about

Starting out in 2001 as a mere compilation series to tie up some loose ends from our regulars, SPEICHER has since become a guarantee for vanguard dance sounds from all over the planet, allowing KOMPAKT to invite and support electronic artists that comfortably inhabit both the delicate and the more deliberate ends of the electronic music spectrum. For Speicher 72, both Berlin stalwart NICK HÖPPNER and polyrhythmic mastermind AUNTIE FLO present essential tracks fitted for maximum floor response.

OSTGUT TON label head and PANORAMA BAR resident DJ, NICK HÖPPNER is a well-known renaissance man, entrancing dance floors worldwide with impeccable taste and narrative verve. As a DJ and producer, he finds great artistic freedom in the classic four-on-the-floor layout while updating the blueprint with a serious longing for sonic adventure. IPSO FACTO – his KOMPAKT debut - perfectly showcases a different side to his standard fare, opting to taking a firm grip on the deeper shades of Techno. He balances industrial styles with more groove-inducing flavours and takes a rather restricted sound palette to impressive heights. It’s what the tip of the iceberg might sound like, a not-so-subtle hint at a massive body hiding beneath sea level.

Brian D’Souza aka AUNTIE FLO hails from Glasgow, where he honed his craft as purveyor of rhythmic diversity. Influenced by Chicago House, Kwaito, advanced Pop and various Bass hybrids, he draws from an imposing amount of sound sources, but still manages to keep the flow focused and his message clear. On the heels of his debut full length on Huntley & Palmers which Resident Advisor proclaimed as “dance floor dynamite 4/5”, SUN RITUAL is a particularly fine example of Brian’s magic, shaking and rattling incessantly while making its way to the centre of attention, an ever-rising hike to the top of the mountain dipped in light.
