Presenting a double CD release compiling a fine collection of Sascha Ring aka Apparat's remix work. Things To Be Frickled is a mega-showcase of current electronic music pioneers merging and redefining ways of making music. Killer club tracks as well as silent epics each find their home in Apparat's musical cosmos. This CD is not meant as a follow-up to the successful Walls album, rather, it is a way to understand Apparat's background, friends, influences, works and ideas. Things To Be Frickled presents a new motion in electronic music that takes both steps: loops/tracks/club music vs. songwriting, soundscapes, and new ways of experimenting and understanding what is possible with bits and bytes, instrument(al)s and vocals. CD1 showcases 11 giant mixes Apparat did for artists such as Paul Kalkbrenner (with Ellen Allien), Francesco Tristano, Swayzak, Boys Noize, Lusine, Nathan Fake, Meteo/Thiel, Nitrada and Raz Ohara plus an unreleased live Apparat re-version of "Let Your Love Grow" by Moderat (a cooperation between Modeselektor and Apparat) featuring the great Tikiman (aka Paul St. Hilaire). CD2 assembles 11 remixes done for Apparat plus several Apparat remix 12"s, all of them appearing on CD for the first time: Telefon Tel Aviv, Modeselektor, Chris De Luca vs. Phon.o, Thomas Fehlmann, Monolake, Boys Noize, Lusine, Anders Ilar and Raz Ohara. Also featuring a previously-unreleased mix of Shrubbn!! remixing "Hailin From The Edge."
