Marlon Hoffstadt's debut album, Planet Love, marks the ninth release on his label since it's launch in 2017. Having established his signature sound over the years, navigating through feelings from house, disco, trance, and Euro-dance, Planet Love showcases these sensibilities in an album format. While he seemed to not take himself too seriously throughout his past releases, naming records Ready For Take Hoff (MIDNIGHT 007EP, 2019) and Der Hoffmaster, Marlon now touches on a topic which, over time became increasingly serious and important to him. Having dealt with anxiety and panic attacks in the past, he developed his very own mantra, which one could already see in projects such as his phone-free Savour The Moment events at Berlin's Renate. "Be kind. Be humble. Take care. Give love. Because only love will set you free". This simple but powerful mantra, which kicks off this album, is not only his own guide through insecurity and fears that he faces in his life as a musician, father, student, and promoter. More than that, it is a reminder that true success is not defined by heavy touring, big money, and fame. Instead, being successful means to be kind and caring towards yourself, your fellow humans, and the environment; most importantly love is stronger than anything else. Features artwork from Hermann Reimer, Ewige Gärtner.
