semester musik 003 ist eine release, die uns wirklich stolz macht. wir haben die legende the egyptian lover, der einst das vinyl von detroit nach los angeles brachte, mit chris james, dem nachwuchstalent aus birmingham, an ein gemeinsames mischpult gelassen. die unbeschwertheit des west-coast-undergrounds von 1984 trifft die britische coolness von 2011.

after he caught our attention several times with a string of releases on such labels as quintessentials for example, we are very happy to introduce skipson as a new artist on our label. his influences can be found somewhere between labels like classic or music for freaks for example. these influences combined with a great passion for detroit house from the likes of kdj or andres create the very own skipson sound that we like so much and that always shows his ability to add something unique to his productions.

further to motor city drum ensembles dj kicks compilation, his exclusive single l.o.v.e. has been reworked by the young detroit prodigy kyle hall, the painter and music creator wolfgang voigt and an excellent remix by smallpeople. kyle has been highly influenced and captivated by the underground deep house sound of detroit. inspired by artists such as theo parrish, mike huckaby, rick wade, 3 chairs, kdj and omar s, who believe their music has a certain feeling of the advant garde and liberation from the so-called rules people place upon dance music. kyle took that principle of their music and applied it to music that he was trying to create. wolfgang voigt is known for his numerous, nearly inexhaustible list of one-off projects and aliases. of these, his best known is arguably >gas< a project that saw the marriage of ambient music and 4/4 techno. his remix of motor citys l.o.v.e shows his minimalistic approach to music he has been famed for worldwide. smallpeople are julius steinhoff & just von ahlefeld aka dionne. smallpeople are focused on a wider range of music and can be diverse- between deep house, detroit techno and some chicago flavours but always within the balance of atmospheric warmth and club suitability bringing yet another perfect addition to this remix package. watch out for more big tunes from smallpeople in the near future

comes in clear vinyl. with over 30 releases behind and over a decade of running his own label, jacek sienkiewicz persistently followed his very own path, creating music that very soon began to be impossible to define. friendly, but not fraternizing with everyone and his family, modest, but stubborn only in a positive way, jacek is an individual with clear, personal vision and an unorthodox approach to music - light years away from the hectic, utilitarian ethos of club-derived electronic beats. >on the road ep< is the preliminary 12inch for the homonymus album which is another collaboration with cocoon. the cycle is now completed with one of the most experimental albums to appear on sven väths label to date. this record is not easy and is definitely demanding attention - but its also rewarding like no other. new sounds, voices and brilliantly clever arrangement patterns are revealed with each new listen. its not detroit nor santiago, not sheffield nor berlin, its not even the sound of jaceks home town of warsaw - this is the real music of the spheres.
