copenhagen, the new album from stillhead mixes experimental, cinematic and futuristic dub, glimpses of drum & bass and his trademark deep, expansive, intricate sound. immersive and wide-screen electronica meets ultra-tight percussion with a variety of vocals peppered throughout. alongside a full album of original tracks, there are a host of incredible remixes which bring the sounds of stillhead that little closer to the dance floor. bop, hatti vatti, versa, tonik ensemble, mr. roque, generate, other spectrum and another channel all bring their unique sounds and production genius to the table taking their remixes in a range of new directions. the album is stillheadÕs document of his year spent living in the danish capital.

its not everyday that pianist and composer, francesco tristano, joins forces with one of the belleville three Ñ the godfathers of detroit techno Ñ and yet, anyone whos followed the luxembourg artist will know that expectation is not a currency he deals in.
