Kruder & Dorfmeister Session (Vinyl): Kruder, Dorfmeister: Amazon.ca: Music

Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

By the late 1990s Vienna production duo Richard Dorfmeister and Peter Kruder had firmly established themselves as remixers par excellence, selecting key elements of other people's compositions and rebuilding them in their unique framework, which saw a collusion of Latin, dub and bossa. This outing on K7 collates their finest works in a double CD set, and though compiled in the spirit of DJ Kicks retains much of each track with the mixing itself barely noticeable as the material segues gently from outtro to intro. All of their best work is here, from the opening strains of Kruder's take on Roni Size's "Heroes" right through to the closing washes of "Million Town," highlights taking the form of a breathtaking, space aged dub of Depeche Mode's "Useless" and "Trans Fatty Acid" from Lamb, which weaves Louise Rhodes' angelic vocal into a sprawling, live groove. Fascinating late-night listening. --Kingsley Marshall

Album Description

Now available at a much lower price! The trip-hop production duo of Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister has gained more fame for its stellar remixes and DJ sets than as producers of its own work. By engineering, reworking and remixing tracks by a cast of artists including Depeche Mode, William Orbit, Bomb the Bass, Lamb, Roni Size, David Holmes, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and United Future Organization, the Austrian duo became one of the most respected names in the dance/electronica community. This 2 CD set is an essential title for any music library!

This review is from: K-D Sessions (Audio CD)

There are over 120 reviews of this album so I won't say much that hasn't allready been said but this one is really good. I keep hoping that K&D will come out with another "sessions" LP and I think the reason they haven't is because it will be near impossible to top this one. Five stars...

This review is from: K-D Sessions (Audio CD)

I have been an avid fan of electronic music for 6 years. I have known about Kruder and Dorfmeister for several years, but have just recently gotten into trip hop. I wanted to write this review because of Disk 2. Now don't get me wrong, Disk 1 is awesome, but I have been listening to Disk 2 every night when I go to sleep. Last night, I looked in my CD player, and the cd was gone. I honestly felt like I could not fall asleep without this cd in the background. Turns out, my roommate took it. I actually opened her door and contemplated taking it from her, but I decided to grab a Tosca cd instead, but it just wasn't the same. Buy this, it gets better each time you listen to it.

This review is from: K-D Sessions (Audio CD)

I just recently started getting into downtempo chill electronica or whatever it's called (there are so many sub-genres of electronic music it's insane). I read all the rave reviews of this album and decided to order it along with some other artists.

I wasn't dissapointed. This two CD set is awesome! I absolutely love it. The reviews were dead on. Go ahead and make the purchase.

Lovely electronic, layered, compelling, better on each listen. A good thing to have on while doing something brainy: writing checks, writing poems.
