Also Traum releases are very good, maybe to "heady" for what you are
looking for but still worth the listen. On KOMPAKT you cant beat "Robson
Ponte" by Reinhard Voigt I believe it is #15. KOMPAKT's web add. is
www.KOMPAKT-NET.DE There you can find the discography of the labels they
dist. and descriptions of each. Also listen to the Freiland series by
Wolfgang Voigt and the max-earnst series by Thomas Brinkmann.

Objet : [313] Kompakt Education Please
I picked up the Kompakt - Total 2 compilation last weekend and I'm love
with
the M. Mayer track "Amanda".
The only other Kompakt record I've been inspired to buy so far was the
first
M. Mayer 12". I see there's a new one, KOM 25. Anyone heard this? How does
it compare to the rest of his output? I like the overtly 80's style of
Amanda, and the overboard triumphant synths on the first one, but a lot of
the other Kompakt stuff I've heard doesn't really grab me as much as say,
Perlon, Basic Channel, etc. It almost feels like it's stuck in a grey area
between heady dancefloor stuff and super-quirky IDM, never really
satisfying
my cravings for either. Maybe it just doesn't go over as well in headphones
at the record store?
So... if you can point me to more Michael Mayer stuff that's worth picking
up, or releases on Kompakt that are sure to impress, I'd be much obliged.
On
that tip, anything that's on this German retro-80s meets German house tip
sounds good to me. The Popacid mix of Fackeln Im Sturm by Wolfgang Voigt is
another example of this style. I remember somone about a year ago said this
style was featured at some club in Germany. The more info the better.
