2012 Round Up – New releases by 2CC, DJ Scientist, Deckard and more
We had planned to write this a lot earlier so here is a kind of late overview about what’s going in 2012 on our label – because, actually, there is A LOT!!!

2econd Class Citizen (picture Zia)
First of all, we would like to announce the incredible new album by 2econd Class Citizen, called “The Small Minority” which will be released in early May in cooperation with the new Indie powerhouse Fake Four Inc that will support the US release. It’s 2econd Class Citizen’s second album and we believe that it’s a remarkable step up from his debut LP “A World Without”. The album will be supported with an advance vinyl postcard set (drops February 24th) as well as a single which is scheduled for early April. Furthermore, an album promo mix will be provided by non other than Strictly Kev aka DJ Food. We will soon have more info about all these exciting new releases, so stay tuned!
Next up, Deckard, who blessed us with his astonishing debut album at the end of last year, will drop another single on Equinox for the outstanding album track “Günesim” – this single will include a great remix by an emerging new talent on the German electronic scene, Anthony Drawn, as well as an alternative version by Deckard himself. Moreover, Deckard is about to drop a second album on Equinox still this year!!

DJ Scientist (picture Theresa Legler)
You may already have heard about DJ Scientist’s new EP, “The Artless Cuckoo”, which drops at the end of this week, but, may not be aware that plans are in the works to release his first official debut album this year as well. It is actually his unreleased album from 2006. More news about this will follow shortly.
In addition to finishing his solo stuff, Scientist is also working on a 2nd album with Ceschi. There’s only a few more tracks to be finished – so we all hope that a follow up release to the successful “The One Man Band Broke Up” album will be released this year.
Approximately in late May or June, Greek producer Andreikelos, who blessed us with his great remix of Ceschi’s “Black And White And Red All Over” on New Year’s Eve, will drop a first EP on Equinox called “Euryphaessa”. Be on the lookout for a really beautifully composed and exceptional release in Andreikelos’ trade mark style of organic electronic beats.

Playpad Circus (picture Max Winter)
Producer talent Playpad Circus from Berlin is about to finish work on his EP project. A release date is not fixed yet but this long awaited debut EP, which is likely to be released in cooperation with Project: Mooncircle, should definitely drop in a few months.
Anyone remember the “Leinwand EP” which was one of the few vinyl releases on our sublabel Audiac in 2006? Yes? Good! Aqua Luminus III and Misanthrop have joined forces again to deliver a great follow up EP that contains some seriously dope features by the likes of Ceschi, 2Mex, James PHoney, as well as Germany’s turntablist icon DJ Stylewarz! What more can we say?
Last but not least we have a few uprising new talents to drop music on our label as well. It’s too early to talk about it yet – but we’re ready to drop a serious bunch of great new music this year, so watch out!
And finally, for the end of the year, we would like to announce our 10 year anniversary release which will actually be the next part of our “Sound Exposure” series. Again, it’s still too early to talk about this project, but we’ll definitely keep you updated!

Ceschi – Black And White And Red All Over – Andreikelos Remix

As a special Silvester treat, we decided to release an exclusive remix of Ceschi’s song “Black And White And Red All Over” by Greek producer Andreikelos.
With this new version, Andreikelos provides us with a darker and more electronic perspective of the song, but still tries to maintain a portion of the romantic and melancholic feel of the original – DJ Scientist produced – version.
You can download the release for free via our bandcamp account:

Left Field Documentary w/ Ceschi, DJ Scientist & 2econd Class Citizen
End of this month, the great left fields documentary (that partly features the Equinox artists Ceschi, 2econd Class Citizen and DJ Scientist) will be available on DVD.

OFFICIAL LEFT FIELDS TRAILER from idunno on Vimeo.
Here is more info about the documentary:
Interviewing MCs, label operators, producers and bookers, “left fields” explores the network of genre-crossing artists such as Ceschi, Noah23, Babel Fishh, Th’ Mole, Gonjasufi, Robot Koch, Comfort Fit, Fulgeance, Oskar Ohlson, who collaborate within networks across Germany, Switzerland and Austria. So basically it is a lot about the spirit and maybe punk attitude of this movement.
Working with a very limited budget “left fields” tries to provide an insight into the alternative hip hop scene featuring various concerts, the development of art work (design, screen-printing, etc.) and of course the opinions and stories of everyone involved. “left fields” comes with a hand-made, screen printed cover on a limited edition DVD and is going to be launched in Austrian cinemas and festivals in December 2011.

Ceschi’s “Shorted Circuits EP” Reviewed On Data Transmission
Check a cool review of Ceschi & DJ Scientist’s “Shorted Circuits EP” on Data Transmission:
http://www.datatransmission.co.uk/ViewReview/2385/
“The muscular, loud confusion of jazz and funk from DJ Scientist (…) gets topped with an anguished translation of affection in an ode to Ceschi’s late grandmother, offering half a nod to Cage at his most analytical in death.”

By the way: does anybody wonder why this picture disc is red and kind of breaks with the traditional Equinox colors? Well, as this is a record dedicated to Ceschi’s grandmother, he asked us if it could be in her favourite color, which is red. Futhermore, the colors fitted kind of nicely with the “Black And White And Red All Over” title.
