Mille & Mr Hirsch - Change

Review by John Brahy

Album Review: Change by Mille & Mr Hirsch Man, if you’re into those late-night vibes where the world feels like it’s spinning just for you, Change by Mille & Mr Hirsch is gonna hit different. Released back in 2012 on Apollo Krieg—a label that doesn’t mess around—this German duo cooked up something special with their mix of Deep House, Downtempo, and even a sprinkle of Disco. It’s not perfect, but damn, does it stick to your soul. Let me tell ya about two tracks that really got under my skin. First off, there’s “Change (Rainy Woods Mix).” Oh wow, this one feels like walking through an empty park at dusk, rain softly tapping on your jacket while some old memory plays on loop in your head. The synths are warm but kinda distant, like they’re whispering secrets you can almost understand. And the beat? It’s slow enough to let you breathe but steady enough to keep you moving forward. Honestly, I played this track after a rough day once, and it felt like the music was hugging me. Weird to say, but yeah, that’s how it goes sometimes. Then there’s “Change (Original 12" Version),” which flips the mood completely. This one’s more upfront, punchier, like someone nudging you to get out of your own head and onto the dancefloor. There’s this bassline that sneaks up on you—it’s smooth as hell but packs a punch when you least expect it. Every time I hear it, I picture neon lights reflecting off wet pavement, maybe somewhere in Berlin. It’s got that raw energy that makes you wanna move, even if it’s just tapping your foot in your kitchen at 3 AM. What gets me about this album is how personal it feels. You can tell Mille & Mr Hirsch poured themselves into these tracks—they wrote ‘em, produced ‘em, lived ‘em. It’s not overly polished or trying too hard to impress; it’s just honest. Like, these guys aren’t reinventing the wheel here, but who cares? Sometimes all you need is a vibe that speaks to you without shouting. Here’s the thing though—listening to Change made me realize how much music shapes our moods. One minute you’re stuck in your thoughts, the next you’re vibing so hard you forget what you were stressing about. That’s the magic of albums like this. They don’t demand your attention; they earn it quietly, track by track. Oh, and random thought: If this album had a smell, I reckon it’d be coffee and cigarette smoke mixed with fresh rain. Yeah, weird flex, but I stand by it.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The album *Change* by Mille & Mr Hirsch is a hidden gem in the electronic music scene. Released in 2012 under the German label Apollo Krieg, it blends Deep House, Downtempo, and Disco vibes. What’s unique is that the duo not only produced the album but also wrote every track themselves. It includes two versions of the titular track "Change"—the dreamy "Rainy Woods Mix" and the classic "Original 12" Version." It’s the kind of music that feels like a warm hug on a rainy day.
