Bedrock 14
I m really happy with the 21 tracks I have selected for this latest Bedrock compilation. With a mixture of Bedrock favourites and fresh new producers this album shows that Bedrock is always committed to finding the best electronic music out there. - John Digweed The wealth of artists involved for Bedrock 14 is truly amazing. This 2012 label compilation captures the essence of why electronic dance music is such an exciting prospect right now by showcasing amazing underground talent, both established and new. What a dream start to what should be a highly successful career for Eagles & Butterflies. The album opens with the beautifully mellow Kollekt , the first of two debut tracks (the other being the equally adventurous Stimmer ) from this new artist. Likewise, Kurtz & Bomber, an exciting collaboration between Troy Kurtz & Panic Bomber (Richard Haig) from Miami, USA debut here with the incredibly infectious vocalized Never Sleeping .John Digweed s ability to draw together an exciting array of international talent into one cohesive whole is pretty much unparalleled. Resistance by Stuttgart s Solee, shows exactly why he crosses divides and spans genres with his distinctive take on evocative melodic techno. Spain s Paneoh (who also appeared on Structures 2 and Live In Cordoba ) displays all his hyper-energetic twisted brilliance on Vetabom , while one of Australia s most talented and sought after music producers, Infusion s Jamie Stevens, makes a welcome return to Bedrock (after his exceptional remix of John Digweed s Warung Beach ) with Indigo . Rising UK star, Liverpool s Jemmy, is given the lush remix treatment on his hypnotic Quarry Bank track by Greece s Stelios Vassiloudis, whose critically acclaimed debut album, It Is What It Is , showed the world that variety is indeed the spice of life. So, it s no wonder that Stelios makes three appearances on Bedrock 14, adding his wild acidic grooved What s That? to the proceedings and teaming up with Florian Kruse and Nils Nurnberg as Wiretappeur for Iridescent , another example of this trio s highly original and deep understanding of the power of melody.Bedrock s new talent is in exceptional form throughout. Canada s Maher Daniel teams up NYC s Nikko Gibler for the low-slung, spiralling beauty of I ll Wait For You . Maxime Dangles has grown to be a key new artist in the French avant-garde electronic music community and is creating waves around the globe with his unabashed approach to proper club techno music, so its not surprise that Unsteady Curve is yet another example of his amazing music. Fellow rising French star, Antoine Husson (aka Electric Rescue), brings his distinctive brand of ultra-dynamic techno and sensuality to the party with an exceptional remix of John Digweed & Nick Muir s Raise and his own monster creation, Stucked Ship .Israeli producer Guy J has become one of the most sophisticated and emotive producers in electronic music over the last decade, with a body of work and a sphere of influence that belies relatively short time in the spotlight. With the melody-rich and emotionally charged Mish Mash , he shows exactly why he is one of the most inspirational artists in the world. As are Spain s Marc Marzenit and Henry Saiz, whose Sirens Land explains why their complex and emotive form of electronic club music is exciting so many people right now.So much exceptional talent is on display on Bedrock 14 and we haven t even mentioned Germany s Robert Babicz, whose music career already spans two decades. The mark of a true musical innovator, he continues to reveal his talent and skill as one of Europe's most essential techno producers here with another stunning creation, Eastside . Then there s another Bedrock favourit
