Kompakt

Kompakt is a renowned music label that was established in 1998. It originated from the transformation of Delirium, a record shop founded in Cologne in 1993. The label operates from its base at the Kompakt record store, which also features an online shop. Over the years, Kompakt has expanded its services to include artist booking and distribution for various artists and labels. Led by Wolfgang Voigt, Michael Mayer, Jürgen Paape, and managed by Jon Berry (4), Kompakt has become a prominent figure in the music industry.

With a rich history spanning over two decades, Kompakt has solidified its position as an influential force within the music scene. Its commitment to quality and innovation has garnered them widespread recognition and respect among both artists and fans alike.

As an esteemed label with *Kompakt* as their flagship brand, they have cultivated a diverse roster of talented musicians who continuously push boundaries across genres such as electronic, techno, ambient, and experimental music. Their dedication to curating exceptional sounds has made them a go-to destination for music enthusiasts seeking groundbreaking releases.

Fresh off the release of his Cosmo EP earlier this year, longstanding label stalwart Fetisch reignites the fire with Singularity EP - the second EP from the forthcoming Terranova album. A six-tracker featuring four original cuts plus a pair of remixes from Seattle’s Pezzner and Istanbul’s Rising Star Alican along with collaborations with Sifa (Congo) and Ivory (Milan). The outerspace'y stomp of Terranova's prime versions of Cosmochord feat Flashmob and Cosmocode feat Voltague, both lifted from his latest outing Cosmo EP, resonates deep into the grooves of the present platter, whilst the ethereally hypnotic vibe of Let It Fail (feat. Sifa and Ivory), with its brittle percussions and slow- scudding pad tapestries, as well as the left-of-centre, hovering electro of Powergrid draw in a further zero-G atmospheric vein and Sophia (Ode to a Robot) are tailored for dawn-time party communion and intense stargazing momentums. All of these tracks are inspired by Fetisch’s obsession with the current developments in creating artificial intelligence and robotic technology and his ambition to add androids to the impressive list of humanoid guests of the Terranova Soundsystem. Already quite the jacking pumper, Cosmochord gets a further menacing treat with Pezzner at the controls - ramming the doors of the club by means of loud kicks and lusty piano chords - each of them pounding with the impact of an apposite Glasgow kiss. Meanwhile Alican takes Cosmocode further into Saturnian confines, densifying the minimal backbone of the track with an extended battery of arpeggios, bleeps and middle-eastern percussions thrown in for good measure. With the rolling techno shuffle of Escape Ism and stuttering rhythmic engineering of Tempelhof (the 'Terranova Maschinenraum’ studio is located inside Berlins old airport). Fetisch loops the loop on a pulsating note, expanding the mind to horizons both poetic and physical - further establishing his unmatched sound signature.
