DEKMANTEL 10 YEARS SAMPLER 5

1. Burnt Friedman - Monsun 2. Ectomorph - Edge Of 3. Juju & Jordash - Neon Swing 4. Fatima Yamaha - Platforms (Empty Version) On EP5, legendary German musician Burnt Friedman makes his Dekmantel Records debut with ˜Monsun™. The Berlin based artist, who built a reputation for himself through his explorations into obscure, finely-tuned, experimental dub through his label Nonplace, alongside his collaborative relationship with the late Can drummer Jaki Liebezeit, is one of the crucial, sonic manipulators of our time. ˜Monsun™ finds Friedman crafting flowing, percussive, dub techno that is both esoteric, and progressive. Befitting of a Dekmantel release. Alongside Friedman sits legendary Detroit act Ectomorph, aka. BMG & Erika, also making their Dekmantel inauguration, with a record that surmises™ the group™s anologue, style of Motor City beats. . There would be no Dekmantel celebration without longtime family members, JuJu & Jordash. With three LPs and countless EPs released on the imprint to date, alongside a sleuth of festival, and party appearances, the improvisational duo have become masters of off-kilter, and poly-rhytmic electronic funk, of which ˜Neon Swing™ -a fast-paced and extremely invigorative cut- is of prime example. And then there™s Dekmantel favourite Fatima Yamaha  an artist who has a keen ear for gentle, analogue hooks that have gone to become ample festival fodder. The Dutchman maintains an ear for the serene with the track ˜Platforms™, a sullen, yet beautiful ambient track, the drives deep into the emotive world of soft, tender, heartfelt music.
