Stahlschrank are Sun Ray (Fred und Luna) and Brain Emo (Ufo Hawaii). With their second single, Karin/Inge, Stahlschrank is pushing further their concept of "Elektrodadakraut", a musical style yet to be fully explored and developed. "Karin" is both a reflection on the transience of existence, and a modern tale of control and submission. The single B-side "Inge" is the second dive into the Stahlschrank concept of "Electronic Irritainment". Pushing both the limits of their studio environment and their neighbors' patience, "Inge" is also an observation of the individual's struggles against the background of contemporary club culture. Stahlschrank is currently working on their first long-player, possibly a quadruple album.

The fourth album by Web Web, WEB MAX, is a great spiritual jazz work -- sometimes floating, sometimes soulful, always intense and a wonderful homage to early seventies jazz. Web Web mastermind Roberto Di Gioia is accompanied for the first time by German rapper/producer Max Herre as a composer, musician, and producer. Both came together with guest musicians such as Mulatu Astatke, Yusef Lateef, Brandee Younger, Charles Tolliver (Strata East), and others to deliver a virtuoso masterpiece. WEB MAX is the fourth album in four years by the internationally highly acclaimed Web Web quartet, consisting of keyboarder, pianist Roberto Di Gioia, saxophonist Tony Lakatos, bassist Christian von Kaphengst, and drummer Peter Gall, all of them long-time performers of highest virtuosity, signed to Michael Reinboth's Compost Records.

Arnau Obiols and KAYYAK met just last year through their girlfriends who happen to be sisters. As one can imagine it did not take long until the two brothers-in-law sat in the studio together for the first time accompanied by Swiss bass player Jules Martinet and with vocals by South African singer B'utiza as well as Mozambican vocalist Tcheco who is part of the legendary band Ghorwane (Real World Records). The energy during the production of these songs came to life and resulted in the two originals on this record. Folkloric tradition with modern programming, acoustic drums, percussion with acid, echo feedback and psychedelic sounds all infused by funky basslines. In addition, they invited Kalabrese and MLiR to do a remix. Both of them being artists close at heart for Arnau and Kay.

The Return Of The Mad Funk EP is the work of California's DJ Rasoul, criminally underrated in the house community despite excellent projects on Large, 83 West, Strictly Rhythm, Leaf, Guidance, Uncut, Robsoul, and others. Tastemakers like Benji Candelario, David Morales, Glenn Underground, Paul Johnson, Carl Craig, and Stacey Pullen were heavy supporters of this three-tracker back in the days.

If something can be aseptic cold like the New Romantics and deep, soulful and trippy at the same moment, then this release by Berlin's Al Chem, which is a pretty damn thorough modelling of no wave. Raised from a diet of post-punk, new-wave, lost in a fogged-out warehouse, this kind of music and vocals in a minimal lo-fi electronic soul-bed is hard to find. Al Chem's voice and lyrics are beautiful, over an ethereal dive. Al Chem extracting a rich sense of emotion from a hypnotic grooving synth pad. With some tip-top hitters on remix duty: Shahrokh Dini made an absolutely stunning quirky peak time club mix, while Compost's boss Michael Reinboth is riding tough on a stone-cold '80s groove. Alexander Christou aka Al Chem/The Elecdrones -- producer, composer, singer, and DJ 1962-1968 London, 1968-1979 Würzburg, since 1980 in Berlin.

Space music of an outstanding and extraordinary kind: just as you would expect when two mannequins leave their boutique in Karlsruhe/Germany in their mind's eye to go and see places where they haven't been before. Im Weltenraum, how they call their new album, is Fred Und Luna's next step in their ever-changing series of "elektrokraut/krautelektro" music. A charming and fascinating voyage through an endless universe of phantasmagorical soundscapes, repetitive rhythms, catchy melodies, and even a side trip to Acid House Land. After their Gluck Auf on Optimo Music (OM 034EP), where they started with a journey through motorik krautland, followed by a trip to a both atmospheric and boppy soundgarden on their album Im Klanggarten" (Bigamo, 2017), an intoxicating journey into deep blue areas on Im Tiefenrausch (COMP 537CD/LP, 2019) and tribal dancefloor spots on Im Tanzrausch" (COMP 538EP, 2019), Fred Und Luna are now on the traces of spaces, unknown worlds and unknown time zones, accompanied by Patrick Pulsinger, both a mix master and a master of mastering. Who are Fred Und Luna? Fred Und Luna are two mannequins living in a fashion boutique in Karlsruhe, Germany. They serve as muse for musician, lector, poet, and photo/video maker Rainer Buchmüller. Inspired by his doll friends and his love for German electronic music of the past decades, Rainer Buchmüller under the alias Fred Und Luna produces his self-created genres elektrokraut and Krautelektro: both a modern combination of repetitive rhythms, beautiful melodies, electronic soundscapes, and elements from the krautrock era. Under the name of Ariston Baton, Rainer Buchmüller also writes and performs sound poems and concrete poetry.

Finally, Compost presents the highly sought-after Pablo Fierro remix for "Bara" by Mr Raoul K & Manoo (a Black Coffee favorite tune!) plus a dub version and a superb collabo Afro house tune by Mr Raoul K & Pablo Fierro. A package with global club torpedoes... Third 12" to go along with Mr Raoul K's African Paradigm album. If you consider the album as a listening experience with a stong focus on storytelling, the twelve inches shift your focus to the dancier side of things. To get things started, Mr Raoul K teams up with Pablo Fierro and they unleash "Ancestral". At the beginning, the dynamic duo puts its instrumental track in the back and let B'Utiza's great vocals carry the track. After grooving along with lots of percussion and their subtle yet sincere drums, Pablo and Raoul finish the track with energy and all their musical skills on full display. On the flipside, Pablo Fierro flexes his dancefloor muscle on "Bara" of African Paradigm EP II fame (CPT 557EP). Pounding drums and vocal snippets echoing back and forth pave the way for Ahmed Sosso's vocals. After some kind of call and response between vocals and the growing instrumental tracks, Pablo unleashes the track's full power around the five-minute mark and goes with flow until the very end. On the second track, Mr Raoul K and Manoo strip down "Bara" to its bare essentials. It's just the groove and a looped vocal snippet. After a quite while a little buildup with some keyboards and strings. A hypnotizing dub with every piece in position to really please the late crowd -- including a long, beatless outro...

The third Web Web album, Worshippers, is the richest and perhaps best Web Web album so far. It testifies to maturity and is the logical continuation of the two preceding albums. In a way, it is a concept album in Web Web's journey through Afro- and spiritual jazz. Worshippers: The idolizers, the admirers. Web Web adores and bows to the greats of jazz and their spiritual music. Songs like "The Upper", "Paranormal Question", or the multi-part "Free A.M." were created, all of which show more complex structures as well as sophisticated forms and arrangements than the two previous albums Oracle (COMP 499CD/LP, 2017) and Dance Of The Demons (COMP 516CD/LP, 2018). Along with the search for new sounds and soundscapes arose the desire for an extended sound body, which goes beyond Web Web's conventional repertoire: Besides, there was a musician, with whom the complex arrangements and the tight, mantric rhythms could be accomplished: the violinist and violist Stefan Pintev. The native Bulgarian, who previously played with legends like Ray Charles or Astrud Gilberto, could give the music an additional depth and a mystical color with his dark timbre on his violin. In pieces like "Mystic Flowers" or "Inner Revolution", his entire sound spectrum is brilliantly revealed, as is his narrative and multi-layered playing. In the middle of the production process of this album, the idea to let the incredible voice of Joy Denalane (Freundeskreis, Common) flow into Web Web's music was born. Since Joy Denalane and Roberto Di Gioia were working on their solo album simultaneously, Joy became amazed by the new Web Web sounds and ended up contributing to this album. On this album, Joy Denalane does not perform in the way we know from her song forms and structures. Instead she sings in a free, improvisational manner, uses her voice as an instrument, enters into a dialogue with Tony Lakato's wondrous improvisations (as in "What You Give"), or experiments with alienating (and alienated) vocal tirades in "Free A.M. (Part 1)", asserting her sensational art of improvisation -- similar to the early Dee Dee Bridgewater. On the opening song "The Upper", she impresses with her dark and soulful voice and indicates the way for the whole album from her very first line. Web Web are Roberto Di Gioia (piano, synth, percussion), Tony Lakatos (tenor and soprano saxophones, flute), Christian von Kaphengst (upright bass), and Peter Gall (drums).

With his nothing-short-of-outstanding Force EP on Compost, the prodigious Laolu pushes his boundaries even further and provides us with a refreshing and yet poignant travel through his vision of Afro-inspired house music. In addition to this musical marvel comes a long-awaited vinyl exclusive Laolu remix of Sophie Hunger's "There Is Still Pain Left", one that will be remembered. It received heavy support already from the likes of Solomun, Marcus Worgull, Trikk, and Eagles & Butterflies. Released on Innervisions at the end of 2015, Laolu's remix of Dele Sosimi's "Too Much Information" has been a number one hit and Dixon and Âme's favorite track of the year. Laolu was born out of the love of a Nigerian father and a Swiss mother who, most appropriately, met in a record store in Berlin. He spent his first years in Nigeria where his parents owned "The Gallery", a club dedicated to jazz and soul; so his musical education began. After relocating to France, he attended a music school in order to learn saxophone and music theory, but upon discovering Detroit techno pioneers Derrick May and Carl Craig at the age of 18, he sold his saxophone to buy his first drum machine. He then moved to Geneva where he started DJing and met Kadebostan, who quickly became a musical coconspirator in the studio and as a DJ partner. In 2010, Laolu released his first EP O Fantasma on the young Berlin based label Clap Your Hands, a deep tune for special club moments. During the following years, his collaborations and solo work have led him to produce music for labels including Innervisions, Defected, Compost Records, Get Physical, Weapons, Freude Am Tanzen, Clap Your Hands, Mental Groove, Jalapeno Records, and Soundway Records. He kicked off 2014 writing and producing "Sene Kela" for Mr Raoul K's new album, which gathered love and support from Dixon, Mano Le Tough, and more. As a DJ, he has built a solid reputation in his hometown of Geneva, but also played across Europe in Berlin, Paris, Krakow, and Tbilisi. Ruff techno and heart-warming house, his style is both sophisticated and raw at once, allowing him to swing moods and match the feverish atmosphere of any club.

C.O.W. are back. In fact, they were never gone. Having released two iconic features with the likes of Alxndr London (UK) and Hatsune Miku (JP) following the success of their previous $hanghai Mone¥ EP (COMP 505EP), the German-Chinese producer collective finally delivers their long-awaited first album. Being a true child of the digital world, what better name could they have chosen than the one of their very own genre: Internet. But it wouldn't be C.O.W. if there wasn't a catch to it. A conceptual twist. Something deeper. The internet is a place of uncountable content, phenomenon and impressions. However, in the worldview of the collective all of these can be comprised into four elements: epic, fury, love, and drugs. A philosophical concept turned album. Four elements that define our surrounding, our taste and opinion-makers, our filter bubbles and echo-chambers. We all know and experience them when traveling through that fantastic space. Like turning from praise to hate, from excitement to sadness within a few clicks, so will the album take you on a journey through all these elements, all those feelings within the collectives mind-blowing productions. C.O.W. are back, but -- like content in the Internet -- they've always been there, you only needed to look for them. Features Jakob from Earth, Jake Masca, Masia One, Supa Mojo & General Ling, Dexter, Tahnee Matthiesen, Kid Simius, and Sola Plexus.

Automat -- Jochen Arbeit (Einstürzende Neubauten, Die Haut), Achim Färber (Phillip Boa & The Voodooclub, Skip McDonald), and Georg Zeitblom (wittmannzeitblom) -- operates like a well-oiled machine: it buzzes, it whirrs, it follows an unswerving course. Together with modular magician Max Loderbauer and Paul St. Hilaire, aka Tikiman, Lydia Lunch, and Mika Bajinski on vocal duties, they now present Modul their most varied and consistent album to date, on Compost Records. On their fourth album, the trio shifts down a gear, further refines its musical approach and partners with other figures from the world of adventurous music. The eight pieces on Modul were written collectively based on a building block system that dynamically set the compositional process in motion and evenly divided responsibility between all participants. The result is a musical perpetuum mobile -- an album with the steady resting pulse of a dub production that always stays on the move. As an album, »Modul« captures a continuous process of transformation that was first to be experienced in the year 2018, when Automat presented an earlier version at the Pop-Kultur festival as part of a commissioned work. Having been invited by the curatorial team, Zeitblom, Färber, and Arbeit together with their guests St. Hilaire, Lunch, and Gemma Ray created a live set that was resolutely developed in the studio on the basis of single modular elements that were (re-)combined according to the principle of a resonance module: it's a to-and-fro between the individual members, structures morph and the sound incessantly takes on different shapes.

Manoo and Mr Raoul K head straight towards the dancefloor: gritty drums, driving synths. In a true wild pitch manner, they build a massive stack of sound and groove which gets knocked over into a nice break that gives plenty of room for Ahmed Sosso's vocals. The second track, deceivingly named "Slowmotion", is all about motion: Skippy beats never stop. They keep feet and heads moving. Sounds rising from far away move through the room and echo away (don't panic, you''l get a little breather before the end). On the flipside, Auztin Pauers & Ezrael transform "O Mera Dil" into a lush yet groovy pieced for late night crowds. Laidback beats, Fender Rhodes-esque keyboard sounds, an organic feel and Lady Parul's vocals are put together so smoothly -- like a comfy sweater that keeps you warm while you dance into the morning. For the last track, Mr Raoul K's long-time collaborator Kuniyuki presents his take on "African Paradigm". His mix takes his time to collect and incorporate inspiration from all six chapters of African Paradigm, using mesmerizing, airy strings to join all pieces. Kuniyuki transforms Mr Raoul K's journey through the history of Africa into a journey through a day. Starting sleepy in the morning, getting more and more busy throughout the day. Then getting some rest, take a nap and prepare to have some fun in the evening.

A brief history of Fred Und Luna Having previously released the EP Glück Auf (OM 034EP, 2016) on the Scottish label Optimo Music and being remixed by Prins Thomas for the Berlin label Innervisions, the year 2017 saw Fred Und Luna feature their debut album Im Klanggarten on Frank Wiedemann's (Âme, Howling) newly-founded label Bigamo Musik. After the first editions of both the EP and LP both sold out quickly, live shows in Germany, France and England followed as well as remixes for Peter Pardeike (Connaisseur Recordings) and a common release with Trikk on Innervisions, among others. A team-up with Achim Treu (UFO Hawaii) resulted in several remixes for international musicians.

Together they form the so-called Equipe Nadaphysique. The next exhibition featuring all three named personalities will take place end of October 2018 at Rockomotives Festival in Vendôme, France. A brief history of Fred Und Luna Having previously released the EP Glück Auf (OM 034EP, 2016) on the Scottish label Optimo Music and being remixed by Prins Thomas for the Berlin label Innervisions, the year 2017 saw Fred Und Luna feature their debut album Im Klanggarten on Frank Wiedemann's (Âme, Howling) newly-founded label Bigamo Musik. After the first editions of both the EP and LP both sold out quickly, live shows in Germany, France and England followed as well as remixes for Peter Pardeike (Connaisseur Recordings) and a common release with Trikk on Innervisions, among others. A team-up with Achim Treu (UFO Hawaii) resulted in several remixes for international musicians.
