Meine Vorliebe für das New Yorker NuDisco-Italo-Electro Label Italians Do It Better habe ich hier im Blog sicher schon mal erwähnt. Leider verschiebt sich nun die Veröffentlichung der neuen Label-Compilation After Dark 2, da die Herrschaften wohl ordentlich zu tun haben. Um die Wartezeit zu verkürzen hat Label-Mastermind Johnny Jewel den Vorgänger neu gemastered, gemixt und zum freien Download ins Netz gestellt.
77 minutes of analog electronic music mutating through Italo Disco, Krautrock, Electro, Giallo Cinema, & Pop. By now, After Dark seems like it’s in its thousandth pressing…(we lost track a long time ago). And as we prepare for the release of After Dark 2, we wanted to share with you where it all began. The last 5 years seem like a beautiful blurry dream. Since the October 15th release date was announced back in July, everyone has grown increasingly anxious for the hard copy. At that time, we didn’t know Karl Lagerfeld was going to commission Chromatics to choreograph 27 minutes of music for the Chanel runway. We also couldn’t have known that Symmetry was going to be asked to score a top-secret motion picture for 2013. There is so much music we can’t wait for you to hear. For the diehard fans, we’re going to start leaking tracks next week. After slowly chiseling away at it since the spring of 2008, After Dark 2 is finally right around the corner. Thanks to everyone for being so enthusiastic & patient.
