"P. Diddy may have, ahem, 'invented the remix,' but now Berlin's Vakant label is turning the concept on its head -- using the remix to (re)-invent the label itself. Vakant R is the newest addition to the imprint's crowded house; alongside the parent label and audio-visual offshoot Vakant X, Vakant R rounds out the minimalist trinity with a stunning debut release featuring Mathias Kaden and Onur Özer going head-to-head in a no-holds-barred battle of the remixes."

"It's been a busy couple of years for Berlin's Vakant label. Kicking off in October 2004 with Alex Smoke's Simple Things EP, Vakant has gone to strength to strength, releasing a tightly curated set of records from new talents (Onur Özer, Tolga Fidan) and old hands (Robag Wruhme, Mathias Kaden) alike, as well as launching the remix sub-label Vakant R and the audiovisual division VX. Now, with pieces of vinyl safely under its belt, Vakant invites the turntable-impaired to join in the fun with the release of Momentum, the label's first CD. Not simply a compilation of hits, Momentum recreates the feel of Vakant's infamous parties at Berlin's Watergate club with a seamless mix of 14 of the label's most propulsive tracks, expertly blended by Mathias Kaden and Onur Özer."
