8BIT 004CD
|
Started in 2005 by Gorge and Nick Curly in Mannheim, 8Bit is celebrating its 5th birthday with a special compilation including more than 20 artists and exclusive tracks to be released only within this big package. Beside the hyped and sometimes boring minimal trend, 8Bit was one of the first imprints combining minimal, deep elements with danceable house grooves. In a short time, lots of turntablists and producers all over the world started paying attention to their releases and the "sound of Mannheim" was born. A lot of young and fresh artists like Johnny D, Ray Okpara and Veitengruber earned international attention and respect, like respected artists such as Oxia, Audiofly, Marcin Czubala or The Timewriter, who have since found a new home for their music on this label. With over 40 releases, compilations and Gorge's debut album Mood, 8Bit puts out this huge 2CD compilation, including two non-stop DJ mixes from Oxia and Steffen Deux and only exclusive tracks from the 8Bit catalog. Other artists include: UGLH & Federico Locchi, Daniel Dubb, Alex Niggemann, Sash BBC & Caspar, Gorge, Liapin & Tjoma, Darius Syrossian, Stefano Libelle, Hector, Nick Curly, Dave Rosario, Chily, Quell, Manuel Moreno, Nico Lahs, Dubshape, Domy & Apoena, Dualton & Wollion, Rills, Joe Montana, Marcin Czubala & Metrobox and Steffen Deux.

8BIT 003CD
|
This is the first album by Mannheim-based producer and 8Bit Records & Katchuli owner Pit Waldmann aka Gorge. Mood is comparable to an attitude to life which embodies balance, inner peace and harmony with everything -- like a love of music but specifically, deep house. Mood should largely be seen as a concept album, as Gorge very deliberately captured and musically interpreted all the moods of the whole production phase, so that it was merely a continuation of a leitmotif. Pit chose partly African names, which, like their relevant songs, also stand for a variety of moods. "Emefa" means peace, "Makena" stands for richness, "Imara" for strength and also sensuality, peace and joy are holistically summed up in this way. Although Mood is a largely timeless deep house album, his tone color expresses the summery Mediterranean attitude to life, which central Europeans also long for in winter. Mood is to be seen primarily as a listening album, the perfect background music for a wonderful Sunday on the terrace, at the beach or any other favorite place, but it also has something to offer clubs with songs like "Keya" and "Garuna." In addition to the album itself, there is also a bonus mix CD of the 10 best Gorge remixes from previous years, for the price of a single CD. Remixes includes songs by The Quasar & The Pressure, Garnica, Thodoris Triantafillou & CJ Jeff, James Talk, Chelonis R. Jones, Martin Eyerer & Oliver Klein, Steve Lawler, Federico Locchi, Solomun, and Milton Jackson.
