Normoton Gold
Price 13.69 - 17.60 USD
Normoton celebrates the 25th release with its first label compilation. Since there has never been any dogmatic style policy connected to the German label, the musical diversity is just amazing. Label owner Klaus Burkard consequently releases quality music by believing in his instinct and his taste. Locked grooves from a Polish Elvis impersonator, minimal by Landesvatter and Strassmann, ambient by Smutny, deep house by Andreas Heiszenberger, experimental electronics by MCL and classic singer-songwriter music by Uphill Racer and Electroserge -- everything is possible and experiments are part of the deal. But still: Normoton is a trademark of its own and musical variety doesn"t necessarily mean chaos. It"s almost impossible to find a suitable description for this label... just expect the unexpected and prepare yourself for some surprises. Apart from tracks by the above named artists you will find two brand new and previously-unreleased tracks on this compilation. "Barebeatz" is produced by Phon.o and Exsample aka The Barebackshow. The two Berlin-based artists created this track only by using sounds from Normoton"s very own locked grooves series, called Compact. Moreover, there is Traffic Jam from Poland, the latest member of the Normoton family. Their compilation track "Metronome" will be released on 12" with three more tracks. But there is still more to come: look out for new albums by Uphill Racer, Electroserge and Pupkulies & Rebecca in 2007.
