always keep moving, never stand still a motto that dapayk & padberg have been following consistently for more than ten years in every respect. for nearly three decades sought-after musician, producer and machine enthusiast niklas worgt has researched diverse club sound effects with countless projects, while singer eva padberg is an internationally renowned high fashion model. since 2003 they have been traveling and performing together as dapayk & padberg. they are passionate sound nomads who capture acoustic impressions of their exciting journey. each album is a sound logbook, which captures memories in the form of beats, tunes and skits. on sink this ship, released a few months ago, the berlin-based duo provided a first glimpse of what you can expect from dapayk & padberg in 2017, with their new album harbour. a harbour, where both stop off for the moment, because their next trip is already planned: after the release of harbour, dapayk & padberg tour europe and row.

josé james is reborn as a powerful voice in contemporary r&b on “love in a time of madness”. even for an artist as creatively restless as james, “love in a time of madness” is something new: an r&b focused foray into moody soul, electronic pop, and trap-addled beats, with the occasional influence of african folk, american gospel and minneapolitan funk. and though james’ voice is no less agile and his ear no less adventurous, this is also his most relatable, daresay sexiest work yet, detailing love’s ups and downs without holding back an ounce of emotion.

we are seemingly headed towards dark and confusing times. the tension inside of the people is rising so instead of putting more gasoline to the fire and fueling the rage i submit to you these sounds of peace. not black music or white music. not borders or class. just music. it’s time to stop labeling music, just as it is time to stop labeling humans as 1st class and 2nd class citizens. if you can ignore my broken voice and if you could only look past my music’s imperfections, you would feel me instead of hearing me and maybe then you could get a small glimpse of the hope that the people feel when they are at my concerts and understand the idea that many great men and women before me like bob marley and john lennon had, that we are all one. the idea that had brought hope and countless others. the hope that makes them scream: peace forever. (charles x)

none of that run-of-the-mill grind, but a heady cocktail, where the best psychedelic elements from 1960’s san francisco meet mississippi blues in a garage, with serious intentions. the phat bass lines and the funky and rich drumming build a house, where fiery and earthy slide will take no prisoners. the cherry on the cake comes by courtesy of honey b’s singing. think of updated memphis minnie and you’re close. she hails from finland.

rückblende. der krieg herrscht in kabul. nach einem bombenanschlag steht fuchy vor dem, was einmal sein zuhause war: alles ist schutt und asche und lähmender schmerz. er sieht sich um. nichts ist ihm geblieben, außer seinem querkopf und seiner superkraft, die musik. damit bewaffnet, bricht er auf in die ferne, fremde, ungewisse welt des westens. dies ist der narrative rahmen für die abenteuer des kleinen, kauzigen kämpfers fuchy. die geschichte eines geflüchteten aus afghanistan, der versucht, sich seine neue umgebung nach seinen eigenen regeln zu erschließen - und dabei instinktiv beats von genuiner schönheit rausballert. fuchy ist gezeichnet, animiert, erfunden, eine art orientalische hip hop-variante von bart simpson. aber gleichzeitig könnte er realer nicht sein. weil er voller widersprüche ist. fuchy, das ist der protagonist von -420- und zugleich das alter ego des in hamburg lebenden musikproduzenten farhad -farhot- samadzada. farhot, vor 34 jahren im afghanischen kabul geboren, hat nicht nur mit deutschen top-künstlern wie max herre, haftbefehl, samy deluxe, chefket, karate andi und xatar gearbeitet. er hat ebenso erfolgreich mit internationalen künstlern wie der soul-sängerin nneka aus nigeria, selah sue, der grime-königin ms dynamite oder den us-amerikanischen hip hop-stars talib kweli und isaiah rashad zusammengearbeitet. seit einiger zeit betreibt farhot zudem sein eigenes label kabul fire.

the vinyl lp includes a download code.
