You may ask: "In the day and age of streaming playlists and the omnipresence of freely available mixes, what's the use of a label compilation?" The answer is simple: labels still serve as a dearly needed filter mechanism in this tsunami of music we're facing every day. Labels strive to establish trust between artists and listeners. They're like your favorite restaurant around the corner. On the spur of the moment, you might find more excitement in that hip place that just opened somewhere else. But when the novelty fades, you'll always return to your sanctuary. The safe place where they know your name and the last drink is on the house. KOMPAKT has become such a place for generations of fans and artists alike. And the TOTAL compilation series serves as its menu: always changing but instantly recognizable.

As per usual TOTAL is a collection of the past years biggest tunes, the creme de la creme of KOMPAKT's steady output of 12"s topped off with eight exclusive unreleased tracks that are also available on the 2LP vinyl edition of TOTAL 19.

With JÜRGEN PAAPE, the notorious VOIGT brothers, THOMAS/MAYER and JÖRG BURGER - all founding fathers are on board. Legacy artists SASCHA FUNKE and JUSTUS KÖHNCKE make their long-awaited comebacks, the latter with a kinky Patrick Cowley homage called "Mindless Sex Track". Cologne young blood JULIAN STETTER nails the starry-eyed, romantic KOMPAKT signature sound with his remix for an up and coming local pop outfit called ALBERT LUXUS. Fellow Colonian JONATHAN KASPAR makes his label debut with his slinky track "Renard". DJ BALDUIN definitely is one to watch in 2020. His massive "E.W.B.A." transcends the friendly populism of an ancient Love Parade anthem while capturing the sincere spirit of today's electro revival. REX THE DOG's "Vortex" and TOM DEMAC's "Serenade" perfectly showcase why KOMPAKT is still one of the most played and charted labels in electronic music today. In a scene that is more fragmented than ever these two producers delivered true consensus hits that are cherished on all sizes and shapes of floors beyond genre boundaries.

The second half completely belongs to a whole new breed from our beloved SPEICHER series such as ANNA, YOTAM AVNI, EXTRAWELT, RAXON, BLACKRACHAS, JOHN MONKMAN and LA FLEUR alongside our full time members PATRICE BÄUMEL, KÖLSCH and GUI BORATTO. The energy levels are way up and the mission reads clearly: We'll never stop dancing this way.

La Fleur – Tears

Core Ellum Audio artist Dino Lenny returns to the label with two more of his deeply enchanting techno cuts.

As well as running his own Fine Human Records, Lenny has fine credits on landmark imprints such as Cocoon, Damian Lazarus’ Crosstown Rebels, Diynamic, Innervisions and of course Ellum Audio. He is constantly evolving and honing his sound, which is atmospheric as well as infectious. 

His work on Ellum perfectly fits in with this label’s cinematic style and that continues here.First up is ‘Beg U’, which is a superb seven-minute adventure in deep techno. A lead synth line is allowed plenty of time and space to make its impact, with rawness in the crashing hits and cosmic tension coming from the pads. All in all this is an utterly consuming dance floor experience finished off with an aloof
vocal line that echoes Depeche Mode.

 The excellent ‘Gauss’ ft Black Mami is slick future tech built on busy bass that rattles up and down the scales with real presence. Laser like synths search across the face of the track and it all builds to a rapturous peak that will have the floor going wild.

Pau Pelo - Cucayo (Original Mix)

Last spotted rocking the massive ‘Odysseus’ on Astropolis, complete with a full strength Marc Romboy remix, Bedrock and Ovum affiliate Oniris now makes his second slam on Marc’s label Systematic with three more supersized interplanetary trips…

‘Contact’ direct dials your soul with its crisp arpeggios flailing like tentacles, gradually wrapping around you, squeezing you and pulling you deeper and deep into space. It’s followed by ‘Aliens’… And judging by the tumultuous momentum and bassline grit, it’s not a friendly encounter. Tense, edgy and rough; there’s a classic early 90s Tresor style coded deep in this groove.

Last but not least ‘Orbiter’ marks the slow sojourn home through deep black space and bright twinkling stars. Expect a little cosmic turbulence here and there thanks to the rolling beats and voluminous subs. Another stunning trip from Systematic and Oniris. Safe travels.

Marc Romboy: "I‘m so glad to have Oniris‘ newest EP on Systematic Recordings. With his connection to Astropolis and the talent to combine real techno with musical finesse he is an outstanding artist to me.“
