re-release! you thought it was a joke when we released a record named after colognes local beer, kÖlsch. but you were wrong. rune riley kölsch is not a joke. he is a tall danish guy and its quite likely that you have already heard some of his tracks out in a club. maybe something from his amazing ink & needle series on his own tattoo imprint or the track he is most known for: calabria feat. crystal waters. after his impressive debut on kompakt extra >loreley/rheingold< he is back with another killer double header. >opa< is one of the most unusual but yet amazingly effective techno tracks we have heard this year. its steroid-driven funk with a heavily mental edge and powerful enough to lift the roof of any club. >der alte< pays tribute to germanys long running tv series the old man with a rather juvenile sounding piano anthem that sits comfortably between balearic disco and detroit techno. prost, mr kölsch!
