Kiss [Vinyl]

Description

Double-12" vinyl version of Axel Bartsch's debut full-length, Kiss, previously released on CD by Karmarouge. After a few 12" releases on Kompakt, Sportclub and Spielzeug, Axel Bartsch made the final decision to name his album Kiss because of his passion for music... because music is like kissing -- highly emotional and sensual, as the feeling of approaching lips. These are melodic and energetic tracks that space out into ambience against minimalist hooks, classic techno, dub, and vocal experimentation, dipping into the abstractness of familial and emotional electronic soundscapes. Kiss celebrates the glorious pressure and tension felt in the body when the dancer is animated by a grooving techno current -- moving, throbbing, and finally being released in hisses and pops, like being kissed by music.
