Cocoon Recordings is proud to present the fourth edition of their in-house compilation series, Dots & Pearls. The bandwidth of artists in the label roster, such as Roman Flügel, Minilogue, Guy Gerber, Âme, or even Boys Noize, just to name a few, proves that Sven Väth and his label managers have always combined a wide range of techno and house subgenres throughout the years. Electronic music for kinds of listening and body-movement purposes. Dots & Pearls 4 is no exception to this. It is indeed another perfect mix-compilation that exactly refers to this very own style and label policy. Markus Fix, the man in charge here, compiles and mixes the back-catalog (with four brand new tracks), painting more of a tech-house colored picture, following his favorite genre. However, by selecting tracks and remixes from artists like Sven Väth and Roman Flügel, Mirko Loko, Tim Green, Einzelkind and Robin Schulz, and even Ricardo Tobar and Lawrence, Fix simply shows how big the choice was he could pick his tools for this compilation. Markus Fix himself has contributed a previously unreleased track to the mix alongside his colleagues Argy, Christian Burkhardt, and Jimi Jules. The four brand new additions follow the basic concept and label philosophy with their great diversity and unequal styles. Fix and company add acid house, '80s flavored retro sounds and compositions with a deep and hypnotic cinematic vibe. Dots & Pearls 4 does not only represent the musical output of the recent Cocoon Recordings releases. This compilation proves that it is still possible to publish modern electronic dance music with a vibrant touch, but from different corners of the game without the need to sell-out or even turn mainstream. Labels like Cocoon Recordings, and compilations like this one, are sorely needed these days to keep the spirit alive and to feed all the hungry heads that just won't catch up with current lifestyle trends and hypes. By staying true to the sound the label has fallen in love, they stay underground and fresh. Innovation still happens on the dancefloors around the globe, however, Cocoon Recordings focus on all the special dancefloors, the ones with love, passion, and energy: The floors where you can see and connect the dots and where you can find the pearls. Also features: OFF, Wouter De Moor, Rhythm Factory, Chymera, and Kölsch.
