"DJing since the early part of the '90s, Mark Keith Currell decided to pursue his love for house music with some production work. Hysteric vocal loops meet sweet melodies and stomping beats, combined with some extra funk you have four timeless and beautiful house bites -- for your heart and hips."

"The first WMFREC* label compilation, containing vinyl tracks and previously unreleased material from both label and guest artists produced in the years 2000 to 2003, is a musical snapshot, which reminds you of favorite songs, introduces the present, and takes a look into the future. Moment presents a journey through a club music landscape with a diversified topography. WMFRecordia shows a wild and crispy mixture of bad ass ragga tronix, experimental elektronika, melodic broken beats, reduced techno, funk-con-fusion, minimal house, clubrockgalore and straight forward. Moment gathers and surprises, because of the harmonious together of the different styles. Or for the very reason just not. After all, every single artist feels comfortable on WMF Records, whether they are from Sweden, Canada, Poland, England, or just Berlin. For the joy of vinyl enthusiasts who love extraordinary mixtures the CD will be completed by a maxi with previously unreleased material, also to carry Moment back to the turntables." Artists: Elektro Music Department, Mitte Karaoke, Bucci, sweet.n.candy, Jacek Sienkiewicz, Khan, Jeremy P. Caulfield, Håkan Lidbo, Offpop, Perch, Rawell, Nikakoi, Jahcoozi.

"Transformer Di Roboter is just one experimental music project Johannes Malfatti and Alex Kloster from Berlin are working on. They are named after the Italian version of a popular 80's toy -- and that's what Transformer is mainly about : Already existing hits are altered, modulated, turned upside down and put into a complete new sound shape. Wired though catchy tracks, hits themselves, are born that intend to show what this hit thing is really about and what is possible with a (grim) sense of humor. For those who know..."

"Kotai, better known as member of the legendary Elektro Music Department, decided to release his album, where the EP 'Sucker DJ' is taken from, on WMF Rec because of the clubby concept it´s based on but as well because of comparable label histories and a personal affinity to WMF. The label Elektro Music Department evolved from the cult club Elektro in Berlin and is run by former club owners and now 'just' artists, namely very well-known DJ Mo, video artist Daniel Pflumm, internationally famous for his logo art and responsible for both the visual appearance of EMD and WMFrec -- and musician and artist Klaus Kotai. Every track of the 9 exclusive pieces on this release has a special meaning for the whole curriculum. And the whole is indeed something with a strange, intense character: knitted by small intervals of pure background noises a quilt of straight sounds and deep vocals is enfolded that densifies to certain song structures and concrete tracks. It's art but it´s physical. It's dance but it's philosophical. It's abstract but colorful. It's dark, dense, dirty and pure joy. The higher art of techno so to speak -- and to any club customer's satisfaction."

"The role model for the series komfort.labor on WMF records is the event called Komfort Labor, which is taking place on Saturdays in the WMF Club, Berlin. Under the diction of komfort.labor a comfortable bar evolves from the pleasant room of the DJ lounge, music itself evolves from a relaxing fringe event to a central concert-like happening. Different Berlinian formations are forming the komfort.labor as residents inviting guest DJs and live performing artists along their musical preferences. These are: the label Scape, the radio show Ocean Club, the magazine for electronic living aspects DE:BUG, the computer generated studio production crew of Native Instruments, and the electronic experiment Solitaire Touring. The compilation series komfort.labor is based on the different musical contents that are presented by komfort.labor´s residents. Those who don´t know what Ocean Club is should visit their web site or listen to their radio shows online to get an impression. Ocean club is special -- that´s what the compiled tracks show as well. Compilers Gudrun Gut and Thomas Fehlmann do feature own heroes as well as good friends, rock´n`roll as well as elektronika, fun as well as grooviness. That´s what Ocean Club's like: they don´t care about genre conformity. Ocean Club is not only a bunch of musicians from different backgrounds playing in one common project but a broadcast on Radio One, Berlin, dedicated to electronic experiments and musica obscura. Ocean Club Radio are Gudrun Gut (Einstürzende Neubauten / Malaria! / Miasma / Monika Enterprise) and Thomas Fehlmann (The Orb / Palais Schaumburg / Flow) who are virtuously playing and expressing themselves with lots of different styles -- as musicians, DJs and label managers. Gudrun Gut is currently very successful with the remixes of her Malaria! Hit 'Kaltes Klares Wasser'. Ocean Club also is last but not least a club event at WMF's [komfort.labor]. You can join the club now all over the world by this crispy and very special 'soundselection'."

"Audio Video Disco is a compilation series on WMF records, meant to describe a possible night, spent in the WMF club: house is in the house -- and on disc. The prelude to this series is naturally hosted, mixed and compiled by the inventors, founders and residents of the club night which bears the same name. Starting the CD with an intro, that invites the party crowd to the WMF club, Dixon (member of the Sonar Kollektiv) and Mitja Prinz (see also V.A. Globus Mix Vol.1 - Mitja Prinz Audio-Video-Disco-Atmosphere on Tresor) smoothly begin their tour de floor. 13 favorites were picked and carefully chosen with affection to picture a typical Dixon - Mitja - WMF party. The warm smart grooves of Dixon prepare the dancefloor for Mitja´s smashers, which are taking a faster step. The pocket sound may sound rounded off comparatively early -- but the sound resounds and reminisces -- to make appetite on more: enjoy!" Artists include: Attica Blues , Unforscene, Ski Oakenfull, Recloose, Metro Area 2, Borned & Sporenburg, Derrick Carter, Annie, Freaks Presents Turning Orange, DJ HMC, Barada, M1, Lynden David Hall.

"The Elektro Music Department in itself is already exceptionally extraordinary. The trio of Mo, Kotai and Daniel Pflumm is legendary in Berlin's art, music and club scene due to their bar/club projects: elektro, panasonic and init and their musical and visual arts concepts. Their label, which is also called Elektro Music Department, can be seen as a reflection of the synergy of art and music, which has been the driving force in the development of those projects especially the elektro and the panasonic. The records released are supplemented with videos and artwork by Daniel Pflumm, which is relying on 'art -' quotes of logos and slogans, emphasizing, playfully ironic, the logo mania and corporate identity of 'the big business'. The musical output of EMD is dominated by Mo and Kotai. It is about techno. minimal, deep and atmospheric are often added attributes that fit -- but do not hit the point. EMD´s music is dancefloor music, without techno clichés, it is minimal in a way of purity and clarity, deep -- in the meaning of a strong baseline and atmospheric -- if this means to create a certain spatial feeling. EMD sound clever and cool with a rock approach. But all those attributes do not exclude their opposites. EMD inside and out comes something romantic?"

"WMF club Berlin (alive and kicking it since 1991) is synonymous with club culture, not only in Berlin but nationwide. Their first CD release (compiled by WMF resident DJ Highfish) was created as an acoustic reference to the exiting Saturday nights, named Saturday 'night-effects' at WMFNO4johannishof and, also as a conceptual 'outlook'. Compilation 001 is the first in a series of WMF compilations that will document club events and musical projects. Taken from a pool of artists and friends at the club, which were all hosting (and still will be) the Saturday nights at WMF as a family affair. Therefore this record is not an ordinary compilation -- nearly all the tracks have been produced exclusively for it. And yet it reflects just about any Saturday night at the WMF, like a guide through the music featured here. In spite of differences in style and tempo, the result is a homogenic acoustic experience. So come in, tune in, and open your ears to the electronic song." Artists include Chicks on Speed, Zombie Nation, Ben E. Clock, Rawell, Mitte Karaoke, Elektro Music Department, Anontelli Electr, Steve Bug, Alter Ego, Patrick Pulsinger, Thomas Fehlmann, Farben, and Pole.
