― something less threatening (heywood), Friday, 3 February 2006 02:57 (eighteen years ago) link

I've been warming up for Immer 2 by listening to the Michael Mayer Live @ Big City Beats 2005 set - it's so good! What is that track that sounds like a steam engine family drama about 40 minutes in.

what a goofy-looking flyer! what's up w/ that?! it looks like somebody vomited in photoshop!

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 6 February 2006 14:31 (eighteen years ago) link

It looks like a flyer for a ropey local Hip Hip crew.

So, did anyone go to Stink on Monday to see DJ Koze? Or has anyone ever seen him play out?

I heard he was very good.

― Chewshabadoo (Chewshabadoo), Thursday, 9 February 2006 09:36 (eighteen years ago) link

i got a text at half midnight when i was in bed 200 miles away simply saying "dj koze is amazing". then i had to go to sleep to go to work the next day :(

londond sucks

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 9 February 2006 13:10 (eighteen years ago) link

there's a short review of the koze night here
http://allsexistape.blogspot.com/

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Thursday, 9 February 2006 13:20 (eighteen years ago) link

"we went all out for what was apparently DJ Koze's first UK gig in 4 years. He certainly didn't fail to disappoint, his set chock full of varied, interesting and danceworthy tunes. Highlights included Egoexpress' 'Fool Of The New City', Pepe Bradock's mix of Candi Staton going into some Theo Parrish tune, and Todd Terje's re-edit of Daft Punk mixed superbly with Pharrell's 'Angel' of all things! The last two fit together like a glove, but I almost wish that he mixed it out into something else. All because the ladies love... DJ Koze...."

I can't wait until he plays down here!

― Chewshabadoo (Chewshabadoo), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Is anyone else going to see Superpitcher at the Canal Room (NYC) tonight?

― paulhw (paulhw), Thursday, 9 February 2006 14:31 (eighteen years ago) link

That Rice Twins track off Speicher 33 is making me so very happy right now.

― Jena (JenaP), Friday, 17 February 2006 04:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Pls someone come with me to the Justus + Mayer shows in Chicago

― Roque Strew (RoqueStrew), Friday, 17 February 2006 08:42 (eighteen years ago) link

lol...i can wait for the new speicher of course. its a bit frustrating when all these people have heard all this stuff before it comes out and dont even give a hint of what it might be like - at least tantalise me with detail, rather than with the lack of the same!

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 17 February 2006 11:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I will be at the Justus show in NYC. Though am probably more psyched about seeing Tobias Thomas (or any Kompakt DJ, ever)

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 17 February 2006 12:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, this means we all must go to the NYC show for an ilxor techno FAP!

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Friday, 17 February 2006 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

xpost:

Thomas Meinecke is a guy from Munich. He's the mastermind of the band FSK, actually a quite well-known postpunk band (in Germany at least). Very postpunk now, I mean they exist for 25 years. For their last album their cooperated with Anthony Shake Shakir. Apart from that he's a writer. Don't know if his novels are translated: an interesting mixture of Kodwo Eshun, Judith Butler and listening to lots of techno.

Really nice guy.

for sure!

Sorry ambrose, I don't mean to be a tease. Since I have absolutely no inside connections for hearing things early, I always assume most of you folks hear things long before me. Anyway, I heard the song here:

http://jurgenmacho.blogspot.com/

― matt2 (matt2), Monday, 20 February 2006 16:50 (eighteen years ago) link

that new orb speicher track is really awesome! mega-ravey. i was surprised at how good it was.

― geeta (geeta), Sunday, 26 February 2006 21:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Has the Hope Blister reissue been mentioned elsewhere? It's got an extra cd with really spacious remakes/remixes by Markus Guenter. A very ILM sort of release I would think, with loads of microgoth potential (in theory I guess, somehow Guenter is just too sunny to be a (micro)goth.)

― Omar (Omar), Thursday, 2 March 2006 09:12 (eighteen years ago) link

the rice twins track on the other side of that speicher is gorgeous. what else have these swedish chaps done?

anyone heard the kaito record yet?

― jackl (jackl), Sunday, 12 March 2006 19:58 (eighteen years ago) link

The new kaito is VERY light and airy.

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Sunday, 12 March 2006 22:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm not 100% sure on this, but it seems Dettinger is back with a new single called "Dawning" that partners him with Ben Klock. It's being released under the name Dettman Klock.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 05:17 (eighteen years ago) link

The new kaito is VERY light and airy.

Meaning it's floating somewhere in close (but not too close) vicinity of the sun? That'd be really nice...

― willem -- (willem), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 07:59 (eighteen years ago) link

it looks like Justus cancelled in portland. sad face.

― jergins (jergins), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 09:45 (eighteen years ago) link

i think justus canceled his whole US tour. not sure, but that's what i heard.

i am v. v. sad about this!

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 10:35 (eighteen years ago) link

nooo! is tobias thomas still playing?

It's not Dettinger

― Andy_K (Andy_K), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 12:21 (eighteen years ago) link

i don't think so :(

if you go to kompakt-net.de and click on 'dates' -- there are no U.S. dates listed for anybody until mayer at the end of april.

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Marcel Dettmann is not Dettinger. He used to be one of the resident DJs of Ostgut and is now playing Berghain/Panorama Bar.

― Tobias Rapp (Tobias Rapp), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:20 (eighteen years ago) link

hey tobias!

― geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Justus definitely cancelled in Toronto.

― jackl (jackl), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 16:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Thanks for the Dettinger/Dettman info!

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 18:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I know it's not on Kompakt, but has anyone heard the new Markus Guentner album?

― T. Weiss (Timmy), Sunday, 19 March 2006 01:49 (eighteen years ago) link

it's on ware, which is distributed by kompakt, so i think it counts. i heard it. i think it's nice. i can't get very worked up about markus guentner. his music is very nice. perfect for spas and yoga studios, and i don't mean that in a bad way. in fact, the last time i set foot in a spa, they were playing markus guentner!

― geeta (geeta), Sunday, 19 March 2006 02:02 (eighteen years ago) link

i bought the Markus Geuntner as a present from Germany for my g/f. She seems very happy with it (and I hope she is not just being polite...)

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Sunday, 19 March 2006 02:50 (eighteen years ago) link

a quick question not necessarily in line with the recent posts here (it has driven me crazy today):

what song from some time ago references "true to life" by roxy music?

perhaps a kompakt production?

does anyone know instantly?

― gert hall, Monday, 20 March 2006 05:09 (eighteen years ago) link

are you sure you're thinking 'true to life'? i can think of two that use roxy music, neither on kompakt but related. one is a michaela melian cover of 'a song for europe' and the other is a whirlpool productions tune (i think it's called 'crazy music') that samples 'editions of you.'

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 20 March 2006 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

there's also the Carsten Jost & Katze's "In Every Dreamhome a Heardache" (sic).

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 20 March 2006 23:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Hi everyone,
Thank you for the quick responses. Its amazing that so many people have their eyes on this space.
The song i was thinking of is the title track of the 1995 album by Love Inc., "Life's a Gas".
Not quite a Kompakt production but then again very much one. I was always in awe of Force Inc. in their day. How about a Wolfgang Voight retrospective?

― gert hall, Tuesday, 21 March 2006 05:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Re: Life's a Gas

it is not roxy music alone ,either. a very nice combination that continues to hold true today.

― gert hall, Tuesday, 21 March 2006 05:14 (eighteen years ago) link

this thread has slowed down quite a lot. has kompakt?
