Steffie Doms was a DJ long before she was a producer. You can tell: her tracks are almost exclusively streamlined for club play. They also sound just like the kind of records she plays out—old, analogue and a bit dusty. As formulaic as it can be, her flair for hooks makes her best music great (“Yours” is essentially a modern house classic), even if the rest of the equation is left wanting. Doms’ drum programming is typically dead simple, and her tunes keep static, robotically going over the same motifs without much in the way of development or tension. These are chronic issues that come to the fore on Power Of Anonymity, a record that highlights its author’s limitations as much as it does her gifts.

Doms says she tried to make her second album a more personal one, incorporating ideas from the electro and IDM she loves and often plays (her recent Essential Mix is full of it). It’s an appealing thought, but also an exaggeration—these influences rarely surface in any identifiable way. Only “Bang For Your Buck,” with its flattened snares, nervy chord progression and little curls of synth (right out of the Drexciya playbook), has an electro edge. The rest of Power Of Anonymity has the same faded-photograph ambience that defined Yours & Mine. It makes the tasteful reverb on “Everyday Objects” all the more appealing, and gives the slow-burning title track a beautiful melancholy shared by another Steffi career highlight, “Sadness.”

But retro analogue loveliness is all you get on Power Of Anonymity—the album stubbornly refuses to step outside its comfort zone. “Bag Of Crystals” might be an attempt at a banging techno centrepiece, but its chimes and crashes feel muted and distant. “Selfhood,” meanwhile, is just Doms is twiddling her thumbs, yet another track made from gentle chord progressions and draping disco strings. The problem comes down to songwriting: these tunes are ultra-gridded to the point where it feels like nothing happens over the course of six minutes, even if those six minutes are made up of inviting, sit-by-the-fire deep house and techno.

The Virginia and Dexter collab “Treasure Seeking” is the LP’s sterling exception. A goofy vocal track, it has a certain hustle the rest of the album, groomed and careful as it is, seems uninterested in. Instead, Power Of Anonymity merely repeats the ideas first laid out on Yours & Mine, sometimes improved yet other times untouched. Doms has always been a brave and adventurous DJ, capable of telling personal stories just by stringing a few records together, but she’s got a ways to go before her own productions catch up. Power Of Anonymity is only a one-note look at what makes Steffi such a well-loved artist.

Esteemed selector, producer and Panorama Bar resident Steffi presents the fifth mix CD in the series, showcasing the variety and depth of sound to be found during her sets at the club. In ‘Panorama Bar 05′ we find a mature and confident Steffi channeling her years of experience as a record collector, DJ and beat-maker into 80 seamless minutes. Reflecting all the angles of her classically inspired, raw and profoundly warm sound, we are guided through a rather grand lesson in House music.

Opening with the gliding tones and field recordings of Palisade’s ’18:30’ – a Redshape-produced space-out cut, Steffi initially expresses her love of earthy, organic and submerged club tracks, with Big Strick’s ‘Hayday’ transmitted direct from Detroit (an exclusive on the 12” sampler), and the classic depths of Chris Mitchell’s ‘Lonely Nights’. Another brand new track recruited by Steffi for the mix, the technoid-Chicago sound of Fred P stands out in the beautifully contemporary ‘Project 05’ – segueing perfectly with Naoki Shinohara’s suitably titled ‘Timeless’. Always leadings us on a surprising journey through contrasting styles, Steffi lights up the mid-section of the mix with pure and positive energy. Juju & Jordash supply their bubbling, ecstatic ‘A Stab In The Dark’ – another Ostgut Ton exclusive, while congas and gorgeously loose and dusty vibes roll up with ‘Reality’ from John Barera & Will Martin. This energy keeps on flowing as Steffi brings in a cut from the inimitable Sex Tags crew – courtesy of DJ Fett Burger – while Juergen Junker’s ‘Post Reunion’ should satisfy any remaining raw-cut-up-disco needs! Steffi includes her pumping and acidic ‘DB011’ – one of three exclusives on the mix coming out as a 12″ on her ‘Dolly’ label, alongside with Dexter’s classy ‘Jawada’ and John Barera & Will Martin’s contribution. As the intensity grows in the final half-hour, it’s then left to a soaring techno display from Obsolete Music Technology to bring things right up to date, and finally Trevino’s ‘Juan Two Five’ closes the mix, its undulating machine funk easing us down, feeling complete.

Steffi shows off her talents here with a captivating and classy mix of underground House and Techno. All the tracks she included, and the producers she invited to contribute, help to define part of her identity – much like the culture of DJing with records, that she brings to clubs with love, intensity and passion.
