tt05 is brought by st. joseph, an excellent dj and producer from cologne. the ep is split into two very different types of sounds, one presents a more rolling techno type of sound and the other, more mellow vibes.

the next ep on raum musik is coming from our dear friend jorge savoretti. jorge is hailing from argentina and is one of the main artists in his country besides franco cinelli. we have been following jorge s work for quite a while and now it was the right match as for our label. we are very happy about this release and we hope that you enjoy the tracks as much as we do.

boris bunnik is no stranger in the world of electronic music. he released several albums and ep’s under a variety of monikers since 2007 on labels like delsin, shipwrec, frustrated funk and his own transcendent imprint. fauxpas musik welcomes him for a new project called severnaya.
originally hailing from the island of terschelling, the most northern and remote part of the netherlands he now made a piece of music dedicated to this special place. severnaya means north in russian and refers to the bright frozen landscapes of the northern archipels. boris often plays with the influences and elements of ambient in his music. if we have to believe the man himself, polar skies is his most personal sound trajectory to come from his mind. drum programming is scarce and what remains is a lush and profound listening experience floating on scapes and melodies. we clearly hear his roots and intentions represented in the airy, tranquil sound design of this new album project. things sound spacious, and life is at ease in these melancholic compositions. crispy crackling percussions and icey pads place you in the midst of a resonant arctic landscape. you can hear influences drawn from producers like biosphere, pub, brian eno but we also hear more contemporary influences from modern day film composition but most of all we here boris his own signature. the tracks were composed over a couple of years (2015-2017) in a more contemplative mindset. at some point this selection formed a consistent piece of music and as a result you hear his most personal and fragile works to date. fauxpas musik is proud to release this new project in 2018. written and produced by boris bunnik aka conforce at the pasadenaoceanlab studios special thanks to family, friends and fauxpas musik for their support. this release comes in 180g vinyl and a hot foil stamping on the cover. vinyl tastes better...

for kontra-musik white label s 10th release we give you none other than nuel. the italian producer is closely connected to the aquaplano label run by donato dozzy a natural source of collaboration as they speak the same language, not least in the musical sense. nuel has perfected this dreamlike and seductive speech and it was irresistible for kontra-musik. on the surface nuel s tracks might seem abstract and mathematical, but there s really an abundance of movement and groove in his music. mechanical yet sensual, there s subtle erotic current running through the whole release: it s like a marvin gaye record for robots that just want to get it on.

as with his previous offerings - that have found a home on the likes of red rack’ems smugglers inn, horn wax, ruff draft, plus his co-owned end of label boss imprint – cyclonix continues to explore the deeper and more leftfield spectrum of underground dance music with a futuristic vision. made up of two original tracks, ‘alien drug store’ ep draws on a host of electronic influences ranging from deep house to detroit beatdown, alongside subtle hints of acid house and dub techno, whilst both retain the producers trademark sci-fi aesthetic. the release is completed with a sterling remix of ‘you’d better not’ from a pioneering legend of the uk underground - 4hero’s marc mac, under his nu era guise. heading up the a side is ‘you’d better not’, a slow-grooving techno cut bolstered by punchy kicks and a rubbery bassline, where foreboding sci-fi vox samples are interspersed with dubbed out chords and crunchy offbeat snares, as the arrangement shifts from one mood to another. the sub-aquatic vibes of ‘two face’ follows, which is set to a hypnotic two chord pattern, 4/4 kicks and a lashing of moody synths that gradually entices you into deeper realms through the aid of rippling hi-hats and rhythmic percussion with a submersed quality. on the flip is marc mac’s nu era take on the 12”s lead cut ‘you’d better not’, who transforms the menacing original into a blast of uplifting broken techno, where the soulful musicality of sustained strings and piano chords complement snippets of the original’s vocal sample that drifts atop adept drum programming, bouncy synth bass and a flurry of glistening synth melodies.

for the third and final part of jerome.c, dubfluss - friendship connection we invited julian alexander and guy from downstairs to join our artist roster. a lot of hard work was made into this 3 part lp by our good friends and we hope everyone enjoys it as much as they did producing it. lots of melodic grooves and solid bass lines, proper house music dance tracks on this release. cheers from berlin!

lee burton is the next artist on raum musik and this is his first single for our label. lee is hailing from greece and we were quite happy to receive some demo tracks of him, as he caught our attention already a while ago. his productions are more house related, but always with a nice, modern twist. his powerful sound and also his very well structured sound design could easily be described as his signature and it s definitely worth keeping an eye on him.

one-sided limited edition white label 12 inch from deep medi. you ll know it when you hear it.

keope is the musical brainchild of toni bruna and marcus rossknecht. with the aim to record an album they ve met in an abandoned quarry on the slovenian border. the outcome tropicalni seems to exist in a vacuum. stylistically, all tracks here owe something to multiple genres and reference points - from folk, balearic, psychedelic and electronica, but none really fit well. synths drift in breezily, floating around the wistful melodies, acoustic guitars sparkle, while flutes & the beats hint at a deeper connection to dance rituals.
limited 12 inch vinyl edition of 250 only coming in a handmade and numbered artwork. each record is highly unique as it goes through an artisan process of hand-printing, folding, glueing and numbering which highlights the aim for creating unique and long-lasting pieces of art.

haiku-chanson mit us-akzent fredda erfindet ihr eigenes musikalisches land - wenn ein chanson durch japanische gedichtformen inspiriert und dann mit dem sound der us-w?ste garniert wird, dann entsteht ein neues album von fredda. wenn der klang der worte allein schon musikalische poesie wird und eigentlich keine ?bersetzung braucht, dann ist eine s§ngerin, texterin und komponistin am werk, die frankophonen pop in eine kunstform verwandelt. freddas konsequente weiterentwicklung erweckt ein chanson voller tiefgang und seele zum leben. vorl§ufiger h¸hepunkt: ihr neues album land.

the beauty of one of those nights can be found in the blend of simplicity and functionality. both tunes are outlined by an almost brutal reduction to the core elements. carefully selected sounds that are arranged in a highly effective sequence of patterns - that is the definition of fabio papa s music. his long time experience as a live performer is reflected directly in his productions. it doesnt take a lot of elements to get a perfect groove he states, but without groove, there is no fire on the dancefloor. the record gets topped off by two powerful remixes by ander and the f.e.m. ensemble.

nein, audio88 ist immer noch nicht gut gelaunt. ja, er brüllt, schimpft und hält mit seinen aggressionen nicht hinter dem berg. aber es gilt mehr denn je, ein missverständnis auszuräumen: der ganze menschenhass, der sich seinen weg in die texte von audio88 bahnt, ist kein selbstzweck. audio88 hasst menschen für ihre intoleranz, für ihre irrationalen Ängste und fehlgeleiteten prioritäten. er kämpft gegen doppelmoral und egozentrismus und nimmt davon weder den hörer noch sich selbst aus.
wenn die musik von audio88 auf der ep „sternzeichen hass“ ausdrücklich politischer anmutet als noch vor ein paar jahren, ist das nur logisch für einen künstler, der auf seine umgebung reagiert. das zugrundeliegende wertesystem verändert sich nicht, die präsenz der feindbilder in gesellschaft und politik dafür um so mehr.

durian brothers album das macht modern, released on kontra-musik in 2014, remains one of the most sought after highlights in our catalogue. the mad scientists of salon des amateurs produced an eccentric masterpiece that can be described in a multitude of ways, straight dance music not being one of them. one of the brothers, stefan schwander, fills this gap with his solo project harmonious thelonious. inspired by american minimalist music and african rhythm patterns, the result is muscular and twangy like an old radboud mens record on steroids. moist and mechanical at the same time.

our next release is coming from phil evans. phil is also part of the new generation of dj’s and producers that are hailing from the rhein-main area around frankfurt. together with his best mate markus sommer he is running the label pager records. he caught our attention already a while ago and so we were quite happy to receive the tracks for this ep from him. he has a lot of personality in his productions already and his musical range is also quite large going from hip hop to house, but also more stripped down stuff or chicago house references can be found in his music selection and influences. besides that he is a lovely and very sympathetic young man and so it is definitely worth keeping an eye on him, because he is on fire.

we are back again with russian artist, module one. at just 22 years-old he is already had a stack of releases including an ambient album on detroit underground. * hometown* was written in the depths of russia in a place called novocherkassk, whose industrial cityscapes made a great impact on the overall sound of the album. most of the tracks were written in a few takes. most notably, the track * innermost self* is a dedication to module ones grandma who passed away a short time ago. due to a tragic sequence of events, he was unable to see her before she fell into a coma. the track is overloaded with tension and fear as well as stark anxiety. vinyl tastes better…

following his release on perlon as alter mahnn, collective member ion ludwig signs toi.toi s 4th release. the ep brings two tracks carefully chosen and crafted. rather than having the dance floor as a drive they are rather more mind driven, a very mature ep. not for you - this track, from the very beginning, manages to create a tension, a rather pleasant tension, a constancy is built and it does keep giving very slowly, building up to be an amazing jam suiting a dance floor as well as an inner moment of peace. are we for real brings a very slick groover. it brings a very delicate and extremely classy straight hihat leading the way at the forefront while the mind is grabbed by the musicality through a beautiful melody in addition to many hypnotic noises in and out.

a long time ago, at a festival far, far away, the members of the legendary borft trio frak were just going to bed in their tent when something caught their attention. now, this was well before fraks rise to international fame - in fact, this moment was swedish music history in the making, because what they heard was someone playing a frak tune. that someone turned out to be kontra-musiks own ulf eriksson and once their paths had crossed, there was no turning back. frak has since released five highly sought after records on kontra-musik and kontra-musik white label.

raum musik 100 is coming from edgardo alonso better known as sakro. he is hailing from mexico and we have been following his work for quite some time now. therefor we are quite happy that we finally found the perfect match of tracks to put this single together. the title track of the ep „no time to explain“ already attracted a lot of attention during the summer when a handful of djs that were lucky enough to already have it, have been dropping the tune on some bigger stages and festivals and it quickly became a sought after track. we are very happy about our 100th release and as always we hope you enjoy the music as much as we do. cheers and happy birthday raum !
