Marco Resmann mixes the tenth edition of the Watergate compilation. A mere 9 years old, Watergate has steadfastly become one of the world's most prominent electronic music institutions. This is due in no small part to its heady combination of picturesque location -- its dancefloors face directly out onto the river Spree -- a wall-to-wall LED light installation and its impeccable music policy, with the cream of the electronic crop passing through its doors every week. The mix CD series, now in its tenth incarnation, is a further means for the club to stamp its seal onto the scene, with many of the club's residents and regular talents having been invited to contribute. Previous artists have included the likes of Tiefschwarz, Ellen Allien, Sascha Funke and dOP, amongst others. This time, long-time resident and Upon.You label boss Marco Resmann takes up the mantle and demonstrates how his unique tastes influence the Watergate sound with over 22 tracks of masterfully mixed house burners. Bookending the mix are some small audio snippets devised by him, but the meat is supplied by classics like Ricardo Villalobos' "808 The Bass Queen" and Soulphiction's "I've Got A Feeling," his own exclusive collaborations with Kiki and Mike Shannon plus more by Guillaume & The Coutu Dumonts, Anonym and other friends of Marco Resmann and the extended Watergate family. Other artists include: SoulPhiction, Minilogue, Douglas Greed, Heartz 4, Serafin, Digitaline, Tigerlily, Håkan Lidbo, Sierra Sam, Abel, André Lodemann, Left, Darabi, Roman Flügel, Jichael Mackson, Roland Clark, Luna City Express, Samu.l, Elon, Kollektiv Turmstrasse, Kenny Larkin, Death On The Balcony, Robert James, Alessio Mereu, Pär Grindvik, App, Soucie Six, Afrilounge, Mz Sunday Luv, Phil Weeks, Deetron and Roberto Rodriguez.
