Without doubt, one of the house music scene’s fast rising stars, Andres Campo cut his teeth on the Spanish club scene, establishing himself as the resident of one of the most important clubs in the country, Florida 135.   Fifteen years and counting on the DJ circuit has paid dividends, Campo now regularly brings his techno orientated DJ sets to some of the world’s biggest clubbing institutions, and is building a formidable reputation to boot.  

As a producer, Campo has released his infectious house sounds on an array of labels, including Suara, Odd Recordings and MOOD.

With its pumping kicks and rattling percussion, ‘Nochord’ forages a steady yet decidedly groovy path; metallic FX rain down alongside a looped female vocal lick that filters in and out as another vocal refrain gets put through Campo’s FX chamber.  It’s a production that’s packed full of energy, soul and raw power, and perfectly encapsulates Campo’s driving house sound.

Adding a techier spin on the original, Alan Fitzpatrick weighs in with a beefed up version on his tantalising remix.  Taking the vocal element and mangling in around huge techtonic beats, Fitzpatrick follows up recent releases and remixes for Drumcode, Bedrock and his own We Are The Brave label with this killer remix for Eats Everything’s Edible label.

Andres Campo - Nochord (Alan Fitzpatrick Remix) (EDIBLE012) [clip]

Taken from Mat Playford's beautiful album... Solar. Made entirely in his solar powered studio using his array of analogue synths that he has collected over the years.

Hot off the back of his esteemed Kic 8462852 EP, that features an exclusive remix from Detroit techno legends Octave One, Mat Playford marks a return to Awesome Soundwave with Solar , a powerful and moving LP made up of ten original tracks. 

From its conception, Solar has been a project that has been held deep in Mat Playford’s heart. Having begun producing the LP at the end of 2016, in Mat’s own words it has been: “a long journey this project” but one that has resulted in a standout album on Carl Cox and Christopher Coe’s Awesome Soundwave imprint.  

Having moved to the South Coast of England in 2011, Mat Playford’s career in electronic music is a story to behold. From owning a record shop in Leeds, to holding a residency at Space Ibiza for seven years, it is in recent times that Mat’s passion for solar power has come to fruition, where he uses this to cultivate and grow his own chilli farm, as well as powering his studio.

You may ask: "In the day and age of streaming playlists and the omnipresence of freely available mixes, what's the use of a label compilation?" The answer is simple: labels still serve as a dearly needed filter mechanism in this tsunami of music we're facing every day. Labels strive to establish trust between artists and listeners. They're like your favorite restaurant around the corner. On the spur of the moment, you might find more excitement in that hip place that just opened somewhere else. But when the novelty fades, you'll always return to your sanctuary. The safe place where they know your name and the last drink is on the house. KOMPAKT has become such a place for generations of fans and artists alike. And the TOTAL compilation series serves as its menu: always changing but instantly recognizable.

As per usual TOTAL is a collection of the past years biggest tunes, the creme de la creme of KOMPAKT's steady output of 12"s topped off with eight exclusive unreleased tracks that are also available on the 2LP vinyl edition of TOTAL 19.

With JÜRGEN PAAPE, the notorious VOIGT brothers, THOMAS/MAYER and JÖRG BURGER - all founding fathers are on board. Legacy artists SASCHA FUNKE and JUSTUS KÖHNCKE make their long-awaited comebacks, the latter with a kinky Patrick Cowley homage called "Mindless Sex Track". Cologne young blood JULIAN STETTER nails the starry-eyed, romantic KOMPAKT signature sound with his remix for an up and coming local pop outfit called ALBERT LUXUS. Fellow Colonian JONATHAN KASPAR makes his label debut with his slinky track "Renard". DJ BALDUIN definitely is one to watch in 2020. His massive "E.W.B.A." transcends the friendly populism of an ancient Love Parade anthem while capturing the sincere spirit of today's electro revival. REX THE DOG's "Vortex" and TOM DEMAC's "Serenade" perfectly showcase why KOMPAKT is still one of the most played and charted labels in electronic music today. In a scene that is more fragmented than ever these two producers delivered true consensus hits that are cherished on all sizes and shapes of floors beyond genre boundaries.

The second half completely belongs to a whole new breed from our beloved SPEICHER series such as ANNA, YOTAM AVNI, EXTRAWELT, RAXON, BLACKRACHAS, JOHN MONKMAN and LA FLEUR alongside our full time members PATRICE BÄUMEL, KÖLSCH and GUI BORATTO. The energy levels are way up and the mission reads clearly: We'll never stop dancing this way.

This Moment of Silence

ATL006 B Denis Sulta - Rock It [Preview]

Ronnie Spiteri's Kenja Records returns with another bold release from the label head himself. Featuring a jackin', bassline fuelled remix from the mighty Darius Syrossian 
Ronnie opens with 'Musical Minds', a deep, rolling terrace cut that blends swathes of swinging percussion with fierce, punchy kicks and nethermost sub basslines. Fat stabbing piano hooks echo across the shimmering rides and soulful vocal leads. 

'Soul Finder' sees Spiteri experimenting with expressive, octave jumping basslines that glide with ease through his assembly of splashy drum tops and intricate snare fills. Through the other side of a truly monolithic breakdown, we're back into his fusion of footwork provoking drums and subtle vocal stabs. 

Darius Syrossian strips back the fat, housey grooves of 'Soul Finder', exposing the raw, exposed layers for their true strength. Enormous tuned kicks roll out metrically with jackin' hats and snares, time-stretched vocals and glitched out stabs throughout the breakdown. A monumental triptych of fiery club cuts from Kenja Records. 

Ronnie Spiteri has had a super busy year. He has released on labels such as Knee Deep In Sound, We Are The Brave, Tronic and Stereo Productions in recent months and there is no sign of him stopping anytime soon! Kenja Records is his imprint, established back in 2015 with a busy release schedule for the rest of 2020 and 2021 full of killer cuts and key artists.
