Last year Swiss five-piece Sirens of Lesbos released their epic debut LP "SOL" to critical acclaim. If you haven't woken up to the relatively new act – who grabbed the attention of and subsequently collaborated with Atlanta rap-star JID, Dreamville producer Christo, and "one to watch" UK vocalist Theodor Black on the album – then it's time!

2021 sees the first step towards their second LP with spectacular new single, "I See Stars" - a cover of sorts, which takes its vocal hook from Supersempfft's 1980 track of the same name. The German synthesiser pioneers, whose fans stretched from Herbie Hancock to Kraftwerk, have already given the track their seal of approval. When you consider the act helped forge hip-hop history when they created the beats to Timezone's seminal "The Wild Style" using the Roboterwerke drum machine they designed, it's quite the accolade.

Sirens of Lesbos' Worldbeat ethos continues Supersempfft's tradition of blending diverse influences, synthesising these into a distinct musical world on "I See Stars". Calming and uplifting the listener with each play, the act - producers Melvyn Buss and Arci Friede, co-producers and vocalist sisters Jasmina and Nabyla Serag, and Denise Häberli, the group's art director - cement themselves as pioneers of audible Prozac and highlight their extensive and otherworldly talents for making music that you would marry.

With lyrics referencing Wu-Tang Clan's debut 1992 single "Protect Ya Neck" and RZA's book "The Tao of Wu", Sirens of Lesbos connect to the hip-hop lineage Supersempfft touched decades before. In addition, there are hints to Paulo Coelho's "Warrior of the Light", which continue the band's exploration of spiritual transformation.

In further sharing the visionary spirit of Supersempfft, whose original artwork featured the adventures of an intergalactic, tuba-playing frog, "I See Stars" is accompanied by a cosmic video. Directed by Lionel “Vinyl” Williams - the LA-based, neo-psychedelic artist and grandson of cinematic composer John Williams - the video is probably one of the first virtual vertical music videos ever made.

Lyrics:

Sitting in the rising sun
Watching for the time to come
I see stars

Mama said protect ya neck
It's cold out there and life ain't fair
Wear a dagger, be prepared
Be true, give love, be a warrior of light
Of light

Sitting in the rising sun
Watching for the time to come
I see stars

Baba said be moderate
The truth is vague, don't be afraid
Wear a dagger, be prepared
Be true, give love and how instead of why
Of why

Sitting in the rising sun
Watching for the time to come
I see stars

Sitting in the rising sun
Watching for the time to come
I see stars

I See Stars

Titled after the majestic woodwind instrument, Badbox's upcoming release "Zurna '' elicits the alchemy of memories passed, as the London-based DJ/producer seeks deep into his Mediterranean roots to cast an immersive sonic experience. Trajecting back to center, Badbox spuns hypnotic ethnic rhythms that let the zurna's vibrant resonance gleam in climactic swells and instinctive drum patterns. Reconnecting with his cultural upbringing, Badbox sutures a patchwork of sentimental nuances, reflecting the intricacies of memory and emotions. Effervescent and engaging, "Zurna" is sure to rouse motion, but is especially sublime when set to fire in an open atmosphere.

JOAKIM - Nothing Gold (Todd Terje mix)

The three last years have been crazy for Mainz-based German Turkish producer and DJ Bülent Gürler, the driving force behind the brawny pseudonym Butch. Well, actually, all his life has been crazy. From his early days as a graffiti artist to today, Bülent Gürler, a sparkling individual with a great sense of humor, has always pushed the envelope. An immensely talented, music-ridden, technique-crazed person with a strong zest for recognition, he’s undergone a huge artistic metamorphosis in order to expose himself. And now that his “Papillon” is spreading its wings, Butch is ready to take off!

“We have always been very fortunate to meet and know many talented producers. In recent years, we have been exploring those relationships with different remixes and collaborations, and every time something exciting came out. That’s why we started our Synchronicity project. To challenge ourselves making inspiring, fun and beautiful music.‘Synchronicity’ means "the simultaneous occurrence of events which appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection. This very well describes how our path led to the place we are now – somewhere between the club and indie scenes.” – WhoMadeWho

KOMPAKT welcomes back Copenhagen’s WhoMadeWho. Tomas Barfod’s penchant for electronic music poetically juxtaposed with Tomas Høffding and Jeppe Kjellberg’s respective backgrounds in rock and jazz, gives their music an electrifying combination of sounds, merging a variety of influences to produce a unique sonic fingerprint that is emotive, irresistible and immensely satisfying. 

Though we both have yet to strike a note together since the release of their 2012 full length “Brighter” (KOM 254), WhoMadeWho have been remarkably productive. With two full lengths, a DJ mix for Watergate’s series and releasing two of 2019’s most played out club tracks together with Rampa (Innervisions) and Artbat (Watergate Records), the trio have found themselves diving more and more into the world of electronic music, tapping into their goldmine of connections within the scene to spearhead an array of collaborations. 

Synchronicity is all about ‘meaningful coincidences’ – bringing interpretation to bear on connections that have no actual causal relationship. It’s a canny concept to pin onto Copenhagen trio WhoMadeWho’s latest album, which sees them return to Kompakt for the first time since 2012’s Brighter.

This re-established connection helps us to understand the synchronicity at play, the way that the WhoMadeWho core ave built an album around collaboration with friends and peers, much as Kompakt is all about cross-connections and family. On Synchronicity, WhoMadeWho call on friends old and new – Michael Mayer, Echonomist, Adana Twins, Alex Boman, Robag Wruhme, Frank Wiedemann, Sainte Vie, Mano Le Tough, Marc Piñol, Rebolledo, and Perel is the cast list; WhoMadeWho direct the material, shaping it into one lovingly flowing gem of dance-pop glory.

There’s something particularly generous about hearing an album as all-inclusive and open-hearted as Synchronicity in the midst of the profound social and cultural shifts we’re currently experiencing. While some songs on Synchronicity were recorded together, in real time, such as the collaborations with Adana Twins and Rebolledo, most of them have taken place via long distance, thanks to the pandemic lockdown. But you don’t need to know who was where to understand either the magnesium-flare melancholy of “Sooner”, recorded with Piñol, which has you holding your breath with the gentle thrill of the song’s lush melody, or the stomping strut of the following Adana Twins collaboration, “Shadow Of Doubt”.

Elsewhere, there’s the stentorian robot voice at the heart of “Hamstring”, where they’re joined by Michael Mayer; the lustrous headsoak of “Twenty Tears”, a tender intervention by Rebolledo; the strip-light, slow-motion disco strut of “Cecil”, produced alongside Echonomist; or the glittering, arpeggio dreamwork that Perel helps sculpt into shape on “Der Abend birgt keine Ruh.”… Really, there’s so much to celebrate here, a panoply of pleasures. From pop revelations to dancefloor delirium to slow-burning brooders, Synchronicity is just that; a space for the joys of the unexpected to collide, and to be given meaning by their coincidental co-existence in WhoMadeWho’s beautiful world.
