welcome back to the movielike resonating sound world of the 23s. already in 2008 the mysterious one-man band proofed with the album ÒboliviaÓ that they are trying to do another kind of music Ð something that isnÕt entertainment, something that isnÕt show, something that goes gently straight to your soul. now the producer from nord-rhine-westphalia did it again and tuned in the longplayer ÒflamingoÓ. anew he delivers a special kind of cinematic journey music that grooves opposite to his other, more rhythm based hypnotic dance productions. also as the 23s he produces pattern-based music, but it pursues a different intention: each listener should dive into a hallucinatory world of seen and unseen films that his inner eye creates unprejudiced. all ten tracks are romantic smooth operators. they put themselves in service of an artistic vision, in which the listener should get lost in music. the album can be seen as a love-letter to the movie scores of the french 70s cinema or the impressionistic sound arrangements you can hear in the early cinema of peter greenaway. with double bass heat, discreet piano melodies, levitating guitar chords, some gentle horns here and there and beats that recollect the warm jazz influenced soul of oldschool hip-hop the 23s generate a sublime get-down-deep instrumental journey. you can listen to it attentive. or you can just play it in the back while doing whatever you like to do. it is recommended to play ÒflamingoÓ in a decent amount of volume as all loungey tracks begin to live bigger and brighter with sound intensity. if you play it flashy you will experience an atmospheric sometimes light-flooded, sometimes foggy 40-minute electronic journey that offers open-minded souls to fill the room between the notes with their very own milky fancy. soon the album will be accompanied by a bunch of remixes tuned in and twisted by producers like giegling and white artists edward, christian s of the c—meme tribe, canadian producer the mole and the german post rock and electronic music band to rococo rot.

cocoon recordings presents a new mix-compilation and it is number 49!!! more than that it is the 10th edition of the label-inhouse-compilation-series mixed by chris tietjen and last but not least it will be the final chapter of this ten years lasting journey.

jura, the sophomore full-length from the swiss duo larytta, is a galvanizing synthesis of essential grooves and effervescent melodies. it took years to finish the record! christian pahud and guy meldem spent this time carefully calibrating their songwriting to achieve what could be called the golden mean, i.e. the perfect balance between a radio friendly sound and club functionality. the result is a collection of songs that are instantly accessible, yet wholly unpredictable. they feel familiar because they were crafted by seasoned musicians who, over the years, have mastered the science of fundamental swing and melody.

limited nice price action !! dj hell steht nicht nur fŸr eine bestimmte art musik, sondern fŸr einen ganzen lifestyle, eine eigene €sthetik Ð und sein neuer mix, body language vol. 9 ist vielleicht die platte, die das facettenreiche gesamtkunstwerk hell am ehesten zu bannen vermag.

walking through the skyÉfive years ago christian naujoks, peter m. kersten and richard von der schulenburg started a series of spontaneous recording sessions without any intention or idea. the only thing what held the group together were the immediate results hitting the three musicians straight inside their hearts. jazz as a metaphor of instrumental conversation, improvisation in the most dillettant way, science as a matter of exploring the opposite sound of what instruments were built to, these might be parts of a concept where there was none.

mit das beste was es an slo-motion house gibt, inklusive dem ultra raren, gesuchten maurice fulton remix fŸr alice smith love endeavour, hier auf 2-lp und erstmals auf cd. compiled by rainer trueby.

this is armada lounge volume 7. forty tunes of staggering beauty and significant musical skill, at times poetic, and at times as careless as an island breeze packed with exclusive tunes, there are acoustic versions of classic records, like marco v & christian burns --frozen- and the wistful live performance of cosmic gate ft. emma hewitt - -be your sound-. dutch producer rodg returns once more with his rendition of lost at sea, and conjure one graces not one but four songs on the album. the second set features heavyweights like paul van dyk, andy moor, gabriel & dresden, chicane, and several tunes from lustral. classic tunes from highly respected artists and fresh recreations of the year s biggest records can all be found here. clearly a labor of love, -armada lounge vol. 7- will surely go down as one of the greatest lounge compilations of our time. this record proves that musicality and vision are still very much alive in 2014, and it reminds us all that the pinnacle of electronic music has still yet to be reached.

ein take, ein track. so schwingt im vocalpart des songs doorframe noch der raumklang der session mit und ueberzieht den sound mit einer sproeden, verwaschenen note. auch das vocal von holiday ist en passant entstanden, aufgenommen wurde es mit dem mikrophon einer spielekonsole, war halt grad nichts anderes da und das ergebnis gefiel den jungs von colo und ki records so gut, dass der track vorab als 7inch veršffentlicht wurde, remix von christian loeffler inklusive.

but that the cocoon compilation l is all about love, is beyond debate: the love for electronic dance music, for its complexity and its diversity, the love for this global musical language and last not least the enthusiasm for the well-known and the still non-famous protagonists of this tonal romance that faithfully accompanies us through night and day for more than 30 years now. and thats why l begins with a proper love song: for equilibrio, the berlin residents tale of us.

berlin-based djs and composers ricardo villalobos and max loderbauer - two of the best-known names in contemporary electronica - share their admiration for music on ecm in a unique double-album of specially-created >sound-structures<. their project >re: ecm< will bring the labels music to a new listenership. it is certain to be one of the most talked-about albums of the season. using original ecm recordings as a starting point, villalobos and loderbauer create new music that bridges several worlds, including ecms world of space-conscious improvisation and composition and the worlds of ambient electronics and minimal techno. source materials on >re: ecmÓ include recordings of christian wallumr¿d, alexander knaifel, louis sclavis, john abercrombie, bennie maupin, arvo pŠrt, wolfert brederode, paul giger and more - looped, sampled, remixed and reworked in evocative new treatments. pleased with the duos creative response to his productions manfred eicher gave them carte blanche to carry on experimenting with the ecm titles of their choice. eicher subsequently supervised the mastering of >re: ecm< in munich, completing a unique sonic experience.

after two re-releases of conrad schnitzler classics, (zug & ballet statique) now m=minimal releases a completely new work from the pioneer of electronic music. conrad schnitzler is a sound explorer. for many years, he has been on expeditions, journeys through his collection of electronic synthesizers almost every day. sounds he liked has been conserved on tape and stored in his sound library. the result is a huge library of audio files, he calls them >solen<. >borngrŠber & struever< have got the chance to examine that library and started to con-struct new pieces out of the hidden gems. these are not remixes but new compositions. none of the sound combinations were thought or heard before. the 8 tracks form an album independent of any trend and therefore it becomes a real acoustic environment for everyone. the album was produced at studio.wannsee. to give the album more authenticity, the complete audio processing was done using analog equipment. they not only used many classics among the finest synthesizers and outboard equipment, but also custom built tube gear. the icing on the cake are the tubes used from the 60s, which bought christian borngrŠber on a trip through the atacama desert in a small radio repair business in the city of calama. thanks to the desert climate even the packaging of the tubes looked as new

the cocoon compilation k, being the longplay flagship in the cocoon catalogue, adequately starts the second decade of the label with a musical imperative. but dont worry: even if the letter k has sometimes been misused as an indicator for the degree of hardness of some sonic noise in the past of the tech-house scene, >k< is definitely the deepest survey of contemporary electronic dance music that has ever seen the light of day on cocoon recordings

have you ever been >motorcitysouled<? matthias vogt and christian >c-rock< rindermann form the deephouse syndicate motorcitysoul. after their debut (did you expect it? / infracom 2004), their mix-cd (back up / infracom 2007), and their last studio album (technique / simple 2008) the two djs and producers present their first selection of remixes that have been released between 2004 and 2010. the >remix< is one of their favourite dishes so its no wonder that more than 30 artists or labels have asked for a motorcitysoul remix treatment since the duo joined forces in 2004. all of their remixes have been regarded as high quality by the media and djs worldwide. so far artists like chez damier, ian pooley, abdullah ibrahim, brett johnson, solomun & stimming, and johannes heil have ordered the extra motorcitysoul polish. motorcitysoul remixes have found their way to labels like cocoon, dessous, freerange, liebedetail and junior boys own/defected. creating a remix is a versatile production practice built around various philosophies - what is the remix meant for? how should it sound? should it be an addition for the club heads or a musical adventure that takes the listener on a journey? every motorcitysoul remix has its own vibe and is meant to respect the idea behind the original track. motorcitysoul merge their trademark sounds and styles with the original track. vogt and rindermann communicate in a musical way with the original artist.

welche musik begleitet dich bei den schoensten augenblicken und laesst dich von filmreifen sonnenuntergaengen an schneewei§en straenden traeumen? die antwort: early morning breaks. die chillout, lounge und deep house mix show beim sender planet more music radio hat laengst kultcharakter, die sessions von djs wie chris coco, dj jondal, dj mark, sinan mercenk, blank and jones und jan lang (fil-a-fil) werden nicht nur gern zum -runterkommen- nach dem clubbesuch gehoert, sondern auch zum -weekend closing- am sonntag abend. kein wunder, dass die cd-compilation zur sendung seit einem jahr ohne ermuedungserscheinungen auch bundesweit und sogar international in tausenden cd playern und ipods laeuft. auch early morning breaks vol 02 schickt sich an, so ein dauerbrenner zu werden. die besten chill-beats, beachhouse-tracks und lounge-grooves aus der show sowie mehrere exklusive und bisher unveroeffentlichte neu-entdeckungen wurden von dj mark (planet more music radio) und peacelounge-labelchef christian arndt zusammengestellt und sorgen in einem sommerlich-flauschigen mix fuer den richtigen sound zu jeder stimmung. ibiza resident chris coco steuert mit -my beach house- seinen traum von sonne, meer und strand bei und laesst den sommer im zeitraffer vorbeifliegen. ungewohnt ruhige klaenge liefert eddie thoneick, deutschlands house export nummer eins diesmal ab: sein -love under pressure- gibt es im wunderbar entspannten acoustic mix. laessige bossa-klaenge duerfen natuerlich auch nicht fehlen.
