Catalog #:	MKX 006CD

"Fans of the visionary and unmistakable sound aesthetics of Holger Flinsch have been anticipating this moment for long time: after two incredibly strong single releases ('Run For Cover' and 'On The Border') the long awaited album release of Holger Flinsch on Mikrolux finally hits the streets. With Regayov, Flinsch now gets to play out his unique understanding for minimalistic grooves in full playing time. The result is an outstanding hypnotic masterpiece that manages to thrill its listeners with incredible atmospheric density. The many melancholic compositions with extremely creative names, mix with dark noise monsters, igniting subtile grooves between old-school ('Deretla') und high-tech ('Sloptsea'). Songs with a wonderful romantic electronic feel to them enchant everyone who is listening while provoking a permanent state of trance. In their emotional deepness, Flinschs music even manages to remind of the fragile melancholy that one usually only finds in the releases of Björk."

Catalog #:	MKX 007CD

"People who are very familiar with the recent Elektrolux history should have best memories about the man behind this massive album release. When releasing his groundbreaking debut Midnight Drive, Jonas Thor Gudmundsson aka Ruxpin was one of youngest, yet one of the most promising artists within the Elektrolux family. Now the 21 year old music talent from Iceland comes back in full effect with his second longplayer beating all expectations by far. Ruxpins epic masterpiece 'Avalon' embraces the two chapters 'Arrival' and 'Departure', which contains a total number of 29 outstanding songs. Both parts of the album deliver an impressive proof of Ruxpin talent to blend dreamy melodies with electronic grooves. Again and again the Iceland-sound typical fairy tale melodies get distorted by tiny sound fragments, just to change themselves into fragile but incredibly funky chillout tracks. With this album release, Ruxpin has definitely opened up a marvelous new chapter in his musical career. After having performed with the pop stars like Björk and Alex Paterson (The Orb) as well as an underwater concert in the city of Reykjavik, Jonas Thor Gudmundsson is bound to present more wonderful surprises in the near future."

Artist:	SNIPER MODE & MBP
Title:	Travellers Beyond
Label:	MIKROLUX (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	MKX 009CD

"Welcome back to the wonderful world of Sniper Mode. It is almost unbelievable at which pace the project of Gregor Trescher has evolved over the past eighteen months: following a highly acclaimed debut, the young talent Trescher has gathered some respect with a series of outstanding remixes. Yet, this new long-player is not a Sniper Mode solo album but is a joint venture with Swiss producer Murat Boyuk Pilavci aka MBP. It reflects an intense collaboration which has been going on for more than three years now. Despite all distances, Trescher/Pilavc have constantly met to work on Travellers Beyond in their Swiss and German studios and created the fifteen tracks of the album. The combined style of the two producers is undoubtedly characterized by most tricky beat arrangements and an irresistible electro sound which shows reference to techno as well as electronica influences and therefore creates a vent unique atmosphere..."

Artist:	TWOFOURTEEN
Title:	Esemplastic
Label:	MIKROLUX (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	MKX 011CD

"Chris Roman, the man behind TwoFourteen, is of Puerto Rican origin, has been living in Florida for most of his life and with outstanding talent did manage to establish his very own style in the eleven tracks of his first album. Spheric and relaxing electro grooves ('Above See Level') meet acid-housy movers ('Distancia'), while sensitive android hymns ('Plugs') and futuristic roboter songs ('Idiomflux') mix up with funk-loaded rhythm excursions ('Surfaced'). And there are no better words for the associations set free by this future electro than those described about producer and DJ Chris Roman's musical style: 'A lap dance in the side room of a space ship'."
