with davidchristoph we have a fresh, fulminant dj battle, which stands for extravagant work behind the decks! feasting up to the point of ecstasy, dancing in great profusion and music that forces you to move your body, are just 3 maxims they act on.

>3.652 tage< : the track a day originated after my 10-year-old djs jubilee. from the mood of the eve, there originated thus the acoustics-percussion beat with emitter surfaces. >zeitfenster< : this track with miguel aka electric gloss, to a friend from portugal produced. he has visited me for two days in frankfurt, meanwhile we were diligent in the studio. the sound capes remind me of a typical summer thunderstorm. >eureka< : this number has something incredible for me. a kind of space-electro with quite futuristic melody. if somewhat is inspired by the film barbarella. unambiguously one of my favourites on the album.

>mr nice< features snippets of howard marks which are interlaced with clattering breakbeats and booming sub bass. while we are sure howard would approve of a late night after party session, for many this will be the soundtrack to what happens before they leave the club! label boss steppa and his co-producer kitcha provide an excellent aa side which harks back to the classic formation records era. splicing in cheeky samples lifted from anthems of old and twisting them into something brand new, this one is just as fearsome on the dancefloor.

new chain is the debut long-player from new york s small black. richly coloured and thickly layered, it is an absorbing, eclectic and obsessive body of work. the brooklyn group have succeeded in melting together locked and popped drum-shudder, gauzy spirographic synths and subtly contagious, half-remembered melody into ebullient bursts of evocative, subliminal and thoroughly modern pop. the songs are equally informed by the rhythmic bounce and stylistic swagger of more left-leaning contemporary radio rap and r n b as it is the submerged kaleidoscopic swirl of the early 4ad dream factory.
digital download-code included.

jatoma are all about the unknown and though they are new amongst us they remain cloaked in paradoxes and already questioned by many. some think that one of the members is a famed producer amongst 2 genius teenagers.
others project they are a side act for a band held in the highest regard. some will speculate they are just trying to get more attention by remaining unknown. the facts remain blurry and ambiguous but there remains an clear authenticity surrounding these factors - jatoma are clearly one of 2010s most inventive new acts our ears have had the pleasure to hear and its with our excitement we welcome them to kompakt. so enter their self-titled debut full length - >jatoma<.

catcalling from the depths of a city seen from the outside as crumbling, sonic grooves carve a path to the soulful detroit duo known simply as the oliverwho factory. first noticed across the primitive music sharing plateaus of a decade past, the oliverwho factory quickly gained notoriety overseas with a glasgow based distribution, and a keen sense of product importance, releasing rich, mood-driven tracks on vinyl, inspired by and resonating the roots of rock, pop, jazz, and r&b. earth near-silently stumbles with the distinct yet mysterious, funk laden blend of house and techno that oliverwho and shonie c. so naturally provide. like stepping into dreamscapes of unknown desire, the obscure flavor of owf s tunes keeps unconventional beauty and otherworldly adventure at the forefront of this duo s detroit-based soundboard.

musik gewinnt freunde begrüßt mit der #012 einen neuen künstler auf seinem liebevoll geführten label. adriano filippucci gilt derzeit zwar als geheimtipp ist aber alles andere als ein neuling. mit einem background als pianospieler und jazzmusiker sowie fundierten kompositionskenntnissen ist der junge italiener mehr als vielversprechend. seine city lights ep bestätigt die vorfreude: deep und warm, mit rhythmen die aus der hüfte kommen, hat er hier ein par tranks abgeliefert, deren drive einen einfach nicht loslassen.

der zweite part des jonzon comebacks in 2010 und dafür einfach hier nicht mehr und nicht weniger als die blanke, ungenierte dokumentation des einschlägigen berlin techno, wie man ihn bereits mitte der 90-er jahre nicht besser hätte erhalten können. die tracks wie >make up< und >see the light< erreichen dabei auf diesem streng auf 300 copies limitierten vinyl mühelos den reifegrad eines abgeklärten alterswerks, in dem die kühle technoide klangarchitektur mit vielen impressionistischen soundskizzen angereichert wird und die am ende dennoch aus dem off jede menge schwingungen und techno-funk auf den boden bringt, der anschaulich, als ganz grosser wurf aus dem nowhere auf einmal wieder ganz dicke prognosen für die zukunft von jonzon, und nicht nur diesem, verspricht. man darf hier jetzt schon gespannt sein, wie die jonzon-story weitergeht. the only way is up!
