Review: How would you like to celebrate a special birthday? Would you prefer to wallow in sweet memories or would you prefer to look out for new future adventures ? Elektrolux seems to choose the second and, for their 10th Anniversary, releases a double CD which contains more than 20 previously unreleased tracks by some of the most renowned contemporary electronic listening producers (such as Aural Float, Fresh Moods, The Sushi Club, Gabriel Le Mar, Fous De La Mer, Ruxpin, Fortunato & Montresor and many more) and on top represents a comprehensive anthology with all known electronic listening styles 2005. Carefree summer excursions into the history of synthesizers (Groovecatcher 'The Electronic Kick'), slowmotion vocoder with mediteranean jazz (Guardner 'Everybody Needs'), tragic- melancolic dub- organs (Subtonal 'Back Home'), enchanting ambienttrance strings (Aural Float 'Still Here – Instrumental'), soulhouse hymns with analyzer crooning (Jean F. Cochois 'Electronique Love – Naoki Kenji Remix') or highly dramatic electro trance (Ruxpin 'Kiteboarding in the summer – Sniper Mode Remix'), everything’s possible. The Elektrolux Decade Compilation presents the perfect symmetry between harmonic high class electronic listening and a relaxed and modern understanding of dance-pop.

va-ted-2cd-flac-2006-csa.rarAdditional Info:Almost five years after it's foundation, Elektrolux has build up a strong reputation beyond the borders of Germany. The output of the Frankfurt based label ranges from Ambient and Electro to Dub, often incorporating other contemporary musical styles like House, Downbeat/Broken Beats or Drum'n'Bass. Many Elektrolux releases work in the Club while at the same time serving the need for musical experiments. The philosophy of the label, the unity of sound and vision, manifests itself not only in innovative high quality music, but also in the pretentious cover artwork. The list of artists releasing on Elektrolux is long and incorporates projects from Germany as well as from the UK, the USA, the Netherlands and even Iceland. Acts like Full Moon Fashions (London) or the chill out specialists Aural Float (Frankfurt) have received international acclaim, the US-german experimental outfit Insect Jazz and multi media performers Supreme Particles have also released first class productions on Elektrolux. Germanys leading Electro artist, Anthony Rother, delivered a considerable club hit with his 12" "Redlight District", Dub Mix Convention produced one of the best german Dub longplayers so far. Other milestones of electronic music came from Frankfurt based projects Fresh Moods, Subtonal and Syrinx 2600 as well as Babel from Iceland, Apollo 440s DJ Harry K. and the Netherland's Quantum Leap.
Since 1996, Elektrolux is cooperating with the south german TV station Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR), creating the well known audio visual "Space Night" project. Label mastermind Alex Azary is not only responsible for compiling the various artists series under the same title, he also takes part in the creation of the visual concept. The latest CD-, vinyl- and video-collaboration, "Space Night Vol. V - Earthviews VI", is well received by lovers of electronic music as well as TV night programme watchers. The soundtrack is released by Eastwest and Elektrolux, the tv special is shown every night on BR. By the end of 1997 Elektrolux started the compilation series Ambient Diary, Elektro Codes and Dub Backups with not only artists from the Elektrolux stable but also associated projects. The success of the Volumes One was even topped by Volumes Two, which were released in late 1998. The whole series (so far six releases with 10 CDs) has become a standard in the collections of electronic music lovers. After the success of the recently released debut album by The Sushi Club, the label has more new productions by acts like DJ Harry K., Autopilot, üNN, Drøn, Index ID and Syncromatic Dubsters on the agenda. Also upcoming are the Volumes Three of the Ambient Diary, Elektro Codes and Dub Backups compilations.
