Good guy mikesh & filburt - milk & honey ep Leipzig based electronic duo Good Guy Mikesh & Filburt are currently seeing their stocks rise with acclaimed releases on Mirau, Permanent Vacation and now Liebe*Detail Spezial. 'Milk & Honey' comes in two great versions from the enigmatic pair, along with two very special remixes from Ireland's hot export and deep thinker John Daly. A1: good guy mikesh & filburt - milk & honey (original) 'Milk & Honey' is a stand out song that refuses to fit into any current trends, and simply exists as a haunting, moody and dramatic slice of pop electronic house. Catchy, low slung and raw, the chunky bassline-led beats are topped of with contrasting delicate synth layers and ethereal passages that make the track very unique indeed. A2: good guy mikesh & filburt - milk & honey (basket mix) The 'Basket Mix' trips things out a little further and acts as a sort of refrain piece, celebrating the rich musical content and various movements found in the original. B1: good guy mikesh & filburt - milk & honey (john daly's 5am at nimmos remix) On the flip you'll find two slow, thoughtful and pumping remixes from John Daly, whose Feel Recordings imprint or work on labels like Plak has really caused a deep storm over the last few years. John's “5am at nimmos remix” pushes the moodiness even further, with a slow building and bass heavy lesson in hypnotic arrangement. Teasing us with his gradual unveiling of the wonderful vocal, there's a late nineties vibe at work here, yet it exists as a timeless and modern track all at the same time! B2: good guy mikesh & filburt - milk & honey (john daly's slightly disco remix) John's “slightly disco remix” takes us into darker disco territories with tweaking synths and basslines creating a cosmic acid feel from the very start. Phasing, mysterious and equally unique, we're proud to include this challenging re-interpretation as a testament to John's creative vision.

Aera -Freak Wave (Original Mix)

Order: http://www.kompakt.fm/releases/signs_under_test_2xlp_cd

- The lastest full-length effort from LA-based synth mastermind JOHN TEJADA
- An unabashedly dreamy collection of 11 expertly crafted cuts that rank among the artist's best work to date
- 2xLP edition pressed on 180gr audiophile vinyl, including a CD of the entire album

Following his much-acclaimed full-length „The Predicting Machine“ (KOMPAKT 267 CD 102) and a slew of pop-infused 12“ singles - „We Can Pretend“ (KOMPAKT 286) and „Somewhere“ (KOMPAKT 264) -, LA-based synth mastermind JOHN TEJADA returns with new album SIGNS UNDER TEST: comprised of all-new material, this latest effort sees the studio wizard digging deeper into his modules, unearthing particularly dreamy tracks that rank among John's most accomplished work to date.

From the get-go, SIGNS UNDER TEST presents itself as a whole new ball of wax, reaching even further into the depths of JOHN TEJADA's hot-wired synth machinery, while cranking up the already stunning levels of musicality on display in his oeuvre. Opener TWO 0 ONE serves as a prime example for the sonic aplomb in place, thanks to its beautifully rendered melodies and finely tuned textures – a perfect storm made of cosy melancholy and celestial bliss. This expertly wrought piece serves as a particularly strong entry point for the album, setting the bar high for its successors.

An unabashedly brilliant listen, the album continues its thrilling journey with existential bleepfest Y 0 WHY and the bass-heavy BEACHT, followed by the intricately arpeggiated R.U.R. and brooding electronica vignette VAALBARA. The second part is ringed in by the undulating CRYPTOCHROME - another proof for JOHN TEJADA's uncanny ability to craft tracks that operate as distinguished bouncers as well as introspective meditations. The deliberate vivacity of connecting cuts RUBRIC and PENUMBRA only confirms the growing suspicion that this might be a timeless masterpiece we're dealing with.

As gorgeous as it sounds, texture isn't the only star here: a surprisingly diverse set of rhythm patterns suffuses the mesmerizing synth licks - take for example the multilayered ENDORPHINS effortlessly switching between straight techno stylings and vintage breakbeat ornaments. Meanwhile, electronic landscape painting MEADOW purrs away on its road to redemption, priming the listener for closing cut HEAVE IN SIGHT, an atmospherically rich composition that marries abstract storytelling with a flurry of reversed synth sounds.

„There's a bit more dreamy tape wobble going on throughout“, says the producer about his latest effort, „as I’ve gone quite analog tape with my delays and patches - on the verge of actually being broken, which gives them a nice character.“ It also might explain the air of intimacy surrounding the album - a quite personal listening experience taking the listener up close with its details and idiosyncracies, „maybe even more than before, as I’ve tried to cut out distractions and really focus on the production.“
The result is a record that is not meant to be trendy, even though it’s a product of analog hardware connoisseurship: „Everything is built from the ground up using hardware synths - mostly analog, but that’s a bit annoying to say nowadays. It’s not a record that fits in with any current stuff, but something that hopefully holds up as it ages. Something that hopefully reveals more on repeated listens.“ In our humble opinion, this mission has been more than accomplished with SIGNS UNDER TEST.
