over the last couple of years, christopher rau has built a reputation as the finest ear canal masseuse in the contemporary house music scene, catching the attention of fellow hamburger dj koze who has recruited him for this new three-track ep. raus debut full-length asper clouds, released in the fall, was noted for straddling the line between >club< and >headphone< music, earning 4 out of 5 stars from resident advisor along the way, and now, with the how are you ep, he follows up to further explore his sonic approach: an assault of subtlety. >pervading animal< is built upon a solid foundation of familiar rhythm box elements, but like vines and moss, the sedating sounds of strings and keys envelop the empty spaces, showing christopher raus ability to combine the artificial and the organic into something transcendent. then, on the flip side, he lets his weirdness factor shine. at first, >c f r< sounds like by-the-numbers muppet new age, but graduates with distinction as the meowing synth squiggles saunter over the basketball beat. the ep denouements with >how are you today<, marked by a toasty chord progression thats playfully trying to compose itself as the track moves forward, turning science fiction into science fact. you want to believe

third outing from terpsiton imprint, made by dionne aka just von ahlefeld (smallpeople), backed up with a remix by christopher rau (smallville / giegling).

it has been the sweetness and warmth of the city of hamburg, its delightful venues such as the golden pudel club and smallville parties at ego that made him diving into deepest music. after >ne travaillez jamais< became the favorite track of all smallville and dial djs and rau played on one of those magic nights the idea of an album was born. the plan was as simple and lovely as the music on asper clouds is. here comes the sun.

almost one year after the first release derive schallplatten releases the second record. thats quite a long time. but however, haste makes waste and even more when its about some passionate drifters!

support by djinxx, jichael mackson, tobias becker, pelle buys, rulers of the deep, dave mothersole, laurent garnier, leandro gamez, james talk… gedankensport signed a new amazing artist for you. with his sense for minimal techno and house arrangements he bursts every brain, because he will start the real sport of thoughts in your mind. christopher rau, who came in contact with electronic dance music in 2004, produced three poetic minimal housetracks reduced to some kind of essential form of electronic music. a: gribuntal: this track is pure minimalism. based on this monotone organ chord that seems to make you insane during the nearly eleven minutes, there is kind of tropical feeling, too. the easy tribal percussions put this track in warm, windy and relaxed beach surrounding, nobody wants to leave..

christopher just and dax j bring the heat.

for their seventh issue, adams bite have tapped italian dj and producer, christopher ledger. his work has steadily risen to the top over the past five or six years, honing in on a reduced style favoured by intimate dancefloors throughout europe. for his most recent output, ledger draws upon more muscular, more urgent matter altogether. his encyclopedic knowledge of dance musics hidden corners reverberates strongly within these five tracks. find echoes of the fledgling roman rave scene in its heavy drumwork, whilst the trance-infused synths recall the hazy glory days of mid-nineties elba. all touched up and bound together by a thoroughly modern approach to sound design and floor awareness. ledger carries his italian heritage on his sleeve, and although many of the calling cards might appear obscured to the uninitiated, those familiar with his craft will find more to love with every rotation. pass this gate and discover the depth at your own risk.

christopher ledger is back on brouqade with two fresh bombs.

helo. slow down. mind the gap. careful. little steps. everything is fragile. small pieces. tiny elements. some do fit. making parts. add. add. add. layer. build. ninze & okaxy with their first appearance on laut & luise, having constructions in their lightest form. no heavy machinery, no rattling noises. fine and fragile, modest but bold, like silk flying through the air. completed by a percussive interpretation from old friend and companion chris schwarzwalder on the b side aswell as sweet cheeks canson on the digital side. good to have you here, good to have you back.

chris schwarzwalder strikes again for denature records, this time with a 5 tracks ep: catjammer. the track of the same name as well as -slow down- produced with feathered sun lead singer jo.ke have this unique slow and melancholic groove. on the other side setup and the list will take you to darker and hypnotic places. the ep ends with leaves which sounds like an invitation to an endless ballad into the sunset.

christopher ledger presents cl series, new multidisciplinary platform set to examine the simultaneous interaction between music and visual art.

slamming ricardo villalobos remix

fresh from the success of their ‘past / present / future’ release, we march on, with berlin-based italian christopher ledger the man responsible for their label’s 41st release. the ‘percezione and retrospettiva’ ep sees ledger in flying form, as he props up with two dexterous, thoughtfully executed records that speak volume of his ability to craft atmospheric sounds. opening up the release is the sounds of ‘retrospettiva 2’, a future leaning techno jam that again wonderfully fits the brouqade aesthetic. clearly indebted to sci-fi spheres, this one is very much cut from a detroit cloth, with a steely finesse that lurks from the get go. a track that brings the listener on an endless journey, it comes some deep harmonic vibes. all things told, this is an ep of various contrasting sounds, ledger’s debut for brouqade is a stunning example of what can happen when producers think outside the box. the b side consists of ‘percezione attiva’. harmonic, blissful tones abound throughout, made all the more meaningful by a slew of gentle, melancholic piano chords that really pull on the heartstrings. a light and hazy experimental piece, the track forces parallels with other masters of suspense. culminating with a more traditional 4/4 vibe, this unusual turn only enhances the producer’s standing as a man willing to take risks.

nach seinem gefeierten solo-debütalbum je suis le tenebreux veröffentlicht der britische experimentalmusik-komponist und künstler christopher chaplin mit deconstructed ende mai eine limitierte und außergewöhnliche remix ep auf vinyl. darauf zu finden sind vier vielschichtige Überarbeitungen aller albumtracks, u.a. von der kürzlich hochgelobten berliner sound- und media-künstlerin jana irmert, dem grammy-nominierten amerikanischen komponisten tim story, dem in brooklyn, ny beheimateten produzenten und künstler aka tim okeefe und dem multiinstrumentalisten und wiener elektronikmusikproduzenten peter zirbs.

nice price deal !!! titanium is back with a brandnew release! titan103 is a great ep from austrians producer christopher groove who has his first solo release on philipp straubs label titanium. this ep already had a great impact on the market as felix da housecat licenced maximal mnml for his recent global underground compilation milan which was a great success wordwide. maximal mnml is a deep techno tune with soft percussions and a great bassline that makes everybody move. the second track b.o.w. is a real techno bomb with a huge break and succeeded on many dancefloors around the globe, not only due to heavy support from carl cox. to complete the ep philipp straub asked his friend danilo vigorito for a remix and danilo delivered one of his rare and beloved tunes. danilo, who is one of the main protegees of italian techno, formed maximal mnml into a little bit darker structure with a unique atmosphere. all in all a great ep!

salty shores of a deep blue sea, mountain tops with blinding hats and wrapped up greenery in reoccurring patterns. three places, two journeys, heavenly lit in gentle warmth by the feathered sun. a collaboration of impressive beauty and beautiful impressions: acid pauli, christopher schwarzwalder, jo.ke, nu and raz ohara take us, you, me, luise by the hand to paint a picture of shifting shapes and scenerey. two slow paced tracks, one per side, for that extra length and space it deserves.
