Compost

Tons of good stuff indeed awaited to see the light this month haven't made the things e-z 4 us 2 come up with a definitive choice. This making our selection more of a necessity for you to get your ears straight to it. Although wearing a Tibetan pseudonym, bass player Raul Walton is what we might call a pure product of the German scene with this collection located at the exact epicenter of electro and (nu) jazz. So forget about your preconceived ideas at the perspective of discovering the result of the work of a man whose CV includes collaborations with a vast array of local names. He, with the help of (versatile) female singer Merit Osterman adding a lot of sensuality to it + producers Ben Mono, Moonstarr, Osunlade, Fauna Flash and Beanfield, gives us a brilliant and vibrant display of futuristic groove varying from broken beat, electro jazz, progressive soul, minimal afro/latin house, atmospheric breakbeat, occasionnally prooving that he also has the abitily of providing us with organic sounds at their very best. As said by the label's CEO, Michael Reinboth at the beginning of this year, expect nothing but the quality from the Compost stable. MFSB
