into the album's broader artistic scope, a reminder that Koletzki's vision has always been driven as much by curiosity and experimentation as by dancefloor instinct.
