"In addition to showcasing the individual work of a tight family of musicians, Sender has long proved a platform for label founder Benno Blome to pursue an extended array of collaborations with artists like Baby Ford, Jens Bond and Peter Grummich. For his latest joint operation, he teams up with Berlin's Tigerskin (Alex Krüger, aka Dub Taylor). Krüger boasts dozens of releases, under various aliases. He excels at tight, percussive grooves with sparkling, memorable synth work-qualities he fuses here with Blome's dark and twisted approach. 'Jubeliane' is nothing less than pure jubilance, a launching pad for dance-floor hijinks that's driven by explosions of crowd noise and a bass-and-drum track with more bounce to the ounce than a jarful of superballs. It opens with rippling Afro-Latin percussion and quickly bursts into full gear as the two pile loop upon percussive loop-cowbells, claves, congas and more. The track unfolds with the unpredictability of a jam session played live, as stubby, shuffling bass and relaxed chords push and pull back and forth, creating a dynamic that pulls you in and won't let go."
