I always imagined that Ada mix (it is a cover of the smiths track but sounds nothing like it) to be on the next DJ mix by Erlend Oye, complete with mumbling acapella singing/speaking on the top.

― Michael F Gill, Monday, 26 March 2007 23:27 (nineteen years ago)

The new Reinhard Voigt is surprisingly mid-tempo and melodic - not uffy, but it's very Kompakt as opposed to Speicher, which even Voigt's releases on Kompakt-proper have tended to sound like. I need to listen to it more though.

― Tim F, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 00:09 (nineteen years ago)

Reinhart Voigt-like badness

if badness = badassness, i am ordering my copy NOW

― fies, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 00:12 (nineteen years ago)

I meant to say fluffy by the way. Now it looks like i'm talking about Uffie.

― Tim F, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 00:14 (nineteen years ago)

Eek, the newest Get Physical 12" is called "Meat Is Murder!"

― Michael F Gill, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 18:33 (nineteen years ago)

― lex pretend, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

god i'm so glad i like other genres. i know for damn sure none of my r&b girls would pull this shit on me.

― lex pretend, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 18:35 (nineteen years ago)

Who's on that GP 12"? This is all kinda like Timbaland working with Fall Out Boy and the Hives isnt' it?

― matt2, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

mary j blige duetting with bono :(

― lex pretend, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 18:43 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, that was particularly sad.

― matt2, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 19:02 (nineteen years ago)

Don't worry "Meat Is Murder" is standard (in a good way) Get Physical fare. One of the tracks is called "Freebasing @ Robert Johnson" if that makes people feel better.

― Tim F, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 23:41 (nineteen years ago)

I thought it was kinda crappy....they are increasingly middlebrow...

The new Sebo K and Metro is good though.

― Ronan, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 23:42 (nineteen years ago)

How more middlebrow than, say, the first Einzelkeind, or, like all of the label's late 04/early 05 output? Or do you just mean more familiar and less standout-ish?

― Tim F, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 23:44 (nineteen years ago)

I actually like the "Bonus Beats" track best on the MIM 12". I'm digging all the Kindisch releases so far though.

― Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 00:34 (nineteen years ago)

Well...the first Einzelkind on Kindisch was sort of new, when it came out, and one side was really good I thought. Even the last Einzelkind on Kindisch was a lot better than MIM imo, tho having played it once I realised I didn't really like it when listening back. I just don't think they're pulling off this real house thing too well, seems kinda forced.

I guess I mean both middlebrow compared to past releases where you'd think "this stands out", and more familiar. They're not really blazing a trail with recent releases. I know this is completely unfounded suggestion/speculation, but does anyone feel DJ T may be running things at the moment? All this faithful rendition of true house music, etc etc. I wish M.A.N.D.Y. would release a single or at least come back and sign some people (if they haven't been already)

Though despite being on this same retro tip the Sebo K and Metro's single is very good, more bleepy and Craig-esque.

― Ronan, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:16 (nineteen years ago)

SuperMayer album in September!

― lou, Friday, 6 April 2007 11:53 (nineteen years ago)

The Fehlmann album is pretty great, more consistent than Visions of Blah. Prety much everything is in the Little Big Horn/Emo Pack style. It's like listening to house music at the bottom of a swamp.

― Tim F, Friday, 6 April 2007 23:24 (nineteen years ago)

Where did this whole Fehlmann & Gut Ocean Club/I Wanna Be A Little Fishy/"house music at the bottom of a swamp" aesthetic come from??

Listening to Drexciya on ecstasy? Kinda intrigues.

― fandango, Friday, 6 April 2007 23:42 (nineteen years ago)

The funny thing is that when I saw Isolee live back in 2001 he was a lot like this, although he rarely is on record. There are some similarities between the two though - Fehlmann's (excellent) track on Total 6 was very Isolee-ish.

I think it's a bit of a Basic Channel/Chain Reaction vibe - particularly the Porter Ricks albums.

― Tim F, Saturday, 7 April 2007 08:17 (nineteen years ago)

Very cool that there's another Paape 12 at the end of the month. Hopefully he's back in recording mode now...

― Michael F Gill, Saturday, 7 April 2007 13:46 (nineteen years ago)

tim f--which fehlmann lp are you referring to above?

― nerve_pylon, Saturday, 7 April 2007 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

The new one forthcoming on Kompakt - Honingpumpe

― Tim F, Saturday, 7 April 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

"Honey Pump"

― Andy K, Saturday, 7 April 2007 14:53 (nineteen years ago)

SuperMayer album in September!
-- lou, Friday, 6 April 2007 11:53 (Yesterday)

Kuhl! Didn't know they were working on one. Got any more info on that?

― willem, Saturday, 7 April 2007 17:36 (nineteen years ago)

Nope, unfortunately. There was a mention of it in the recently updated News section of Kompakt's MySpace page, but that's all as far as I know.

― lou, Monday, 9 April 2007 12:35 (nineteen years ago)

likelihood of belle and sebastian cover surely high

― Ronan, Monday, 9 April 2007 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

(Ronan: I tease. I do understand your point...)

― lou, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 11:55 (nineteen years ago)

no no, fair point! :)

― Ronan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 12:22 (nineteen years ago)

The new Trackheadz EP has a track called "Kompakt," which amusingly is a schaffel cut.

― Michael F Gill, Saturday, 14 April 2007 06:56 (nineteen years ago)

one month passes...

i got the new jurgen paape today, it's really good. tim finney, did you know that andy van has remixed his track from total 7 for a local release?? melbourne electrohouse cottage industry never ceases to amaze.

― haitch, Wednesday, 16 May 2007 17:03 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah I saw "Take That" on the Aria club charts and was like "?????", but yeah it makes sense when you think about it. When Michael Mayer played here he put on "Take That" and for the first time I realised how much of an anthem it is.

I really should be more sympathetic to the melbourne electrohouse cottage industry than i am.

― Tim F, Wednesday, 16 May 2007 23:07 (nineteen years ago)

loving a couple of recent releases: Goatee, the b-side to the Rice Twins 12", and the Stardiver Speicher 48, Another Moment of Silence. I love the way the bass starts that track.

― jergïns, Thursday, 17 May 2007 14:09 (nineteen years ago)

anyone recommend any mixes from the modernist, aside from his collectors series vol 1 ?

also, is the lawrence mix-cd that was free with groove magazine available online anywhere?

thanks

Has anyone else been catching the awesome Kompakt-u-mentary that KFJC (SF Bay Area & Netcast) has been doing the past week-and-a-half in 3 parts, 11 hours total? It's been fantastic, Goodwrench knows his shit (not surprising, he was spinning techno on the radio when I was still collecting cassettes).

Tonight (may 18) is the third installment at 10pm Pacific time.

Here's my writeup, before the fact. I'm thinking of trying to get the podcasts.
Playlist 1
Playlist 2
Playlist 3 - tonight!

― DJ Logan5, Friday, 18 May 2007 22:51 (nineteen years ago)

this is funny. i live a few miles away from KFJC, and i can't imagine a more disconnected listening populace for this kind of programming.

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 18 May 2007 23:04 (nineteen years ago)

You'd be surprised, that little old 110 watts on black mountain reaches everywhere from Richmond to South San Jose, basically an effective population radius of 2 million (sadly, most of SF is not line-of-sight). I played many a graveyard and evening shift on KFJC when I lived there and was constantly amazed at the number of bay area freaks (and I use the term lovingly) who are literally down for whatever - drones, electro, out jazz, dub, punk, psych, LOTS of psych...

― DJ Logan5, Friday, 18 May 2007 23:17 (nineteen years ago)

sorry, i just moved here (palo alto) around 2 years ago and i can't say i'm crazy about the music scene ... the east bay wasn't great either but this is just DULLSVILLE ...

― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 18 May 2007 23:34 (nineteen years ago)

Every once in a loooooong while there'll be something interesting at the Palo Alto Community Center... saw Negativeland there a few years back. Keep your eyes open for KFJC live performances either at the college or the once-yearly listener appreciation party at a bowling alley. Imagine, Japanese psych bands, hip hop MC's, and an experimental accordion ensemble and a techno DJ set at 3 in the afternoon while you roll a few frames for free. There's no real scene on the peninsula, but lots of creative, intelligent peopel who listen to it obsessively.

― DJ Logan5, Friday, 18 May 2007 23:54 (nineteen years ago)

kompakt tracks named after girls: closer musik's "maria", mayer's "amanda", jonas bering's "melanie", the rice twins' "for penny and alexis": these are some of favourite tracks ever. is this some kind of secret formula? which am I still missing?

― jermainetwo, Sunday, 27 May 2007 16:57 (nineteen years ago)

Thomas Brinkmann's Ernst series.

― blunt, Sunday, 27 May 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

thanks blunt! wasn't actually expecting any response to this - a nice suprise. you heard the ernst series? which is the best?

― jermainetwo, Sunday, 27 May 2007 20:52 (nineteen years ago)

Ulla, absolutely!

― blunt, Sunday, 27 May 2007 21:05 (nineteen years ago)

"is this some kind of secret formula? which am I still missing?"

I assume you've already heard Phillipe Cam's "Karine"?

BTW, I'm in total agreement as to the brilliance of all those tracks you mentioned.

― Tim F, Sunday, 27 May 2007 23:36 (nineteen years ago)

i hadn't heard "karine" actually! very pretty - sounds like the durutti column!

― jermainetwo, Monday, 28 May 2007 08:38 (nineteen years ago)

and i'm currently listening to the new rice twins b-side, "goatee", which, though not named after a girl (one hopes) is rather wonderful

― jermainetwo, Monday, 28 May 2007 08:40 (nineteen years ago)

as jergins mentioned above, i now see

― jermainetwo, Monday, 28 May 2007 08:42 (nineteen years ago)

So Speicher CD3 has been announced, tracklisting looks decent.

The new Douglas Greed single on Freude Am Tanzen is called "Girlfriend In A Coma." Apparently, in 20 years, all German minimal artists will have retired from techno and joined Smith/Roxy Music cover bands.

― Michael F Gill, Monday, 28 May 2007 23:46 (nineteen years ago)

Not that new it came out in Feb :p I bought it off boomkat a while back, incidentally the A Ille und soeren is the absolute shit. B1 is a horrendous piece of electronica tho.
