ein tempel ist ein ort der ruhe und mediation. ein ort an dem man sich selbst finden kann und seinen geist reinigt. im rastafari glauben ist dies kein besonderer ort oder gebäude sondern der eigene körper. es benötigt keiner institution oder eines monuments, um sich selbst und dem göttlichen näher zu sein. folglich ist jeder tempel individuell und jedes individuum ein tempel. auf 20 beats erzählt c-ras über seine spirituelle reise zu sich selbst und erlaubt den zuhörern einen einblick in seinen tempel. der junge münchner entdeckte den rastafari glauben während seiner zahllosen reisen in das land seines vaters, der karibikinsel barbados. c-ras ist bereits seit längerem in der münchner szene mit seiner band greenery force aktiv. mit seinen zwei soloalben bei keller flavour -the high and mighty- und -concept of madness- etablierte er sich als veritabler hiphop produzent.

ones medusa ist nach der farska lp bereits die zweite zusammenarbeit zwischen dem jungen münchner hiphop produzenten und dem jungen münchner label beat art department und erscheint in kooperation mit dem renommierten hiphop label 58beats, dem label der band main concept. ein 44 minuten starkes instrumental-album inklusive eines akere vocal-features. es ist ansichtssache, ob ein antlitz unfassbar schön oder besonders verstörend sein kann, sodass der bloße anblick den betrachter seiner handlungsfähigkeit beraubt. man sollte sich jedoch nie einzig von einer erscheinung erstarren lassen

jonny whites art department returns this march with his first solo ep in nearly 3 years, the first of a string of releases planned for 2018. the record features three inventive new tracks, including one produced in association with new york house pioneer toddy terry and vocalist roland clark. in no uncertain terms, this package re-asserts art department as one of contemporary house musics most essential voices.

die zweite runde von remixen zu dem selbst betitelten album von urbs ist eine fesselnde zusammenstellung von zeitlosen hiphop sowie downtempo nummern. marc mac: gibt es zu dieser person etwa noch was zu sagen? als teil des uk duos 4hero hat er musikgeschichte geschrieben und sein visioneers projekt setzte neue standards in sachen organischem hiphop. sein remix zu get wid it featuring tyna aus neuseeland, besitzt alles, was man sich von diesem musikgenie erwartet. ein souliges, harmonisches meisterwerk, welches auch auf einem seiner legendären visioneers alben hätte veröffentlicht werden können. peter kruder hat als teil von kruder & dorfmeister sowie mit seinem projekt peace orchestra musikgeschichte geschrieben. sein remix zu happy days feat. bagi und sarah ann ist eine reise zurück zu seinen musikalischen wurzeln, welche ihn berühmt gemacht haben eine relaxte downtempo-nummer. der remix weckt erinnerungen an die zeit, als seine musik millionen von menschen berührte.

musar is honoured to revive the electronic-synth legend, manasyt, with a new five-track ep as part of a three-ep series. including a pair of remixes by brooklyns wonder girl via app and wax stag, an occasional collaborator with bibio and clark.

die -contact- ep von produzent hans hu$tle und sängerin tahnee matthiesen ist ein atmosphärisches, dunkles und intimes werk. stark inspiriert von größen wie portishead oder darkside, erschaffen die beiden münchner psychedelische klangwelten, die durch fokussierte arrangements zu abwechslungsreichen songs geformt werden. zerbrechliche, hauchzarte stimmen stehen im wechsel mit schweren bässen und scheppernden drums.

it has been eleven long years since urbs dropped his last album which was called “toujours le meme film”. back then, the musician, dj and producer created the soundtrack to a fictitious film noir, which was released on kruder & dorfmeister‘s g-stone label, but after touring europe he almost completely retreated from public life. he does not consider his creativity as being his career, but rather as a part of his life which rarely is subject to concrete planning, and that is why urbs quite consciously took his time to create his latest –untitledalbum.

l one ist ein junger münchner hiphop beatbastler und drumcomputer-liebhaber. mit nur 24 jahren hat er bereits eine beachtliche diskographie als produzent vorzuweisen. darunter die projekte der rap-crews atp “c’est la vie oder was?” (2016 auf bumm clack) sowie weltuntergäng’s “dogmatikers elfen” (2014 auf tieftonkultur) entspringen seiner mpc bzw. seiner sp1200 und haben für aufsehen in der münchner rapszene gesorgt. als teil von akere oder manufaktur wagte er sich in vergangenen jahren auch in neue genres und lieferte neue ansätze zu triphop und dubstep ab.
auf der “farska lp verarbeitet l one seine impressionen seiner kroatienurlaube 2015 und 2016. jeden tag ist hier ein stück am strand mit nur einer mpc60 entstanden, welches entweder die mahlzeit (2015) oder das getränk (2016) des abendessens des vorabends im titel trägt.
