Compost 100 [Audio CD] Various Artists

Eight years after its launch and the Munich based future jazz dealership marks its centennial release with a double CD package Compost 100. Compiling the finest moments from such an acclaimed back catalogue was never going to be an easy task, so label manager Michael Reinboth flips the script with 20 exclusives from the label's illuminati. While Zero Db ruffle the feathers of Truby Trio's "Galicia," the first disc sees funk action from Kyoto Jazz Massive and the ultra-chilled keys of Les Gammas and the more up-tempo beats of the Salvador Group. Tune into the second CD for the broken beats of Twice, the clicks and crackles of Stefan Betke's Pole and the Detroitian bleeps of Reinboth's own Beanfield project If this wasn't enough, the Amalgamation of Sounds throw in some crazed orchestration and DJ Force turns in a heavyweight hip-hop instrumental. This is two hours of brand new tracks and remixes from some of the hottest producers in the world. --Kingsley Marshall
