Electronic / acoustic wonder band KUF deliver a special surprise for their third album: eleven sizzling hot takes on tracks drawn from the Macro label's stellar catalog, as originally crafted by some of today's most respected artists in electronic music. KiNK, Patrick Cowley, Peter Kruder (of K&D), Stefan Goldmann, rRoxymore and more get the treatment. With a nod to the label's previous highly original compilations and mixes from the Macrospective and Vinylism series, Re:Re:Re captures more new ground.

KUF's previous albums presented an astonishing inversion of the typical extended electronic set up, in that they paired a plethora of disembodied, sampled voices with acoustic real time interaction on bass, drums and keys. Re:Re:Re shifts the focus of sampling altogether to scanning entire tracks and compositions which are then reimagined with the band's singular approach. Neither just remixes, nor faithful reproductions, KUF engage in careful sound archaeology. From re-programming key sounds to holistic granular deconstructions, the originals's sound palettes are reproduced to serve as a springboard towards entirely new instalments. The resulting tracks range from intimate ballads to full power dance floor movers, spanning a highly engaging arc of sheer listening pleasure.


These are the tracks and their original composers:

1. An Ardent Heart – Stefan Goldmann
2. Arcade – Santiago Salazar
3. Furniture – Raudive
4. Soon – Patrick Cowley & Jorge Socarras
5. Feral – Raudive
6. Memory Fails Me – Patrick Cowley
7. Vodolaz – KiNK
8. Law Of Return – Peter Kruder
9. Stammophorm – Anno Stamm
10. Darksun – rRoxymore
11. Hollow Sound – Stefan Goldmann

about

KUF image

KUF Berlin, Germany

Three-piece outfit KUF, featuring keys, bass and drums, cooks up a sound that is as warm, cozy and exciting as it is utterly alien. The rhythm section hints at the great history of dirty funk and bouncing R&B, but the grooves are firmly today's: dance-centered, thrillingly interactive and broken up at the best possible joints. ... more
