PAMPACD007 – DJ Koze – Amygdala” finally a new DJ KOZE a true KOZALLA”

DJ Koze – Amygdala” finally a new DJ KOZE a true KOZALLA”

“We need to eat, we need to sleep and we need music !” if an album starts with such a deep and fundamental truth it must be a brilliant HEAD behind the concept , great minds are a like , Friedrich Nietzsche “LIFE without music is a mistake ”

“Amygdala by  DJ Koze ” finally a new DJ KOZE a true KOZALLA”; under the own flag the “PAMPA LABEL ” in BERLIN released  DJ KOZE aka STEFAN KOZALLA give us new album which is a bouquet .a crazy variety between genres , it is full real electro sounds we love  , DJ  KOZE  is not easy to fit under one cap , you can say he is Techno , is he indie ,you can hear his Hanse CITY influence of HOUSE powered driven PASSION , ya PASSION is the one constant you can discover in his sound scape and artwork , but there is ADOLF NOISE aka DJ KOZE who breaks with all concepts so he breaks satirical with hip hop and DJ KOZE is in German SLANG a “HANS DAMPF in allen GASSEN” , you can find him always with a bottle of Astra there where good sound is , IN AMYGDALA is a nice and solid HOUSE ALBUM by DJ KOZE but the little different is to found in the details , his technique and love to all kinds of sounds. DJ KOZE had summoned a bunch of artist of the electro scene and beyond the busy working at “war and peace theatrical adaptation ‘APPARAT aka SASHA RING,MILOSh, ADA, CARIBOU, MATTHEW DEAR, TOMERIE and MAIKO to colaborate with him.

AND one of the great who died in the year 2002 ;HILDEGARD KNEF who is the GRAND DAME of GERMAN CHANSON who did  not lose her CHARM she did got the appeal the je ne sais  pas , the it thing which DJ KOZE fitted in”Ich Schreib’ Dir ein Buch” a real brilliant CHANSON where he fits a CHANSON with funky details , to a brilliant gem of a tune with HILDEGARD KNEF SAMPLES.

Nevertheless the last tune  here with TOMERIE and MAIKO; it is the last tune  in his release which is always the cherry on the top , the tune which made the DJ KOZE a true STEFAN KOZALLA ,extraordinaire , extra avantgade  and a perfect concept of an album which is telling the story how does STEFAN KOZALLA aka DJ KOZE love music itself , this last tune  always frame the whole artwork build a bridge with the first tune so that  the last tune and  all the tunes between made it so complete one  ,his knowledge of sounds is like a crazy compendium , a wonderful one .the love to the details made it a funky playful one  , real kinky one, must be the HAMBURG house flair  , a sexy one ,SOUND and MUSIC DJ KOZE is his metier; “music ” is  the water and he is the fish, sum it up AMYGDALA is an ALBUM which is” a must have” DJ KOZE, is just  brilliant

Pampa is the label from old pals DJ Koze and Marcus Fink, dedicated to releasing club music that’s seriously danceable without recourse to the tried and tested ingredients. A home for house and techno tunes that will conquer hearts and take root there forever, music that’s brave and not afraid to break with convention.
By signing artists such as Die Vögel and their “Blaue Moschee”, or Jackmate & the Missing Linkx with their “Discodisco2”, Axel Boman’s “Holy Love” EP, Nathan Fake and soon Isolée, Robag Wruhme .. DJ Koze and Marcus have proven that Pampa doesn’t consecrate technical musical perfection for its own sake, but serve the purpose of giving birth to great music.

and nevertheless his FADER mix a few days a ago was just brilliant ,thanks to the online FADER MAGAZINE we got a witty interview with maestro DJ KOZE himself to find here  www.thefader.com/2013/03/21/fader-mix-dj-koze

brilliant mix with a free dl
