This is part two of the Datapunk label's We Are Punks CD compilation series. Given wings by the outstanding success of the first edition of the anthology as well as the Various Punks Volume A double EP, Anthony Rother and Matthias Gustke aka Ziel 100 once again select the best melodies from the successful label. With over 150 minutes playing time on two completely mixed CDs, the second chapter of We Are Punks is an intensive bridging of the past and future of a label which has defined the sound of modern clubs through a fertilization of techno and electro into a new hybrid. In addition to the compiled Datapunk club hits of the last few months (Anthony Rother's "Moderntronic 3" and "So Good," Billy Nasty's "Iconic Warfare" and/or "Electro Maloquerio," Umek's "Vandal Derivate" or Kiko's "30.1"), many of which appear on CD format for the first time, there are seven exclusive tracks which until now have not been released, which will appear on two vinyl full-lengths at the same time and will anticipate the sound profile of the label for 2008. Particularly worth mentioning are the label debuts of Polish producer Robert M aka Elektro One and Daniel Wilhelm from Hamburg. Robert M's "Elektro Tape" is a prime example of a playful and aggressive version of electronic dance music, which shows an exciting way out of the uniformity of the minimal techno dogma, and the organ sounds of "Alster Dream" by Daniel Wilhelm remain constantly present in the balance of a night dancing away. In addition, Ziel 100 shines with a streamlined bass line feat, while Frank Kusserow provides a sensual balance with his melodramatic "Just A Little Traged" and the tradition of electro comes into its own with a return to the old by Miss Kittin & The Hacker. Finally, in year five of the still-young label history, there is one thing that Datapunk doesn't want under any circumstances: to sit back and mark time. Also includes Artist Unknown, Xenia Beliayeva, Gregor Tresher, Christopher Kah and Internal Sync.
