"This year, C/O Pop 2008 is celebrating its fifth jubilee! And this is the reason the in-house label C/O pop is going to release the traditional C/O pop compilation with the finest selection of artists attending the festival. And once more it proves that you do not need the usual headliners in order to successfully rock a really good festival. What you need is a knack for the booking, considerable style and taste, a bit of an uncompromising attitude and a twist of radicalness -- the proved and tested recipe for the C/O pop festival, the yearly urban event for pop culture from and around Cologne. This year's C/O pop festival is going to take full circle again: from DJ Koze's reminiscence to Gunther Gabriel to the hottest international acts such as Why?, Crystal Castles and Steed Lord; from local top acts such as Supermayer (Kompakt's Superpitcher and Michael Mayer), Schlammpeitziger (Sonig) and Markus Worgull (Groove Attack Recordstore/Innervisions) to one of the classics among the German pop and electronica icons: Daf. And in between, fantastic newcomers such as Coma (Cologne), 1.000 Robota (Hamburg) and Dillon (Berlin) who are going to take (and seduce) the audience with Beck and Abwärts deep down inside the cave of quotes. And when everybody's darling José González, singer/songwriter from Sweden, sounds in the remix version made by Norwegian producer Todd Terje, then, at the latest, you will understand what the festival C/O pop is about: to present the best of any music styles and worlds and to take (and kidnap) the audience on new paths in music. We would say: Don't miss C/O Pop 2008!"
