dicke dj mixe hat die green & blue 2011 zu bieten etwas dubbig von raresh und etwas housig von sascha dive

mit traumwandlerischer sicherheit schlŠgt lawrence einen bogen Ÿber 16 jahre gelebter clubgeschichte, ohne dabei das akustische hier und jetzt aus dem auge zu verlieren oder auch nur eine spur in anachronistischer nostalgieseligkeit zu verfallen. stattdessen gehen unter seinen sensiblen hŠnden meilensteine des minimierten deep house wie >forever monna< von chez damier, ron trent und stacey pullen (1995) oder der 99er clubhit >overcome< von thomas melchior/baby ford mit kontemporŠren intensiven detroit-techno-hommagen wie smallpeople & raus >life aquatic<, delano smiths >my life< oder pigons traumhafter >koto<-dubtech-romanze von der 10 jahre dial-compilation auf wunderbare weise zusammen. au§erdem mit dabei sind so bekannte namen wie aril brikha, isolŽe, das ifach collective und robert hood, bevor roman flŸgels auf duran durans >save a prayer< basierendes meisterwerk >brian le bon< und das kristalline >oi< von plaids klassikeralbum >not for threes< (warp) den wehmŸtigen schlussakkord setzen. lawrences mix atmet hier jedenfalls die gelassenheit eines lichtdurchfluteten sonntagmorgens zwischen modernistischer gro§stadt und waldlichtung und gibt so seinem globalen kŸnstlerischen ansatz die passende dimension

viele der antiken heldenfiguren waren zugleich halbgštter oder zumindest gegenstand religišser verehrung. wie war das noch gleich: god is a dj? spa§ beiseite. die zwšlfte ibiza-season des cocoon-teams um sven vŠth hat sich als motto >cocoon heroes< gesetzt. cocoon recordings sorgt deshalb mit der mittlerweile fŸnften summer-mix-ausgabe fŸr die offizielle einstimmung in diese mega-event-reihe. eines der absoluten highlights in dieser saison ist der auftritt von adam beyer am 25. juli. der stockholmer drumcode-labelboss gehšrt seit Ÿber fŸnfzehn jahren zusammen mit richie hawtin, jeff mills und sven vŠth zu den wichtigsten taktgebern der elektronischen tanzmusik. als produzent oft ein garant fŸr stringenten und harten techno, beweist beyer seine vielschichtigkeit mit einem energetischen parforceritt zwischen hypnotisch perkussivem techhouse, dub und acid und Ÿberrascht nicht zuletzt mit einer ausgeprŠgten neigung zu sinn stiftenden vocal-samples. schon bei der opening party im amnesia dabei ist der frankfurter dorian paic, als mit-inhaber der plattenladeninstitution freebase und als label-chef von raum...musik. seit vielen jahren untrennbar mit der rhein-main-szene verbunden. wer dorian paic als dj bereits erleben durfte, wei§ um seine beispiellose begabung, mit geschmackssicher reduzierten und dennoch unverwechselbaren techhouse-juwelen eine ganz eigene geschichte zu erzŠhlen.

ein set, das vor dancefloor-knallern nur so strotzt! moritz von oswald, dinky, loco dice, 2000 and one, dubfire, chymera, johannes heil - state of the art im sachen tech-house 2011!

kein simples >best of<-abfeiern, sondern neun hits in nagelneuen remixes: guy gerber und kollektiv turmstra§e, roman flŸgel und martin buttrich, tim green und argy und 2000 and one... hammer!

hectic times require adequate measures. shorten the text message, shorten any url, filter a newsfeed to make a broadband broader - in any way, take a shortcut wherever you intend to go. while the world is struggling for convenience, those who chose the road less travelled will soon become - or already are? - outsiders. in many ways this is the case of jacek sienkiewicz - with over 30 releases behind, and over a decade of running his own label, he persistently followed his very own path, creating music that very soon began to be impossible to define. friendly, but not fraternizing with everyone and his family, modest, but stubborn only in a positive way, jacek is an individual with clear, personal vision and an unorthodox approach to music - light years away from the hectic, utilitarian ethos of club-derived electronic beats. and this story finally took shape - at the same time rock solid and otherworldly ethereal - in the form of “on the road , without any doubt one of the few rare records, this complex and challenging, to be derived in recent years from the music formerly known as techno. this album successfully attempts to embrace virtually all aspects of modern electronic music - from rave-like club bangers, through detroitish passion and deep house-like style, towards ambient soundscapes that are mariana trench deep

sven vaeth and his comrade-in-arms rambled into the night like wild animals scouting out their trail, impelled by an insatiable desire for life. only a quick glance into the wild animals eyes is necessary to make us want to join this adventure.

>to share and to increase the love, to let the soul speak through the music, is a feeling which can hardly be described with words. with loving, i want to embrace the whole world, because this journey to the origins of electronic dance music in between modern detroit, high tech soul and house is coming from the very bottom of my heart.< (johannes heil, 2010)

for the fourth year running cocoon recordings gives a forecast on the upcoming ibiza season with the latest in its summer mix series. after having such renowned djs as dubfire, loco dice, andre galluzzi and chris tietjen, the cocoon team were able to play another well-known dj ace from their sleeve: marco carola.

chris, who is now resident of his own night >loaded< at sven vŠthÕs homebase cocoonclub frankfurt, has now put together the best tracks of 2009 and assembles artists from the likes of egbert, tiefschwarz, electric rescue, alex flatner & lopazz, tim green, nick curly, stefan goldmann, julian jeweil, extrawelt, len faki or yousef in this mix!

>the mix is rather a non-conventional mix, as there are many unreleased tracks from friends and artists that i deeply admire, like bruno pronsato, matthew styles and the mole, as well as some tracks from ladies i really love musically, like nina kraviz, laverne radix or deniz kurtel who provide an extra feminine touch to the mix-cd< dinky says.

excellent sven vŠth 2009 double cd mix... incl dvd !!!

like hardly any other contemporary dj, catherine britton aka cassy is living at the interfaces between reduction and soul, jazzy deep house and geometrically structured techno. and it comes as no surprise, because being the english-born daughter of a caribbean father and an austrian mother, cassy started at a very early age to develop a sense for artistic aesthetics that draws its special magic from the >in-between< especially. being resident in berlin since 2003, she quickly gained a residence at the panorama bar, worked as a producer with such renowned musicians like ricardo villalobos, luciano, mathew jonson or swayzak and releases her music on labels such as perlon, ostgutton as well as on her own imprint cassy. simply devotion, cassys 2nd mix cd after the highly acclaimed panorama bar 01 compilation is a proof of her love for deep house of a different kind, which has - despite occasional flashes of souly vocals - nothing to do with garage house and handbag factor

phil kieran has been in the upper echelons of the electronic music game for more than a decade, but is only now releasing his debut album under his own name.

the green & blue open air on the first september weekend has become a fixed date in the festival schedule for seven years now. in this year, the second edition of the associated mix-cd is to be released, mixed by two djs who are able to revert on both long-time experience and innovation in sound: tobi neumann and onur …zer.

this fourth label compilation presents all dancefloor burners of the last 12 months on cocoon recordings in a diversified and coherent mix: martin buttrich, schneider & galluzzi, guy gerber, tiefschwarz, reboot, adam proll and timo maas undisputedly belong to the group of artists who have enhanced electronic dance music in the past year.

2 cd compilation die den cocoon sommer 2008 wiederspiegeln.mit den newcomern minilogue, markus fix und robert dietz eršffnet er dies mal eine funkige und housige saison and die auch mit cd 2 angeknšpft wird.reboot und johnny d prŠsentieren ihre eigenen tracks, die kompromisslos den vibe der insel wiederspiegeln.
