Info: After one and a half decade and more than 350 releases, Compost Records bundles some of their finest tunes as Various Artists digital download compilation albums. The variety and full spectrum of Compost’s repertoire has never or rarely been presented in form of a musical genre compilation. These releases will be compiled or DJ-mixed by Compost’s artists and are available as digital downloads, except in some rare cases very very limited as 500 CDs. Now it’s time for the genre that defined the labels beginning: Downbeat. The compilers of this mix are two happy faces who go by the name of Rupert & Mennert. The same two, who compiled the „V.A. – Compost Jazz Selection Vol.1“ of this series. But as they say… ‘we just love every inch of Compost, genres don’t matter for us. We like it all. So they dug in their Expedits to gather the . . . →

Title: Party-Keller 3
Cat No: CPT 355-1 / CPT 355-2 / CPT 355-3
Format: 2-LP / CD / Download
Quotes: Essential purchase for anyone keen to hear quality modern interpretations off the good groove. Straight No Chaser
Info: The Party-Keller compilation series is a project linked to my constant Munich-based clubnights. After some short journeys to the Japanese Soultage label (Soul Jammin’ Vol.3) and a mix for London-based Breakin Bread (The Party-Keller Mix CD), we have finally reached Vol. 3.
In the late Seventies direct-to-disc albums were quite popular, since they sound great and people spent some serious dough on proper hi-fi equipment in those days. We actually coupling four amazing cuts from three different direct-to-disc albums here: Mickey Erbe’s Orchestra interpretation of the „2001 Theme“ (which I’ve played very often in the early Nineties, I almost forgot how good it is), then two superb Gino Dentie’s interpretations of B.T. Express’ „Express“ and Brass Construction’s „Movin’“, as well as Rahmlee (Michael Davis) from . . . →

Quotes: Excellent music! full support! Abe Duque / Wow what a great release, I like each and every track a lot, can’t really decide for a favorite really. Deetron / nice release !!! Chris Liebing
Info: Compost Black Label is proud to present and celebrate the fourth chapter of latest and recent vinyl tunes. All done by most talented actors (for example Solomun, Peter Kruder, Rainer Trueby, Roland Appel, Jay Shepheard, Shahrokh a.o. or remixers like Pilooski, Franck Roger, Afrilounge, Tiefschwarz, Roberto Rodriguez a.o.) If you check some of the DJ quotes about the particular tracks (see below) you get an impression how we kicked off the last months. From moody late night house, via jazzy chords, jacking beats, discoid elements, deep tunes, or colorful techy soulful house music, our label vibe seems to be best typified and represented here. SHOW-B, another strong character of ours, selected and . . . →

Title: Elaste Vol. 3

Format: 2-LP / CD / Download
Quotes: The best so far in the elaste-series! Incredibly spellbounding neodisco-grooves with excellent nods towards electro! Superb! Jukka Hannukainen aka DJ Flux / Huge classics!! Love as always Take A Chance! DJ Rocca / I love that oldscool sound! Magda Finally! I’ve been waiting for a new installment of this super compilation series since I got my hands on Elaste Vol. 2 compiled by Tom Wieland. Vol. 3. not only keeps up with the quality of the previous installments but also takes it into another direction. Well done! Bag Of Goodies
Info: Three years has gone by since the last Elaste compilation. In this time the virus of cosmic disco (or afrofunky as they say in Italy) has spread round the place – giving me lots of good feedback and fan-letters. Thank you! I have spent these three years looking for more avantgardistic, galactic sounding disco, proto-techno, electronic new wave, and cheesy slow motion pop… and . . . →
