long awaited perlon compilation

tobias. returns to ostgut ton with his third full length eyes in the center and expands the musical narrative laid out by his helium sessions ep (o-ton, 2016). the berghain resident keeps exploring the vast modular synth-driven techno, experimental and ambient territories on a journey in-between genres. tobias freund is long established as an influential artist and has Ð since the early 1990s Ð been working as a professional producer, sound engineer, label owner and strictly live musician. besides his early solo projects (such as pink elln, metazone or phobia) heÕs also been collaborating with dandy jack (as sieg †ber die sonne), ricardo villalobos (as odd machine), max loderbauer (as nsi.), valentina berthelon (as recent arts) and atom tm to only name a few. with his vast experience, diverse output and interests, tobias. doesnt tire to actively push against existing boundaries and explore new areas of electronic music.

compost pr�sentiert das 13. kapitel dieser bahnbrechenden, hoch gesch�tzten compilation serie. das gesamtpaket auf einer doppel-cd und 4-lp mit zwei gelben, zwei schwarzen scheiben. wie immer hat compost masterind michael reinboth diese compilation mit geschmack und sensibilit�t f�r ausgefallene tracks zusammengestellt. von schlagkr�ftigen floorfillern, �ber geisterhaften tunes oder latin , funk monstern, cinematischen epen, balearic, zerfransten tools, bis bitter-s�§en hybriden ist alles dabei was future jazz ausmacht. selbst die geklampfte version von maze twilight �berrascht mit einem vibe, den fsoj immer ausgemacht hat. diverse magazine haben die fsoj serie als eine der besten compilation serien aller zeiten gefeiert oder gelistet. mit dem start der serie 1995 wurde das genre future jazz quasi aus der taufe gehoben.

der londoner dubstep-pionier und hotflush-labelbetreiber scuba aka paul rose beweist seine einzigartigkeit mit einem 75-min�tigen fabric-set aus 42(!) �ber- und nacheinander gelegten tracks. unterschiedliche k�nstler wie pearson sound und patrick cowley, donato dozzy und midland treffen in einer d�ster-verf�hrerischen atmosph�re aufeinander, so dass man sich zwischen pumpendem lo-fi techno und subsonischen b�ssen im rave-kosmos verliert.

wowser, what a stunning double feature we have here in our hands today! to all our ibiza amigos and chicas: cocoon recordings presents an unbelievable package just in time for the peak of this years ibiza season. please welcome sonja moonear and one of the greatest house and techno producers of all time, mister carl craig! and what a package this isÉ full of love, soul and electronic dance music highlights. carl craig is in charge for cd1 of our official 2016 ibiza release. the detroits 90s techno wunderkind and the mastermind behind some of the biggest house and techno records ever made leaves us almost speechless with his amazing selection and mix. of course we didnt expect anything

nice price deal !!! concealed sounds are very proud to announce martinez fourth studio album, -o-pen-. it has been about four years since he released his -paradigm shift- on moon harbour, and during this time he been busy experimenting in his studio to come up with a very mature sound rooted in the musical output we ve seen lately on his 12- releases for concealed sounds as well as other labels. on -o-pen- the focus is not to make any concept around the tracks or the album itself, but just to have ten full compositions that each have their individuality and not necessarily is the same genre or style. you ll hear more melodies again and instruments, as well as analogue drum machines and modular synths that creates the soundscape of this album. a very organic album, including all sounds from the usual house & techno to more dub, ambient and even jazz influences. we are very excited to release this piece of work. early support from: zip, ricardo villalobos, raresh, s.a.m. & sylphe.

last dj-kicks of the year and its a banger from our man seth troxler.

ibiza is known for that very special and unique vibe. this atmosphere full of deep emotions mixed with wild energy, salty air and hot summer nights. this is what we want to give to you and what we tried to present right from the start of our great ibiza adventure more than 15 years ago! all led by the big mastermind mister sven v�th who started back then on the white island with his vision and made it come true more and more year by year. looking back at 15 editions of his mix-cd-series the sound of the season we have to state that these mixes are acoustic documents for contemporary witnesses, the recored soundtracks of our lifes on the island for all these great and unforgettable summer seasons!

it is a smart and airy groove of atoms in space that rules this mesmerizing album, leading off with an irresistibly deconstructed downbeat monstrosity deceptively tagged as the modern hit midget as opposed to actually being a giant. one giant of seven, to be precise: safe in harbour are the seven giants of free funk who proceed through a variety of way-out psychedelicacies. which increase in flavour under headphones. the wane of villalobos and loderbauers free-floating energy of their re:ecm work is more than offset here by the increase in rhythmic push through sensual syncopation and eruptive bass energy. the duo is the impetus in perlons great new swinging machine.

jacek sienkiewicz is back. drifting is the artistÕs 5th full-length release and the second one on his warsaw-based label recognition since 1999. his records were played and strongly supported by renowned artists such as sven v�th and richie hawtin, legendary producers like ricardo villalobos, uwe schmidt and recently, max loderbauer collaborated with jacek. drifting takes its listener on a complex but still accessible journey to a state-of-the-art techno territory where carl craig melodies coexist with stark minimalism of robert hood, but they serve only as entry points for further exploration

the trained pianist max loderbauer, together with ricardo villalobos, has just breezily launched the jazz sanctuary of the munich-based ecm records into the ether as re: ecm. on the new adventure he now logically again finds himself working with sanctuaries. for the tool he uses for creating worlds is the finest modular synthesizer in the world, the buchla 200

it seems that there is an overabundance of artists today who have reached a level of success from their work, but very few of them come close to the level of output and range as butch. equal parts producer extraordinaire, dj, gentleman, and comedian, butch has everything deserving of a star in todays dance music arena. which is why, we here at watergate are extremely pleased to present him as next in line for our watergate mix series

der rum�ne raresh ist neben ricardo villalobos mitglied des triumvirats (a:rpia:r) und bestritt bereits mehrere mixsampler f�r sven v�ths cocoon-label. sein sich dynamisch entwickelndes fabric-set bewegt sich von authentischem deepem house zu hypnotisch-elektronischen styles und fesselt den h�rer mit bewusstseinssprengender komplexit�t.

prins thomas jumped on the mixing decks and prepared a sonic trip for endless flight records. including , theo parrish, ricardo villalobos, donato dozzy, floating points, mike huckaby, bjoern torske, dj fett burger, marcellus pittman, bee mask, surgeon, silent servant and shed.

for fourteen years the island ibiza has been haunted by cocoons high-spirited tribe. in 2013, cocoon turned the beloved amnesia into a tropical jungle. the jungle seduces with lush colors and intriguing sounds. without hesitation you dive into lush greens, amazed by heat and beauty

the soul behind our new watergate-compilation belongs to a dedicated dj and house-enthusiast: mathias kaden attends to number 14 of our popular mix-series and gives proof not only of his technical finesse but also of his ability to combine contemporary releases with evergreen classics.

its hard to believe, but somehow we seem to be living in a time leapÉ a time leap that already brings us the eighth edition of the cocoon in-house mix-cd series.

fabric macht einen sehr klugen schachzug und begr�§t den dj/produzenten petre inspirescu, ein aush�ngeschild der rum�nischen houseszene, in seiner serie. petre handhabt es wie sein vorbild ricardo villalobos und serviert eine komplexe, aber zwingende vision von housemusic aus auschlie§lich unver�ffentlichtem und exklusivem eigenmaterial. eine klasse f�r sich!

zip ist nicht nur eine der umtriebigsten pers�nlichkeiten der hiesigen house/techno-szene, sondern auch eines ihrer gr�§ten r�tsel. er scheut das rampenlicht, ist aber in allen bereichen elektronischer clubmusik allgegenw�rtig: als dj (mit residenzen in der berliner panorama bar und im offenbacher robert johnson), als erfolgreicher labelbetreiber (perlon, mit dem hauptact ricardo villalobos) und als produzent (dimbiman). zip hat es sich nicht nehmen lassen, der einladung der legend�ren fabric-serie folgend, eine eigene ausgabe abzuliefern, bei der er auf nonkonformistische art und weise techno-takte aufbricht und sie in warme deep-house-grooves �berf�hrt. das ergebnis ist so einzigartig wie schillernd und mit sicherheit eine weiterer meilenstein dieser kultigen ausnahmeserie.

uk promoter arkitekt has commissioned robert dietz to helm its first mix compilation.

daniel stefanik is one of the techno and house newcomers of the last years. his carefreeness as a dj behind the decks and his likeable appearance are literally distinctive for a new generation of young, down-to-earth producers from germany, which are the result of the influence of vaeth, villalobos and hawtin on the one side, and solid but hedonistic house on the other

addison groove (aka antony williams) bestritt als headhunter seit 2007 sieben releases auf dem einflussreichen label tempa und erwarb sich einen kultstatus innerhalb der dubstep-szene. 2010 kam dann die �berraschende wendung mit einem der fettesten bass-tracks der dekade (footcrab),und das unter dem neuen pseudonym: addison groove.das feedback zu footcrab seitens der dance-szene war ph�nomenal,von kritiker- wie von kommerzieller seite. nicht nur die dubstep-djs,sondern diesmal auch techno- & house dj-schwergewichte wie aphex twin, surgeon, ricardo villalobos und mr scruff spielten footcrab hoch und runter und machten addison groove einem breiteren publikum bekannt.addison grooves einfluss auf die uk-bass music-szene ist gewichtig und ungebrochen, und sein von chicago ghetto tek und der juke-szene inspirierter style f�hrte zu einem gro§en interesse an diesen neuen genres der bass music.die erwartungen sind hoch, doch wir sind �berzeugt,dass niemand entt�uscht sein wird.h�rt selbst!

dicke dj mixe hat die green & blue 2011 zu bieten etwas dubbig von raresh und etwas housig von sascha dive

we are happy to present the fifth part of >superlongevity<, the labels well introduced compilation series. this one will come as a continuously mixed double cd, 28 tracks....all unreleased

excellent deep / groovin minimal techy album ... for those who like luciano , villalobos etc

introducing the raudive alias, he created a reduced, sexy, dancefloor-centered wave of greatness for labels from drumcode to cocoon. this sound turned out to be highly attractive for the djs to play and for the girls and boys to dance to. the unparalleled appeal of his beats left the usual minimal competitors sounding rather dull. thus raudive quickly became the blueprint of techno modernism and one of todays most influential genre-bending production styles. macro unleashes the highly anticipated debut album - chamber music. chamber music is both: claustrophobic in sound design, reminiscent of the dark and sweaty concrete club spaces this music inhabits, as well as carrying acoustic qualities of induced instrumental experimentalism. bitches brew voodoo reeds, new york no wave voices and european avant strings spin a mesmerizing dark patina around the ultra-sexy year-3000-rhythms. no wonder theres huge dj support all accross the board - from miss kittin to richie hawtin, surgeon to trevor jackson, ricardo villalobos to jeff mills. massive deep edge and one of 2010 finest albums so far!

brill 2010 cocoon compilation with the hottest ibiza tracks...all previously unreleased complete new tracks

>the mix is rather a non-conventional mix, as there are many unreleased tracks from friends and artists that i deeply admire, like bruno pronsato, matthew styles and the mole, as well as some tracks from ladies i really love musically, like nina kraviz, laverne radix or deniz kurtel who provide an extra feminine touch to the mix-cd< dinky says.
