unser liebstes new york label hat ist zurück. kaum ein anderes label kriegt diese besondere note hin, diese einheit von minimal & listening die dich tanzen oder träumen lassen kann

excellent minimal microfunk trax, limited 10inch !!

since tobi kramer rocked the format b remix contest he has been basking in the brilliance of his remix for socks and sandals. it is no surprise that the two label bosses wont let go of this young man from lower saxony, though one searching for reasons need look no further than his formatik debut ep eye patch.

the third and last format:b vinyl-package is adjusted! subject matter still is the current album restless which has been taken on by big name artists of the international surroundings of the two. in pole position a1 this time is the italian uto karem. he took a shot at piano man and hits the keys just like we are used to from format:b. with his version of socks & sandals the dutch dj madskillz comes around the corner. its his second pounding release on formatik records after his carnival chaos ep. a debut however is given by the also italian artist fernando tessis who keep his eyes upon warped and who went into the remix battle with trumpets and timpani giving no less attention to his demonstration of his garland of corn on b2.

the restless take a remix break! with their formatik 008, format:b presents three artists- each taking on a title of their current album to knit them in their own manner. at the head the berlin buddies pan-pot, shake the a1 with a breeze of rave-charm as usual right out of their sleeve, rocking the track liquid to its climax then glazing the peak with the smooth voice of fran. on b1 dj pp accelerates. gabriel rocha is how hes called in real life, is one of the south-american stars of the scene, delivering an energetic remix of oversexed. last but not least: the winner of the remix-contest in which format:b has listened through a house-high pile of promos is tobi kramer- a young artist of the neighborhood, who has been casted showing his talent by making out of socks and sandals one more time a club-hit.

on their last album franz and jakob aka format b were to be found covered in soot and coal, firing up the engines of the dance locomotive, now they have gone greener and swapped over to wind power and are fishing the >restless< oceans of the world. tirelessly the two sailors work on the deck disregarding the cold and the weather, pulling in the nets filled with floundering hits. this time they have spiced up the bait with the amazing voice of fran on >liquid< who turns into a working class siren and manages to rock the boat properly with track 2. keeping with the maritime theme the boys have used a harmonica on >socks and sandals< and a piano on >piano man<. classic format b can be found on >atomizer< and >oversexed< … kicking man high bass beats to thrill the four quarter beat fans, and >biker meth< is going to keep you dancing till noon (at least). even with the pressures of jet setting, label management, party organisation, building a studio, and the romantic needs of their girlfriends they have still managed to finish their first formatik album to their complete satisfaction and are extremely proud to present the first artist album on formatik records. ahoi and enjoy people!

die ersten drei tracks sind uptempo microhouse ambience lounge klickertracks , auf der b seite gehts dann mehr auf der tanzfläche romantisch weiter...
