Achievements Unlocked - July '14

Singles #2

Thomas' joint effort with Mono & Joel, released by Oliver Schories label 'der turnbeutel', and has been well-received, causing our expectations of this young musician living in Leipzig to grow.
Justifiably so! Thomas Scholz is currently working on releasing his first solo-EP. 'asle-ep' is slated to appear under the label O*RS and includes distinctive original songs and fantastic remixes.

'I break free' showcases the unbelievable versatility of Thomas Scholz's musical ability. Using dreamy, classical melodies paired harmoniously with vocals mostly heard throughout the metal genre, this song best represents this indefinable talent's bold rise.

Through it's memorable composition, 'Mimesis' (Ancient Greek: mimic, imitate) achieves an indescribable affect on both the listener's ears and reason which can only be attributed to the tracks fascinating sound.
Literal mimicry is not what this track is about, as it is one of a kind.

O*RS presents the first Solo Ep from Thomas Scholz,and includes distinctive original songs and fantastic remixes.

The remixes of these tracks by Filburt, rampue and Powel promise to be an acoustic cornucopia, also. And as though that wasn't enough, Thomas Scholz together with his good friend and musician from Leipzig iami give us musical caresses with 'Cafuné'. Appearing as a bonus track on the EP, it is a compelling conclusion to his first album.

Info: 
Exciting blend of organic and electrifiying house, ethereal melodies, encapsulates a lot of variety (as we like) remixes for the purist house heads as well as for fans of deep leftfield house or twisted groove addicts.

Marbert Rocel, the East German indie pop’n’jazz sensation and live band just brought their third album “Small Hours” to life, capturing a deep sense for beats, smoking, songs, indie pop trips including leftfield house- and jazzy affairs. As Groove magazine wrote “...an album finally progressed their own stunning charm into a higher sphere of danceable indie pop”. Well, it’s true, Marbert Rocel music is light and sunny, but they working hard with patience, belief, a lot of cigarettes, and dozens of live gigs around Europe, to spread their charm with passion and a wicked glints in their eyes. There is this lack of pretention in their music which everybody loves, actually people from the techno, soul, jazz or pop worlds even all seems to be convinced. Together with Mathias Kaden, they formed the project Karocel and released the highly acclaimed album “Plaited” on Freude Am Tanzen.

Marek Hemmann has grown into the electronic music as a hunter, collector and true connaisseur of tones and sonics. It all began in the beginning of the 90’s with a guitar whose sonic spectrum was far too limited for him. The discovery of the samplers and the synthesizers suddenly opened new possibilities where the acoustic world could be conserved; it was now possible with sound and noise on synthesizers to create what the human ear has never before experienced. The reason for the sonic passion was delivered to him via the techno parties late 90’s in his home area of Gera which was soon a weekly anchor for electronic experimentation. Here was to be found deep and delightful connections with people, rhymes, light and sounds. Until the first live gigs would come just a few years later, he made music for himself and his flat mates. This emboldened him to eventually begin to play his music live, leaving behind self-doubt and found with his first gig his calling as a live act. From then on he refined and improved his sets from which grew the distinctive Marek Hemmann sound; a sound with a minimum on technique but rather a very wide diversity of noise and tonal sensibility. The result is a substantially reduced electronic dance music which having a solid house foundation orbits its original state. Deep bass meets voice fragments, shakers, and percussion carry the rhythm; a funky minimal techno with plenty of space for other musical elements. Always on the search for the perfect groove and catchy melodies which fit snug and comfy in the ear. Since 2005 Marek Hemmann lives in Jena where his home, studio and label are in the immediate vicinity. Here he has the required distance for travel on the weekends, the locale allows for inspiration from the student life, and his creativity to flourish. After innumerable remixes and a handful of singles, in fall 2009 his debut album ‘In Between’ was published on the label Freude am Tanzen.

Philipp Stoya first musical experience started in the well known club "Kassablanca" which is strongly linked to a famous local label, he explored clubs like "Muna", Leipzigs "Distillery", Hamburgs "BaalSaal", Berlin ́s "Kleine Reise" or notorious "Berghain", After his first released track "Triohu" on Compost Black Label #83, Philipp decided to take a little distance from clubbing and get more focused on producing. He lingers this summer at "Fusion Festival" sitting right next to the "Turmbühne" where he thought about what Christian Prommer said: "It is not about getting coolness, it ́s about to be satisfied with your own production and see how the music reaches the people on a emotional level.“ Philipp’s tune „Ransd“ i spart oft he Compost Black Label Series Vol.5 – compilation and he also just delivered some nice remix works for Madpac (Black Label #101) and Siff Licious’ „Fisten“ on the new imprint Glenn Dancer.

As a founder and member of Marbert Rocel, Panthera Krause just started to channel his own immense creative output by releasing his solo debut EP „Yorikke“ earlier this year on Riotvan. Further he ́s a talented graphic designer being responsible for the wonderful artworks that decorate the album releases, website, videos etc. of Marbert Rocel and also the Karocel album.

Talski is a young musician/producer from Leipzig (Germany). He was born in 1991 and grew up in a family with an affinity for classical and jazz music, so he began to play the piano and saxophon soon. Now he’s studying music in Leipzig. Besides his work in many bands he produces electronical music, artificially and for the dancefloor. His music is influenced by jazz, classical, house and dark techno music.

When Tobi and Bastian (Heitzberg Theorem) first met they didn’t really like each other. They basically never talked. Why? Years later nobody knows for sure. Working together didn’t make things easier. However one day, when they were forced to spend their lunch together they did talk: as it turned out both were pretty surprised how much alike they felt when it came to music. So they decided to team up and produce a couple of tracks. Bastian (born and raised in Ulm) has a straight forward musical background: he’s an educated Audio Engineer and a Bachelor of Recording Arts. As Bastian, Tobi started early with producing the musical support for his Munich-based poetry label Perplex. After a creative but very frustrating phase of combining their different musical styles (a broad variety from Drum ‘n’ Bass, to House, Techno, UK Garage and Post-Dubstep) they threw all of their initial ideas away and started from scratch. As a result Heitzberg Theorem now concentrates on what’s really important to them: producing bassy, heavy and danceable UK-influenced house music. Watch out and listen to their fantastic 12inch on Compost Black Label # 102.

Both Pete Bandit and Jason Shae have been playing music for over a decade. They got infected with the ‘virus’ after hearing their first tracks over at a friends house and they’ve been ‘sick’ ever since. The first years it was techno, techno and techno. Looking up to guys like Plastikman, James Ruskin and Speedy J, it was understandable that they also made the transition to minimal, or microhouse like it was called back in the 2003 days. Pete Bandit & Jason Shae kept on exploring their own personal tastes of music and playing records was the best way to do so. They found each other in a mix of French funk, Chicago house and stripped down Berlin house. The duo’s fame as DJs is growing larger gig by gig. Stealing the heart of every party freak, bass addict and music lover with a great, steady, rocking groove that takes us back to the Chicago, Miami and New York sounds from the past. Their careers are blooming, but their potentials haven’t fully been used yet; without doubt we will hear a lot more from these two in the following years!

Blonde - Higher Ground (feat. Charli Taft) [KANT Remix]

More than one year ago, the exceptionally gifted and consummate musician Thomas Scholz veered away from familiar analog territory and took his first steps into the world of electronic music with his 'Auto biographical TUNEs'.

He might have left Metal Hardcore behind, but not his talent, voice or his ability on both the guitar and piano! Completely the opposite, he has been able to raise the bar and has been actively creating unique pieces with a one of a kind character - inspired by life and transposed into melodies and lyrics.

It is not surprising that his talent was quickly discovered, and collaborations with Patty Kay, rampue, LOCO (to name a few) were set in motion.
His current work together with Stefan Trummer leads us to hope for a release of their long-planned album.

Thomas' joint effort with Mono & Joel, released by Oliver Schories label 'der turnbeutel', and has been well-received, causing our expectations of this young musician living in Leipzig to grow.
Justifiably so! Thomas Scholz is currently working on releasing his first solo-EP. 'asle-ep' is slated to appear under the label O*RS and includes distinctive original songs and fantastic remixes.

'I break free' showcases the unbelievable versatility of Thomas Scholz's musical ability. Using dreamy, classical melodies paired harmoniously with vocals mostly heard throughout the metal genre, this song best represents this indefinable talent's bold rise.

Rewind: 1989. Germany is enjoying its own summer of love. Thick waves of acid house wash every oompah band out of every sleepy German hamlet and a hazy season of heady parties ensues. West and east united by vibe, it was the starter course for the reunification feast the followed later that year.

According to German rave legend, the south eastern town of Halle was home to the finest of raves. Many of which were hosted by Opa Herbet. Super Flu Felix's grandpappy, and Monaberry's number one mascot, Herbert - aged 50 at the time - was renowned around town as THE key player in the acid house movement.

You see he wasn't just a savvy promoter, but also a deeply spiritual gentleman. He knew his grandson would fulfil a rich dance music destiny, he knew his family would create and contribute to the life-affirming world of house music. So he set up Monaberry, a label in waiting for his future generations.

An insightful fella, especially for his age, he knew Monaberry would enjoy unique success. He knew they would develop a firm pact of like-minded creative souls. He knew they'd host endless global parties, develop an extensive repertoire of beautiful, emotive, tech-laced house and enjoy the full support from A-list DJs. He could feel all of this in his rickety old bones. He also knew they'd release this stunning collection of exclusives...

Featuring Monaberry's most consistent friends and introducing two new family members (The Glitz and Benn Finn), '25 Years Monaberry' is an ageless document that not only showcases the label's highly distinctive range and remit, but also celebrates the very roots of house music. Robust rhythms, slinky synths, stark sonic contrasts and endless holes of introspective soul... Whether you're new to the label, or like grand old Opa himself you've had a feeling about these playful German cats a quarter of a century ago, '25 Years Monaberry' sums up everything that's great about the music we adore from a label we love...

The soft sentimental strings of Benn Finn's 'Oil In The Ocean'. The hazy harmonies and funky falsettos of Super Flu's 'Oooooh'. The poignant, rainy day chord swoops and alley-lurking sub bass of Monkey Safari's 'Middlestreet'. The unfettered positivity of AndHim's piano-slapping riff marathon 'Melte'. The dark grunts and muscular shuffles of The Glitz's stuttering, wailing tech funker 'Nineteen'. The glistening, guitar-gilded sunset serenade of Martin Waslewski's 'Floading' . The vocal insistency and the hypnotic effect of classical house rudiments on Hanne & Lore's 'Lakepeople'. The elephantine swing, short sharp jazz-blasts and techno trickery of Cascandy's 'Rammeln'. The deep bass bubbles and Detroitian string staccato of Dapayk Solo's 'Flying Mona'... Each of these exclusive tracks represents Monaberry at its deepest, most delicious and timeless. And we guarantee they'll still sound ace in 25 years time.

25 years is a long time in any game. But in the music industry It's an eternity. But as long as there are wise old geezers like Opa behind the scenes, we'll surf the endless ocean of years with style.

Super Flu - Ooooooh
Monkey Safari - Middlestreet
Andhim - Melte
The Glitz - Nineteen
Martin Waslewski Feat. Sascha Reske - Floading
Hanne & Lore - Lakepeople
Cascandy - Rammeln
Dapayk Solo - Flying Mona
