On the 10th of August Music Krause will release Ian Simmonds new album named “The Burgenland Dubs”.
There are stories which like fairy tales find a musical determination. The treasured Ian Simmonds, who currently is performing as singer and poet on tour in Japan with a 18-piece Japanese improvisational orchestra, is responsible under his given name and as Juryman for the most innovative thrust in view of new paths on the electronic scene. He left London in 2005 and began a new chapter in the east German province of scenic Jena in Thuringia. His roots lie in the electronic innovative British scenery in the first half of the 90ís rave era. On his 2000 opus “The Hill”, Allison Goldfrapp lent elfin vocals, all the while meeting and greeting with greats of music and now he is searching for a new beginning on the German mainland.

Cologne, Germany’s legendary electronic house label Kompakt brings us “Adaptations – Mixtape #1″.
It’s always entertaining to drive around Cologne with ADA. The conversation starts off with a saga about her trip to the city car impound thanks to her illegally parking her chariot, while tunes crackle through her relic of a car stereo cassette player. Looking back, our trips always seem to end with chorusing some Madonna single, one guarantee ADA always has some track or song that I’ve never heard on these overdubbed cassette tapes and which stays with me for the rest of the night.
