Spaced out disco and glitchy samples played at syrup speed.
V.A. ELSWHERE MCMXIII, a new album compiled by DJ soFA for débruit’s ICI label, journeys through “disco, cold wave, and kraut territories with a taste for experimentation”.
The twelve-track compilation showcases leftfield sounds and producers you might find in Düsseldorf’s Salon Des Amateurs, like Detlef Weinrich aka Toulouse Low Trax, and Jan Schulte aka Wolf Müller aka Bufiman.
It’s a cross-section of analogue and electronic spanning music best described as dance floor slow jams: opener ‘C’est L’attaque’ mixes Middle Eastern hypno-acid with a French smooth croon, while Ekstern’s ‘Highway’ is a euphoric middle-of-the-nighter you accidentally played at 33rpm and discovered was better that way.
