Down High Tempo Vibes by Mista Musto, love your dope :)

“Einsteigen Bitte!”

After more than six years of collaboration between label and artist, Feines Tier and Luca Musto bring to you the highly anticipated first full length LP “Nice Place, Bad Intentions”.

Musto’s first LP “Nice Place Bad Intentions” departs from the conventional 4/4 time signature. Instead, the album’s structure and the tracks themselves are reminiscent of a 1990s/2000s Hip Hop long play release. This becomes evident in the fact that the LP not only features 17 tracks, including skits and interludes, but also that they make up the framework of a conceptual album. Here, listeners will be encouraged to follow the track list and listen to “Nice Place, Bad Intentions” in one go.

“Nice Place, Bad Intentions” was produced over a period of 1,5 years. Besides the majority being original samples and vocals from Luca Musto, the LP also features a number of studio musicians, including bass players, trumpeters and guitarists. Cologne-based guitarist Simon Bahr can be found on several tracks, including the three singles “Infiltrate”, “Boogie Angst” and “Real Name, No Gimmicks”. Moreover, the skits and interludes are spoken by professional voice actors from the US and Canada.

The Berlin-themed album follows the characters Mick and Richie, who are all about partying and come to the city for one weekend in hopes to have the time of their lives. When the characters’ expectations meet reality, their naiveté (or bad intentions) lead them to getting screwed, robbed and even arrested. These stories about their journey through Germany’s capital are found in the interludes and skits. Listeners can follow them passing infamous places and metro stations in the city based on sampled BVG announcements, which gives the album a radio play vibe.

Sound-wise, Luca Musto’s unique sounds include scratched hooks that meet original lyrics and melodies, resulting in distinctive genre-bending tunes. As Mick and Richie stumble through some of Berlin’s most infamous places, their expectations repeatedly clash with the reality of the capital’s nightlife. Similarly the listeners’ expectations are twisted and turned. Yet, the soundtrack underlining the characters’ journey never disappoints and brings its listeners on a rhythmic trip of old and new sounds. From rapping on downtempo as in “City of Grind” to merging the classic structure of electronic music with funky guitar licks and unconventional chord transitions as in “Infiltrate”, the LP feels at once like a daring experiment and like the beginning of a developing new genre.

Nice Place, Bad Intentions

Bohemian Journey

We know @harrycharles since several years through his involvement with our dear friends Kahl & Kaemena. Beginning this year he created a lovely track for us and with ÜNAM & Seba Campos we found two ideal remixers for this EP. Enjoy and embrace the summer together with us.

“Real name, no gimmicks,” the title of Luca Musto’s latest single says it all. The chill downtempo track initiates the album and sets the groove for what's to come. With a combination of Hip Hop elements, Simon Bahr playing the guitar and original piano licks and keys by Musto, the purely instrumental track keeps its promise--real name, no gimmicks!”

Premiere: Luca Musto - Real Name, No Gimmicks [feines Tier]

With the next LP single from "Nice Place, Bad Intentions" - City Of Grind sets the mood fusing rap vocals with deep atmosphere and raw 90s hip hop influence. Including scratched hooks that meet original lyrics and chopped samples, resulting in a distinctive genre-bending track. With an unexpected Outro made straight for laid back night drive situations, like the album, this record is all about attention and reflection when having a full listen.

We hope you enjoy this track as much as we do.

Oh, hi you! 

Almost didn't see you there... You weren't sneaking up on us, were you? 
If you've followed us so closely, you might have noticed, it's been already three years of Drosssel shenanigans. 
But we're not too keen on birthdays ourselves, we rather celebrate someone else for a change. 

Since the temperatures are rising and people start gathering around fires and dancing like they perform occult rites, we give you a selection of voodoolicious tunes, straight out of Dunkeldeutschland: 

@Paul-Traeumer — Voodoo Volume 

Darkness and light, safety and fright in the form of sound — slow, not so slow, not so fast — it was about time to broaden your horizon a little more, don't you think? Beware of the basslines, and let those distorted vocals lead you into complete disarray, before the sun is rising again. 

A mysterious 4-track EP, accompanied by 3 lovely and wildly intoxicating remixes. Mexican trip advisor Isaac Soto and Voll Schön's Etcha, each came up with a completely different interpretation "Goldstück", while Daensen and Danger Dave make their first appearance as DAENGER and have a go at "Astronauten & Fliegen". 

Better start collecting fire wood.

Bringing you slow and futuristic nostalgia all the way from the depth of Scandinavian lakes. Where Lochness goes for vacation, and the devil hibernates at tantra retreats. Leaving tears we all recognize.

Angels, 

Welcome to a premiere that is very close to our heart. The love for many musicians started at the 40 Katzen Tanzen Aufm Tisch. The fourtieth birthday celebration of MIRA. 

With the ongoing pandemic we would miss out on all these musical wonders, if she did not collaborate with all the artists for a very special compilation. 

We are most honoured to premiere the track by O/Y - Hunger (Original Mix). A stunning track in the line of his work. So so happy. Please enjoy, support the community and find all the links to the track and the compilation below.

Mira: "For the past ten years now, I’ve celebrated my birthdays by inviting all my favorite cats to play – we started off at Kater Holzig before moving to our home at Kater Blau in 2015. For the first time since it started, and for obvious reasons, 43 Katzen tanzen auf’m Tisch won’t be happening, on what would have been the tenth anniversary of the series. I’ve been wondering for a while now how I can make up for the missed year - streams already feel a bit outdated, and you just can’t imagine the vibe of the event without actually being there, getting beautifully lost in those days and nights, hugging old friends and making new ones. You can’t even explain that feeling, so you definitely can’t live-stream it.

Instead, this year 43 Katzen tanzen auf’m Tisch will be a compilation of some of the amazing artists from the past ten years, and even some of the new faces I would have booked this year. In a way, it’s the perfect souvenir of all the nights we’ve had so far, and an idea of what to look forward to in all the nights to come at Kater Blau somewhere in the future.

The compilation will be split into two sections: Heinz Hopper and Acidbogen, reflecting the two floors of Kater Blau, each with their own special flavor and sound. The whole record is programmed the way I would schedule the artists across the two floors for my birthday, warming up at the start before things start getting more intense later on. I guess you could say it’s a concept album, in which the audience
wanders into our lovely little circus on the river Spree, and experiences one of my birthdays from start to finish, split across both floors of Kater Blau. Much like my parties and my sets, the idea is for the listener to get lost in these tracks and to experience them as a whole piece. At the end of it all you leave with a feeling that maybe, just maybe, cats & music were the answers after all. Even in times like these."

Love to all the people involved,

The Gardens of Babylon

Luca Musto is an enthusiast of soul, jazz and blues, his electronic music/’slow- house’ oozes of grooving beats and hypnotizing melodies. With his Italian roots reflecting rhythms through cracks in a musical mirror, these cozy, grounded atmospheres will set you up to lay back, relax, and dance: this paradox perhaps best encapsulates the complexity of Musto’s grooves. 

Where other artists rely on established formulas and resort to complacency, Musto embodies the opposite. Based in the dungeons of Berlin, he coalesces the city’s unique musical footprint with his own nuances and projects them into his music as a symphony of impressions. His catalogue merges the resilience of modernity with authenticity and the musical preferences of our generation with subtlety, so that it never feels to be listening to just another record. 

Instead, it invokes in fans of electronic music a feeling of familiarity and expertise, which is reflected in his creative sampling and merging influences. With each new release, the listener can’t help but notice that Luca doesn’t take his talent for granted, but as basis for higher aspirations.
