About

Digitalism has lovingly created a mix for !K7's legendary DJ-Kicks series. For these two young Germans, Jens Moelle and Ismail Tüfekçi, joining the ranks of contributors to the series was nothing short of a dream come true.

Twelve years ago, the duo met as two record store workers in Hamburg, admiringly selling the DJ-Kicks series to their customers, and appreciating the dexterity of the mixes and range of artists who assembled each mix. Their favourite contributions include Tiga's mix ("his mix was the essence of edgy and cold electro-techno."), the Playgroup mix ("more really playful stuff.)" and Erlend Oye's mix ("cause he sung over a lot of stuff and had some favorites like Jürgen Paape, the collaboration with Morgan Geist and Avenue D (2D2F) on it.").

Summer 2012 is Digitalism's time; a statement for which the mix they've created is as compelling an argument as any. Impetuous, full of attitude, and just a bit cocky, the sounds shift challengingly between electro rock and synth-pop, new wave and trance, techno and disco punk and pop glamour. The backbone of the mix is a healthy portion of new exclusive Digitalism material, fleshed out with choice tracks by Optimo, Alex Gopher, WhoMadeWho, Vitalic, The Rapture, and many more. - DJ-Kicks.com
