Title:
Present
Label:
DATAPUNK (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$17.00
Catalog #:
DTP 019CD
Six years after their debut album
Future
and four years since the last 12"
Errorist
,
Artist Unknown
, Germany's cloak-and-dagger electro project is now releasing on
Anthony Rother
's Datapunk label, which is currently expanding its content of electro music in all directions, like no other platform at this time. Artist Unknown veils itself in secrecy, owning to pilgrim travels in Kathmandu, guitar roadie performances for
Oasis
and performances at video stores in Turku as its recent meanderings. In terms of music,
Present
displays a complete mix of references: the dogmatic proto-EBM of
Conny Plank
(producer for
DAF
,
Kraftwerk
,
Neu!
and
Ultravox
, among others), and cultivated electro-class blueprints as well as the narrative Chicago sound of
Cajmere
/
Green Velvet
, along with the usual Artist Unknown bleepy, squelchy electro traditions. The result is a new uncompromising headstrong album that leaves all established models and borders of current music electronics behind. Soundtrack meets bodyrock. Song structures search for counter-deconstructive compositions. Songs like "The Happy Days" and "Demons & Girls" evoke love and coldness, melody and madness in equal measure.
Future
was then --
Present
is now!

Catalog #:
DB 104CD
"Artist Unknown are back. After their highly appreciated Disko B-debut
Future
the unknowns from Berlin are coming up with a new track called 'Errorist' and smashing remixes from some songs of the
Future
material. Artist Unknown invited a drop dead cool line up: ED DMX (creator of what we call 'ElektroStep'), Märtini Brös feat. Melissa (Chicks On Speed) and Jan Schade (pushing 'Control' to a completely different level), Highfisch & Diringer (simply the coolest DJs of Berlin, seriously shaking the dancefloor with 'the hole/das loch' where they translated the english lyrics into japanese and than back into german....). The CD-version contains a special performance of 'Anthem' by David Harrow."
