back to the roots: merkur releases its 6.5th ep presenting the japanese dj gonno as in the first releases of the label.

aptly titled the noughties, the latest 12 inch from beats in space records features three tracks recorded between 2005 and 2009 courtesy of tokyos humbly dynamic gonno. a dynamic producer who is clearly not afraid to nest until crucial hatch time, gonno flies the coop with a wingspan throwing psychedelic colour at a sunburst sky. blending a spectrum of musical influences and personal touch points about the people (and animals) he has encountered and the implicit joy / sorrow in that exchange, gonnos productions blur the lines between art and life experience.

japanese import altzmusica is a label presided over by altz, who is known for releases from bearfunk, dfa, and bosconi.

comes with a stripped down acid-cussive version from our favorite swedish techno machines skudge and another storming remix from gatto fritto himself (and a beautiful ambient track turn to light).

the 3rd release on merkur features the 3 japanese artists gonno, shingo suwa and kai. the three musicians created a lovely release with smooth danceable house music!

the second release from merkur aka japasese embassy is coming. we can expect an exciting and unexpected 3 tracker which does not fit in any conventional category. gonno, tokyo based producer and dj, has graped everyones attetion with his outstanding “i don’t need competition (inkl. donnacho costello mix)” on beyond records in late winter 2008. for merkur he has designed the acid-revival track “desolation 303?,,. this track is build on a tricky chicago styled rhythm and an acid sequence which first comes slowly, later on developing an beautiful drive suitable on every dancefloor. berlin based japanese artist / label owner shingo suwa painted the tune “silver blue” with a lot of love for chords and melodic spins. maybe you can call it housemusic knocked down to a minimal attitude. “two of us” plays with warm synths on a solid base, slightly referring to the detroit deep house culture and impressing with an advanced but nevertheless solid groove

another unknown, unexpected, magic- and mystical whitelabel series. beyond is an intrastellar trip to chicagodetroitchicago by (thats all we know) a new young japanese mastermind called gonno and remixed by non less than irish techno hip priest donnacha costello.

perc trax is proud to welcome back its favourite japanese producers, tokyos salmon & gonno, two of the most individual and innovative producers perc trax has discovered. in a scene that serves up more that its fair share of disposable tracks gonno and salmons tracks bring colour and a sense of much needed fun to techno. this ep is the follow-up to their 006 perc trax debut that won support from josh wink, funk d void, paul woolford, simon baker, alex kid, remute, tom mangan, si begg and jesse somfay amongst others and sees both producers develop as more and more of their personalities can be heard in the tracks. since this first ep, salmon has released tracks on gabriel anandas karmarouge label and us imprint tora tora tora whilst gonno has toured europe and signed to the berlin based merkur label

good news from the merkur kunst headquarters, a.k.a the japanese diaspora embassy: our attempt to enrich berlin cultural activities with a japanese interpretation of electronic music has found its voice with a first 12inch vinyl release. merkur 01 features gonno, a tokyo based artist who already released on uks perc records and japans wc recordings. his track >es< is a pulsating dancefloor twister build on a solid bass substrat rising with warm and tripped out pads. the flipside brings two tracks by merkurboss shingo suwa. he operates the japanese machines in a classic chicago style - percussive, hypnotic and with this specific grasp only the inventors can provide. these tracks are well made uptempo technotunes with a slight touch of aristrocratic reserve

incredible 4 track ep with huge percussive techno!! comes with detroit flavour ..

after his appearance on born free records, rollerboys recordings, and rett i fletta, johannes wilkstrom aka yourhighness contributes to cocktail d amore music with stratofortress. the berlin based imprint gathered techno guru rrose, born free records owner samo dj, and international japanese wave representative gonno, to offer an ep with a wide range of interpretations of the title track. the original mix is an acid based, industrial influenced techno banger. highly energetic, for sweaty late-night dance floors. on the same side samo dj transforms the techno blaster into a funky ebm ballad, characterized by a deep male voice and a breakbeat groove. rrose is on remix duty on the b-side. stratofortress suddenly turns into a dubby, everlasting build up, that eventually implodes in the depth of a black hole. closing the ep gonno offers a slow-mo rework. deep and very cinematic, this remix will please every cosmic hole connaisseur.
