Jacob Dilßner aka Wankelmut is a young
24-year old producer, who relocated to his hometown Berlin 10 months
ago to study philosophy and political science. One night he started
playing around with one of his favorite songs in Ableton Live, cutting,
filtering and adding a simple 4/4 groove until Asaf Avidan & The Mojos’ bitter-sweet folk song “One Day/Reckoning Song“
turned into what has now become one of house music’s biggest European
summer anthems of 2012. The infectious song is as much a party starter,
as well as a welcoming song to relax and roam around with your friends
and loved ones after a long night out.
The song has been topping the single charts in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium and The Netherlands. In Germany “One Day/Reckoning Song“ managed to simultaneously hit the #1 spot in the national charts, the iTunes charts and on Beatport. A history’s first. The while the video accompanying “One Day/Reckoning Song“
has already exceeded 21 million views (watch here), there’s now a “Part 2” video,
which follows the people on their “day after”. Jacob is currently
working on various remixes and his first proper solo-release.
