summer killer tune! big with tiefschwarz, shir khan, matt walsh, turmspringer. as a record label klasse recordings acknowledge and develop the ideas between racing, electronic music and the man vs machine relationship. the concept of artist and founder luca lozano and agent daniel zedelmair, klasse holds up the classic spoked wheel design of a racing bike as a symbol of strength and unity which contrasts with the disposable doses of instantaneous gratification found on electronic music blogs and in so many discotheques that they have encountered on their travels. located within, but not constricted by, the genres of modern house and techno, klasse aims to evoke the depth and narrative of themes such as travel, movement and repetition, fusing the rich sounds of traditional wind and string instruments with the accuracy of synthesisers and drum machines.

possibly the biggest release on off in 2011 so far! off 26 introduces two new talents to the label: berlin-based friends daniel dexter and nhan solo. they deliver >our thang<, a dead-funky discofied summer tune, based on samples which all lovers of 90ies hiphop will dearly remember. on the flip side, labelowner andre crom & martin dawson deliver a deeper, more linear interpretation, based around a mighty bassline and an epic slowdown in the main break. second remix comes from luca lozano & sacha robotti, who score with a raw and toolish groove, adding further elements of the sampled song and additional sweet vocals.
