mark henning is back! back on cityfox! a classic acapella and marks distinctive sound collide, result-ing in a huge tune, sounding old school and fresh at the same time. not just the vocals are telling a story here, the synths and bassline add their part to complete the track. the second original trojan is the secret weapon and club bomb, the dark side of the release, because too much sunshine is never healthy. afrilounge take it a step deeper and its big string melody sounds as clean as and sparkles like the sunrise itself. the 1998 edit incorperates the rhythms and vibes of classic house and techno from the era when it all began. thick, groovy basslines and pulsing pads laid out over infectious percussion make this track an instant classic.

the rules are sometimes hazy.

incl. afrilounge remix.

essential compilation! already played by sven väth, karotte, laurent garnier, jimpster,…. >grand cru< is a term used in the wine business and normally denominates a special wine, which is made from the best grapes of both one wine-producing area and one vintage. the stylistic diversities featured on this compilation arent less refined and versatile. at the same time this compilation boasts of a representative selection of artists who already released on connaisseur as well as up-andcoming new members of our artist pool. this selection is the beginning of a periodical series which will be released on a yearly basis. apart from afrilounge coming along with an elegantly lowered house groove, another artist who has already released on connaisseur, surely jochen trappe will be setting the benchmark with his glitch-rock-tech track. there are more familiar faces to be encountered – for example daso teaming up with his ingenious partner pawas. they both make even the most lame couch potato taste their own very special beaujolais and freak out on the dancefloor - blood , sweat and tears!

steve bug - innovator, minimal dance connoisseur, tech house master - though he s been given many prestigious titles, if theres one quality that can be best attributed to steve bug, it would be modesty. its a trait that has followed him throughout his illustrious career, from his early days as a child building guitars out of cardboard, to his early lessons in percussion at school to his beginnings as a mixtape dj to his first productions. despite the fact that hes now largely regarded as one of the founding fathers of minimal - creating his >da minimal funk< compilation over 10 years ago - and one of the most sought-after 4/4 djs booked today, bug remains truly humble when reflecting on the majestic rise from his beginnings as a dancefloor-dwelling clubber in bremen, germany to ruling his renowned dessous/poker flat empire in berlin.
