Ascension on Wax

Ascension on Wax is a Berlin-based House Music label focused on collaborating with visual artists and Dance Music producers. Working with contemporary producers who are influenced by the jazzy and soulful sound that flourished in the 90s US east coast scene, AoW’s music is true to the roots of House Music. Organised by two best friends, the foundations of AoW were the Berlin Ascension Parties starting in 2019, adding more of a Jazz and Soul flavour to Techno-Heavy Berlin. AoW collaborates with contemporary visual artists and dance music producers to provide certified limited vinyl pressings with beautiful artworks alongside the labels standard DJ Releases. The name Ascension is a homage to John Coltrane’s ground-breaking 1966 Free-Jazz Ascension album. It honours Jazz’s place in the formation of House Music, and the Jazzy Deep House sound.
