Konrad Ritter & Neph – You Are Doing Well (Robag’s Tassilaq Morbus Rehand)

@konradritter @realneph @robag_fm

Out now: https://ift.tt/7eknCv1

Fresh off their April 2022-released debut single on Unreel, German duo Konrad Ritter & NEPH are back at it with “High Hopes”, a three-track hike across solar house territories beautifully complemented by a choice remix from Kompakt stalwart Robag Wruhme. True to the pair’s ever vivid and colourful approach, a lush palette of summery flavours and organic suavity exudes from this fresher-than-fresh second effort.

The blissed-out, disco-hued opener “Trip City” treats us to a smorgasbord of layered pad swashes, framing our minds in a warm cocoon of sound that spins in and out of focus to the jacking rhythm of early Chicago house drums. Folding out sequences of melodic sublimation and honey-like textural unctuosity thru and thru, a different shade of feelgood-ism innervates “You Are Doing Well”, where Ritter and NEPH blend in elements of polyrhythmic Caribbean music with heavily processed vocals and a left-of-centre sense of deep-house escapology.

Rounding off the package on a luminous, typically empowering note, German maestro Robag Wruhme repurposes “You Are Doing Well” into a proper clear-watered slice of shoegaze-y, dreamy elation – perfect for transitional states both on and off the dance-floor, then slowly but surely (and elegantly) cranking up the tempo up a notch until its bass-powered engines take us off up the highest layers of the dance-o-sphere.

ENTlich am Strand <3 Lisbird @ Sisyphos // Mai 2023

Spontan bin ich auf dem Sisyphos Outdoor Floor, dem schönsten Strand Berlins, zwischengelandet um meinen Federn ein Sandbad und euch einen fluffigen Daydance zu bescheren. Ein unaufgeregter Tag zum in die Sonne blinzeln und Hüftekreisen. Das Recording steigt nach etwa einer Stunde playtime ein, weil das Aufnahmegerät erst hinterher reisen musste. Die erste Stunde sowie eure Energie behalte ich ganz behutsam in meinem glücklichen Herzen. ❤️‍🔥

bis bald

Padouc & Julia Romas – Blaue Stunde (ɹǝqüɟdoʞ Sampler IV)

Pfandtastisch! Eine riesige Meute Soundpirat*innen hat sich dazu bereit erklärt, feine Musik für den vierten und bisher größten Kopfüber Sampler zu produzieren.

Dieses Mal geht es nicht um die Schiffe der Seawatch, die wir mit dem letzten Solisampler unterstützt haben. Unser eigenes Schiff schwankt, angesichts der aktuellen Lage und steht stillgelegt in seinem Heimathafen. Daher haben wir uns entschlossen, Freund*innen und Crewmitglieder*innen zum Produzieren zu animieren und diese Soundsammlung dann als Soli Sampler für einen humanen Einklaufspreis auf Bandcamp zu stellen. Jegliche Einnahmen werden dazu genutzt, die monatliche Miete für unser Verwirrtshaus zu sichern!

Wir freuen uns auf eure Unterstützung, um unser Projekt in Zeiten wie diesen am Laufen zu halten.
In Zukunft werden alle Sampler wieder auf Spendenbasis sein!

Großes Schmatzerl an alle die geholfen haben, dieses auserlesene Stück Musikgeschichte mit mehr als 20 Künstler*innen zusammen zu schreiben…

Und jetzt: Viel Spaß beim Lauschen!
_______________________________________________________

Pawn-tastic! A huge mob of sound pirates* has agreed to produce fine music for the fourth and so far biggest Kopfüber sampler.

This time it’s not about the Seawatch ships we supported with the last soli sampler. Our own ship is wavering, given the current situation and stands idle in its home port. Therefore we decided to encourage friends and crew members to produce and then put the collected sounds on Bandcamp as a soli-sampler for a humane price. Any income will be used to secure the monthly rent for our Verwirrtshaus!

We are looking forward to your support to keep our project running in times like these. Future samplers will be free downloads again!

A big kiss to all who helped to write this exquisite piece of music history together with more than 20 artists*…

And now: Have fun listening!

Liebst,
Eure Kopfübers!
