mystery, poetry, a play of masks: artistic creation according to john cravache. his collaboration with versatile dates back to the beginning of the millennium. a childhood friend of i:cube, he is 44 years old, lives in a paris suburb, and is not a professional artist. getting involved in writing, he has been boasting his artistic and economic independence and his crafty attitude outside of the industrial system. he gave himself time to invent a personal world, wild and funny, which eventually gave birth to the album -cités nomades-. even though his influences are quite varied and avant-garde (magma, captain beefheart, tom waits), they did not really affect this unclassifiable project. poetry and mystery come before all, because john cravache is appearing masked. john cravache and nicolas chaix (i:cube) have recorded radio creations since the early 90s, in particular for chimère fm in paris, as well as numerous long improvised music sessions. at the approach of the millennium, they embarked on the creation of an album that was not completed until sixteen (!) years later. john is a poet, accomplished pianist, and registered truck driver and nicolas, a self-taught musician, have both made the realisation of -cités nomades- possible. this is not an ironic pop album, this album is simply all you want. listening will do you much good

this single-side vinyl, pressed in 100 cps limited edition, is the happy ending of one of the most played tracks from our friends djs and strictly grooves followers. >sweet pussy pauline< is a classic, an hit that increases over the time, in months of gigs between berlin and reggio emilia, london and garda lake. our job is to make good music and share it with those who appreciate it, but this time we have done much more, because sweet pussy pauline has become a true piece of art in the hands of tatiana festi, who designed directly on record, label to label, 100 unique pieces. tatiana is a very renowed artist, becoming bigger and bigger thanks to her brilliant style, its creatures, its sensual girls, with languid eyes and provoking mouths. and though in acid colors, bright and pop, painted with a meticulous technique and surprising signs of felt pen, all have something of the femme fatale and at the same time, victims of love.

in einer zeit der scheinbar unbegrenzten moeglichkeiten durch neueste produktionstechnik und unzaehlige samples und loops ist es axel ein anliegen, einen schritt zurŸck zu gehen und sich zu limitieren, weg vom stereotypen / cleanen computerproduktionssound hin zum versuch, die musik wieder als versuch, als experiment zu begreifen. er verzichtet daher bei seinem 2. soloalbum auf die allgegenwaertigen bongoloops, ureinwohnergesaenge und whitenoiseatacken, kehrt zurueck zur drummaschine und zur melodie, die sich wie ein roter faden durch axels werk zieht. ob in den anfaengen als vanguard (mit asem shama), seinem kompaktkatalog, dem ersten soloalbum kiss auf karmarouge 2008 oder neuerer veroeffentlichungen auf sportclub, suol, get physical oder ostwind, immer verleihen melodien seinen stuecken eine besondere stimmung, die sie von den ueblichen dj-tools abgrenzen.
