[preview] Klamauk 003 - V/A



The Mainz based vinyl outfit, Klamauk, is back with their 3rd release, another perfectly matched Various Artist lineup. If you aren't familiar with Klamauk 001 and 002, they come with hand painted original artwork on the sleeve. 003 is no exception, and should be available in September of 2010.


A1: frivolous – candle-light ave

Track 1 starts with a light, stabby disco-esque house track by Frivolous. With spacey chords and a string section to keep the dancefloor alive, the rhythm is very much alive in this track.

A2: grifin – up class

Track 2 is a more toned and rigged house look, with a classic rhythm section underneath wonky horns and an inaudible (to this American) French voice-over. Towards the middle of the track, a soft lead comes in to give the listener a lighter feel to the music.

B1: tilman – oskar

Track 3 is another great tune from Klamauk head, Tilman. With a calm rhythm section and wacky sounds, it's undeniable that this has the Mainz producer's signature sound engraved. A nice rolling, shaped synth leads the charge through this track and finishes through the end.

B2: leif – alphabetti

The last track on the release is a deeper venture, keeping the same mood as all the tracks before it, though. With more bleepy goodness that keeps the Klamauk label fresh and interesting, Leif brings with him a tight minimal groove filled with lush drum beats and soft chords.
