Info:
RSVD kicks off with this Blue Knife EP by its main Korova. Blow Out track reflects the full mentality of the label and comes with a thrilling tension stepping aside a bursting obscure dark progression and sinister heavy beats. Alien Blood is and ufo-like deadly bassline invasion drawing a dark strong hurting texture.
Deep Water‘s original mix is a playful floor-killer techno jacking track. Tsunami rocking upon and over the surface. Its IY‘s remix is fine rich and dry both mental dark stomping and odd hard hitting one: simple unique. A new excellent proof for the italian duo made by Fusaroli and Filardo.

Press Info:
KRAKE is an annual Berlin based festival for challenging electronic music. Krake means „octopus“ and the festival is organised in a comparable way: reaching out to selected locations during one week presenting the best in electronic music whatever style it is. The festival is not huge, not expensive, does not have big sponsoring deals or four different colour are passes. It’s just a good and so far successful try to bring back the focus on artists who dare to step off the beaten tracks.
KRAKE 002 contains mostly exclusive tracks of artists who played at the Krake festival in 2013.The A-side starts with a dark ambient drone by DÄMMERN, followed by a pop-fueled two-step hit by PHON.O. Next in line is Irishman EOMAC with a warm and deep IDM track already charted by none less than Thom Yorke of Radiohead, followed by „Resolution“, a little melancholic stepper by BILL YOUNGMAN.
The B-side is being opened with a techno track by grandmaster MONOLAKE in his most typical dubby percussive style. For the next track FRANK BRETSCHNEIDER reduces the sounds to the max again to deliver a percussive track as minimalistic as can be. Legendary techno producer CRISTIAN VOGEL, known for his constant search for new values, closes the compilation with an avantgarde piece of noise and drones.
Outstanding, we‘d say!
