Simon Baker - Plastik (Todd Terje Remix) - Kompakt Records

Soaring with the spirit of classic big-band swing, "Air Mail Special" bursts to life in this exhilarating piano rendition. Originally made famous by Benny Goodman's iconic orchestra, this wordless piano version channels the same breakneck energy and joyful spontaneity that defined the Swing Era.

Fingers fly across the keys in a whirlwind of syncopated rhythms and dazzling improvisations, perfectly capturing the song's original "air mail" urgency. The melody zips and dives with playful precision, while the left hand's walking basslines keep the momentum racing forward. Brief lyrical respites offer moments of bluesy warmth before the tempo kicks back into high gear.

More than just a technical showcase, this piano arrangement preserves the contagious excitement of the original while adding fresh harmonic colors. It's a musical telegram delivered with swingin' flair – perfect for lighting up jazz clubs, energizing dancers, or bringing vintage charm to any listening experience.

Would you like me to emphasize certain aspects like historical context, performance techniques, or mood variations? Happy to fine-tune this description!

John Talabot and Axel Boman teamed up in 2017 for their R&S debut ’The Night Land’ where they got to flex their creative muscles over eight tracks of rich synth jams.  

The two electronic artists have been independently successful in their respective careers, but as Pitchfork expressed in their glowing review “Their collective output doesn’t sound much like either’s work; it doesn’t even necessarily reflect the thin, convex sliver where their interests overlap. Instead, they’ve hit upon something new.”

This new sound also proved to be a hit with the likes of Mojo, Phonica, XLR8R, Self Titled and DJ Mag all including it their annual best of lists.

The artists have now handpicked four artists to create their own vision of the Talaboman sound.  
Superpitcher, Samo DJ, Luke Slater under his L.B. Dub Corp alias and Powder have all seriously delivered the goods.

Talaboman - Dins El Llit - Superpitcher Remix

What makes this producer so unique is the deep, deep disco house, kissed by spheric, warm and psychedelic influences which he seems to find much more in 70`s Space Rock than in Chicago House or Detroit Techno like so many others.. And this is what he does on this record in just such a banning way.
John Daly lives in Galway / Ireland and founded his own label “feel music” in 2005.

John Daly - Solitaire (IRR001)

-	Shell-shocked by a compilation of Chicago House that his elder brother gave him, music pupil Roman from Darmstadt became interested in electronic music.
-	Visits to Sven Väth’s Omen in Frankfurt and nights spent with Underground Resistance or Warp turned his whole world upside down. LFO’s bass still massages his stomach region to this very day.
-	The first demo tape is given to Jörn Elling Wuttke, who is thrilled and leaves his others bands to join forces in a project with Roman.
-	Together they pay a visit to Ata and Heiko MSO. The latter work as DJs and sellers in Frankfurt’s Delirium and can hardly believe their ears. They are delighted to set their A&amp;R activities (Ongaku, Klang) in motion.
-	For Holy Garage “Surprise”, which also appeared on Eye Q, they found the Playhouse label, later to become the flagship of the label triumvirate and one of the most influential labels in Germany.
-	Time flies in the nineties with working on the label and the success of the projects Alter Ego and Sensorama. Roman also does solo projects under the name Soylent Green, Eight Miles High, Ro 70, Roman IV and his real name. The spectrum ranges from nosebleed techno to delicate ambient and electro-pop tunes.
-	Sven Väth asks Alter Ego to be his producer.
-	Remixes for Daft Punk, Radio Slave, Primal Scream, Ricardo Villalobos, The Human League, Spektrum, Tiefschwarz, Baby Ford, Chicks On Speed, and many others.
-	Alter Ego beats all the records with “Rocker” and Roman provides a worthy successor with “Geht’s Noch!?”.
-	Live appearances all over the world and Roman becomes increasingly popular as a DJ. His sets comprise 20 years of rave in one breath of techno, house, Italo-disco and obscurities. It goes by the name of acid house.
