Tobi’s style is derived from his self-concept as a Dj: the hypnotic depth of his sets always contributes to the inner rhythm of the party, a nice and light tension develops, containing its eruptive moments that nevertheless don’t stop the flow. All this creates warmth stemming from house music and nourished by the people in the room. Tobi Neumann doesn’t scream at his crowd. His sets are at the same time history-conscious and abstract in a sensual way, sometimes a melody shines through, knowing all about the fugacity of euphoria but celebrating the moment all the same. His music develops its own soft, dark gravity, balancing on the fine, almost unrecognizable line between House and Techno: sexy and friendly.“ (Thies Mynter about Tobi Neumann)
