die ursprŸnglich aus sibirien stammende produzentin, sŠngerin und djane zŠhlt zu den umtriebigsten und interessantesten kŸnstlerinnen im elektronischen bereich. mit ihrem fesselnden mix aus house, techno und acid spielt nina kraviz mittlerweile in den angesagtesten clubs weltweit. nach ihrem mix fŸr die renommierte dj-kicks serie aus dem letzten jahr veršffentlicht sie nun einen exklusiven mix fŸr die fabric-serie. nina kravitz mixt sich gekonnt durch rare und unveršffentlichte tracks von u.a. bedouin ascent, frak, dj slip, woody mcbride, i-f, thomas p heckmann, aphex twin, air liquide und natŸrlich auch eigenem material.

auf ulrich schnauss 5tem studio-album -no further ahead than today- regieren einmal mehr die elektronisch eingespielten ambient-pop-hymnen, die lŠngst zu seinem markenzeichen geworden sind. diese sollten fans von kŸnstlern wie jon hopkins und brian eno interessieren. schnauss selbst ist umtriebig - seit 2014 ist er keyboarder bei tangerine dream, produziert unter eigenem namen remixes fŸr pop-kŸnstler wie depeche mode, pet shop boys, todd terje und bryan ferry und hat gerade fŸr die decca-compilation re:works bachs -prelude in c- neu in szene gesetzt. -no further ahead than today- ist klar mehr pop als ambient. starke melodien stehen im vordergrund, die stŸcke sind mit rhythmen unterlegt, zuweilen gar mit gesang begleitet, eine hymnische note ist immer prŠsent. spŠtestens seit seinen beiden solo-alben, die bei dem deutschen label city center offices erschienen, gilt schnauss als ein elektroniker, der manche tugenden des britischen indie-shoegaze-sounds auf seine klangvorstellungen ŸbertrŠgt.

on limited edition compact disc. no., founded by atomtm & material object in 2014, celebrate their second birthday in style with no. ii, a collage, a readymade, an assemblage, a synthesis, in short: a spectrum of elements refracted through the prism of the labels output between the 1st of may 2015 to the 1st of may 2016. you might call such a spectrum a mix, and thats up to you. over the 79 minutes the mix traverses a wild landscape of material. a dose here from the lysergic adventures in the concrete jungle of g@ng5ta, a stroll there over the bubbly terrain of material object+ishqs invisble light, the air punctuated by the haunted soundscapes of former severed head: garry bradburys yakovlevian torque. slather on top of that a caustic beat from anamorph specimens and then undergrid it all with the morbidly obese frequencies of atomtms texturen series and you have yourself some kind of interdimensional feast. so, welcome to our second birthday party.
