Kevin Werdelmann, also known by his stage name Slowtide, is a German songwriter and musician.
Influenced by Vince Clarke and Chris Hülsbeck, Kevin Werdelmann produced his first songs and soundtracks to self-made films on an Amiga 500 homecomputer at an early age. His first step into public took place with the self-released electronic instrumental album London, on which he processed the impressions of his first visit to the british metropolis in 1997. [1] He soon evolved into a multi-instrumentalist and made his first appearance as a singer on the two demo EPs Time Escape (2001) and Things That Fade (2002). [2] The artistname Slowtide was formed and numerous live appearances followed since then, which saw him share the stage with bands like British Sea Power, Gravenhurst, Eskobar, Hjaltalin and Belasco. [3] He also appeared at the renown Reeperbahnfestival in Hamburg in 2007. [4]
His official debut album Origins was released in January 2009 by Marchpane Records and was received positively by the press. [5] [6] It was chosen as the album of the month in issue 01/2009 of Kulturnews magazine. [7]
The selfproduced second album Solaria was released in August 2012 by Timezone Records. [8] The first official music video for the song Aimless [9] was produced the same year and a music video for the song California [10] followed in 2017.
Celebrating its 20th anniversary the instrumental album London from 1997 received a digital re-release on November 3, 2017. [11]
His third album A Gentle Reminder was released in November 2018 by Timezone Records. It contains new studio versions of songs from the demo EPs "Time Escape" and "Things That Fade".
