Kompakt presents: TOTAL 11

Posted by Jakub



Here it is for all you long time Kompakt fans, Total 11, I’ve been waiting for this for awhile now. It’s a solid listen, I grabbed 4 tracks that really stuck with me. First, The Field melts your mind with sugary psychedelic layered synth work thats mechanical and hypnotic while Justus Kohncke goes more with a disco meets Junior Boys approach. Michael Mayer goes abit downtempo with it, a little more safe and nothing like his old hit Speaker which some of you might remember. The real experimenter here is Mr. Voigt aka Gas, I imagine this flying as Stiff German Pop in 2065, he calls on the Matias Aguayo spirits to help with the vocals. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

AloeBlacc+Airliner+Daedelus+FlyingLotus

Posted by Jakub



Oh Stones Throw, I love that you give me the option to have the instrumentals, nothing against Aloe Blacc’s voice at all, its great but I love a beat label that gives up the instrumental.

For those Com Truise fans out there, here’s one of his other alias under the name Airliner

I got to take my younger sister to see Mux Mool, Sepalcure and Daedelus the other night, she was geeked thru the whole show but wanted more Daedelus to take home and listen but looked around and couldn’t really find music that sounded like his live set, any suggestions?

The rare chance Flying Lotus remixes you is an honor these days for producers. Ninja Tunes’ Andreya Triana recently got the pleasure and the outcome was something that should of been on Los Angeles.

The Soft Moon: Video & Branding

Posted by Jakub





I love when a musician has the full spectrum covered when it comes to his or her vision on all fronts of their work, it shows confidence and that nothing is going to stop this artist from trying anything especially if its as tightly branded as The Soft Moon. I love the ethereal drive of Parallels and the video, so carefully cared for yet still has at rough touch to it all.

Recent Flashback: Tensnake Mix For RA

Posted by Jakub



A future classic in my mind, this mix by Tensnake for Resident Advisor keeps a pace that feels right for any occasion. If you haven’t followed the highly informative and giving RA site then I suggest you should, decent reviewers but more importantly a great site for these mixes. That Floating Points track still gets me, damn, so good.

Slowdive + Washed Out = Violens?

Posted by Jakub



This song will get its own playlist today. Tom Croose this morning shared this little number with me from a 7 inch, its a mash up by Violens of Slowdive’s Souvlaki Space Station and Washed Out’s Feel It All Around. I can’t really give you an opinion on it because i’m such a Souvlaki Space Station fan that I automatically loved it from the start. Please support and pick this up on vinyl.

Oriol + Baths + Teen Daze

Posted by Jakub



I think Onra and Dam Funk have a little brother and his name is Oriol. I really love this feel, the cover actually says it all. Planet-Mu has really stepped up their signing artist game, congrats guys, I hope to hear more.

We all could fall in love with Baths, he seems like someone that would be nice to you every time you met him but thats not why I share his music, I share it because I listen to it over and over like this new song Nordic Laurel.

Teen Daze killed this Japandroids cover, i’m into the mashing of a roaring lead synth over a slow flat beat, its like if Washed Out collabed on a song with Women.
