The 23rd edition of Kompakt's annual compilation series Total. The lively dance begins solemnly with Kollmorgen's deep-subtle minimal gem "Muddy." Making her debut is the wonderful Argia with the somewhat misleading title "No Concept" -- the Madrid native indeed has a very precise plan. Also, our number one hit guarantor, Jürgen Paape, is represented here with his brand-new super hit "Alone In Italy." His colleague Michael Mayer is also in top disco spirits with "Talmi." One of the secret weapons of the current season comes from Stephan Barnem and Futuristant. "Don't Cry" is a passionate new wave belter for eternity. Jörg Burger proclaims a new, trippy genre: cinematic dance, before C.A.R. and Patrice Bäumel slowly raise the energy level in the "Four Down" club mix. John Tejada then cruises calmly at the desired cruising altitude while the cabin crew serves refreshments. "Duration" by Barnt/Mayer pays tribute to an artist formerly known as Prince with grand rave romanticism, and about Rex The Dog's summer smash hit "Change This Pain For Ecstasy," there's really nothing more to say. The Thuringian force of nature Robag Wruhme must not be missing here, of course. "Fire" once again shows him in top form, with one of the dirtiest basslines in techno history. Joining us from London is Hardt Antoine, who spells "understatement" with "All We See." And finally, Reinhard Voigt featuring Eduard Weber bring it all together -- live from the grand Comedy Barn of folk music.
