Oliver Schories, the German DJ, producer, and label head with a firm grip on electronic music, delivers his take on Pinwheel Valley‘s ‘Your Superman’ today via Hot Soap Records. Schories broke through early with his 2012 debut Herzensangelegenheit on Parquet Recordings, building over the years to more than 140 million Spotify streams and steady coverage from outlets like Mixmag, Magnetic Magazine, YourEDM and Decoded Magazine. Key albums such as Exit (2013) and Blitzbahn (2018) landed on Stil vor Talent and Get Physical, while heavy touring in 2019 and EPs like Maia pushed streams past 4.5 million. Through his own labels SOSO and Pracht, he’s platformed names including Deetron and Rodriguez Jr., and recent LP’s Paradigm (2020) and Paradigm Remixes (2021), plus the Jan Blomqvist team-up Packard, kept the momentum strong.
Pinwheel Valley, centered on Jordanian-Canadian multi-instrumentalist Qais Khoury, pulls together indie soul threads, softer alt-rock edges, and folktronica layers, echoing touches from Jeff Buckley, Bon Iver and Radiohead. The project has crossed 2.6 million streams total, with placements in Wonderland Magazine, CLASH Magazine, METAL Magazine and more, plus spins on BBC Radio London, BBC Radio Sheffield, RTÉ 2FM, and NPR Music. ‘Your Superman’ entered the US iTunes Alternative Chart at No. 13, and videos for tracks like ‘Willow’ and ‘Abduction’ took Best Music Video prizes at festivals including New York Film Awards, Vegas Movie Awards, and Swedish International Film Festival.
The original stands as open indie rock, Qais Khoury‘s vocals carrying a quiet pull over wide, cold-season instrumentation. Oliver Schories shifts it into melodic house territory, adding steady propulsion and warmth while holding onto the vocal lift and core feeling, likely clicking with listeners tuned to Elderbrook, Ben Böhmer, and Eli & Fur.
Oliver Schories told us: “The emotional vocals instantly inspired me to create a club-oriented version that stays true to the essence of the original. I aimed for a warm, driving atmosphere where listeners can both lose and find themselves.”
