This release is a very special one for us… Indeed, ROSKOW KRETSCHMANN has been for years one of the music makers that surprised us constantly and teased our appetite, displaying his rich musical background inside of projects like Jazzanova, Kosma or SYGAIRE… The tracks selected by DAIRMOUNT (after hours hanging out in Roskow’s sound lab over the years) are genuinely outstanding in his entire discography. They sound like no others and reveal rare aspects of his “musical persona”. This is why they are representing perfectly our quest for “hybrid club music” crossing the lines of the original spirit of House & Techno. The EP opens with the futuristic Techno Soul of THE TIME IS NOW. Perfectly named, the tune fuses with class, dusty Jazz samples, obscure Soul vocals, juicy claps and overwhelming Detroit Techno keys. The result is a timeless club monster for the deepest moments… Deep house master extraordinaire SHUR-I-KAN, respected for his powerful output on Freerange, Urbantorque or his own Dark Energy, has signed one of his best retakes to date by infusing a serious dose of funkiness in his deep house perspective of the track. This remix is already a huge success as a digital only track pre-released on our first PERSPECTIVES episode last april and became on of the most played tracks of WMC 2009. Second original that blasted us is MONO:POLY rightly shaped for audacious dj’s that enjoy to play “special” things. The track is supported by a solid programming as beatmakers like Mark Pritchard, Recloose or Kenny Dope originated in the 90’s, mixed with biting analogue pressure, crazy batucada elements & a magic breakdown for all the lucky ones that will play it in the sunrise this summer… And last but not least, one of the label mavericks, MARLOW created a hell of a remix by delivering a 10 minutes Techno epic that would make our Detroit godfather C2 blush of satisfaction… Thanks to all of them for the fantastic music…
