For Fünf, a 2xCD compilation celebrating the 5th anniversary of Ostgut Ton, the label asked some core artists to contribute tracks specially made for the comp. The label is home to heavy weight artists Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann and Shed (amongst others). Ostgut Ton, managed by Nick Höppner and official label of Berlin’s Berghain and Panorama Bar, took the concept of melting the club and label a step further by asking British artist Emika to collect field recordings sourced from Berghain for artists to use on their exclusive tracks for the Fünf compilation. Tracks were created forging the club sourced field recordings from the previously mentioned artists as well as Tama Sumo, Marcel Fengler, Norman Nodge, Prosumer, Soundstream, Luke Slater and Dinky.

Fünf is due to release next week and you can stream three of the tracks from Shed, Fiedel (1/2 of MMM) and Len Faki via FACT.

Dettmann Remixed

Marcell Dettmann is rightfully following in the footsteps of his Ostgut Ton label mates and releasing a full length album. Preceding his self titled debut is Dettmann Remixed. Four tracks are handed to Norman Nodge and Wincent Kunth for remix treatments. Norman Nodge takes ‘Shift’ and ‘Unrest’, Wincent Kunth ‘Vertigo’ and ‘Wound Up’. Nodge keeps it straight forward with his remixes while Kunth pulls out a couple of impressively deep grooves.
