the late steve reid, veteran jazz drummer and percussionist, and kieran hebden (four tet), the british electronic musician/producer young enough to be his grandson, present the fifth and final installment of their momentous synergy. the music on this double cd was recorded in concert on 20 june 2009 in the foyer of the queen elizabeth hall at london s southbank centre, as part of the meltdown festival curated by free jazz legend ornette coleman. for this marathon workout, reid and hebden were joined by swedish power saxophonist mats gustafsson, whose fiery blowing style had inspired kieran to seek out a drummer like steve to work with in the first place. live at the south bank stands as a memorial to a thrilling and productive partnership sadly cut off in its prime.

gro§artiges neues signing auf compost! pitchben aus mŸnchen katapultiert den electro funk der 80er jahre ins hier und jetzt. the whispers, d-train oder zapp sind die einflŸsse des mŸnchner musikers und produzenten, der in den 90ern als teenager unter dem namen m-tech seine ersten gehversuche als dj machte. 2002 gewann er die deutschen dmc meisterschaft mit seiner gescratchten interpretation des break machine-hits street dance . mit seinem ersten album pitchslap nimmer der bayer ganz klar bezug auf seine electro funk-helden der 80er, doch geht es ihm eindeutig nicht darum, den sound der vergangenheit authentisch nachzubauen. pitchben ist ein kind der €re nach daft punk und ed banger - und das hšrt man diesen energiegeladenen tracks an. pitchslap ist kein album, das nur am computer entstanden ist. der mŸnchner hat sich neben diversen sŠngern eine blŠser-sektion ins studio geholt, und die streicher kommen ebenfalls nicht aus der konserve. und demnŠchst wird pitchben mit seiner band die bŸhnen der republik rocken.

the album is just a few seconds under an hour long, consists of seventeen tracks and covers every style from wonky reggae through pop-funk, street spitting, straight up hip hop, sung ballads and epic death-disco. it deepens much of what mr manuva has already achieved over a glorious decade of innovation, but also throws in enough new ideas and adventures to last most creative artists a lifetime. we think it is his very best work since run come save me. we re wondering (whisper it) whether it might be his best album ever.

andy vazs straight vacationing, his first full-length artist album, since the 2006 release of repetitive moments last forever, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but theyll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring house music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call house. straight vacationing dives into the genre in all its rich variety: from deep melodic, early chicago influenced acid house, jacking-jedi mind tricks to disco-type grooves and last but not least excursions into bizzaro world, with a vaz typical almost psychedelic experimental-edged sound, its all there.

raise the curtain once more on a very special orchestral performance. how could highgrade records better celebrate its 100th release than with twelve tracks from the highgrade disharmonic orchestra? the creative combo featuring both label bosses tom clark and todd bodine, alongside philip bader, daniel dreier and dale, began over a year ago with the intention of celebrating the tenth birthday of the berlin label. and the resulting gift: a musical experiment. the five artists have bundled their creativity together into a symphony unparalleled in the techno scene. every performance is like a jam session: all five laptops are interconnected, so each of the artists has the opportunity to react to the others and modify each track as desired. thus, new arrangements are created and constantly re-interpreted. drum machines and synthesizers are also in play, to further stretch the improvisational possibilities. no wonder then, that the 100th release follows in this creative vein. the highgrade disharmonic orchestra, with multilayer, kiddnaps us away into vastly different musical worlds: from deep influences and custom recorded vocals to an array of technoid sounds and effects. then back to groovy, swinging beats reminiscent of a balmy summer evening on the beach. therefore the record is something of a rollercoaster ride, where we never know what might be waiting behind the next curve. typically highgrade

gloss drop ist ein faszinierendes, hypnotisches album, das sich jeder kategorisierung & schneller analyse entzieht. der battles-sound vereint so unterschiedliche richtungen wie hardcore, tonaler minimalismus, neo-klassik, techno & post-rock. wŠhrend dance-acts wie chemical brothers oder massive attack regelmŠ§ig gastsŠnger einladen, sind battles der erste gro§e rock-act, der dies tut. ihre gŠsteliste ist beeindruckend: der pionier des dunklen synthie-pops gary numan im muskulšsen tribal-rhythmus, der chilenische techno-minimalist matias aguayo wird auf seine stimme reduziert, kult-indierockerin kazu makino (blonde redhead) mit zŸndendem dance-punk & yamantaka eye, messianischer dreadlocks-frontmann der japan-radikalkombo boredoms, betŠtigt sich als interstellarischer mc im schamanen-chant. es sind diese ŸberschŠumenden und unerwarteten momente, die battles von allen anderen zeitgenšssischen bands unterscheiden

auf den ersten album seit 5 jahren zelebriert pan/tone die glŸckseeligkeit des nachtlebens. so natŸrlich wie er dabei auf dem alten pfad der housemusik flaniert, so sehr ist er doch ein mit techno in gro§buchstaben assoziierter protagonist der clubkultur.
