[Loop Hotel 001 Promo]

A new label somehow associated to the Poker Flat Recordings-stable but with no further information given upon the man behind the scenes or even producer credits. This strategy is quite well-known from imprints as B-Series or Traffic Signs but as music is more important than words one's gotta admit that those information is not necessary to enjoy or play out specific tunes. Named "Room 101 / Room 102" both tracks are about nothing but deep but still uptempo House music with a modern, slightly techy twist to be enjoyed by oldskool connaisseurs as well as all those youngsters coming from a more TechHouse / Minimal background. Whilst "Room 101" comes along with some classic chords alongside tweaking Acid-influences "Room 102" is a more pumping affair featuring some sexy shaking hi-hat, seductive claps and sweet, glitzy hook for peak time abuse that is not to be missed.

Patrick Chardronnet - Piper [Audiomatique 036 Promo]

Patrick Chardronnet is back on Audiomatique Recordings with this new two-tracker released as the labels cat.no. 036 and it seems like he tries to explore new, more laid back grounds here. But sad to say this happens not necessarily for good as all those well-known afterhour elements in "Piper" like tripped out tribal / ethnic percussion glimpsing through, short cut vocal bits and even some horns seem to not fall together in the right place like the track has not been finished yet or a unmixed version pathed its way onto vinyl. "Dropout" on the flip does a better job though as here's a bit of layered DeepHouse melancholy invlvd that somehow reminds me of early releases on Hamburg-based label Dial but is not able to get me by the balls either. I suppose both tracks might work well played out in a context of long, neverending Ketamine-induced afterhours but are not my cup of tea when they're singled out.

Grimme Online Awards for Byte.FM

Last night Byte.FM received a Grimme Award, category Online Special, as one out of 1.7k websites that have been checked by the jury. Read the press release below.


Ausgezeichnet: Byte.FM gewinnt den Grimme Online Award 2009


Köln / Hamburg, 24. Juni 2009



Das Webradio ByteFM wurde heute mit dem Grimme Online Award ausgezeichnet. ByteFM setzte sich gegen rund 1.700 Einreichungen durch und siegte in der Kategorie „Spezial“, in der innovative und qualitativ herausragende Konzepte und Beispiele für publizistisch relevante Web-Angebote gewürdigt werden.

„Dass erst ein neues Medium genau das auferstehen lässt, was viele mit Wehmut an die früher vor dem alten Medium verbrachten Stunden zurückdenken lässt, mag Ironie des Schicksals sein. Doch ist ByteFM kein verklärter Blick in die Vergangenheit, sondern eine von Musikliebhabern für Musikliebhaber gestaltete und betriebene Plattform, die geschickt die Möglichkeiten des neuen Mediums nutzt, die Grenzen des Browsers durchbricht und über mehrere Kanäle hinweg ein stimmiges Erlebnis bietet.“ So begründete die Jury ihre Entscheidung.

„Wir sind sehr stolz auf die Auszeichnung mit dem Grimme Online Award, “ sagte Ruben Jonas Schnell, Geschäftsführer und Gründer von ByteFM, bei der heutigen Preisverleihung in Köln. „Mit ByteFM wollen wir zeigen, was jenseits des Formatradios möglich ist. Wir wollen neugierig machen – und nicht nur das Bewährte senden, sondern ein Programm mit Ecken und Kanten, das der Vielfalt der Musik gerecht wird. Die Auszeichnung mit dem Grimme Online Award zeigt uns, dass anspruchsvolles Musikradio auch in Zukunft wichtig bleibt und wir mit ByteFM ein relevantes Medium auf den Weg gebracht haben“, so Schnell.

Seit Januar 2008 sendet das Webradio auf www.byte.fm alles, was in der modernen Popmusik wichtig ist. Unabhängig von Werbekunden und Plattenlabels entsteht bei ByteFM jeden Tag ein handgemachtes, individuelles Programm aus alten und neuen Platten, Live-Mitschnitten und Berichten über Hintergründe, Entwicklungen und Trends in der internationalen Musikszene.
Rund 80 Musikjournalisten, Musiker und Kenner der Szene arbeiten mittlerweile für ByteFM – darunter echte Radiolegenden und schillernde Persönlichkeiten der Musikszene wie Klaus Walter oder Frank Spilker (Die Sterne).

ByteFM erreicht monatlich rund 250.000 Hörer und hat sich zu einer wichtigen Plattform für moderne Popmusik in Deutschland entwickelt.



Der Grimme Online Award ist bereits die zweite Auszeichnung für ByteFM in diesem Jahr: Im April war ByteFM mit Silber bei den Lead Awards ausgezeichnet worden.



Mit dem Grimme Online Award werden seit dem Jahr 2001 vom Adolf-Grimme-Institut qualitativ hochwertige Websites ausgezeichnet. In vier Kategorien werden insgesamt maximal acht Preise vergeben.

Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden - Bonkers [Dirtee Stank Recordings]

Well, seems like Dizzee Rascal left the realms of Grime these days and totally works on a fusion of Niche / Bassline and bangin' ElectroHouse with this one, featuring House music legend Armand Van Helden at the controls. And wot comes out of that? A huuuge tune that'll set clubs on fire and will be aired on mainstream radio stations as well. Strictly banger, fo sure. If u don't like that u're deaf.

CDJJJ - Innocuous E.P. [Super 6 Records 042.5]

Scheduled for july on Super 6 Records as their cat.no. 042.5 is CDJJJ's "Innocuous E.P." featuring four tracks of deep, pumping and slightly psychedelic, trippy TechHouse / Intelligent Minimalism about to work nicely throughout the early hours with well hypnotizing productions by artists like Tadeo or those early releases of Roma's Elettronica Romana-imprint. If u know what we're talking here make sure to check this one out as well.

Various Artists [Pharmacom Records 050]

New on Pharmacom Records is their cat.no 050, a thirteen track compilation feauring artists like eVade, Kondencuotas Pienas, Ohrchitekt, Wolfgang Raspe and others who've already released on Pharmacom Records before, at least most of them. The musical range is - as one might have already guessed - quite wide and leads us from smooth Ambient to electroid, melodic Drum'n'Bass, from there onwards to Downbeat and further to some weird experimental styles, covering a variety of styles rarely found on a compilation release these days. And btw - this one is limited to an edition of 50 so make sure to grab yr copy quickly.

Mikromatika - Flute [Super 6 Records 042]

To be released via Super 6 Records quite soon is Mikromatika's "Flute" - a three-tracker surely to be appreciated by all DeepHouse-/BrokenHouse-connaisseurs as the original versions of "Dubflute" and "Highflute" perfectly fit into this context and even feature classic instruments as there are - understood! - flute and glockenspiel whilst Sascha Müller's rework of "Dubflute" might be described as DubTechno vs. DeepHouse on a percussive anti-groove tip. Nice.

Video: Siouxsie & The Banshees - Happy House

One of my all time favorites when it comes to the PostPunk era.

Nightnoise - Forgotten Highland [Super Six Goodies 051]

New on Super Six Goodies is "Forgotten Highland" , a ten track release written and produced by Flensburg-based DJ and producer J. Hansen a.k.a Nightnoise. This one is to be filed as unmixed collection of pure Techno tracks, quite monotonous, straight banging and tool'ish, properly produced and defo functional but seen as a whole album there's a clear lack of variety especially if served in a track-by-track mode. Putting all those tracks together as a DJ-mix would've done a better job for sure.
