sie trägt das herz auf der zunge und tanzt als gebe es kein morgen: musik ist für aerea negrot nicht nur kunst, sie ist auch die luft die sie zum leben braucht. die autobiographischen songs ihres debütalbums >arabxilla< gewähren einen tiefen einblick in ihr seelenleben und vermeiden es sich einem konkreten musikalischen genre zu verschreiben. mal bildet techno, dann house und im nächsten moment elektronik das fundament für ihre augenzwinkernd ernsten lieder. als direkte referenzen nennt die venezuelanerin gern klaus nomi, yma sumac und maria callas. jenseits des gesangs gibt es nur zwei produzenten die sie über alles verehrt: titonton duvante und ricardo villalobos. letzterer steuert nun einen remix zu ihrer neusten 12inch auskopplung bei. wie immer gibt er sich bei seiner variante des tracks >miss you< minimal, bassgewaltig und episch. vierzehn minuten rhythmus aus dem bauch heraus, so wie nur er ihn arrangieren kann. auch der berliner philip bader schätzt es minimal und verwandelt den track >its lover, love in eine charmant hüpfende house-sensation, deren sonnige magie einen ganze wochenenden lang in atem halten kann. näher dran am original und nicht minder originell spielt kiki mit >its lover, love<. aereas stimme wird hier sehnsüchtig über einen houserhythmus geloopt und verhext das ohr mit einem intensiven stimmen-dschungel. würde der name witch-house nicht längst anderweitig vergeben sein, kiki dürfte als sein erfinder gelten.

includes cd of the album arabxilla!
the debut album from the venezuelan aerea negrot is one of those records which speak with such intensity that her deepest emotions are instantly laid bare to the listener. this heartfelt account in music and words relays her unique outlook and life story to the world without a hint of inhibition.

how many people would have believed such a thing could work? would diva-like vocal grace and cool, calculated club sound efficiency not react like matter and anti-matter upon contact with one another? yet perhaps this is where the secret of her distant charm lies, the glamorously crafted cool, the vague elusiveness of aérea negrot. last year the venezuelan vocal wonder silenced any doubters with her first single >all i wanna do<, creating a new platform for her boundless range of musical expression alongside her career singing with hercules & love affair. now her second 12 inch is coming out on bpitch - just in time to set the tone for her coming solo album. the berlin sound wizard tobias freund is on hand once more to produce and mix ìright body, wrong timeî. he has commanded the mixing desk for a whole host of artists and labels from minus to warner over the last twenty years or so and made himself a regular fixture in the bpitch sound cosmos with his production work for ellen allien, dance disorder, heartthrob and indeed aérea negrot

a twinkle, a spark, and there you have it. many will say they saw it coming. at some point you could no longer ignore the signs, and actually youd suspected it all along: glamour is back in the club. berlin has become what new york was in 1981 and aÚrea negrot is the eartha kitt of the post-techno age. as part of hercules & love affair, perhaps the most enigmatic disco-ball band of the present day, the venezuelan disco diva has tackled issues of gender code through a four-four discourse and convinced the world that a slick performance under a strobe light can outdo than anything that has appeared in the light of day. now - as a taste of whats to come on her album next year - she is releasing her first ep on bpitch...

nun endlich erscheint >arabxilla< - ein album voll źberraschender post-popsongs, die irgendwo zwischen techno, house und elektronik tanzen und zu denen aŽrea negrot variantenreich auf deutsch, sowie gelegentlich auf englisch und spanisch geschichten aus ihrem abenteuerlichen zigeunerleben erzŠhlt. ihre stimme nutzt sie dabei je nach lust und laune - mal klassisch operettenhaft, mal in kesser spoken word manier oder einfach so, wie sie frei nach schnauze redet. >i really enjoy hearing a twist in music, like the music of yma sumac who used her classical voice to sing mambo.< seit 2010 leiht aŽrea negrot dem disco-house-projekt hercules & love affair ihre stimme und nahm mit der band um den us-produzenten andy butler das album >blue songs< auf und tourte durch die welt

luiz mendes jr or junior mendes was a ubiquitous figure in the brazilian soul / funk scene of the 70s and early 80s, contributing to compositions for bands such as banda black rio, tim maia, sandra de sa and many more. this, his only solo album has remained off the map (unless you re a collector of rare brazilian vinyl). despite his huge contribution to brazilian music the lp has remained unissued until now, 35 years after its recording.

venezuelan-born miguel toro is an impulse generator: a versatile drummer and percussionist. rhythm is his motor, but rhythm here does not just denote a motion within a certain beat. rather it means a fundamental, ever changing pulse, vibration, resonance. inspired by aesthetic forms as intense and diverse as the jungle of sounds ascending from his royal dust, miguel toro succeeds in giving them an extraordinary voice.

no time to take a breather, no time for a contemplative chill session - the second edition of bpitch control s werkschau (showcase) cd is about to hit the shelves! in line with the overall bpitch showcase concept, the new release is in no way just another run-of-the-mill compilation of best-of tracks, but rather a selection of extraordinary and highly functional club gems that represent bpitch s harmonious concept as perfectly as they demonstrate its musical breadth. the most noticeable characteristics the three extended versions share are their vocal presence and the extremely distinctive way that the artists make use of language and voice. in contrast, the fact that the ep is perfectly arranged for the dance floor comes across as almost a matter of course, and every track exhibits this inherent feeling in equal parts - with it truly coming to life in cormacs >the present<, which opens the albums a-side.
