KEDI 2 Record Release on Baumusik

Sunday, 19th April 2020

I am proud to be included on this compilation from Baumusik. Available via Bandcamp digitally and on USB flash drive. All winnings will go to Stand by me Lesvos. Listen to this fun preview with personal announcements.

“The Cologne underground and DYI scene comes out of its smokey basement with this diverse compilation where electronica, kraut-techno, and synthwave, rub shoulders with 80s dreampop, housy dancefloor tunes, and quirky oddballs.

KEDI 2 isn’t just a compilation and an ode to the unique and sacred 4/20 month. It’s also a cute, foldable, black 3D-printed USB-stick cat: the baumusik kedi. A special piece of art for music lovers, DJs, and collectors out there!

Get ready for a weird and wonderful musical journey compiled by our DJ Monibi. Featuring baumusik all-time favourites like romantics Koxette (IT, LU), dadaist druid Jeandado, dentists Cindy Moped and the Lark, new waver Opan (NZ), doom electronix artist Timothy Shearer (US). KEDI 2 also features baumusik debutants such as French-Czech pilot Antoine Bobicz; Tokyo-based kraut-techno band Bohrmaschine (US, DE); Berlin-based experimental electronica producer Kritzkom (FR); The Hague-based field-recordist Leonie Roessler (US/DE). KEDI 2 showcases the best of local eccentrics’ talent featuring music from Aerobics ft. Fairy, Kashoggi, HADE, Ruther, Serpiente, Cuy Borracho, BritKat, and Jakob Lebsanft.

The profits generated by the sale of KEDI 2 will be donated to charity working in refugee camps in Greece. www.standbymelesvos.gr

“Eigenwilliges gibt es genauso gut näher an Zuhause. In Köln haben wir dafür das Musik/Kunst/Galerie/Literatur-Kollektiv Baumusik, von denen es nun KEDI 2 (Baumusik), die zweite Ausgabe des exklusiven USB-Stick-Samplers in Form einer Stretch-Katze, gibt. Wie nicht besser gewohnt, mixen sich in den exklusiven Stücken liebenswerter Plumpaquatsch, japanophile Porn-Kraut-Synthesizer und feinster Electro-Techno völlig ungefiltert. Was hier neben- und ineinander geht, macht halt einfach total viel Sinn und Laune.”
