Always innovative, this collective has been pushing the boundaries of the 'trip hop' genre for several years with previous releases on Compost and All Good Vinyl. This release is already a genre classic and will be heard on many a DJ's platter for years to come!" Guest vocalists include: Rasco & Tricky.

Title:	Hitchhiking Non Stop With No Particular Destination
Label:	STUD!O K7 (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	K7 126CD

"The long-awaited second album from the trio of Mastermind Fetisch, Meister and Shapemod (DJ Kaos is currently in the studio working on his new project Ghost Cauldron). It's twelve new tracks to which the standard hyperbole favored by music critics no longer comes close to what is being heard. This is the sound of now; a new chapter in the development of Terranova's signature dark-side sound. Hitchhiking is a quick and dirty affair, full of fuzzed-out melodies and- gasp- crunchy guitars; a clash of baggy jeans, leather, metal and electronics. Inspired by hip-hop, Detroit techno and punk rock, Terranova's sound is much more than the sum of these parts. It goes down deep -- to where the soul resides, to where those voices inside your head come from. For beneath the tattoos and t-shirts are three musicians with literally years of experience rocking parties and churning out killer songs. They understand what it takes to make music that is relevant to audiences around the world, whether there is a dance floor involved or not. In that sense, Terranova are musical citizens of the world, hanging around with their thumbs out, samplers in hand."

Title:	Peace Is Tough
Label:	STUD!O K7 (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	K7 154CD

"Berlin's resident audio experimentalists Terranova return with a stunning album that refuses to be easily classified. Fresh off last year's Hitchhiking Nonstop With No Particular Destination, the crew of Fetisch, Meister and Shapemod wasted no time in creating a powerful companion piece to that album. Together with Hitchhiking..., Peace Is Tough forms a sort of double album by fusing together five new tracks with six new versions of previously released tracks (which have so far only been available on vinyl or in limited editions). Never the kind to create nondescript dance tracks, Terranova take their loves for hip-hop, electro, rock and dub and throw them all into their bombastic music bouillabaisse. Fuzzed-out guitars collide with rough beats to form dark, yet danceable tracks. Vocals come courtesy of dreadlocked punk princess Ari-Up, the stepdaughter of the Sex Pistols' Johnny Rotten and singer from seminal punk/new wave misfits The Slits. Ari's one-of-a-kind voice brings an urgent energy to Terranova's thumping rhythmic backbone."
