HELLO GORGEOUS

Jens-Uwe Beyer aka POPNONAME is no stranger to the Cologne scene. Beyond releasing two acclaimed full length's on ITALIC, he is continually building bridges within the local community with the SOUND OF COLOGNE project that has included the likes of ADA, BERTIL MARC (MARS) , THE MODERNIST, THE FIELD, JOHN STANIER (BATTLES) andJAN PHILLIP JANZEN (VON SPAR). Beyond that he has also recently collaborated with JAKI LIEBEZEIT (percussionist of CAN). Following a string of contributions for KOMPAKT's POP AMBIENT series he joins the KOMPAKT POP stable with a truly remarkable tune that is destined to bring him to a broader audience - HELLO GORGEOUS finds itself somewhere between the classic sound of KOMPAKT and the PET SHOP BOYS. HELLO GORGEOUS sounds likes it was produced in lavish place where rave and indie meet on the dance floor. And all throughout, the song is harmoniously carried together by Beyer's powerful vocals. POPNONAME provides a upbeat LE KLUB remix tightening the techno up a notch or 5. The big news is that TERRANOVA step in for remix duties - legends in their own right FETISCH and ME have been an institution in the music scene since the '80's so we're excited to have their exceptional contribution - they turn HELLO GORGEOUS into a cracking jack house number.
