Gregor Tresher feat. Sven Väth - Flashback [Turbo 233]

Turbo makes a passionate case for German representation in techno with this EP from Gregor Tresher featuring Sven Väth.

Rarity used to mean something. Limited pressings. DJ autographs. The one and only Mona Lisa. Now  that we’re dancing in the digital land of plenty, that’s all gone the way of one-night jeans. With ALL of this mind, consider the following facts about our latest EP and get ready to get rare.

- This collaboration between longtime collaborators Gregor Tresher & Sven Väth marks debuts on Turbo for both artists. Rarity Score: 9.2. Real world equivalent: an honest man in Washington, DC.

- Gregor brought the groove, while Väth performs vocals on both tracks, which is rare AND special. Rarity Score: 9.7. Real world equivalent: NFT of “Tiga’s Comet”.

- Väth rarely releases music on labels other than his own Cocoon Recordings. Rarity Score: 9.4. Real world equivalent: a handsome man in Washington, DC.

As for the music, “Flashback” instantly transports you to the exact moment you experienced ego death at an illegal rave called either “Perception Transmission” or “Morph Car.” Meanwhile, “I See You” follows through on its titular threat to validate your emotions. 

Finally, with all this talk going around about the importance of rarity, please remember that what’s truly special is the bond we share as label and listener. As far as we’re concerned, you are NOT numbers in a spreadsheet. You are NOT completely interchangeable. You are NOT the sort of people we would actively avoid in person. What you are is you’re beautiful, and that’s all that ever really matters.

Dear Friends,

25 years of KOMPAKT is no reason to get hysterical. Then again, it’s a nice occasion to have a laid back look at the situation in electronic music today. Minimal techno in all it's varieties is now established as the worlds best dance music, as you may know. So far, so good. What’s next? Nothing. Dance on!

I’ve gain two essential insights with the passage of time. First off, that music which over the years only knew “faster, better, stronger” and “forwards ever – backwards never” can constantly repeat, quote and loop itself without killing itself. A music that suspends the meaning of time and eventually can set a parallel, better universe of fantasy against the twisted grimaces of reality. Again and again.

And secondly, that getting older living in/with this music is a quite relative term to which ideally a serenity of age can ring a bell. This shows that 25 years after 1993 so many protagonists, enthusiasts, DJs, musicians, relentlessly rave fighters – with all personal advancement – are still there and still celebrate, play or produce this/theirs music; and compete themselves and their music just with that.

Two such heroes of the neat and tidy bass drum culture are with no doubt T.RAUMSCHMIERE aka MARCO HAAS and REINHARD VOIGT. From day one, those two figureheads have given live-techno the glam of stage-diving rock ‘n’ roll, long before vodka and beer prevailed as alternative lube for ecstatic dancefloors.

Even better they both now raise the glass at the longest techno-bar in the world named KOMPAKT EXTRA/SPEICHER. With DREI MILLIONEN KÖLSCH, Reinhard Voigt continues to establish his savvy “way into sound”, which he's pursued for a few years now on his many releases. He’s turning genre clichés into a very personal take with his defiant mix of the deepness of a lonesome cowboy and his implicit faith in the dancefloor and gives the music a very personal touch of ennnoblement of the faith in itself. Technos dignity shall be inviolable.

For me, AUGEN ZU by T.RAUMSCHMIERE is one of the most beautiful masterpieces of bass-heavy “Umta Umta” techno. A few strikingly brilliant vocal lines from the master himself, put through the machines and combined with a relentlessly sequencer that says it all. This cheers my heart and we will always need such tracks to remind us of ourselves. And to forget about ourselves. Smash hits of unreason! Or the prettiest declaration of love to a music which gets its magical moments from what’s happening between the bass drum-beats. But only by this when the bassdrum remains linear and will do so forever. Both Marco Haas and Reinhard Voigt know that. Because after techno comes always techno.

We welcome German techno legend Pascal FEOS to Tronic for a two-track EP. Pascal is without a doubt one of the German godfathers of techno and trance. He released numerous albums as Resistance D, had massive hits such as 'I Can Feel That' and remixed some of the biggest names in electronic music. His production skills are amongst the very best in this industry, and we are honored to have signed his emotional and bassline driven 'Luv Can Turn Around' and the more groovy 'Filterloop' tracks. Christian Smith supplied us with a remix of 'Filterloop' adding his trademark funk and energy to the original.

Café Seven, the new album from System 7’s Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy mixes 5 tracks from their chill-out project Mirror System with 5 more up tempo System 7 tunes, and features a System 7 collaboration with Marcus Henriksson (Minilogue / Son Kite) on ‘Million Suns' and a Mirror System collaboration with Ajja on ‘Smooth Operator’.  The album also features some high profile remixes by Steve and Miquette including Sudo’s 'Sensation (System 7 remix)’  and Joujouka’s ‘And Justice Killed  (System 7 remix)’ and a Mirror System remix of Six Degrees Records artists The Delia Derbyshire Appreciation Society on ‘Cloudface’.

X-Port - the latest album release of System 7 - presenting a unique combination of techno and trance beats and live musicianship. On October 16th 2015 A-Wave Records simultaneously released the full power System 7 X-Port album and the more chilled Mirror System album titled N-Port. This ambitious release plan celebrates the 21 year anniversary of System 7’s seminal Fire and Water dual albums, and presents the full range of Hillage and Giraudy’s work in the field of electronica.

Released March 2015:-  System 7 & Mirror System mini-album N+X - a trailer for the ambitious simultaneous dual album release of System 7's new album X-Port and Mirror System's new album N-Port planned for the autumn. This is a celebration of 21 years since the release of System 7's ground breaking Point 3 Fire album and Water album.

SYSTEM 7 released Out (dbl CD) - on 07-07-14 - The Definitive Single Remix Collection featuring remixes and collaborations by Richie Hawtin / Dubfire / Carl Craig /James Holden / Laurent Garnier / A Guy Called Gerald / A. Mochi / Liquid Soul / Son Kite / Alex Paterson / Voyager / Rovo / Evan Marc / Jam El Mar / Doc Scott

SYSTEM 7's previous release - the Passion EP - really hits the spot, showing that in 2013 they remain on top of their game with their unique blend of trance and techno.

The most recent full System 7 album UP (released May 2011) tips the balance a bit in a more techno and tech house direction, still showcasing the unique System 7 sound with ultra modern production and a feeling of positivity. The album was inspired by time spent in Berlin. The club single, taken from UP, is PositiveNoise, a collaboration with Berlin-based A Guy Called Gerald, and features a new deep techno remix from Carl Craig and a powerful remix from Japanese techno star A.Mochi. PositiveNoise also has great new Japanese animation video clip

SYSTEM 7’s Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy have had a strong influence on the birth of psychedelic dance music and it’s journey up to the present, forging a unique and bang up-to-date identity on the genre map, in a space where techno, progressive and trance meet – with a healthy side-element of unique quality ambient chill which is connected and reflected in their sister project Mirror System. 

Since the beginning of the 90s System 7 projects have been marked by a series of high powered collaborations, working with Detroit luminaries Derrick May and Carl Craig, Laurent Garnier, The Orb, Jam El Mar, Son Kite among others. System 7’s club singles have had outstanding remixes from the likes of Plastikman, James Holden and Dubfire, whose mix of Space Bird was number one on Beatport’s main chart for 2 weeks in 2008.
