"Forever Jan" packs 25 (!) years into the most comprehensive compilation possible - and, despite all the stylistic diversity, makes the common thread of this extraordinary career recognizable in every respect. Jan Delay himself has become an icon of German pop: He has shaped how music sounds in this country, and he has inspired entire generations to listen to their raveheart and consistently do their thing.

But above all, he has always remained a fan. Anyone who has shared a dancefloor with Jan at five o'clock in the morning or discussed the latest Soundso record with him, indeed anyone who has experienced him on stage even once, knows what music means to him, how it drives him, how it defines his work. The beats, the bass, the whole boom, that's his element. And he has always transferred this passion very directly into his own projects. Anyone who hears "Forever Jan" knows that this fire will burn forever.

"Forever Jan" comes with 2 new tracks, classics, rarities and floor fillers.

Limited hardcover book in vinyl format incl. 2 new tracks: 5-fold vinyl (colored, 180g) and 2 CDs with glued-in 20-page booklet and signed DIN A5 photo

OG Keemo and Funkvater Frank make a mixtape. Head off, mic on. Plus the best guests you can imagine. No concept album, just rap and kill. Written and recorded as if in a fever. And that's the name of the tape. "Fieber" will be released on 15.09. and can be pre-ordered on vinyl now. If the temperature is higher than 38 degrees Celsius, it is called a fever. If it rises to between 39 and 41 degrees Celsius, the person concerned has a high fever. Extremely high fever is when a body temperature of over 41 degrees Celsius is measured and a mixtape is released.

Keemo Sabe. Funk father. Rap him his dads are back. It's that other fever now.

Das Album von Produzent Gavin Sense und Rapper Das Wort vereint klassisches Handwerk, mit Liebe zum Detail und einer Prise Humor. Du bekommst stilsichere Beats mit 50 Jahren Hip Hop im Schlepptau, zeitlose Texte, zwischen großem Ganzen und privaten Reflexionen, vereint zu einem bunten Monolith. Der Titel Rauer Samt ist zum Einen eine Hommage an den Klassiker Blauer Samt von Torch, zum Anderen ein Widerspruch in sich. Das richtige Album, zur ganz falschen Zeit.

The hits from Cro's Easy Mixtape are finally on record. Nine tracks on color vinyl. Limited to 4000 copies.

No tattoos - scars and breaks tell the story!

Torky and doZ9: No one who has even briefly dipped their toe into the warm, soupy pool of the German rap underground needs to be told what top level prevails here.

One of them is rightly affectionately called "The Coach" by the entire German-language stylistic Olympus in Amsterdam, while the other has been shaping the same from five homes for over a decade with his smug crypticism.

Nine" is the ninth release by the duo and follows in the footsteps of the past. Between binge drinking in Templin, breaking bones, friendships and family, to smoky couch sessions and trapeze capades in the hallowed halls of alleycatboy. Straightforward, unusually approachable and at times completely hilarious, the record delivers trippy hinterland blues for those who have stomped free of the pep-pulling ghosts of the past.

Let's sit back, watch the flies screwing and sing together the old song that no one likes to sing along to.

"Can't go no more, can't go no more, can't go no more".

"Neun" will be released on 08.12.2023 via Sichtexot Records on vinyl LP + bonus track "Durch uns durch" feat. Sonne Ra and Wandl

Check out the “Flying Crossfader EP” by Carl Hang - Our latest Deck 2 Deck Records imprint. 4 Tracks you will play on an endless loop due to the highly addictive nature of the finger-licking good club sounds & scratches Carl presents on this record. In the "Flying Crossfader EP," Carl Hang's production wizardry takes center stage. This release is a sway fusion of styles, blending garage, UK bass, and ghettotech music. He has expertly crafted a sonic landscape transcending inescapable genre boundaries, taking you through Berlin's backyard flavor-infused basslines while still sticking to the likes of old-school hood anthems

Fuffifufzich was born in 2018, with sunglasses on the face. Fuffifufzich wants to open up all hearts with Fuffifufzich's songs, which are about Ferrari, heartbreak, police, but above all about love and longing in the times of the big cities. Melancholic, spherical, dreamy synth sounds go hand in hand with Fuffifufzich's lyrics, which are rhymes full of heartbreak, then a joke so that the tears aren't just in pain.

With their fifth album WEB MAX II, WEB WEB continue the collaboration with Max Herre that began on WEB MAX (2021). With this new album, they have succeeded in doing much more than simply continuing a series. WEB MAX II is musically and emotionally probably the most diverse distillation of what the German jazz supergroup, originally rooted in spiritual jazz, has produced in the seven years of its existence.

"Subversiver Untergrund", Tis L's debut album, is the result of his
meticulous work in the last years, his masterpiece. It will be released on
September 1, 2023 in a package with the so far only digitally
digitally released "Seitenhieb EP" on the Hamburg independent label
Audiolith. "Subversive Underground" bundles Tis L's strengths and preferences,
weighs a ton and is light as a feather, is a cocktail of lyrical
hail of bells, unabashed soul striptease and unerring social
Social criticism on dirty-pressing beats. Tis lays the middle finger
in wounds - not in a super-teacherly way, but rather in a reflectively defiant way. With
irrepressible looseness, mischievous wink and finest cynicism à la "meine Beats".
cynicism à la "my beats are in demand like the German passport" he formulates
ambiguous-political punchline after ambiguous-political punchline - against the state power
against the state power, your 'QAnon-Aunt', the Springer-Press and,
and, of course, your crew. Virtually every line is an antithesis to the
of neoliberalism and sexism in the German hip hop landscape and the
HipHop landscape and the gaping systemic flaws in the grand scheme of things.
Politically motivated word violence in battlerap format: entertaining, snotty,
never agitational.
