What they say about Prepared's "Module" - album:

"Pulsierende Interaktion eines Trios, die sich unmittelbar auf den Hörer überträgt. Mit einem Motorik-groove, der das Stillsitzen beim Hören zu Hause oder bei einer Live-Performance von Prepared nahezu unmöglich macht."
Jazzthing

"Prepared’s compositions are minimalist and virtuosic, awakening primal dance impulses while guiding listeners through an immersive sonic experience."
Twisted Soul Music

"The trio Prepared unleashes their creative mindset, provoking and dazzling the listener with their album, Module."
EVL Magazine

"I LOOOOOVE THIS ALBUM!"
Laurent Garnier

"How everyone kept their place with all the timing/ metric shifts going on I'll never know, I suspect witchcraft! Mesmerising."
Hot Toddy / Crazy P

- COMPOST DEEP HOUSE SELECTION VOL. 2 -
https://compostrecords.lnk.to/Deep-House-Selection-2

After two decades and more than 500 releases, Compost Records started to bundle some of its finest tunes as Various Artists digital download compilation albums. The variety and full spectrum of Compost’s repertoire has never or rarely been presented in form of a musical genre compilation. These releases will be compiled or DJ-mixed by Compost’s artists and are available as digital downloads, except in some rare cases very very limited as 500 CDs.

The second edition of the Compost Deep House Selection series is slightly different compared to the well received first edition, which was released in the summer of 2023. Volume 2 contains high quality deep-house tunes with a lot of variety in it. Polyrhythmic structures and cinematic soundscapes are key parts of this selection and the continuous mix. It took quite some time to create the perfect continuous mix based on the selected tracks. It was a process of months to create the perfect flow.

The selection & mix contains a lot of summer vibes/energy and can be played during the whole year. Art-D-Fact and Rupert & Mennert selected world class tunes and remixes from well knows producers/acts like Louie Vega, Fred Everything, Atjazz, Lars Behrenroth, Laroye, Llorca, TJ Kong & Nuno Dos Santos and Roberto Rodriguez to name a few. This edition of the Compost Selection-series means another confirmation of the world class output of the Compost label catalogue.
