Re-release of "The TERM Signal" and more!

Two new rotorik releases are scheduled on the newly founded purely digital label "rotodrôme recordings"! Starting off with rotorik's perhaps most well-known release: In 2001 he was the first and last German artist ever to release a vinyl on Cristian Vogel's cult imprint "Mosquito" - of course we're talking about "Sending All Processes The TERM Signal" (Mosquito 018) including the smash hit "Kawasaki Rhythm Rocker"! The release was blended by sound sorceror Vogel himself and sold out quickly of course. Since then it was unavailable and a rare item. Now it's your chance to get hold of these classic tracks since it it going be re-released digitally as roto-02 in May 2007! In case you don't know them yet - check the excerpts in the discography!


"rotodrôme recordings" is not only about re-releases though. In June 2007, a collection of previously unreleased rotorik tracks from the vast archives of CS as "riskant 1". Even earliest demos will be included, back from the time when rotorik was still named rotor! The first volume of the "riskant" series is going to feature mostly tracks from 1998-2002 - the time when "TERM Signal" was also created. The style ranges from extremely experimental to extremely physically demanding - those who use this for MP3 jogging might end up in another dimension...

Links to both releases will be supplied at release time!

 

+ rotorik promoted by David Bowie... ;-)

- "Danger Phreak"
, a rotorik track from last year's "Live At The Rotodrôme" (Acido004) has been licensed to Nokia for their new service "Music Recommenders" [http://www.musicrecommenders.com/]. It's basically another MP3 shop, the difference is that this big company relies on a world-wide network of underground/independent shops to recommend them new, daring music in various genres. So no need to be afraid of rotorik getting commercial...

Apart from rotorik, Nokia also has a certain David Bowie as "godfather" who says: "Waking up to a new sound or new band is something that makes my day just that bit more exciting. Unfortunately, so much music goes unheard, especially things that dont bow to the mainstream. Music Recommenders help navigate the undiscovered music that is out there."

No money was certainly involved in getting this statement from Mr. Bowie. Yet still it's the only chance at the moment to buy rotorik digitally, so worth a look!

In a sucking way though, this service is only accessible by Windows+IE at the moment, which should change in future updates.

- Fragments from the latest rotorik show can be seen along with some TET footage in a video clip that can be downloaded for free. With TET preparing for the support show for Front 242 in Brussels, CS spontaneously chose to perform several TET tracks solo in rotorik context, in order to test the latest modifications. The show took place in the cosy town of Lneburg near Hamburg in a rather strange environment - see it for yourself... in the "visual" section!

- TET - Travailleur En Trance (CS' other project) successfully completed their mission at "Two Nights with Front 242" at the Ancienne Belgique in the heart of Brussels/Belgium. The inventors of Electronic Body Music themselves had commanded TET to reinforce the line-up at this unique double event which celebrated Front 242's 25th year of existence. For more information and video footage head over to TET-ZENTRUM!

 


- The last copies of the long-announced rotorik/TET split release "Phantom Commando EP" are available at:

manoeuvre records online shop (http://manoeuvre.de)

rotorik is pushing techno to the edge in two new tracks on the A-side : "We Shall Overheat" and "Strucklahnungshrn" - preview MP3s can be found as in the audio section! Check them!



- Coming up next: "rotorik live at the rotodrôme" on Acido (004), which constitutes rotorik's first live release. Created on various Reaktor ensembles created and used during rotorik gigs 2001-2005, the vinyl 12" will also mark a certain change in sound and style. No rotorik record released so far has been done "the live way" - so get ready for some surprises!

The recording sessions are currently being finished at the rotodrme - expect the release in December!

In other news, distribution of Acido Records has just been taken over by Hardwax, Berlin, which also means that Acido 002 (featuring "TET vs. rotorik - Sektor Champion") will no longer be available via Neuton!
