Artist:	FOTMEIJER, JOHAN
Title:	Listen & Repeat EP
Label:	ADJUNCT (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	ADJUN TILL004

"Four wondrous tales conceived by Johan Fotmeijer: 'Listen and Repeat,' the resistance's transmission is in code, listen and repeat, decipher and liberate. 'The Pen' is lost in a maze, the lights are trapped, the stuttering voice coming from the intercom is failing to lead the way out. The electromechanical rhythms are afraid to break the rank, the gongs of justice are echoing out of sync and the reincarnation of the supercomputer Alphaville is feverishly repeating that it is 'all about respect.' In 'Venom' the corroded circuits of Johan's sound devices have stopped following his commands -- not a simple matter of disobedience but the terrifying first stage of a digital flu pandemic."

Title:	Sommerlinde EP
Label:	BAUM (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	BAUM 003EP

"Baum Records proudly presents Johan Fotmeijer as a member of the label family. After his successful releases on labels such as Aesthetic Audio, Adjunct, Mille Plateaux and Boxer, Johan delivers a steady release on Baum. 'Embrace The Night' takes you into the world of melodic Detroit techno. The soundscapes from the synthesizers just evolves in small catchy melodies that fit perfect with the music from pioneers such as Carl Craig and Mike Banks. The second track 'Love Unlimited' is a track for the late night sessions. It starts with a steady kick, which leads into a calm atmospheric mood. The melodies blend perfectly with the white noise and slow delays. To finish off the EP, label owner Resoe remixes 'Love Unlimited.' He puts his own dubby touch to the track with deep, fat bass, dusty chords and adds an old-school 303 melody to top it off."

Title:	How We Gonna Fail Now?
Label:	BOXER RECORDINGS (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	BOXER 028EP

"On Boxer Sport, Johan Fotmeijer aka Claudia Bonarelli comes up with an unusual shuffle hip hop track that is far away from the functionality of his 'Televerket' tunes released on Italic. But how can we call it when after 30 seconds of consequent shuffle beats, the MC of superscientifiku starts with rhymes that sound as if this guy would spend his whole life in an effect box? Maybe shuffle-effect-hop-house? But no matter how you call it, fact is that we are deeply convinced. And Boxer artists Frank Martiniq and Delon & Dalcan round the whole thing up. A kind of homemade style! Without hesitation, they put the shuffle straight and let the MC rampage in the effect box without electricity. In other words: straight, funky, functional, essential and a class on its own."

Title:	Caps 'n' Cans EP
Label:	KAILASH (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	KAILASH 011EP

"Welcome to Johan Fotmeijer on Kailash but who is he? Johan Fotmeijer, one of the rising stars in the Swedish underground. With fine releases on labels such as Boxer, Italic and Mitek he is gaining international recognition. It all started with the mysterious character Claudia Bonarelli and it was all about click, cuts and deep dubby soundscapes. The style right now reflects his diverse musical background -- electro, rock, techno, hiphop, acid, minimal and it's always moving towards the sound of tomorrow. On this EP you can find three tracks from Johan Fotmeijer really amazing for the dancefloor & one remix from the duo Arnaud Le Texier (Safari Electronique) & Yossi Amoyal (Sushitech) they made a minimal bleepy remix stuff as they can do it every time."
