…broad casting - jazzanova & dirk rumpff

3.5.2007 von mk.

The release of the …broad casting compilation (SK092CD) in summer 2006 was the logical (and over due) conclusion of JAZZANOVA’s year long radio work. Their “JAZZANOVA Radio Show” enjoys cult status with its listeners and the playlists are torn from their hands. When is came to the question of who should do the second issue of …broad casting they immediately turned to DJ, radio presenter and producer DIRK RUMPFF; he is after all a “extended family member” (ALEX BARCK’s own words) of the JAZZANOVA family.
With his OFFtrack-Projekt DIRK RUMPFF has found the perfect vehicle for his sincere devotion to music: his goal is about beating a path through the unthinkably big jungle that is contemporary music, to seek out the pearls that really mean something, and at the same time creating a platform for his extensive network of music and friends. A place in the virtual space where bridges are built and a multiplicity of musical currents can come into contact with one another. Its a place where that which has long since ceased to take place in conventional radio can happen: dramaturgy, adventure and surprising changes.
All this can be found in a condensed form on the new …broad casting compilation which takes in a spectrum of sound ranging from everything from Broken Beat via soulful downbeat to hip hop. And one of the most important red threads that runs throughout this selection is folk orientated song writing. No wonder as for DIRK RUMPFF it’s all about a certain kind of timelessness, he’s interested in already seasoned tracks which although they have been around for a while already have by no means yet reached their half life.
In his compilation which is as flowing as it is exciting can be hard contributions by TRICKSKI, OUTLINES, MARK PRITCHARD, CLARA HILL, FAT FREDDYS DROP, DEYAMPERT and many more.
