This is the fourth volume in a 4-part CD compilation series celebrating the 10th anniversary of Frankfurt's Robert Johnson club. Thomas Hammann and Gerd Janson are sophisticated and knowledgeable jacks of many trades -- one is a devoted record shopkeeper, the other a label operator and music journalist; both are marvelous DJs that have a reputation for quality. True believers, idealistic activists and discreet ambassadors of the cause, they have run Robert Johnson's renowned Liquid Night in Offenbach for 9 years now: They are men of conviction. They are men who know how house truly works, how it sounds best, what house can evoke and most of all, what you need to evoke that. They are house, they care for it and they share it. The magic of their joint efforts not only unites them both; it also unites them with their Liquid customers, the dancers right there at Robert Johnson. It's a residency and club forum other DJs would sell their grandma for, and it attracts a horde that undergoes pilgrimages to see it in full bloom. Liquid is a club night that works because it's made for a blended family -- anyone and everyone who wants to join in. And this is its soundtrack. A sound that builds bridges from yesterday to today and from the United States to Europe and back again. A sound that pays homage to disco's legacy and its revenge, flirts with techno right across the dancefloor, is self-assured, holds its head up high, is humble, graceful and lofty at the same time, zigzags, flows, is demanding and giving, is game for everything, is reactionary and progressive, is vintage and modern, gives and takes, moves and stops, seems to be light, dark and suspicious, is morning after and night before, sings and swings, loves and wants to be loved, is really and truly and beautiful. Artists include: Juicy Fruit, DJ Du Jour, Lontano, Fresh Tunes#2, Dr. Nobody, Stephan G & The Persuader, Azymuth, Global Communication, Chez Damier, JohnNick Presents Red Hook Dreams, Kenny Dope, Soundstream, DJ Duke, Radio Slave, DNTEL, and Superpitcher.
