Track 3 returns to the dynamically processed elements of the title track, Romanian minimal maestro and Moment Records Boss Barac sweeps us into a twelve-minute rushing tide of organic drums and swaying subs.

Uncanny label from Juliche Hernandez present his first vinyl only release.

Minimal Wave present an album of long lost tracks by Dutch electronic music pioneer Das Ding, entitled 'Missing Tapes'.

Danny Bosten formed Das Ding as a solo project in the early 1980s and released his music and friends' music via his own cassette label called Tear Apart Tapes. At the time, he was studying graphic design at art school, and in turn he ended up designing the artwork, cassette-sleeves and illustrations for the label himself. Meanwhile, he recorded his own music as Das Ding. Powerful dark electro, he made several addictive and danceable tracks which later become Minimal Wave hits. Danny made all his music in his bedroom which essentially turned into a small recording studio. He went on to release many of his own tapes and also played some live gigs.

Old tapes were uncovered around 2010, and Minimal Wave released a remastered version of 'H.S.T.A.' and select other tracks. A wave of renewed interest followed the record's release and soon people were in touch to propose live shows. Twenty years later, and after some deliberation, Das Ding was reincarnated under its old moniker but now with a revised line-up and a working set-up that reflected inevitable technological change.

Recently, Danny came across further tape archives from those early days. And from the batch, we selected our favorites to present to you in vinyl release form. 'Missing Tapes' is a limited edition LP pressed on 180 gram creamy yellow vinyl, and housed in a heavy weight printed glossy black and white sleeve featuring one of Danny's original illustrations from 1982.

Following up the Ambivalent album from Satoshi earlier this year, these mix out sessions feature Soichi Terada and Kuniyuki on edit and remix duties.

"Coastlines" is reconstructed by Soichi Terada as a house track in his recognizable style, expanding the positive and light dance music appeal of the original. Kuniyuki made two new versions of the track "After New Dawn". Version 1 is a beat-down version that melds the ambience and beautiful melody of Kuniyuki's view of the world, while Version 2, with its percussion, piano, and dubby guitar, will fill up your lacrimal glands...

Vinyl only.

Dot is hailing from Israel which lately has been seeing quite a bit of spotlight for its burgeoning house and techno scene. However, Dot’s music on this ep is no big room, anthemic number, but rather a slow moving, deep, hypnotic drive through the desert, at sun set.

Lescale Recordings proudly presents its second vinyl release, ‘Bonus Track’ by HDZ, a brand-new project from the iconic DJ and producer Javier Carballo (Underyourseat - Serialism) and his partner in crime Aniano. The A-side journey begins with title track’s crunchy drums laying down steady and fresh grooves whilst a stunning sound design and ethereal hooks soar above. Up next, label-head Ramona Yacef teams up with the Italian trio Eliptica (Howl Records), the new project of the sound engineer Antonio Valente and his fellows Andrea Bruno & Rikha, delivering a power breakbeat blended remix with a yearning outer space melody, making the universe levitate and hold hands. On the B-side, HDZ digs in a dance floor territory with ‘Back to Dance’, an exciting rhythm combined with spacey synth, heavy basslines and hard-hitting groovy beats defining a sophisticated texture. Closing the set, ‘TR2’ is a breakbeat cut, with pulsing sequence opening, showing a hint of secrecy. Classy pads provide the foundation for the drums and the housy sounding pulses, layered over a bouncy electronic percussion and subtle vocal effects.

We proudly present the prodigious musician and talented producer Lee Burton brings us this amazing piece, full of strong groovy lines and vocals, and misterious atmospheres, 2 tracks cutted 45 rpm on his own personal touch. As always, vinyl only.

Australian talent Retza makes a welcome return to YokoO’s recently-launched Satya label this October with the Feel EP. The four-tracker marks the imprint’s second release of the year, after the Basics VA in April.

“We are proud to invite a core family member for a full solo release. The soft bearded artist brings a touch of class with a futuristic edge to the developing catalogue of the label. Deep house at its finest, this is the sound of Retza.” - Satya.

Waiting To Go leads the charge, taking the form of a stripped-back minimal number packed full of looping percussion and whispering hats. Nene soon arrives, as dubby tones and gentle drum patterns create a cosmic feel throughout, before Hip ups the tempo courtesy of a chunky, groove-led bassline. Feel (Sometimes) completes proceedings, bringing the celestial journey to a jovial close thanks to ethereal synth solos and shimmering, dream-like chimes.

Hailing from Melbourne, Retza is a producer and DJ who has the underground heads listening, following his every move. With a multitude of releases on labels such as All Day I Dream and Get Physical Music, Retza has gained support from the underground DJ elite including Kasey Taylor, Lee Burridge, Uone, Jamie Stevens, YokoO, Steve Ward and many more besides.

The compilation "Get Together" enters a new round and gathers four artists to take a journey into electronic music together again. Maxie König opens the gathering with warm basses and sparkling
chords in her track "TenTen".

The unmistakable groove immediately carries us away and drives us straight onto the dance floor, where the no less deep track "Dezest" by Dip resounds through the speakers. Here we float on the smooth strings of the recurring sound waves, which one can hardly resist. Ana Antonova takes up this beautiful flow in her fascinating track "Naked Neighbour" and adds jazzy melodic elements that are interwoven with original sounds to create a fabulous, versatile sound story.

Finally, Cie picks up the bass and groove again and reflects the wonderful atmosphere of this gathering with the harmonic strings in "Haus Im Turm", making you want to put this record on „again“ and „again“.

After a long hibernation, MUZI cartel is back from the jungle, smuggling another series of gems your way, MUZI004. For their fourth instalment, they went to Southern Europe’s Portugal region, presenting you the “Realm EP” by Rowan & Gear, including a remix by Romanian public treasure Cosmjn. Let’s dive straight into Realm, the title song, carrying a smooth buildup working towards that moving groove, just with the right amount of stabs to make this a certified addition to your record collection. Moving on to “Basic Human Relation”, we have this tease making you wonder what’s coming further on. When the break hits, spacial sounds layered onto each other gives us feelings of hope and standing on a beach without worries. To top things off, we have Cosmjn’s take on the title track. “Realm (Cosmjn remix)” is a 9-minutes showcase on how a consistent bassline complementing even more consistent drums never disappoints. Warm yet subtle stabs carry you easily across the spectrum.

For our next vinyl only release we welcome back to the label Venezuelan born and Berlin based artist Matheiu. The release features two original heady groovers with flare and charisma. On remix duties, Nick Beringer steps up and delivers a classy groove showcasing his sound. The second remix is from Denis Kaznacheev with a funky deep modular jam.

AdMaiora Music is back full-on force after almost a year hiatus with his biggest release to date. No one other than Cadenza co-founder Quenum lands on the label with 'Bolero Soul' EP, bringing into play extraordinary studio wizards DeWalta and Cristi Cons, who are entrusted on the remix duties. 
 Title cut 'Bolero Soul' opens proceedings in a percussive-trippy fashion as tight drums meet gloomy analogue low hefty rumbles. Over its 14 minutes ride, the track constantly moves by offering tribal-chants, sinister atmospheres and pressing shakers in a swirl of madness. 
 On the flip, Meander head honcho DeWalta welcomes us into his realm made of poignant synths and evocative, almost ancestral, vocal-pads. The grim mood of the original is still present, with the inward-looking motion translated by a descent, relentless breakbeat groove. 
 The entitled 'Mystic Full Moon' is yet another minimal-tunnel piece with Quenum able to make another brilliant use of hypnotic percussions and twisted sounds both free to move over edgy kicks and a lean, crisp groove. 
 Rounding off the package, Romanian maestro Cristi Cons delivers two different versions. On the first one, delicate mystic synths lead the listener to a mesmerizing break before swingy drums and a bouncy bassline bring back up the track, whilst on the Sunrise mix, which is >>VINYL ONLY<<, gritty low-end frequencies and delicate rhythmic toms are mixed together with futuristic arps and synths, making of this one the next after-hours anthem.

It’s common knowledge that KOMPAKT’s TOTAL series serves as our yearbook, a musical wrap up of the past 12 months. Therefore it doesn’t come as a surprise that this year’s edition is informed by another pandemic year, where dancefloors were still mostly deserted and the devastating developments in Eastern Europe. Kompakt’s A&R team still kept on foot on the imaginary dancefloor, while scouting different realms apart from the big room euphoria. Anyway, brain dance has always been a key ingredient to our catalogue.

The Voigt brothers are opening this years vinyl edition in an unusually romantic fashion. ‘Why’ combines a bubbly FM bassline with lush washes of looped guitars. High off the (presumably high) heels of her recent album ‘Jesus Was An Alien’ she delivers a spanking new excursion into her sonic world, ‘The Hill’. Our Mexican friend Rebolledo makes his first ever solo appearance on TOTAL with his trademark hypnotic desert sound. Jürgen Paape is calling a spade a spade with ‘Le Monde À Changé’ – The world has changed indeed. Our prodigal son, Matias Aguayo, returns to the mothership with ‘Cinco Y Rojo’. An exercise in Chicago-esque groove theory paired with a cheeky visitor from Denmark. Spot the reference and win a pair of hooves. It’s hard to find a quality party around Cologne without Jonathan Kaspar on its bill. Rightly so, as he continues to hone his craft as an impeccable DJ and producer. Michael gives the tremendously talented Danish singer songwriter eee gee a proper Mayer treatment and Kompakt founding member Jörg Burger closes off the festivities with a groovy midtempo chugger that reminisces ‘Blue Lines’ era Massive Attack as much as the late Andy Weatheralls low slung psychedelia.

Es ist allgemein bekannt, dass die TOTAL Reihe eine jährliche Positionsbestimmung des Kölner Labels KOMPAKT darstellt und der Jahrbuch-hafte Charakter war ja auch immer beabsichtigt. So wundert es wenig, dass man TOTAL 22 die Irrungen und Wirrungen des zweiten pandemischen Jahres 2022 deutlich anhört. Die A&R Abteilung des Labels hatte zwar – trotz geschlossener Clubs – weiter mindestens einen Fuss auf dem imaginären Tanzboden, aber man spürt, dass es ein eher verhaltener Jahrgang geworden ist. Dance Tracks brauchen einen entsprechenden Resonanzraum – und der war zumindest bis zur Deadline dieser Platte kaum gegeben. Aber Kopfdisco gehörte schon immer zum kompakten Repertoire. Letztlich entsteht in diesem vom Big Room los gekoppelten Bereich meist die interessanteste Musik.

Die Gebrüder Voigt eröffnen TOTAL 22 auf einer unerwartet romantischen Note. Quirlige FM Bässe schmiegen sich an verhuschte Gitarrenloops, so dass es eine wahre Freude ist. Perel hat gerade ihr fulminantes Album “Jesus Was An Alien” abgeliefert und spurtet bereits mit Siebenmeilenstiefeln (oder vielleicht auch Pumps?) zum nächsten Ziel: ‘The Hills’. Unser mexikanischer Freund Rebolledo ist erstmals solo auf einer TOTAL zu finden und beschwört mit ‘The Sharper Image’ seinen hypnotischen Prärie Sound herauf. Jürgen Paape nennt das Kind direkt beim Namen: Le monde a changé… Die Welt hat sich verändert – ein Kommentar zum Zeitgeschehen, der keiner Erklärung bedarf. Nach längerer Abstinenz hat Matias Aguayo wieder am Mutterschiff angedockt. ‘Cinco Y Rojo’ ist ein Lehrstück in Sachen Chicago-esquen Grooves, kombiniert mit einem frechen Besucher aus dem Dänemark der 80er. Findet die Referenz und gewinnt ein paar nagelneuer Hufen. Es ist derzeit schwer eine qualitativ hochwertige Party im Rheinland zu finden, auf der Jonathan Kaspar nicht spielt. Zurecht, denn er schärft seine Skills als DJ und Produzent wie ein Sushi Chef sein Messer. Michael Mayer dreht die überaus talentierte Singer Songwriterin eee gee auf links und überlässt seinem Weggefährten Jörg Burger das letzte Wort. "Crawling Up That Hill’ ist ein slicker Midtempo Groover, der in seiner behutsamen Psychedelik irgendwo zwischen Massive Attack in der ‘Blue Lines’ Epoche und Andy Weatherall changiert.
