++++++++++++   INSTRUMENTAL VERSION   +++++++++++

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' musical journey which took off with „WE ARE TO ANSWER“ and continued with „INTO BASS AND TIME“ now enters another sphere: The duo's all-new remix compilation „THEMES FROM TOMORROWLAND“ rounds up a strong circle of producers from all corners of the earth for dedicated interpretations of both albums' retro-futurist grooves.

Whether hailing from the US (DDAY ONE, NICKODEMUS, MAKER), the UK (DIESLER), France (AZAXX, HUGO KANT), Greece (CAYETANO, FLECK, KILL EMIL), Slovenia (JK SOUL) or the ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' homebase of Germany (PROTASSOV, RAZOOF) – the featured remixers have all been chosen for the friendship and admiration they've shared with the 'nauts.

Based on the ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS' original material recorded with notable voices such as AKUA NARU, ASPHATE, AZEEM, BAJKA, MONSOON, RAASHAN AHMAD or THE PHARCYDE, the remixing artists present their soundscapes, ranging from dubby DOWNTEMPO GROOVES through eclectic JAZZ BREAKS, hefty DUB and DANCEHALL or slamming DRUM & BASS to downright HIP HOP.

The single new ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS track on „THEMES FROM TOMORROWLAND“ is its opener alongside rapper ASPHATE and cuts from DJ TOUCHNICE of the US crew MAXILLA BLUE: „THE ENEMY WITHIN“ is setting the scene for the album's innovative, colourful spectrum of grooves and sounds which is, in the end, so ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS.

SWITCHSTANCE RECORDINGS 
Quality music for advanced listeners!

"Switchstance" is taken from the culture of boardsports, meaning the skill used to change the stance (easily) by switching one's foot position. The stance in freestyle Snowboarding or Skateboarding, is either riding in "regular" (left foot forward) or "goofy" (right foot forward) position. This identifies a really skilled rider and opens up a whole new world of trick combinations.

The label's creed and therefore the style of its producers and DJs is to have ultimate freedom, whether in their musical movements or in "switching" between various styles. The aim of the label is to combine early musical influences such as Funk, Jazz, Latin, 90´s Hip Hop and Reggae with the most progressive techniques of electronic music production in order to create a new dynamic sound that pays respect to the diverse cultures it comes from. It is the soundtrack of the lives of artists that dedicate their time and energy to produce cutting-edge grooves for a conscious and openminded generation.

Inspired by the label members' and friends' lifestyles in music, boardsports, arts and travels; the sound of Switchstance is always in motion and reflects a unique vision and attitude towards modern life.
