TAGTRÄUMER² – JOURNEY TO JIMI – SCHALLBOX RECORDS – SBR001
Release: 01.03.2009
A new gleaming star in the sky, intending to point the way in the promised land, abates the first misty-eyed, playful publication. Nonetheless jackin‘ house-bounce red threads twist thru all tracks, which could not be more divergent. Excellent, then each one is a grandiose DJ-Tool destined to keep the hearing nerves back in time. Diversify guaranteed and impossible to keep still.
Label owners are the always-on-top Swiss DJ and Producer Steve Cole and the Berlin born Robert Stolt, charactering a part of the DJ- and producing team with the path-breaking name ”Tagträumer²” (=daydreamer²). It was his original contribution, impudent; vibrating propelling was unmistakable Jimi Hendrix’s muse. Like his mentor, he cleverly combined Rock‘n Roll with reveries – today an explosive mixture.
The remix of Tigerskin aka Dub Taylor is a psychedelic sound, that remind us of the best years of bordercommunity, like a nice LSD-trip known in to those days. “The cream on the cake” is Steve Cole’s remix, maximal in defiance of minimal. He compiles the language of the Woodstock heroes into the „Sound of Berlin” and wrapped it into a story, which can be patiently eavesdropped.
