Album Review: Obsession by Dan Von Schulz vs Eddie Mess
Alright, let’s talk about Obsession, the 2013 House banger from Dan Von Schulz and Eddie Mess. Released under HouseFactorya Records in Europe, this album is a solid nod to electronic music lovers who dig that classic House vibe with a modern twist. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel, but man, does it spin that wheel smoothly.
The standout track here has gotta be “Obsession (Original Mix).” I mean, come on—it grabs you right away with its pulsing beat and hypnotic groove. The bassline? Super chunky, like a warm hug for your ears. What makes it stick in my head though is how simple yet addictive it feels. You don’t need flashy drops or over-the-top synths; just that steady rhythm pulling you deeper into the vibe. Perfect for late-night drives or when you’re cleaning the house and pretending you’re DJing at some underground club.
Another track worth mentioning—though I won’t spoil all the goodies—is one of those hidden gems where they layer these lush pads over crisp percussion. It’s hard to explain, but there’s something dreamy yet raw about it. Feels like you’re floating while staying grounded, ya know? Like sipping espresso on a rainy morning—it’s got depth without being overwhelming.
What strikes me most about Obsession is how unpretentious it is. These guys aren’t trying too hard to impress anyone—they just wanna make you move. And honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you need. No frills, no fuss, just good ol’ House music doing its thing.
Now, here’s the random thought I’ll leave you with: listening to this album kinda feels like finding an old mixtape in your car’s glove compartment years later. You forgot how much you loved it until you hit play again. So yeah, if you’re into House music, do yourself a favor and give Obsession a spin. Who knows? Maybe it’ll become your new go-to playlist filler—or maybe you'll end up naming your cat after one of the tracks. Stranger things have happened!
