Marc Romboy
and
Stephan Bodzin
ain't no astronauts. They are first and foremost musicians, producers and long-time friends. Together with their own long-running imprints, Systematic Recordings and Herzblut Recordings, they have proven how to build up a distinct label sound. However, similar to some well-known astronauts, the word "Luna" has a very special meaning to the musicians because it's the name of Marc Romboy's daughter and that of Stephan Bodzin's wife as well, so it was an obvious choice when they were looking for a fitting title name back in 2005. Six years on, and the project nears its final touchdown with this triple CD set. For the past few years, track names like "Callisto," "Puck," "Atlas" and "Phobos" have been regular listings inside various playlists and DJ charts. And similar to the nearly eternal footprints on the moon, these tracks have proven how to set up an acoustic milestone, which is why some special "synthapella" versions (without beats or percussion parts) pay tribute to the concept of "less is more." This 3CD package compiles tracks previously only available on vinyl, plus two brand-new productions ("Triton" & "Oberon"). CD1 contains album tracks as well as edits and synthapella versions. The stylistic range is additionally highlighted on CD2 by an 80-minute mix of versions and remixes, ranging somewhere between a truly modern club sound and bold electronic experiments. It is this range of possibilities, backed by the love for certain sound worlds originating from vintage synthesizers such as Moog and Arp or drum computers like the ones from Roland and Vermona, that has worked like a magnet for other producers to ardently work on these remixes. In addition to the remixes on CD2, the third CD is comprised of downloadable mp3s with more than 20 different producers from all over the world taking you on a musical orbit, starting in Germany with
