The seventh episode of the Based On Misunderstanding series is a true show-stopper! Last summer the ultra hot duo Manhooker (Tomasz - Guiddo' Switala and Sebastian - Mavin' Magassouba) hooked up in their studio with Snax (Paul Bonomo and 1/2 of Captain Comatose) to crank out some new jams; the first being this veritable late summer hit, 'Cloud 9.' Their first 12inch on Ostgut Ton caused such a burst of enthusiasm, and the hype will only be fueled with this release. This is pop music at its best with lots of soul for the more sophisticated dance floors.

We can't think of a more appropriate remixer for this sensitive tune than Justus Köhncke. The Cologne based producer aims more directly to the club, but doesn't take the soul nor Snax' captivating synth solo out of the track. It's another magnum opus in Köhnckes already superior portfolio of remixes.

On the flipside we got a 'Special Deal.' Here you can hear Snax' presence even more boldly as his affection for 80's electro-funk meets the adorable soul of Mavin's voice. Would 'Cloud 9' not already be a stupendous stand-out track, you'd have to speak of 'Deal' as the definite sure shot. Airplay guaranteed!

For the - M1 Space Dub' version Manhooker used the legendary Patch #17, Organ 2 of the Korg M-1 (of Robin S' - Show Me Love' fame from 1990), spreading this way some magic dust on the track to make it even deeper.

And then we have one of the best DJs from Brazil added to the game. Marcio Vermelho from Sao Paolo is widely known by now across the borders of South America for his stylistically confindent mix of Nu Disco, Boogie, Funk and sentimental house. This right here is one of his first official remixes but it won't be his last one, that's for sure!

Cloud 9

Manhooker & Snax - Cloud 9 (Justus Köhncke Remix)

Buy/stream: https://kompakt.fm/releases/total_22

It’s common knowledge that KOMPAKT’s TOTAL series serves as our yearbook, a musical wrap up of the past 12 months. Therefore it doesn’t come as a surprise that this year’s edition is informed by another pandemic year, where dancefloors were still mostly deserted and the devastating developments in Eastern Europe. Kompakt’s A&R team still kept on foot on the imaginary dancefloor, while scouting different realms apart from the big room euphoria. Anyway, brain dance has always been a key ingredient to our catalogue.

The Voigt brothers are opening this year´s vinyl edition in an unusually romantic fashion. ‘Why’ combines a bubbly FM bassline with lush washes of looped guitars. High off the (presumably high) heels of her recent album ‘Jesus Was An Alien’ she delivers a spanking new excursion into her sonic world, ‘The Hill’. Our Mexican friend Rebolledo makes his first ever solo appearance on TOTAL with his trademark hypnotic desert sound. Jürgen Paape is calling a spade a spade with ‘Le Monde À Changé’ – The world has changed indeed. Our prodigal son, Matias Aguayo, returns to the mothership with ‘Cinco Y Rojo’. An exercise in Chicago-esque groove theory paired with a cheeky visitor from Denmark. Spot the reference and win a pair of hooves. It’s hard to find a quality party around Cologne without Jonathan Kaspar on its bill. Rightly so, as he continues to hone his craft as an impeccable DJ and producer. Michael gives the tremendously talented Danish singer songwriter eee gee a proper Mayer treatment and Kompakt founding member Jörg Burger closes off the festivities with a groovy midtempo chugger that reminisces ‘Blue Lines’ era Massive Attack as much as the late Andy Weatheralls low slung psychedelia.

Jonathan Kaspar - Where Am I

A bunch of different remixes which I just dug out of my I-Tunes. Some new, some old, mostly pretty low-res MP3s. But you get the get the idea. My favourites are the Carl Craig / Paperclip People one and the Dominik Eulberg one. How about you?? Felix
