A new release from Rune Reilly Kolsch—known as Kolsch—a master from Copenhagen, Denmark, has been released on EXTRA, a sub-label of the renowned Cologne techno label KOMPAKT! A mesmerizing 125 BPM track that marks a new chapter in KOMPAKT’s history as Kolsch—whose sound might best be described as “techno-folk”—ventures into uncharted territory, evoking the gentle, euphoric glow of the morning after a night of partying, Side B, “Verschwinden” (sample 1), is uniquely fresh and simply wonderful.
Track List
The man with the hat returns to where it all began. A lot of water has flowed down the Rhine since Rune Reilly Kölsch set out 16 years ago to conquer the raving planet with “Loreley.” But just as that rock stands firm against the floodwaters, so too is Kölsch’s instinct for great tracks, great emotions, and great moments. “Anti Promi Energie” is yet another track that generates incredible energy with astonishing ease. The B-side isn’t just a true standout within the Kölsch canon; it also opens a remarkable new chapter in the label’s history: “Verschwinden” can best be described as techno-folk—or simply as the ideal final track after a night of partying, before the dawn swallows up the happy souls.
With a BPM of 130, Side A’s “Anti Promi Energie” (sample 2)—a sweet, rave-infused European track that radiates overwhelming energy to get the dance floor moving during peak hours—also delivers an exhilarating electronic trance experience. (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)
