Township Rebellion - Next Life [Stil vor Talent]

Das deutsche Produzentenkollektiv Township Rebellion (Marlon Mürle, Arthur Wagner) veröffentlicht mit „Aviation“ eine EP mit drei Tracks, die von Streichern dominiert werden und tiefgründige Tech-House-Klänge bieten. „Next Life“ ist ein dynamisches Stück mit wechselnden Rhythmen, das den 1992 erschienenen Klassiker „So Get Up“ von Ithaka Darin Pappas verwendet. Der beschwingte und zugleich düstere Stil erzeugt eine Ahnung von drohendem Unheil und verstärkt so die Tanzbarkeit des Tracks. German producer collective Township Rebellion (Marlon Mürle, Arthur Wagner) sign a string-heavy three tracker of deeply blissful tech house collectively titled Aviation. Next Life consists of a back and forth dynamic piece, making use of the 1992 classic spoken word vocal-poem “So Get Up” by Ithaka Darin Pappas. Its upbeat and looming style adds a sense of impending doom, amping the track’s dance appeal.

The Eternal "SO GET UP" Gains Yet Another Life - Cosmic Gate featuring Ithaka

Through ‘Wake Your Mind’s title, Nic & Bossi had communicated a belief in border-free electronic music to fans. Its message was embraced by untold thousands of clubbers and music lovers around the world, subsequently turning into a groundswell movement. The #WYM tag was widely adopted as the abbreviation-of-choice for those wishing to display a more flexible/less tribal outlook to electronic music.

Throughout late 2013 and early 2014, Cosmic Gate added other significant dimensions to Wake Your Mind, further spurring the #WYM effect. Following rave receptions to a string of sold out Wake Your Mind In Concert gigs they launched WYM Records. Attached to the Armada Label group, it was conceived as a home for freethinking, no-borders music, which was immediately underlined this by its first release. Winning widespread praise from the press, ‘So Get Up’ - featuring the 1993 original lyrics and vocals by Californian rapper-poet, Ithaka - was seen by both fans and the media alike as an (aptly) bold ‘new-avenues’ musical exploration by Cosmic Gate.
