2.Monoloc - Fake Tears- VRIL Remix

Live recorded at Robert Johnson, NYE 2013/14

Ata - Robert Johnson, NYE 2013/14

'You Are Gods’ is the first single to be unveiled from the lush new debut album from British synth wizard James Holden and Polish clarinet guru Waclaw Zimpel (Saagara, Shackleton).  

Holden & Zimpel continue their fruitful collaboration with the blissful escapism of ‘The Universe Will Take Care Of You’: a deeply emotive warm and fuzzy delight. 
The rich textures and beguiling sound palette of the entrancing 'The Universe...' roams freely between bucolic pastorals, insistent arpeggios and shimmering euphoria. 

Embracing the playful, experimental approach of their Krautrock forefathers to explore their deepest improvisational urges, this is the joyful convergence of two likeminded masters of their craft, weaving in violin, percussion, lap steel guitar and the Indian twin pipe algoza flute amongst the expected modular synth and clarinet. 

For fans of: Harmonia, Cluster, Eno & Fripp.

Stochastic Drift

Force of Habit

In 2045, researchers at MindTech discovered an anomaly in neural networks used for direct data transmission into the human brain. They called this phenomenon “Phantom Scripts” — mysterious glitches in the code that activate when a person falls asleep or closes their eyes. Deprived of visual stimuli, the brain becomes more receptive and starts responding to internal impulses from the neuro-interface, generating unexpected images and phrases, as if creating messages from the void.

Analysis revealed that these scripts are particularly active during deep sleep or meditation, when the mind is most vulnerable to external influence, as though an intelligent force is attempting to communicate through the subconscious. What lies behind these messages and why they appear remains unknown. Perhaps the answers are hidden in the darkness itself.

Joyce Muniz – "Hack The System featuring Futuradora"
Label: Kompakt
Release Date: July 2025

Renowned for her genre-blending approach and sharp production skills, Brazilian-Austrian artist Joyce Muniz returns to Kompakt with her powerful new single, "Hack The System." This track marks a bold artistic statement that goes beyond the dancefloor, merging infectious electronic rhythms with a deeper socio-political message.

Featuring vocals by Futuradora, "Hack The System" is a call to awareness—an urgent and rhythmic critique of structural inequalities and digital surveillance culture. With pulsing basslines and hypnotic synth work, Muniz crafts a track that is as politically charged as it is club-ready.

This is Muniz’s second release on Kompakt, following the critically acclaimed "Beats & Lines" with Sara Bluma. Where that track explored personal connection, "Hack The System" speaks to a collective resistance and the need for systemic change, aligning with Muniz’s roots in underground culture and activism.

"Hack The System" will be available via Kompakt’s digital platforms and streaming services.

Flug 8 & Khan Of Finland - Melt On The Beach

Sometimes it takes a while for new collaborations to take form. As is the case here with »Melt On The Beach« by Flug 8 alias Daniel Herrmann and Khan Of Finland alias Can Oral. Both met nearly 25 years ago while contributing works for Playhouse back then: Daniel was asked by LARJ label boss Ata - back then busy running Playhouse - to contribute to the design of the first Captain Comatose album »Going Out«. Captain Comatose was a funky little project started by Can and musical friend Snax. The guys liked Daniel's works and thus never lost touch.

Fast forward 20 years later when a phone call started the idea of exchanging musical material between Frankfurt (Daniel's home back then) and Berlin (Can's home base) via the internet. Both wanted to experiment making music together without being in the same physical space — no problem in these times - but would it work?

At first a small collection of individual pieces emerged, gradually taking shape and evolving. That this could actually work surprised both. When Can spontaneously created a megamix, condensing all the material into two long tracks, both new it would work indeed.

The result right before your eyes and ears displays a...  more

BAILE’s 3rd volume of Ambient Selections attempts to channel springtime in upstate New York. The villages are thawing and the bitter cold is giving way to warmth – lagging behind most of the US, but warmth comes nonetheless. There’s a joy in it but a bittersweet memory of snowfall and the rivers and lakes freezing over. 

Pianos scatter and cascade as synths swell and glitch across the soundscape in the lead single ‘Heaven in Time’. The piece was written as an ode to the morning and glimpsing the sun as it first peaks over the horizon – it feels like catching a glance at heaven.

First single from my upcoming album Sirius Syntoms (out May 23).
“Cirkl” is symbolic for me – it marks the return of my label Feedelity, which I started in 2003. After nearly 20 years, I’ve come full circle.
The track blends my love for house, disco, and blissed-out arpeggios.

I'm Coming Back (Known Artist Remix)

Feines Tier veteran Johannes @klingebiel introduces @franz-matthews to the family and together they bring us “Ce Moment” EP, a basket of tunes full of colorful harmonies, bouncy grooves and poetic French lyrics. What more could one wish for?
The two producers and multi-instrumentalists met some years ago in their chosen
hometown Berlin and decided to fuse their producing and multi-instrumentalism game.
The first fruit of this labor was the much-loved and -played “Signs” on Heimlich records, now being followed by this EP here.
The title tune is an amalgamation of groovy electric bass riLs, spicy Prophet synth
sounds, melancholic vocals and certainly has something of that magic ingredient
people call the French Touch. A good tune to pick for House DJs who dig some Disco now and then and for Disco DJs in need of some solid House.
“La Traversée” is a crossing (multi-language pun intended) of bazillions of quirky synth sounds and melodies that somehow form a coherent whole, the sum of its part being a light and friendly but not cheesy house tune, that will make the sun go up on any dancefloor.
The mighty Kompakt overlord @michael-mayer-kompakt takes “Ce Moment” under his spell. The result is a grander and more mysterious aLair, made for bigger and darker dancefloors. The Sound of Cologne™ this is indeed!
Parisian up-and-comer @shimon-earthly adapts „La Traversée” into his sonic world. When Matthews and Shimon discussed the finished remix on the phone in French, all that le dilletant Johannes could understand from it were the words “très cool” and “after-hour vibe” , which… yes, completely tracks!

Robson Ponte isn't just anybody. And certainly not just any former top soccer player from Bayer Leverkusen, but the namesake of Reinhard Voigt's first Kompakt 12", one of the label's first big hits. Timeless, cool and unforgettable, the way this snotty, dry football field beat pushes you forward, over it, this constant, almost stoic, mantra-like rap repetition - Robson Ponte, Robson Ponte,...

That was a good 25 years ago. So it's high time to celebrate a bicycle kick with a fitting run to the goal. None other than FC Kompakt centre-forward Juergen Paape has been hired for the remix return match. In the first few minutes of the match, Paape scores with two straight disco-techno crosses and a Schaffel cross from 25 metres out. Team captain Reinhard Voigt himself seamlessly follows in the footsteps of the original - dressed in a new, stylish black, white and red sound jersey, he keeps the ball in play with aplomb. From the stands, guest of honour Thore Pfeiffer comments on a hymn-like, sacred ambient lament with an appropriate timbre.

Lads @david-hasert and Niconé ( @nicon-dantze ), who already released together on kompakt's label, are teaming up with Diode Eins member @salmjak for an allstar two tracker.
Frohes Noise is a summer driven anthem with a great piano theme and a rolling acid line. It's anything but noise – that's why we've prefixed it with the beautiful German word “Frohes,” which means nothing other than "happy". 
I Want U 6 goes straight into your brain and stays there for a while. A real ear worm! Big beat and cheeky vocals, you better be prepared!

In loving memory, we are happy to share this excerpt from Andrew Weatherall & Roman Flügel's all-nighter recorded at Robert Johnson in 2017.

Center Yourself 05 – Andrew Weatherall & Roman Flügel

CENTER YOURSELF is a podcast series curated by Robert Johnson. Each episode is created by one of our regulars—some are made for this occasion and some are hand-picked from the club's own archive.

"Recorded at Robert Johnson on the 8th of November in 2014, this mix is a mix (tautology!) of ambient appetizers, typical starter records, dance floor advances, introspective interludes and a slow approach to debauchery that followed. Or to be intellectually more lowbrow or honest and to prevent a sophomore essay about the art of the warm up: music that sounds good at the start. Thank you for listening." Gerd Janson

Center Yourself 16 – Gerd Janson

As the name states Live at Robert Johnson is the associated label of the respected venue in Offenbach and incorporates what the club stands for. The imprint has been establishing a solid ground for the new Frankfurt sound since 2009. By featuring internationally acclaimed artists LARJ has been providing DJs and audiences with essential tunes in an extensive range of high-quality house music. Laid-back dance-floor awareness with a sense for particularity in sound is what might describe best most of the releases and artists.
