1. Phone call
While K+D were hanging out at the G-Stone lounge, Ellen the
health instructor at G-stone leisure 1 handed them over the
telephone. It was a guy from Germany, who called himself the
mighty Horst. Since K+D were relaxing in a jacuzzi with Luna de
Morantos of Heus 69 they could not understand more than the
word - compilation. K+D immidiately said no because compilations
nowadays tend to be boring anyway. After days and days of please
do it, STUD!O K7 came with an offer that suited them: drugs,
money, mo' drugs + money and then some gals and their sisters.
Since K+D are not made of wood they gave in.
2. Berlin
Flying to Berlin takes about 74 minutes, which can be a very long
time. So, STUD!O K7 chartered a private jet full of cool gals to
ease K+D's hard and long flight. Horst knows about the important
things in life. In the evening, the K7 crew took K+D to a cheap
Italian joint. There they worked out some ideas. After two bottles of
Chianti, K+D convinced STUD!O K7 that there is a way where
Germans and Austrians can work together. So, the crew left for the
bathroom - hell knows what they did there - returned with big
smiles and said: "Yes - you're right!"
3. Production
To get away from the - one track after the other - compilation
concept, K+D checked in at HAVLIS - SUPER SOUND where their
man Alex (don of the echo chambers) has a secret dub-laboratory.
There K+D did a dubsession on the selected tracks to inject some
dynamics and life into it. They took two bottles of Highland park
whisky and their old dub-echoes from the cellar and did a
smoked-out dubecho-orgy. The new track and a slight headache
was the result.
4. Finale
When the mighty Horst got the tape of the finished session, he had
to listen to it on his old skool cassette answering mchine. The
rumour has it, that due to the awesome expenses for K+D he had to
sell his car with his new stereo but nevertheless he was happy. |

" [...] Everything on this has been subtly tweaked and twiddled by the
deranged beat-ologists, so we're treated to mutant versions of
Hardfloor's 'Dadamnophreaknoizphunk?', Aquasky's 'Kauna',
Herbalizer's 'A Mother' and Small World's 'Livin Free', all segued
into a languid, slo-beat symphony. K&D; blend acid, drum'n'bass,
jazzy hip hop and disco-funked house with more intelligence than
Steven Hawtin on smart drugs. Listen to this and sink deeper and
deeper into a subterranean world of the duo's own design, a far-off
place where eyelids droop and everything moves in ultra
slow-motion.
The best freestyle mix since Coldcut's 'Journey By DJ?' Possibly.
A brilliant taster for Kruder & Dorfmeister's forthcoming debut? For
sure." (Rob Fearn, mixmag #10/96) |
