finally repressed

Wir wissen wirklich nicht, was alles im dänischen Trinkwasser landet, doch irgendetwas muß verantwortlich sein für den reißenden Talentstrom, der diesem Land entspringt. Man denke an WhoMadeWho, Jatoma, When Saints Go Machine oder Kenton Slash Demon: sie alle teilen einen ähnlichen Sinn für strukturale Komplexität, erlebbar gemacht durch Emotion und puren Willen zum Floor. Diese Leute haben ihre Scheren im Kopf schließlich schon vor längerer Zeit im Altmetall entsorgt und lassen nun umso befreiter die Hookline kreisen. Tatsächlich gehören zwei der oben genannten Acts bereits zur Kompakt-Familie, die anderen beiden sind Klassiker der täglichen Bürobeschallungsmaßnahmen, da war es nur
eine Frage der Zeit, bis wir die nächste Trüffel im skandinavischen Unterholz aufspüren. Womit wir zu Taragana Pyjarama kommen, dessen Output als gleichermaßen raffiniert wie chaotisch wahrgenommen und von manchen schlicht als Märchen mit Bass beschrieben wird.

Cannibald Do you remember something about an LP of the 90s signed by Leo Anibaldi Yes! it's the label of Leo Anibaldi. Until three years ago his releases were on vinyl. Then he continued in digital format until now. Now it's time to release again a special vinyl!

Im Frühling 2012 kehren WALLS zurück, mit eigener UK-Tour und - Coracle Remixed', einer Sammlung ausgewählter Remixe von einigen der besten Elektronik-Tüftler zur Zeit, u.a. John Tejada, Holy Other, Perc und Voigt & Voigt.
WALLS' - Coracle' traf auf eine bereits durch das selbstbetitelte Debüt-Album bestens eingestimmte Hörerschaft und erzielte wie jenes einen Platz auf der alljährlichen Album-Bestenliste von Mojo, begleitet von einer Flut begeisterter Print- und Online-Reviews (Highlights siehe unten). Das Duo hat seine gefeierten, nur mit Hardware gespielten Live-Shows bereits als Support-Act für Battles und zusammen mit Labelkollegen The Field durch Europa und Amerika getragen, doch jetzt wird es Zeit für eine eigene UK/EU-Tour (Daten untenstehend) um das neue Album angemessen zu präsentieren.

In its own way, Speicher on Kompakt Extra has always been one of the most uncompromising series in the Kompakt universe. Starting out as a mere compilation series to tie up some loose ends from our regulars, it has since become a guarantee for vanguard dance sounds from all over the planet, with Kompakt being able to invite and support electronic artists that comfortably inhabit both the delicate and the more deliberate ends of the electronic music spectrum. That's also where we found the highly versatile Sei A, native Glaswegian, now residing in London and immersing himself in the hybrid house, firm techno and bass-heavy scenes that happily co-exist within UK's capital.

Streng limitierte Veröffentlichung der legendären 12Inch Maxi-Single (GRED8) von 1978 als EP mit zwei weiteren Versionen des Rasta Anthem 'Bloody Eyes'! - Weltweit limitiert auf 750 Kopien. Diese EP erscheint in Koordination mit der Veröffentlichung der 2CD Deluxe Edition 'Rasta Communication'

It's no secret that Kompakt pioneers Wolfgang Voigt and Jörg Burger have
maintained a long and steady friendship outside the studio. It's even
detectable if you give a critical listen to their collaborative sound, where
almost like magic, the distinct musical swagger of each artist synchronises
completely with the other. There's Wolfgang Voigt, a confirmed radical, a
stalwart, analytical, mindbombing sensualist who famously transformed
Techno into a state of matter and lifted the Art Brut club canvas. His
material spans from Mike Ink and Gas to Protest or Kafkatrax, and within
this contrast-rich portfolio, each new oeuvre transports the serial anarchy
which is the artist's trademark.

Oh Holy Molar is the second album from UK trio Felix. The group produces a bewitching, minimal chamber pop that works as the perfect framework for singer/songwriter Lucinda Chua's oblique and emotionally immediate stories of superstition and searching for protection against bad omens.
*As a follow up to their debut You Are The One I Pick, the band return with a collection of songs with a sound stripped back to its very core. Something is said to have "teeth" when it has the ability to make an impact. This record certainly has "teeth", and sharp ones at that.
*" The album was recorded in a vast, spooky 1940s cinema in Nottingham, England, now converted into a studio. After recording was completed the band discovered that underneath the live room lay an abandoned Dental Laboratory. "Oh Holy Molar" indeed.
*" Since the release of the rst Felix album, pianist/vocalist Lucinda Chua, also an accomplished photographer, has been working on a number of projects, most recently with Wallpaper* in Detroit. Guitarist Chris Summerlin has been recording and touring with his new band Kogumaza. The group is completed with the recent addition of drummer Neil Turpin who, when not performing with Felix, can also be found touring the world with French composer Yann Tiersen.
press quotes for You Are the One I Pick
'It's a gateway into another headspace, one aglow with uncertain magic. As statements of romantic intent go, 'Death To Everyone But Us' must represent either the most  straightforward, honest distillation of the love song, or the creepiest.' BBC
'In Felix's world, everyday mundanities give rise to furtive explorations of human interaction and ineptitude in a manner as oppressive as it is oddly and honestly addictive.' Drowned in Sound
'The duo keep things refreshingly simple, with single strands of piano, guitar, and cello in quiet symmetry, leaving the listener ample room to savor Felix's knotty, enigmatic songcraft.' Pitchfork
'There is mystery and elegance in the marrow of this music, and I imagine this record will prove to stand the test of time, reserved to be pulled out for the perfect accompaniment to just the right brooding but whimsical mood.' Delusions of Adequacy

The kids are alright: still lacking any concern for the rules of electronic dance music, London's Krautpop duo Walls continue their voyage to distant planets, hovering over alien continents and gazing at the radiant beauty of another world's sunset.

Edward O’Sullivan Lee “but my friends call me Bunny or Striker Lee” was born in Kingston, Jamaica on 23rd August 1941. He started in the music business plugging records for Duke Reid at Treasure Isle, Coxsone Dodd at Studio One and Leslie Kong at Beverley’s. “I used to do plugging… when I say plugging I used to get their records played on ‘Teenage Dance Party’ and we’d dance so if you had a record to plug you’d put it on and dance to it and show the latest moves”.

It's with the arrival of Looping State Of Mind that you finally realise that, for The Field's ambient techno explorer Axel Willner, the loop never stops. While fans and critics alike point to 2007's phenomenal debut From Here We Go Sublime - included in Pitchfork's Top 100 albums of the 2000s - and 2009's equally stirring follow up Yesterday & Today as standalone points of the Swede's music; it becomes clear that they appear as mere snapshots of what, for the producer, is a continual cycle of revolutions.

Noir Music comes up again with a deep & funky piece from Kolombo (Azuli, Kittball, BluFin, SK Supreme) combined with a hot remix pack by Daniel Bortz (Suol, Be Chosen, Souvenir Music),
Downtown Party Network ( Eskimo, Loud East, Bear Funk) and Fusty Delights (Different, Wall Of Sound). Soulful Deep House Music as its best.

We welcome David Jach (Deich Records, Kol Mojito, Mangue Records) - DJ
and Promoter from Dresden, Germany on Cometomusic. After delivering a hot remix for Raumakustik´s 'Glaub Mir Doch' David presents a great melodic and charming Original with two massive remixes - a straight one by Minimal Lounge (Damm Records, Rennbahn, 040 Recordings) and a house remix by Timo Jahns (9Volt, Freundchen, Klang Gymnastik)

What a year 2010 was for Walls.. not content with signing to the prestigious Kompakt label, the shimmering shoegaze electronica of their debut self titled album went on to receive glowing critical acclaim including Mojo's coveted Electronic Album Of The Year (beating out Caribou, Matthew Dear and LCD Soundsystem no less), 4/5 in The Guardian, 9/10 in NME (as well as featuring in their albums of the year), iDJ, Vice and more superlatives from Groove, DJ mag and a host of blogs and websites.

TERRANOVA are hardly a new name on the scene. FETISCH, its
leader has lived on the international nightlife circuit since punk took
over London.

Rainbow Arabia have been one Kompakt's most endearing acts to
work with us in years. The husband and wife duo Danny and
Tiffany Preston started our year out with the genre-defying full
length 'Boys And Diamonds' which went on to become one our
most acclaimed releases of recent time - the Los Angeles Times
went so far as to proclaim 'Rainbow Arabia are L.A.'s new electro
heroes' in a recent feature.

2024 Repress
Following the legendary first two, stoically super minimal records “SOG 1“ and “SOG 2“ that provide ecstasy disguised as boredom on Kompakt Extra/Speicher in 2007, and the outstanding beautifully bizarre “SOG - Abweichung“ on Profan in 2010, we are now listening to “FREMDE HÄNDE“. Like its predecessors, this SOG stands in the tradition of „The Art of Omission“ with Wolfgang Voigt variegating his preference for the bluntly straightforward quaver bass in two different forms. The A-side contains a tonally noncommittal sequence ambling across the keyboard in quantised form, reminiscing of the arpeggiator (accompaniment function) function of early 70ies' and 80ies' synthesizers. On the B-side, daring and thoroughly unquantised quaver rhythms rock around a bass drum that, as the only straight element, tries to keep the whole thing together. The result sounds a little like a delirious Can Live.

Nach den legendären ersten beiden stoisch-superminimalen, als Langeweile getarnten Ekstase-Platten “SOG 1“ und “SOG 2“ auf Kompakt Extra/Speicher in 2007 und der überaus skurril-schönen “SOG - Abweichung“ auf Profan in 2010, hören wir nun “FREMDE HÄNDE“. Auch diese SOG steht natürlich ganz in der Tradition der “Kunst des Weglassens“. Wolfgang Voigt variiert hier seine Vorliebe für den stumpf-geraden Achtelbass auf zwei verschiedene Weisen. Auf der A-Seite haben wir eine tonal unverbindlich über die Tastatur wandernde Sequenz in quantisierter Form, die an die Arpeggiator (Begleitautomatik) Funktion früher 70er und 80er Jahre Syntheziser erinnert. Auf der B-Seite kreist die Achtel-Rhythmik in eher rockigem Sound ganz und gar unquantisiert und rhythmisch gewagt um die Bassdrum, die das Ganze als einzig gerades Element versucht zusammen zu halten. Das klingt ein bisschen wie Can live im Vollrausch.

Martinez, our man from Copenhagen, saw great success last year with his album "The Paradigm Shift" and with his tight, rolling-house sound becoming a distinctive trademark.It's taken almost a year to collect all the remixes of "The Paradigm Shift", but it has most definitely been worth the wait. Moon Harbour boss Matthias Tanzmann has rounded up an illustrious group of remixers, including the winner of a very successful remix contest done in collaboration with Juno Download.

"Sirimande/Feed My Meatmachine" kommt mit zwei CD-only Albumtunes plus zwei brandneuen Bonus Tracks. War "Feromonikon/Signal" der Appetitanreger, so ist die neue 12" das Dessert, trickreicher & fordernder als der Vorgänger.

Averse to any easy classification, Rainbow Arabia's continent-trekking, kaleidoscope pop is rooted in no particular time or place, employing modern technological processes to an array of musical cultures and eras.

Welcome Matt O'Brien on Curle for his first full EP on a label other than his own Off-key Industries

Each groove is created by Steve externally with the Korg Electribe sx and processed with analog valves. The groove packages downloaded from the internet, are currently killing the true underground music. For this reason Steve don't use preset sounds in the tracks.

Jatoma are all about the unknown and though they are new amongst us they remain cloaked in paradoxes and already questioned by many.
