Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome a fresh new label from hamburg, germany. “kompass” will present some exciting new electronic music to you, somewhere in between house and techno, from deep tracks to rough cuts, always on the hunt for your listening and dancefloor pleasure. the label was founded by two guys, who are into this business for quite some time now. first fellow is yuri snør aka juergen schneider, techno activist from cologne since the early 90s, dj, party promoter and very well versed labelmanager for many years now. secondly, it’s philipp brüning aka phly, one of hamburg’s beloved senior djs, once promoter at motor music and universal records and currently working for another splendid labelbunch in hamburg is about to include his long experience and exquisite liking for good music into this fresh imprint. the debut release of kompass is a very special release for all parties involved, label owners and artists. brüning & schneider bring their new label into being and the artists, noone less than extrawelt, celebrate their second 12” after the huge success of their “soopetrack” on james holden’s imprint border community. extrawelt, producer duo from hamburg, serves two slamming tracks, both surely bearing the mark of this very special extrawelt sound. an exploding mixture of modern techno, cool minimal shuffles and the well-dosed portion of slightly trancy influences. on the a-side it’s “fernweh”, a strong dancefloor weapon for your peak time set. let the bass roll and rule! the flip side delivers “drehfehler”, which is less hymn, but even more minimal and subtle. this one will rock your afterhour for sure. hope you enjoy and watch out for upcoming releases...
