#CNS20Y
We can hardly believe it, but Connaisseur is turning 20 this year! It all began in early November 2005 with our debut release, Patrick Chardronnet’s “Eve By Day.” Not only was it our first track, but it also became our first hit, setting the tone for everything to come. Now, hundreds of tracks later, we're proudly entering our anniversary year.

To celebrate our anniversary, we’ve gathered musical gifts from some of our beloved artists — tracks that truly resonate with us and embody The Sound of Connaisseur.

Introducing “The Presents,” a series of releases leading up to our official anniversary in November.

The series kicks off with our Offenbach friends Shayde, aka Delenz and Richard IV. With previous releases under this moniker, or in various combinations, on labels such as Live At Robert Johnson, Rawax, Moodmusic, Connaisseur, Delenz's own label Turbolenz, and an upcoming releases on Cocoon Recordings, Shayde have prepared a special gift for our anniversary.

Two tracks that truly capture the spirit and sound of Connaisseur.

"Karri Otschi" is a timeless, stomping yet subtle techno track that would also work beautifully in a more uptempo house set. Meanwhile, "Under Clean Blankets" is a stunning, acid-infused electro tune. A genuine Connaisseur release through and through.
