la fleur is a dj in the ascendant. now a resident dj at watergate in berlin (and with a brand new ep for their label ready to drop - more on that in minute!) she has balanced her craft and her electronic music production with precision and flair: all of this is the result of hard work and a constant stream of quality gigs across the world. for the uninitiated, la fleur took her first forays into the studio in 2008, with her remix of david ekenbaecks nairu on trunkfunk records but it was her solo debut, the flowerhead ep, for her own power plant label, which really rocketed her into charts and record boxes worldwide.

haiku-chanson mit us-akzent fredda erfindet ihr eigenes musikalisches land - wenn ein chanson durch japanische gedichtformen inspiriert und dann mit dem sound der us-w?ste garniert wird, dann entsteht ein neues album von fredda. wenn der klang der worte allein schon musikalische poesie wird und eigentlich keine ?bersetzung braucht, dann ist eine s§ngerin, texterin und komponistin am werk, die frankophonen pop in eine kunstform verwandelt. freddas konsequente weiterentwicklung erweckt ein chanson voller tiefgang und seele zum leben. vorl§ufiger h¸hepunkt: ihr neues album land.

new years deal - die italienische wahlbritin francesca lombardo begann ihre produzenten-karriere 2012 bei crosstown rebels und gründete nach mehreren releases dort anfang 2016 ihr eigenes label echoe, auf dem nun vier brillante -remembrance--remixes von cassy, laura jones, jade und la fleur erscheinen.

norah jones has come full circle with day breaks, her remarkable sixth album which finds her returning to her jazz roots while also proving her to be this era’s quintessential american artist, the purveyor of an unmistakably unique sound that weaves together the threads of several bedrock styles of american music: country, folk, rock, soul, jazz. day breaks is a kindred spirit to come away with me, though it is unquestionably the work of a mature artist who has lived life and grown immensely in her craft. the album features jazz luminaries including shorter, smith, and blade, who played drums on norah’s debut and became the backbone (and backbeat) of the new album.
the vinyl lp comes in a gefold sleeve with download code included.

die letzte fsoj vol. 11 ist schon fünf jahre her, die erste kam 1995 raus. ich habe das gefühl die zeit dreht zurück. ein bischen erinnern mich die tracks - vor allem die langsamen stücke, wie so mancher sound - an die ersten >future sounds of jazz< compilations. ich kann sagen, ich hatte eine gewisse leerstelle von 2007 bis ende 2010, sah weder die notwendigkeit, noch hatte ich lust empfunden, eine neue fsoj zu machen. es gab seit 2007 schon den ein oder anderen tollen track, aber nicht genug, um gleich eine compilation daraus zu zimmern. zugegeben war ich, wie viele andere, mehr dem disco-, edit- und deep house-fieber verfallen. bin ich immer noch, aber die musik fusioniert wieder stärker mit den vibes, die ich für fsoj suchte.
es begann in 2010, festigte sich in 2011, ein déjà-vu ritt mich plötzlich, der viel beschworene zeitgeist wehte wieder. haufenweise gute tracks, interessante projekte, die von der Ästhetik, vom sound und feeling den frühen 90ern, oder meinem gutdünken ihre reminiszenzen aufwiesen. immerhin sind seit der vol. 1 schon zwei generationen nachgewachsen, sagt man doch, daß alle sieben jahre eine neue generation entsteht. ich denke, die jüngeren projekte (z.b.: lo tide aus australien, anchorsong und ragout delapin beides projekte aus japan, scrimshire, letherette, laszlo, sepalcure, eden) die hier vertreten sind, spiegeln das eindrücklich wieder.

rmxs by wolf & lamb, fcl and la fleur .fresh from the summer success of his solo ep hold on, dj nibc returns to close the year with his famed collaborative project alongside jonas rathsman, stuffa. following in the footsteps of their 2008 anthem >pretty girls<, stuffa are primed with proof. an infectious slice of uplifting late-night house with dubby twists, thundering piano chords and soulful vocals, enhanced with a selection of remixes from some of electronic musics elite, and with the striking, windswept vinyl artwork of annika berger. the original mix of >proof< is propelled by a skippy tech-house rhythm, while layers of dub reverb weave over, around and about its distinctive vocal snatch, interplaying with it blurred piano chords.
