This distinct release on Innervisions sees Âme hook up with the global ambassadors of South African music, Amampondo. Across two versions of 'Ku Kanjani' Âme's hypnotic brand of techno meets Amampondo's characteristic Xhosa chants. Post-modern world music, impeccably executed.

A beautiful and subtle mix by Âme, who combine raw and soulful house flavours by the likes of Armando, STL, and Even Tuell with Moondog interludes, wildpitch magic, and even some Dettmann and F.U.S.E vs. LFO at the end. Sublime.

Âme have always put quality before quantity and their only single release this year, 'Rrose Sélavy'', was yet another testament to the duo's greatness. 'Junggesellenmaschine's electro-acoustic percussions were held together by a strong melodic back-bone for one of this year's finest dance-floor anthems.

Picked!

Âme's only release for Ostgut, but what a big one it is. 'Fiori's original mix crosses over synthetic krautrock and techno in a way only the duo from Karlsruhe can pull it of, while the track's 'Club Mix' is a spiralling 16-minute monster. Epic.
