In an ideal world, my father would have been 65 today. In an ideal world, we would meet this afternoon to throw back some birthday beers. But we do not live in an ideal world, and it is often when the world is at its least ideal that we are the most aware of it and therefore most able to document its hardships with our art. As artists our job is to paint the world around us in the colour palette we deem to be most fitting to describe how we see it and subsequently what we choose to say about it. I have always chosen to paint the world around me as full of romance and hope, despite the pain I have often felt inside. I don’t think I’ve ever put out a song, no matter how uplifting, that wasn’t in part created as a means of healing myself and this EP is no different. The years are ticking by now since I last hugged him but the legacy he left on my love for world music, in particular the music of India, will never lose its strong hold on my heart.

With the way the world has been over the past year, it’s often been hard to stay inspired and even harder to finish the things that appeared out of those rarer moments of inspiration. Let this EP serve as a reminder to myself that no matter the weather, I must keep releasing music that is dear to me. I hope you enjoy my new release; ‘With Each Passing Day’ ❤️

TÂCHES - With Each Passing Day [GLTR016]

Lyrics and vocals by the swag lord himself @jacksonenglund

Motion sickness
Motion sickness

Shackled and stolen
No one knows just where we’re going
Sunlight shining through the crack
Petrified to an artefact

Motion sickness
Motion sickness

I can smell the salt in the air
Some one get me out of here
I’ve been praying for so long
Hear me now before I bite my tongue

Motion sickness
Motion sickness

This ships going overboard
Thrown in against my will
Only one way out of here
Hold my breath and take away my tears

Motion sickness
Motion sickness

Way out in the water
Darkness rolling over

Motion sickness
Motion sickness

With Each Passing Day

Motion Sickness

Grateful for the Living

Tu amor es pura poesia
Mi corazón siempre te recordará

Cada noche te busco en mis sueños
Y aunque no te vea te sigo a buscar

Volveremos a bailar la rumba juntos
La mar no nos separará

Cada noche te espero en mis sueños
Y aunque no te vea te sigo a esperar

Rumba Tumba - TÂCHES Remix

Harvest Moon

Harvest Moon (Original Mix)

Group Love

You (Used To)

Created in the isolation of the British countryside, Desert Sound Colony is inspired by faintly remembered sounds and almost forgotten memories. The thread running through the melodic, visceral tracks touch on a sense of melancholy present within us all.
Occupying a space somewhere between ‘60s Psychedelia and the pulsating sounds of future-clubs, Desert Sound Colony is both infectious and ethereal, shrouding the listener in a gentle, rhythmical canopy.

COMPOST 500 is included as download code in the jubilee book „SOUL / LOVE – 20 Years Compost Records“, a 250-page book, packed with stories, about 450 fotos, memorabilia, anecdotes, music, covers and comments from ca. 60 companions, remixers, friends and artists, including illustrious characters like:
Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier, Robag Wruhme, Danny Krivit, Hans Nieswandt, Gerd Janson, Permanent Vacation, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Fat Freddy’s Drop, Solomun and many more.

Get „SOUL / LOVE – 20 Years Compost Records“ here: http://www.compost-rec.com/shop/book/20-years-compost-records-book/

COMPOST 500 is divided in three chapters:
- „FRESHLY COMPOSTED“ (previously unreleased) ...and two „Best Of’s“ of the Compost catalogue:
- „SOME MICHAEL REINBOTH FAVOURITES“
- „HIDDEN GEMS“ (Top B-sides, secret weapons & undiscovered pearls of the Compost back catalogue)

#1 FRESHLY COMPOSTED
The Freshly Composted serie (50, 100, 250, 300) always represents a musical snapshot of Compost Records, bringing together a variety of genres and vibes, all produced by some of the finest artists at the moment.
This “COMPOST 500 – Freshly Composted” episode includes previously unreleased tracks and remixes by Siren, Mark E, Mathias Schaffhäuser, Claudio Ricci & Megablast, SHOW-B, Robinn, Marbert Rocel, Emilie Nana and Compost Allstars (consisting of Christian Prommer, Beanfield’s Jan Krause, Roland Appel and Michael Reinboth) featuring Robert Owens and others.

#2 SOME MICHAEL REINBOTH FAVOURITES
In this chapter, our label head Michael Reinboth picked some of his fave tunes from the Compost back catalogue, including the works of Carl Craig, Âme, John Talabot, Todd Terje, Moonstarr, Jay Shepheard, Beanfield, A Forest Mighty Black and more. Of course there are much more, but those timeless tracks played a significant role in the Compost history.

#3 HIDDEN GEMS
The third chapter of COMPOST 500 points out a selection of top B-sides, secret weapons and undiscovered pearls from the Compost vault. You’ll find a lot of solid, but barely explored material here, such as tracks and remixes by Psychemagik, Henrik Schwarz, Zero dB, Move D, John Tejada, Christian Prommer, Lexx and more!

Debut EP on TÂCHES' new label GLITTER COWBOY - 20 September 2017

A1. I Still Think About You
A2. No Bailes Sola
B1. Unrequited Love Affair

To Move Mountains

Unrequited Love Affair

There was a beautiful song which played peacefully in his mind when he began to think about the past and memories of her. How was he supposed to ever forget about her, let alone you. You had been the one in his mind since the very first day on earth all those many years ago. You was the last one he saw when he closed the door at night and went to bed. You lived on in his dreams, a beautiful daring fantasy which challenged him to forget, he could not. 

TÂCHES is set to release a beautifully emotional EP on Glitter Cowboy, a release which glimmers and shines with a touching, poignant grace which can sometimes be hard to channel through dance music.

Shirtless and shoeless, TÂCHES sits cross-legged in the dirt gently taking in his mountain surroundings. It’s clear that he’s deep in thought as he mindfully traces the shape of a fallen leaf in his hand and a slight smile gently spreads across his face. There’s a tangible feeling of love and fascination communicated through the way he looks at the world around him and it’s precisely this holistic approach to creativity that makes him such a captivating artist. This is the makeup of a being that finds passion and inspiration anywhere he looks. 

Contradictorily, he is as much a devotee to tradition as he is a breaker of rules. TÂCHES is uninterested in following trends, and instead seeks to provoke the senses through a deeply personal examination of culture and cliche. Conceptual without ever being pretentious, his music shows a deep rooted appreciation for the textures of the times passed and faraway places. There’s a certain urgency to capture the world as he perceives it; albeit a world seen through the rose tinted lenses of a creature forever romantically entangled with his surroundings.

There’s no one way to sum up TÂCHES’s music, as it’s perpetually in growth, bending and swaying like a tree in the wind. This sonic metamorphosis is due to a primal need to experiment coupled with a deep longing to express the continually transforming experience of being human. Drawing heavily from emotion and memory, there’s a clear sense of nostalgia in all that he creates. His pure and unabashed desire to combine the things that he loves manifests itself as rich and evocative music with massive personality and palpable global flavours. 

TÂCHES’s desire to build upon the world in which his music exists led to the creation of his label GLITTER COWBOY - the peculiar home for the sonic documentation of his journey. When you listen to GLITTER COWBOY, you are nakedly experiencing life through the eyes of TÂCHES as he seeks to embody self-awareness and optimism, along with finding inner peace through nature, artistic expression and simplicity of living.

Grateful for the Living
