Connaisseur Recordings is popping the corks, with good reason. The Offenbach based label is turning five. To celebrate its birthday Connaisseur Recordings releases „CINQ - A Connaisseur Retrospective. Remixed.“, a Compilation full of exclusive and tastefully selected remixes, showcasing the label's unique and versatile approach to electronic music.
„CINQ“ features reworks of successful and special tracks in the label's history. Remix treatment comes from Connaisseur's distinctive roster of artists: Amongst the felicitators are Patrick Chardronnet, Estroe, Wareika, Daso, Afrilounge and Federleicht. “CINQ” is being released on 3x12" vinyl and a special 12” vinyl features three more exclusive tracks from Connaisseur’s back catalogue. Including the full digital bundle, Connaisseur will release an exclusive selection of remixes digitally only on top of that.
Over the course of the last five years Connaisseur Recordings has always been a stronghold for fresh talents and exciting new music. “CINQ” is keeping on course, offering upcoming producers a platform to show their skills. With Distortion from Chicago, Portuguese producer Eduardo Tavares alias Himan, the super hot act Of Norway from Oslo and the splendid colaboration of James Kumo and Roberto Bosco aka Ku.Bo, Label-head Alex Flitsch is proud to welcome four new and at the same time promising faces to the ever growing Connaisseur family.
Throughout 2011 Connaisseur will be on the road celebrating its five birthday. The kick off for the birthday tour was at Frankfurt’s Cocoon Club with Timo Maas, Kollektiv Turmstrasse and Alex Flitsch constituting the line-up. With such a go the next five years of Connaisseur’s history will pass within the twinkle of an eye and lots of exciting music on the way.
