It's Boxer's birthday, and how else does a label celebrate 10 amazing years, than with a compilation? More a favorite mix tape than a Best-Of-Everything, this full-length compilation doesn't tell you much about the label's back catalog or sales figures, but keeps things surprisingly focused within its 11 tracks, although it sports a bewildering variety of styles with each artist thinking outside the box. Already the first track, a dreamy, draft-like experience from the mind of
Stephan Hinz
, leaves a lot to the imagination, thus installing the frame for things to come.
Kolombo
and
Von Spar
both prowl the same funky hunting grounds, but present divergent results. Grade A grooves await the listener with
Popnoname
,
tOMBo
(feat.
Schad Privat
) and
Paul Nazca
, who all find new perspectives on the sound you'd expect from them. Let's not forget the not-so-secret centerpiece of this album, its heart and soul,
Scalde
's inspired ballad "We Drive Away." This song replaces the usual rave climax with a perfectly balanced, humanist flow full of wisdom and romanticism, informing the follow-up track by
Le Dust Sucker
in the most drastic way. Whereas this powerful production duo has become known for their furor, they crank up the serenity with "Everybody Used To," delivering a perfectly-formed pop gem. The same can be said about
Robag Wruhme
and
Extrawelt
, whose production skills reach dizzying heights with their contributions, upgrading the floor with broken beats and epic harmonies. In the end it's mostly the unconditional love for details and the dramaturgical subtlety that gives
10 Years Of Boxer
its coherence, thus saying more about the quality of a label than a thousand Best-Of-All-You-Can-Hear derivatives this industry usually churns out in a matter of seconds.
