"P. Diddy may have, ahem, 'invented the remix,' but now Berlin's Vakant label is turning the concept on its head -- using the remix to (re)-invent the label itself. Vakant R is the newest addition to the imprint's crowded house; alongside the parent label and audio-visual offshoot Vakant X, Vakant R rounds out the minimalist trinity with a stunning debut release featuring Mathias Kaden and Onur Özer going head-to-head in a no-holds-barred battle of the remixes."

Artist:	SMOKE/TOLGA FIDAN, ALEX
Title:	Neds/Ilsa Remixes
Label:	VAKANT R (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	VR 002EP

"On the second release from its remix imprint VR, Berlin's Vakant label comes with the goods, turning out what might be its most far-out release to date -- and at the same time, its most punishingly effective. Going head to head, Glasgow's Alex Smoke and Paris' Tolga Fidan tackle each other's tracks, twisting up knotty rhythms and gauzy electro-acoustic sounds into a battered syntax that expresses one thing: move. This is the real freaky-deeky, and the season's dancefloors will never again be the same."

Artist:	OZER/MATHIAS KADEN, ONUR
Title:	Red Cabaret/Synkope
Label:	VAKANT R (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	VR 003EP

"Third in Vakant R's installment of virtuous interpretations, these remixes stand on their own with sincere reverence to their original creations. To our man from Istanbul, Onur Özer's 'Red Cabaret' is paid homage by Amsterdam's Dylan Hermelijn aka 2000andone, by some means pushing the corpulent funk ever skyward. Flipping the black disk finds Jena's Mathias Kaden's 'Synkope' taken to deeper depths of murky understanding by Leipzig's Daniel Stefanik."
