angelehnt an ein legend�res konzert im mai 2008, bei dem das pariser symphonieorchester les si�cles unter seinem dirigenten francois-xavier roth kompositionen des detroiter techno-produzenten carl craig in vollkommen neue klangsph�ren �berf�hrte, erscheint nun das album -versus-, das diese konzeption aufgreift und in perfektion vollendet. dabei wirkt der franz�sische pianist francesco tristano als mediator, der craigs techno-sounds in klassische partitionen transformiert. als zus�tzlicher spiritual advisor war carl craigs langj�hriger freund und wegbegleiter moritz von oswald an den aufnahmen beteiligt, mit dem er zusammen in 2008 das legend�re -recomposed- album bei der deutschen grammophon ver�ffentlichte. traditionelle klassik-orchestrierung trifft elektronischen underground-sound.

pilocka krach still means nothing but pilocka noise. sheÕs the charming queen of berlins post techno underground and a true recording & perfoming artist. her new release on her very own imprint greatest hits international is a conceptional framed double vinyl album and a journey diary of her last two years on tour around the globe, with mexico, detroit and her hometown roots in berlin as fixpoints on her neverending agenda. pilocka krach is ãsugar caneÒ & ãthe lost amigosÒ, her band and all at once. her style is pure electro post rave simplicity, where each single sound is either raw sampling cuts or deep growling synthesis. big basslines meet funky grooves and surprising hooks, grooving along with her own voice and a lot of other vocal features, whereever you go. each Ôn everthing gets the room it deserves and mingles alltogether to so much more, than just another stereo sum. never heard an album that dry and that wet at the same time, with an overall fun and jam factor, that is truly touching. she took her original style more than just a few steps further and sharpened her skills in an impressive and real straight forward way of raw funkyness and true storytelling. you canÕt listen to it without moving. pilocka is always surfing the right balance of how much, or better how less it needs, to keep it going, get down to the point of no return and beyond the miracle of repetition.
