Aug 19, 2014

Random News #13

Hi and welcome to our Random News #13
It has been a while since our last issue but we will try to keep this as short as possible.
Let’s go…

About a year ago, Equinox founder, DJ Scientist was filmed diggin’ records in Berlin for Diggin Is A Science. A few weeks ago, it was finally published on YouTube!
Enjoy and share!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trxSuVUVIRg

More importantly, his new project together with Fulgeance is about to be released this year in form of a single and full length album.

DJ Scientist dug out a haul of rare samples for the French MPC virtuoso Fulgeance (one half of Souleance) who transformed the source material into one of the most exciting beat maker projects this year: ‘The Soviet Tape‘.

A first single, ‘Moscow Nightlife‘, will be released in late September / early october on First Word Records from the UK and is aimed squarely at the DJs and the diggers with three dope instrumental Hip-Hop tracks.

On the album, you can expect more fire from Fulgeance and DJ Scientist’s beat arsenal as well as some dope features by the likes of Blu, Open Mike Eagle, Distant Starr and more!

* Equinox Records – Organic / Electronic Music – 2002-2013 *

Original German Info below
Quotes from Artists and Friends

+++++++

Dear Fans, Artists, Friends,

Today, I would like to announce that Equinox Records is closing. The “Counter Future – A Sound Exposure Vol. 3” album, the 50th vinyl release on the label, marks the final item.

This announcement takes a load off my mind as this has not been a spontaneous move. The closure has been a decision made in late 2011. At that time it almost seemed impossible as the label has been my life – today, it has proved to be the right step.

There are multiple reasons for the closure. First of all, as founder, father and head of the label, new goals have developed for my life. Unfortunately, this announcement was meant to be kept secret until now. Only a small bunch of near friends and our main artists have been informed in advance.

I have risked a lot for the label and also denied myself of many things. But Equinox Records has simply been a project from the heart. I have experienced a lot of positive things with the label in the past years – and many of my dreams have become true. With unique and individual artists it has been a musical celebration, a big picture with countless nuances, styles and colours.

Even in the past years, the development of the label still seemed to be on track, despite the ubiquitous negative trend in the music business. I have always been sure that our music will reach a wider audience sooner or later. Nevertheless, there has never been a breakthrough for Equinox and I can say for sure that some of our artists would have deserved more attention.

However, I faced the fact that the main goals that I had when I started the label have been reached and that they don’t necessarily have to be measured with plays and hits. Equinox has built up a small world on its own. As I have been involved in the artistic process of most releases, the extensive label catalogue is something that I am extremely proud of personally.

Anyway, I am still a bit sad about the fact that Equinox has always been some kind of outsider: many times the music has been regarded as somewhere in “between”, sometimes as too experimental or as too different. The label has always been confronted with lack of understanding, especially in terms of press and distributions. Though this is something that countless other labels are experiencing as well.

Nevertheless, the actual market-based conditions in the music business have been another essential problem for myself. Even though music in the electronic field can technically be produced with almost no costs, it needs a lot of money to finance the product, to promote and market it, and many other things. Therefore, the extensive label work had to be done with a lack of means. I had to face the fact that I am partly running an exhausting DIY business. In the end, I had to ask myself if I want to continue with the label work, and possibly add another 10 years of running the company, and the answer was a clear “no”.

With the final „Counter Future“ project I wanted to define and demonstrate one more time what Equinox is. I am very content with the compilation and happy that almost all artists, that have accompanied the label over the past years, are part of it. “Counter Future” completes the picture that I have talked about earlier. The album closes some kind of circle, back to the first release.

I am writing all this with a tear in my eye, because an important period in my life ends. I have to thank those who have helped me along the way: all artists, my family, friends and fans. I especially want to thank Dimitris Kountouris for the extensive help in 2012 as the second label manager and talented engineer. Without him and his support I probably wouldn’t have been able to release about 15 releases the last year.

Thanks,
Günter

P.S.:
Almost our complete catalogue will be available today as a free download via Bandcamp for 24 hours. Additionally, we have lowered the prices for many of our items in our shop. These can be ordered directly via Bandcamp though it is better (and cheaper) to buy directly via the Equinox Online Store.

Furthermore, I would like to announce that there will be one more final release on the sublabel Equinox.Digital by Godblesscomputers. Afterwards this label will be closed as well. However, the company around Equinox will still be active and our website and shop will still be run. Additionally, we will try to keep you updated as much as we can about news from our former artists and more. We recommend following us on Facebook and/or subscribing the newsletter.

„O ein Gott ist der Mensch, wenn er träumt, ein Bettler, wenn er nachdenkt, und wenn die Begeisterung hin ist, stehe er da, wie ein mißratener Sohn, den der Vater auf dem Hause stieß, und betrachte die ärmlichen Pfennige, die ihm das Mitleid auf den Weg gab.“ Hölderlin, Hyperion

Liebe Fans, Künstler, Freunde,

heute ist es an der Zeit, die Schließung von Equinox Records bekanntzugeben. Das „Counter Future – A Sound Exposure Vol. 3” Album, unsere 50ste Vinylveröffentlichung, stellt somit das letzte Release dar.

Damit fällt mir ein Stein vom Herzen. Denn dies ist kein spontaner Entschluss, sondern eine Entscheidung, die ich bereits Ende 2011 getroffen habe. Damals schien es unmöglich, denn das Label war mein Leben – heute hat es sich als konsequent und richtig für mich erwiesen, diesen Schritt zu gehen.

Gründe für die Schließung gibt es viele. In erster Linie haben sich für mich als Gründer, Vater und Macher des Labels neue Ziele für mein Leben entwickelt. Leider war es wichtig das Ende bis jetzt geheimzuhalten. Nur ein kleiner Kreis von Vertrauten und unsere Stammkünstler waren bereits vorab informiert, da sich auch für sie die Zukunft neu gestalten wird.

Für das Label habe ich vieles riskiert und auch auf sehr viel verzichtet. Aber Equinox Records war eben ein Herzensprojekt. Mit dem Label habe ich die letzten Jahre viel erlebt – es konnten viele meiner Träume verwirklicht werden. Anhand einzigartiger, individueller Künstler war es ein musikalisches Fest, ein großes Bild mit zahlreichen Nuancen, Stilen und Farben.

Auch noch die letzten Jahre schien alles für mich, trotz vieler epochaler und nicht unbedingt positiver Entwicklungen am Musikmarkt, ständig bergauf zu gehen. Ich war mir sicher, dass die Musik früher oder später auch eine etwas größere Hörerschaft erreichen würde. Dennoch ist der große Durchbruch des Labels nie gelungen und sicher hätte manch einer unserer Künstler mehr Aufmerksamkeit verdient gehabt.

Jedoch festigte sich in den letzten beiden Jahren bei mir die Einsicht, dass die wesentlichen Ziele bereits erreicht sind und man diese nicht unbedingt an Plays und Hits messen muss. Eine eigene kleine Welt wurde durch Equinox geschaffen. Und da ich selber viel in den künstlerischen Prozess eingebunden war, so ist der reichhaltige Katalog ein Nachlass, auf den ich persönlich auch sehr stolz bin.

Ein wenig traurig stimmt mich aber noch heute, dass Equinox doch irgendwie immer eine Art Außenseiter war: Die Musik galt mal als irgendwo „dazwischen“, mal als zu experimentell oder zu anders. Teilweise stand dem Label großes Unverständnis und Kopfschütteln gegenüber, insbesondere bei Presse und Vertrieben – durchaus aber ein Schicksal, mit dem andere Labels genauso zu kämpfen haben.

Durch die aktuellen marktwirtschaftlichen Voraussetzten im Musikgeschäft entstand aber auch ein weiteres essentielles Problem für mich. Selbst wenn Musik im elektronischen Bereich technisch betrachtet fast kostenlos produziert werden kann, so braucht es neben der Finanzierung der Tonträger Geld für Marketing und viele andere Dinge. Die umfangreiche Labelarbeit musste daher eben mit den beschränkten Mitteln gemacht werden, die gerade zur Verfügung standen – und war deshalb auch viel DIY und dementsprechend anstrengend. Schließlich musste ich mir die Frage stellen, ob ich noch mal 10 Jahre Labelarbeit machen will und musste diese klar mit „nein“ beantworten.

Mit dem abschließenden „Counter Future“ Projekt wollte ich noch mal aufzeigen, was Equinox ist. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Zusammenstellung und froh, dass fast alle Künstler, die das Label über die Jahre begleiteten, darauf vertreten sind. „Counter Future“ vollendet das Bild, von dem ich anfangs sprach. Für mich schließt das Album einen Kreis, zurück bis zur ersten Veröffentlichung.

Ich schreibe dies alles mit einer Träne in meinem Auge, denn eine wichtige Zeit in meinem Leben geht zu Ende und ich bin denen zu Dank verpflichtet, die mich auf diesem Weg begleitet haben: allen Künstlern, Helfern, meiner Familie, Freunden und Fans.

Insbesondere möchte ich an dieser Stelle Dimitris Kountouris danken, der als zweiter Labelmanager und talentierter Engineer den Endspurt des Jahres 2012, in dem wir über 15 Veröffentlichungen hatten, erst möglich gemacht hat und der mir durch seine positive, leidenschaftliche Hilfe zum Label tatkräftige Unterstützung gab.

Danke,
Günter

P.S.:
Für 24 Stunden gibt es heute (fast) alle unsere Veröffentlichung als kostenlosen Download über Bandcamp zu beziehen. Zudem haben wir sehr viele Artikel in unserem Shop reduziert. Diese können direkt über Bandcamp geordert werden, besser sind jedoch Direktbestellungen über den Equinox Online Store.

Auf unserem Sublabel Equinox.Digital wird Ende September noch die „Freedom Is Remixed“ EP von Godblesscomputers veröffentlicht, danach wird dieses Label ebenfalls eingestellt. Die Firma um Equinox wird aber weiterhin aktiv sein, die Website und der Equinox Online Shop werden weiterlaufen. Auch werden wir weiter versuchen euch über Neuigkeiten zu unseren Artists zu informieren. Folgt uns diesbezüglich über Facebook oder abonniert den Newsletter.

Greetings and welcome to Random News #10.

We’ve “missed” a couple of issues due to a great overload of work, and yet, some things that should be included on this issue may have passed our notice, but this is only natural since we are currently working on the “Counter Future” project which is our biggest so far and consists of 2 12inch EPs, a 3LP full length album, a flexi disc release as well as some other stuff.

DJ Scientist Announces Solid Steel Mix

Jan 23, 2013

Equinox 2012 Highlights & 50th Release Update

2012 has probably been our busiest and most succcessful year in our label history. We have added some great albums, EPs and singles to our catalogue and we want to thank all fans for the support. Especially those that are still buying vinyl releases, which is still our main focus.

2012 started with DJ Scientist’s very limited “The Artless Cuckoo EP” (eqx-034) as well as 2econd Class Citizen’s “Perception / Identity” postcard set (eqx-035). Following the official video of Deckard’s “Günesim” we also released the second part of the Black On Black Vinyl Series, a limited 7inch of the song with new remixes by Anthony Drawn and Deckard himself (eqx-036).
More info about these releases here: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/

Then, in April, we were heading straight forward with our biggest project this year: the release of 2econd Class Citizen’s long awaited second full length: “The Small Minority” (eqx-038). The album was first introduced by a really cool single entitled “Outside Your Doorway EP” (eqx-037) that featured remixes by Dday One and Buddy Peace and had a lot more exclusive music on it. The album then followed in late may – a masterful project with astonishing music and great artwork.
More info: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx038/

Another highlight followed with Andreikelos’ debut EP on Equinox, the third part of the Black On Black Vinyl Series, “Euryphaessa” (eqx-039). Although being a very limited underground project the reactions to this release were quite overwhelming – a really outstanding piece of electronic music.
More info: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx039/

Staying busy throughout the summer months, Misanthrop & Aqua Luminus III. delivered heat with the follow up to their Audiac release “Leinwand” in form of the “6 Years Later EP” (eqx-040). The 10inch single featured 6 beat-heavy songs, including a phenomenal rap track with Ceschi, 2Mex and James P Honey.
More info: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx040/

In October we also announced a remix contest for that Hip-Hop track, which resulted in massive double digital release which was given away for free as a new years present and is still available right here in two separate parts:
http://equinoxdigital.bandcamp.com/album/20-stories-later-a-remix-overdose-part-i
http://equinoxdigital.bandcamp.com/album/20-stories-later-a-remix-overdose-part-ii

Another album followed in September by Deckard. “Echoes From The Past” (eqx-041) contained unreleased material that was produced during the years 2000 to 2005. The 9 track release became part one of the “Unheard & Uncovered” project whereas the first 50 copies of the vinyl album additionally came with another bonus album by Deckard with some of this earliest works. The deluxe package was exclusively available through the Equinox Online Store. Some of the last copies can still be bought here:
http://www.e-q-x.net/shop/equinox-records/deckard-echoes-from-the-past-lp-cd/

Then we were heading towards “For Better, For Worse” (eqx-042) by label owner DJ Scientist, the second biggest project on our label in 2012. The digital advance single of the classic tune “Raincoatman”, which came along with a great new remix by Andreikelos was well received and so was the album. Almost being sold out just 3 months later, Scientist’s masterpiece, that was original scheduled to be released in 2006, finally had its well deserved late release. The first copies of the album came with a super limited 7inch single (eqx-043) which featured an unreleased track by Julius The Bearded Saviour (aka Ceschi), produced by The Raincoatman (aka DJ Scientist).
More info: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx042/

Another release that deserved more attention was J. Baracuz’ “A Contemporary Witness EP” (reissued as eqx-044) which was originally released in late 2011 on Equinox.Digital. Therefore, we decided to release it as a nice vinyl re-issue as the forth and final part of the Black On Black Vinyl Series with brand new remixes by Skyence and Damscray. The remix release can still be downloaded for free:

Here is more info about the limited vinyl release: http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx044/

Finally, the year ended with two very nice EPs by the Finest Ego Beat Championship winner Playpad Circus (eqx-045) and our newest signing Godblesscomputers (eqx-046). More info about these cool and more futuric projects can be found here:
http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx045/
http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx046/

So what’s to come in 2013?

First of all we want to put all our focus on our 10 Year Anniversary / 50th Release project that will be a big compilation project, the third part of our Sound Exposure series, which will soon be announced officially. We promise that this album will be super exciting and will be a must have release. Although this was announced earlier as 4xLP with 50 tracks, we have now put together a more compressed and absolutely delicate assemblage of 21 outstanding songs by the likes of Godblesscomputers, Andreikelos, 2econd Class Citizen, Skyence, Fulgeance, Kopfklang, Dday One, Glen Porter, Gone Beyond, Witch’s Teat & Haunted Days, David Vangel, 813, Misanthrop, Anthony Drawn, and more…
The compilation will come along with some ultra limited special advance releases such as a one (or maybe two) one sided, etched 12inches and 1 or 2 more exciting vinyl goodies that you don’t want to miss. Definitely stay tuned via our social media pages and our homepage.

A release party as well as a tour is in the works, too. And of course, there will be new exciting music from our artists in 2013. For example, rumour has it that there will be a new album by Ceschi and The Raincoatman (aka DJ Scientist)…

As far as our 10 Year Anniversary, which were are celebrating since december last year, you should also check some of the pictures that we have released via our Facebook page. You can see some never released photo material about artwork concepts, early events and designs.
Most pictures can be checked here:

Random News #8 (Oct-Nov 2012)

Greetings to all “Random News” readers! Creativity is bursting lately and we have been so busy we even had to skip the last issue… but we are back on track now with a rather long 2-month list of “random” news to make up!

Here we go…

——————————————————————————-

First, we’d like to start with DJ Scientist who has been getting quite a lot of attention lately, due to the release of his debut album “For Better, For Worse” as well as his single “Raincoatman”.

Right bellow, we made a selection of reviews, quotes and statements by the press and fellow artists around the globe, but, before we do this, be sure to check
DJ Scientist’s extensive 3-page interview on Star Wax Magazine France
which you can download for free here:
http://dl.free.fr/getfile.pl?file=/1oBVx2TB

And here’s the selection of quotes and reviews (linked):

——————————————————————————-

“For Better, For Worse” Reviews

De–Bug Magazine (Germany) (“The most dense album this month in terms of atmosphere.”)
Extensive album review at Local Heroes Radio (Germany)
Review and Album Of The Month at trip hop net

More reviews from:

Dmute Mag
Backspin Magazine
Downtempo.net (with an astonishing 5 out of 5!)
Clashmagazine UK (Quote: “an instrumental LP of a stately, imperial vibe”)

…and some quotes

HHV-Mag Germany:
„Eine große Verbeugung vor dem Hip Hop.“

La Mixletter France:
“Take the opportunity to discover, or rediscover, this multi-talented artist”

“Raincoatman” Reviews & Quotes”…

Triphop.net (4 of 5)
Dougegen.de (States it’s a: “Must have!”)
Der Digitale Flaneur
Progolog.de
Brayaz.de
Drugoy Hip-Hop
Beattapeco-Op Blog
Support Your Local Ghetto
Crayonbeats.com

——————————————————————————-

Last but not least, read what’s been said by some inspirational fellow artists…

DJ Food (Ninja Tune): “(I’ve) been giving it a good few listens here and favourites are ‘The Death of Hip-Hop’, ‘Raincoatman’ and ‘Anything About Nothing’. Nice work – there’s plenty of layers to unravel.”

Buddy Peace (Strange Famous): “Equinox has managed once again to rearrange and manipulate what we know as instrumental hip hop and drag it into line while marching it directly into the sunlight. DJ Scientist has created an album that amplifies moods, finesses instrumentation and somehow achieves subtlety while being utterly banging. A rare treat for the forward thinking beat-head.”

DJ Format: “Great moody soundscapes and raw heavy drums are the perfect formula from this Scientist!”

Sneaky (Fingathing): “One for the Headphones! Refreshing to hear such an organic flow in the current digital fever.”

Dday One (Content Label / Project: Mooncircle): “In this age of mass communication it’s definitely “for Better” DJ Scientist is releasing this project to the world. It would only be “For Worse” if this timeless collection remanded hidden.”

——————————————————————————-

Finally, as you may know, „For Better, For Worse“ is part 2 (out of 2) of the Unheard and Recovered Series which means that the series is now complete. If you missed part 1, then you’ve missed a great release by our artist, Deckard, entitled “Echoes From The Past”.

You can read more about this release here:
http://www.e-q-x.net/releases/eqx041
and you can buy the vinyl release directly from our online store:

or HHV.de:

——————————————————————————-

Next up, we have a nice review for the 6 Years Later EP by Misanthrop & Aqua Luminus III. as it was published on DEAD magazine:
http://www.deadmagazine.de/2012/10/04/misanthrop-aqua-luminus-iii-6-years-later-ep/

Nice review on Backspin Media about “The Small Minority” by 2econd Class Citizen. Late some may say, but you guys know what they say, right?
Here’s the link: http://backspin-media.de/archive/24252

Staying with 2econd Class Citizen, here’s something you should definitely spend an hour listening to, with your screen (and eyes) shut, and your ears wide open… Solid Steel / Platinum Set:

Just sit back and enjoy! …

Make sure you don’t miss this absolutely great guest mix by David Vangel, entitled “Count Numberella” on Rhythm Incursions. A brilliant selection of tracks that are all somehow related to numbers.
Here’s the link for this jewel:
http://www.rhythm-incursions.com/2012/10/08/david-vangel-count-numberella/

Staying with Rhythm Incursions, be sure you also check out DDay One’s 16^th episode of the “In Session” series for Rhythm Incursions which features DJ Scientist’s World Of Stone:

http://www.mixcloud.com/EXPLIZIT/egotrippinradioshow-kw-47-2012-feat-dj-explizit/
http://www.mixcloud.com/EXPLIZIT/egotrippinradioshow-kw-43-2012-feat-dj-explizit/

——————————————————————————-

As we continue to torture you with this Marathon-like issue, we meet up with Kraddy’s head-banging “Android Porn” video once more, as it’s nominated for another festival! Read more about this, here:
http://www.shift.jp.org/en/archives/2012/11/dotmov_2012.html

Finally (Is there someone partying behind a screen right now?) … As we began this issue with an interview, we’d also like to close it with another one, this time by our artist Andreikelos who has provided an extensive interview in Greek language (but hey, worth going to http://translate.google.de for a translation) on Viberated.com
http://www.viberated.com/arthra/synenteukseis/item/1184-synenteyksi-andreikelos

——————————————————————————-

Ok, that’s all for this month’s “Random News”.
