Info

For Kölsch, Kompakt is the “perfect label” to call “home.” The highly revered Cologne-based label released Kölsch's seminal LP ‘1977’ in 2013, continuing a tradition of providing groundbreaking, genre-defining tracks. Kölsch's work proved to rewrite the rulebook of techno production, setting a melodic and emotion-driven course. Kölsch returns to Kompakt this year with his highly anticipated album ‘1983’, a true masterclass from one of techno's finest. Kölsch, Rune's main and personal project, is a means of narrating his life through soundscapes. Rune's critically acclaimed debut album, ‘1977’, filled with timeless tracks such as Loreley, Opa, Oma, and Goldfisch, represents the year of his birth and is inspired by his culturally diverse upbringing. Rune himself notes that “being half Irish, half German, and living in Denmark was a very messy period of my life.” Living in Christiania, an anarchic hippie commune in Copenhagen, while spending school summers in Germany with his grandparents, Rune recalls how ‘1977’ was the product of “remembering what shaped me as a child” and “the strange ideas and concepts I had in my mind at the time.” While Rune attributes the emotion of ‘1977’ to “solace” and “the imaginary world I spent my days in,” he describes ‘1983’ as a “travel album,” sonically tracking the first year he traveled around Europe at the age of six.
