nils frahms late night tales sind eine hypnotische reise durch moderne und klassische komposition, experimentelle elektronik, jazz, dub-techno, filmmusik und soul, gleichsam verstörend wie betörend. viele der tracks, ausgesucht aus seiner reichhaltigen plattensammlung aus schellacks, 7 und lps, kassetten, minidiscs und wav/mp3s, wurden neu editiert und mit effekten versehen. dennoch wirkt die zusammenstellung niemals wie ein mixset, sondern entfaltet sich eher wie eine fluffige daunendecke Über das gemüt des zuhörers. wir begegnen solch unterschiedlichen künstlern wie miles davis, boards of canada und nina simone, während nils frahm selber eine neuinterpretation des john cale tracks 4:33 als exklusives cover beisteuert.

after retiring from the jamaican police force arthur duke reid established his treasure isle liquor store and sound system in pink lane kingston and was crowned the undisputed king of sound and blues in 1956, 57 and in 58. the duke then moved into record production and after relocating the store to 33 bond street, he then built a recording studio on top of his new premises in 1966. according to the musicians and singers the wooden construction of the treasure isle recording studio gave the music a distinctive warmth and richness and with resident engineer byron baron/smithy smith at the controls, the sound of a bond street recording was immediately recognisable.
but the studio one sound is different to the treasure isle sound! the people have to know. - bunny striker lee
a glittering selection of strikers treasure isle recordings are featured on this compilation. so please sit back and enjoy the set!

pinning down sascha dive as cocoons deephouse wunderkind wouldnt really hit the nail on the head however it isnÕt far from truth. compared to most other artists of this genre he can for sure be classified as a young gun but there is no soundproof for his age in his music at all.

after last years album love & devotion the husband and wife duo of mike paradinas and lara rix-martin follow up with weird drift. the album shows just how much their ability to write confident and thoughtful pop songs has developed, while still being able to retain the sleepy cushion of steamy synth pop that made the first record so rewarding to listen to. this time album features the vocals of a vezelay, a.k.a. french singer and producer matthieu le berre, who brings a gentle poised falsetto to the duos productions along with a delicate but hopeful angst.

theres a common thread that runs through all of brandt brauer fricks music. it is this: interesting things happen at the interface of machine and hand-made music. the berlin trios 2010 album, you make me real, fused techno and classical. the 2011 follow-up, mr machine, saw them go the whole classical-meets-club hog with a ten-piece ensemble playing dance music live. then, earlier this year, came miami, a darker, more song-based collection exploring the same man-machine ideas.

from the often indistinct morass of modern hip-hop comes something so singular as to merit special attention wrote the guardian about: brownstudys tell me more about bubble album, released on third ear in 2005. a most soulfully cerebral volume of no-pose wisdom. mojo wrote, musically: brownstudy evokes the clammy, distressed soul of sly stones riot, and the lush visions of 4 hero. life well lived is brownstudys new album. 11 songs (9 lyrical flows and 2 intrumentals).
