NEW ALBUM IN 2010: "No Scar So Far"
Release: 8th of January 2010
ENGLISH:
At the moment when Andy Blackhole, born as Mahatma G. Andy, and Benjamin Lovesick, both known as the Siamese twins from Transylvania, did their Walk of Fame on the Berlin Wall and suddenly became worldfamous and rich, which allowed them to pay an operation to get separated of each other, Chris Jackpot still was lurking around in the south of North America. On the run from his worst enemy Al Capone, his white colour of the skin finally became his doom after years of illegal stay in the Cotton Belt. He got caught by the FBI and was shipped to Europe into exile because of shortage of space in Guantanamo. It might be a simple coincidence that two decades later Juicy Peacock, the last living alumnus of the guitar school of Pjöngjang, also hit the heart of Europe. Something definitely was apparent afterwards: The Sinful Saints-Embryo was sired and his hour of birth was irresistibly in the offing.
DEUTSCH:
Als Andy Blackhole, geborener Mahatma G. Andy, und Benjamin Lovesick als die siamesischen Zwillinge Transsilvaniens mit ihrem Walk of Fame über die Berliner Mauer Weltruhm erlangten und sich, plötztlich reich geworden, operativ voneinander trennen liessen, hielt sich Chris Jackpot noch in den tiefsten Südstaaten Nordamerikas versteckt. Auf der Flucht vor seinem ärgsten Wiedersacher Al Capone, wurde ihm nach Jahren des illegalen Aufenthalts im Cotton Belt seine weisse Hautfarbe zum Verhängnis. Das FBI kriegte ihn zu fassen und verfrachtete ihn, aus Platznot in Guantanamo, nach Europa ins Exil.
Es mag Zufall sein, dass es zwei Dekaden später auch Juicy Peacock, den einzigen noch lebenden Absolventen der Pjöngjanger Gitarrenschule, ebenfalls in die mitteleuropäische Zeitzone verschlagen hatte. Eines aber war damit klar: Der „Sinful Saints“-Embrio war gezeugt und seine Geburtsstunde stand unaufhaltsam bevor.
Even christmastime couldn't stop Rockethead from mixing some crazy stuff together. So here's the December mix, for a little more noise during the holidays ;)
Hello all, this will be our final release of 2009, and a great way to end the year... Pinklogik asked 10 artists and friends to remix her entire "Learning To Trust Higher Frequencies" album and what an eclectic and stunningly produced work this is. Each track has its own feel, thanks to the diverse range of artists involved in the project. A shimmering journey through ambient colours, broken beats, sweet melodies, a little bit of quantum physics, and is one hell of a trip....

[S27-030] MIN-Y-LLAN : Dark Days (Downtempo, Ambient)
We are fast approaching the last days of 2009, so what better way to celebrate than this release from Welshman "Min-Y-Llan" who offers us this collection of atmospheric ambient pieces, the melodies within are dark and cavernous, being the perfect listening for the walk home on a frozen winters evening. Each track has a very melancholic feel as if looking towards a future that isn't as bright as we hope for, but nevertheless are powerless to escape. Free download!
