!k7 are pleased to announce forest swords as the next curator of the ever essential dj-kicks series. following acclaimed albums on ninja tune and tri angle, soundtrack and installation work, and remixes of the likes of bjork, matthew barnes aka forest swords has curated a 25-track compilation that draws a line between past inspirations and his current peers. like much of his own output, his dj-kicks skirts around pristine electronics and embraces more organic textures: 80s post punk (anna domino, dead can dance), classic 90s british electronica (orbital, mira calix), and smokey digi-dub (rhythm & sound), all rub up alongside some of the most forward-facing producers working today (demdike stare, laurel halo, fis). the compilation sifts through rhythms, shifting speeds and emotions: from pop icon neneh cherrys primal thudding to the zombified throb of exclusive forest swords track crow via deena abdelwaheedÕs clattering deconstructions to the euphoric two-step of djrum. its a collection of tracks that feels as restlessly curious and weighty as barnes own work.

zip ist nicht nur eine der umtriebigsten persšnlichkeiten der hiesigen house/techno-szene, sondern auch eines ihrer grš§ten rŠtsel. er scheut das rampenlicht, ist aber in allen bereichen elektronischer clubmusik allgegenwŠrtig: 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 legendŠren 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 ŸberfŸhrt. das ergebnis ist so einzigartig wie schillernd und mit sicherheit eine weiterer meilenstein dieser kultigen ausnahmeserie.
