Catalog #:	MKR 001CD

Wuzzelbud KK is the first Musik Krause release for German electronic artist Gabor Schablizki, aka Robag Wruhme (Beefcake, Wighnomy Brothers) from 2004, now officially re-released in the U.S. The Wruhme universe manages with a wink to equip a whole sound universe, somewhere in the realm of Perlon and Herbert Manier. A completely unique, forceful techno-minimal house with substantial volume, twists, tension, longing and bass felt throughout the body, along with distinctive samples bringing both listeners and dancers under his spell. For the first track, Mr. Robag uses a melody which has been ghosting about on some data medium since 1996. Constructed perhaps for the electronic project Beefcake, the melody has subsequently been refined from the old and adapted for the new. Especially glossy, without sacrificing the identify of the album, is the track "K.T.B." ("Kick This Braunhaufen"). And why pay so much money for Erykah Badu when in Germany you have vocalist Dehlia, whose voice blossoms next to jazz-besprinkled beats. Wuzzelbud KK is an extensive table full of gifts, embellished with fine electronic ingredients, full of kicking beats, homogeneity, wit and charm. Beats for your neck and limbs, sounds for the heart, sounds for the head. It is simply demanding electronic music which is taken home from the club -- straightforward digital Frickelfunk -- body-rock for peace and laughter.

Title:	The Lost Archive 1998-2007
Label:	MUSIK KRAUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	MKR 002CD

This is the second solo release on the Musik Krause label for German electronic artist, Robag Wruhme (Gabor Schablizki, Beefcake, Wighnomy Brothers). For Robag, spring cleaning revealed some critical gems on his desk and in his computer and skull. If that which essentially was on its way to rot, now sounds as if in fact there is purpose, he figured it was about time to release the fruits of labors past and future in the form of a CD EP. This release has also been enriched with a pair of fitting tracks which appeared on some previously-released vinyl records. The Lost Archive is a small collection of 9 greats, manifested from Robag's own script and recollections without the genre being evangelized.

"He only touches his electronic toys, when his appetite craves artful noisemaking. With the teaser tracks 'Quetsche' and 'Konkklusiv', which are not included with the Robag Wruhme album, what you don't find on the album comes out here. 'Wuzzelbud "KK"' starts off in classic Chicago jack-style and is driven by a break and female voice sample through an intense, shuffling beat. Which, through superimposed, discordantly shining, psycho bass sounds, are refined through renewed breaks and echo sounds. The track is brought to an end through a booming bass line. 'Quetsche' is a trip to the center of the earth with a dancing sir capitan Wruhme at the helm. Or, perhaps cosmic 'Winnetou-house', which shows us where we all come from and eventually all must go until Manitou takes us to his kingdom. 'Konkklusiv' is the bending of minimal house taken from the harmonically experimental pages of Warp and Morr Music. A discreet bass line, and playful hi-hat are carry you gently on the surface, showing you how large the ocean is."

"Play me that tune from wood! Metaboman and Carlsen Basu probably said to themselves, when they registered with the authorities as the swinging-weirdo pair, Krause Duo Nr. 2 in smallville Jena. Because their raw, smoky, as it were springy technical sound seems to have developed on completely wooden equipment: it resonates spatially, grinding, grating and roaring in the rhythmic forest. The results of all physicists and chemists were subject until now to a fatal flaw, namely that raw material can run the show. These two electro-forest workers supply the proof. Or could it be that the desired equilibrium is manifested by nature, technical achievements and shared understanding, in the form of dance music? If so, it is made for clubs where the porous discharging of body fluids is still more important is than the pierced, solarium-burned, and half-naked in the delirium of the presentation. That being, filthy-frickelravejazz with minimal bongo-techno rushes, of which Motown provided with a wink, the deepness, revealing in the correct moment the sheltered sound box exposed. The sweat-bathed never leave the cellar even though the door stands open and everything is already sore. A little blood runs from the lip and yet a happy grin is managed nevertheless."

"From the land of 'bubblegum popping meets cannabis metropole', the Prussian 'icke' sails forth from the foundation to announce the German electronic scene at your service. On labels such as Textone (net-only,) Tuning Spork, and Context-terrior, Future Dub offers his own style of sound-supplies from other dealers. For Musikkrause that was the spark, which led to an offer he couldn't refuse. No chance when the music already tumbling around in the attach�, whose value is in moving electronically trained minds and legs, is to be scratched on. Particularly when it sounds as if he is coming from a medical apparatus that appears, as though the cheerful 'halli-galli' starts to wane. Hence the twirling on all available equipment, until a rhythmic manifestation emerges, understandably always in the bag of the night-watchmen boring acid of course the nurse isn't coming just to make the bed. The visits in the plans call for severity, giving the patient a chance to really show how well he can move. The flow being not quite fluid, electro-shock is administered. Nonetheless all goes well. However the nurse must proceed with caution to avoid overdose, otherwise there would be no one left to save! Brazil the head doctor is an alien who performs precisely without mistakes, understanding the elements being his medicine. The operation has been endured, everything hurts, and tears must be shed! Well, dancing will heal everything! At last, nature and the body have found harmony again. Bull frog finally it has been done. Medical personnel, pharmacies and therapists are all left without jobs as patients of the hospital are now healed sonically! Frog the longing for freedom allows wounds to heal. Music prevents wounds, the goal of which is to satisfy the demands of the mind that makes freedom possible, through music."

"The truest place in the world is the dance floor, it never lies. And it definitely doesn't with these two 9-minute dance floor ditties. At the most it may betray the body its inertia. The remix, brought to you via Switzerland by way of the Chilean New Prussian Luciano, slides into the ears of dance-happy folk right now. Luciano plays his own favourites of mixed sets from Silberling. Now it finally appears in black grooved vinyl. The other side belongs to the remix from Tobi Neumann, who with the help of his daughter and Richard Wolfsdorf (okay now, apply yourself a little bit, you know who this is!) put some spring into the super balls underneath each jitterbug. The littlest one brings the alphabet into the clubs, where the smokers are tested as to whether they can catch the stammering expressions."

"Someone once answered the question of whether there is a connection between record collections and love this way: 'you know I own 20,000 vinyl, that means I own 20,000 women that can't cheat on me'. With the newest Musikkrause release from Ian Simmonds, one has reason to feel not betrayed, but rather rewarded: collectors, connoisseurs, admirers, ladies, listeners and dancers unite to savor the most exquisite chocolate of the world -- music from the finest cocoas, not sugary, but lightly sweetened. The London-based Ian Simmonds has since the early '90s been all over the world in the tradition of producer and record-spinner mixing modern and futuristic visions to taste. To the melodic table reserved for regulars, as Juryman he brought well-known island music styles such as dub, techno, house, broken-beat, nujazz, film music, jazz, radio, soul, Afro beat, and drum & bass both to cheers and hand-wringing. These efforts courted labels such as Studio K7!, SSR, Compost, among others which promoted Ian Simmonds' albums, EPs and remixes for the masses. Ian Simmonds always knew exactly how club jazz is supposed to sound as well as how the bass, although taking a detour through the brain, can reach the feet. That, ladies and gentlemen, is on display here! And it gets deeper with a hug from Michael Corleone and Don Vito from the best epic of all time. It goes without saying that longtime fan and Musikkrause cohort Metaboman is ready to spin the remix until his fingers are raw. Title 1: Mourning yields hope, tears must capitulate to laughter, stagnancy is replaced by action, inertia replaced by movement and suddenly in detroit the sun rises. An entire land swings right to left and finally chooses the right president! Title 2: Art Blakely , Sun Ra and Thelonious Monk ride together with Kara Ben Nemsi and the kalif of laptop through the croat curtain of a Karl May flick from the '60s. A smoky fireside and the distinctly meditative landscapes' intoxicating spirit channel every fable and fairy into the cultural jazz-body! Title 3: the Serengeti-steppe in the club, everybody dances on the red earth wobbling on bellies full of corn mash and coconut beer. Fela Kuti and Tony Allen are nevertheless software developers of a dynamic connection between black and white title 4/Metaboman remix: razzle-dazzle, klimper-wimper, klepper-pepper, stimmel-wimmel, samba-pamba, hopple-popple, quietsch-popitsch electricity is produced by means of rhythm, healing through the burning of blood! Dance or die to the voodoo of bass and drum!"

Both the hedgehog and eye-winkers are back to transport you to their unique and special world of wood, humor and folklore. However, there will be no sacrifices, only gifts to every soul with a beating heart driven by the power of the rhythmic gyroscope which rocks the body! This here is a storm of tonal and beat- saturated form bringing high and low from the woodwork! Effect, slantedness and musicality melts into lava never again to chill. Trance for all the bodily elements -- a jazz infusion with a melodious hook infused with groove. Next, Metaboman and Carlson Basu do some sunny remixing. And with the last track, the melting of hip-hop and house affinities bodes victoriously.

Even Tuell aka Paul David Rollmann crafts traditional, all-encompassing pieces in the realm of sound research. His is an unusual sound -- dark and distinct, finding the light at the end of the tunnel. Also sharing the bill is Metaboman, one half of the Krause Duo and member of Winnertou. Fashioning creations with diverse musicians on such implements as Rhodes, drums, winds and horns, percussion etc., more life is breathed into this music, as if it were on a live stage. All tracks are pure earthen deepness, drawing out a maximum degree of forward movement. Even ardent hard-line atheists will give themselves as sacrifices to these beats.

This is Mr. Simmonds' second release on Musik Krause. The artist also known as Juryman savors all types of different classic music styles. Rather than chewing them up and spitting them out, he carefully prepares and processes each element to become fine ingredients of his own recipes. These tracks display a composure which few sound arrangers are able to present. This goes beyond pure club music, because Simmons possesses the finest club tools imaginable. Magic moments for those in attendance are a given.

Title:	Papp-Tonikk EP
Label:	MUSIK KRAUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	MKR 019EP

The 19th release from Musik Krause is the Wruhme-esque attack against slushy snow, drizzle, winter depression and glazed frost. "Papp-tonikk"'s loudness detonates with a salacious feeling. The very essence of techno. "Pontifekks" is IDM frivolity with mini-electronica-break massacre noises that sweep through bacchanal dream sequences. "Ikke's Schlonze" finds a little jazz strewn along the shoulder on the main techno thoroughfare. "Hamburg 03.07.06" is ambient and caressing. All that remains is the open road and an old V-dub from Oldenburg to Holzminden.

Artist:	SCHLECK & STECKER
Title:	Moschusmieze
Label:	MUSIK KRAUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	MKR 020EP

Schleck and Stecker sound like analog shepherds with dirty fingernails, providing the needed feed of used motor oil and gummy bears to fuel their gadgetry. Here you will find gruff farmers hard at work, who nonetheless were retrained as bakers. Where in former times there was straw and crap, today there is flour and chocolate, and as garnish a little glitch-dub, kobold vocals, kraut-rock house and UFO melodies. "Frau Aus Matsche" is mind-blowing house with over-modulated frequencies for the nightly sweat outbreak. This is definitely not your customary Prada-minimal and Gucci-techno that has a strangle-hold on the cool capitals of today! Feathery, happy-industrial-jazz-dub-techno for which lactic-acid emanates from every fiber of the muscles.

Robag Wruhme recently decided to reorganize his top shelf and found a few gems up there. With these finds, his residence is an independent state somewhere between the dream and awake; and here, as in the rest of the world, he is a master of the digital sense. Here are six odes officially freshened up and grooved in vinyl, crafted for true romantics and real live-groove favorers who want to be found in the bright lights of the night.

Artist:	DAS KRAUSE DUO
Title:	Ruggi Zuggi
Label:	MUSIK KRAUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	MKR 022EP

Metaboman and his partner Carlson Basu work on a rather social plan of acoustic-electronic sound strokes without an affinity for any specific genre. Together they have created their own cosmos: electric-swing. Slamming, percolating rhythm structure sets the tone so that all know where the dance is going. "Canopolis" is a slimmed-down, cool-sax maximal, "Good Man Invasion" is an authentic and irresistible sunrise joint, "Dance With Me" is a crazy rap shuffle with guest Flowin Immo, and "Egoshooter" is pure Kraus-rave on the mountainside. Early morning nature-techno.
