"Expect the unexpected," they say, and it should come as a surprise to many as we warmly welcome to the Kompakt family one of America's most celebrated producers in dance music, John Tejada! Born in Austria, he relocated to his current home of Los Angeles at the age of 8 and, following a brief career in hip-hop, found his home in electronic music. If you're even the slightest fan of the genre, you'll be hard-pressed not to have heard his music over his decade+-long career. Whether on his own Palette Recordings, Poker Flat, or Plug Research — plus a Fabric Mix CD under his belt, it's thanks to a steady stream of massive releases (think "Mono On Mono" and "Sweat On The Walls") that he remains a mainstay in the charts of Beatport and uncountable DJs. He is also half of the long-standing City Centre Offices act, I'm Not A Gun (together with Takeshi Nishimoto). "I wanted to experiment with some longer phrases again and to step away from the analog sequencers more and get back to using my hands to create the melodies. I also feel for the first time in quite a while I've made an album of songs for myself without worrying about the usual pressures." – John Tejada Kompakt presents his extraordinary new album "Parabolas". Resident Advisor called Tejada "one of the most notoriously meticulous producers around" — an unmistakable proof lies within these recordings. Genres collide and combine with an unraveling of blissful layers on "Parabolas". The opening track, "Farther &amp; Fainter," offers a musicality today's techno and house often lack — an accomplishment that resonates throughout the album. Tracks such as "Subdivided" and "Unstable Condition" reflect the wondrousness of Aphex Twin's Polygon Window project, something that could only be reanimated and brought to 2011's standards by Tejada. "Parabolas" is a true highlight in John Tejada's deep catalogue. Bold words indeed for a producer who is known for unexpected variation and tremendous musical imagination.

A defining moment in early 2000s minimal, Physical Fraction marked Trentemøller’s breakthrough with its razor-sharp groove and a restless sense of motion. Released in 2005 on Audiomatique, the track balances precision with an almost unhinged energy, tight percussion and warped synth stabs twist around a rolling, bass-heavy framework, building tension with surgical control. While rooted in minimal techno, there’s an unmistakable rawness in its execution, a hint of electro-infused chaos that sets it apart from the era’s more sterile productions. This was Trentemøller before the cinematic melancholy, crafting club music that felt alive, unpredictable, and utterly magnetic.

Ma version de soma par Contrefaçon pour le concours de remix !
On croise les doigts !


Contrefaçon : soma remix

Hidden truth beneath the rain
Whispered softly, clear, yet plain
Always near, yet out of sight
Waiting patient for the light

Echoes hum through passing years
Drowned by doubt, by noise, by fears
Silent answer, calm and still
Right before us, bending will

Now the veil begins to tear
Clarity hangs in the air
What we sought was always near
Known at last—forever here

Like with his KAFKATRAX efforts, WOLFGANG VOIGT continues his research of the human voice, this time in shape of an opera singer that dives into an enchanted ambient techno track. "Frieden" ("Peace") couldn't be more aptly titled.
