Zusammenklang-Different Places

We understand you've had a tough week at work, so as an extra special "well done", we've got a full album exclusive today. The latest LP from Zusammenklang, Different Places showcases the German's talent for smooth, thoughtful dance music, seamlessly blending both deep and tech house, and techno throughout.

Promising "joyful melodies... despondent vocals and chilly synths" Different Places, sits perfectly on the fence between light and dark. Abyssal bass drives the LP, creating cohesion below the twinkling, ghostly sonics that define each track. Zusammenklang crafts rich textures so enveloping that the album demands to be put on repeat.

Out September 9th via Oliver Schories' SOSO imprint, Different Places proves a solid follow up to Zusammenklang's 2013 debut LP Tagtraum. The producer has developed and his sound with it, pushing power and depth to the top of his skill set.

Longevity for the most part, is not something that's usually associated with electronic music, a genre that moves so fast and often leaves those who stop to pause for breadth in its wake. The very best of course, adapt to the changing soundscape, with those that maintain subtle and dedicated agendas usually the same ones that last the pace. Such is the case with Leipzig label Moon Harbour, an imprint that's treated us to a host of veritable house gems over the years whilst still maintaining a firm, underground aesthetic.

Having recently turned fifteen, head honcho Matthias Tanzmann gave us some insight into the enduring appeal of his outlet, explaining that it’s the family vibe they enjoy within the label that keeps thing fresh. “I was still pretty young when we started the label in 2000, so we have all grown up together for 15 years now.  Moon Harbour is like my child. I am happy many artists joined the family or became good friends and that the label has become a home for all of us.”

It's this sense of family that shines through on Moon Harbour's new compilation, 15 Years Of Moon Harbour, which comprised of 13 tracks from artists both new and old offers efforts from the likes of Gregor Tresher, Daniel Stefanik, Luna City Express and label boss Tanzamann himself.

Our Debut Transmission today however comes from  Steve Bug. Needing no introduction, the Poker Flat founder has been a key player for the label over the past decade and a half and opens the compilation in style with fresh cut 'Lifting The Anchor'. Classic 'Bug' fare, it's guaranteed to get you thawing out those boogying muscles.
