{"product_id":"oui-mixe","title":"Oui Mixe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOui Bitte\u003c\/em\u003e is the eleventh studio album by \u003cstrong\u003eStation 17\u003c\/strong\u003e and was recorded in Forellenhof, Nordhastedt - North Germany. With tired eyes, the collective usually sat together into the early hours and listened to the takes that the day's work had produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe compelling rhythm, the supreme discipline of the band founded in 1989, has always been inherent in their work, and with the housy Hausmann a collective wish arose: here we need a remix! The desire then grew and spread over the entire album ...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemix albums have already become a tradition in the 30-year history of the collective: In 2001, the legendary label Mute Records released the album \u003cem\u003eMikroprofessor\u003c\/em\u003e with remixes by DJ Koze, Thomas Fehlmann, Justus Köhncke, and To Rococo Rot. In 2011, the Goldstein Variations Remixes followed, including versions by Erobique, Tobias Thomas, but also by Ada and Mense Reents, who we will meet again here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTimidly, the band began to ask their favorite producers, most of whom agreed without hesitation. Soon, a top-class remix album with a Who’s Who of the local electronic music landscape was ready and even if only the bases of the pieces are recognizable, a completely new listening experience has been created here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt's grown into an independent work through the versatility of the participants and their expertise and can be enjoyed detached from the original material. As if by magic, a simultaneously stringent and diverse vibe has emerged that makes \u003cem\u003eOui Mixe\u003c\/em\u003e more than just an addition to \u003cem\u003eOui Bitte\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe start with Berghain regular Efdemin, who takes on the instrumental song \"20.000 Meilen unter dem Mond.\" Efdemin, real name Phillip Sollmann, belonged to the core of Dial Records and now releases on Ostgut Ton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHausmann, the origin of the remix idea, in the hands of Paul Frick is transformed into a Hi-NRG house number. Paul Frick is not only one third of Brandt-Brauer-Frick, but currently also a member of the legendary Tangerine Dream - a favorite band in the house of Station 17.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePantha du Prince picks up the energy of the whole album rebuilding Pusch on a pressing bass drum. Pantha du Prince, who has released modern classics of electronic music with \u003cem\u003eThis Bliss\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eBlack Noise\u003c\/em\u003e, was in Thailand during the production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Andreas Dorau number \u003cem\u003eDer Monat\u003c\/em\u003e is handled here by Toto Belmont from Helsinki. His association with the Hardwax Spectrum is clearly audible, but Kimmo Saastamoinen, as he is actually known, has long since found his own sound: Subtly driving, always slightly melancholic and peppered with billowing delays that you want to immerse yourself in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe number of projects in which Mense Reents has already participated is enormous. Let's limit ourselves here to his electronic projects Egoexpress and Die Vögel - and of course Die Goldenen Zitronen, among whose incredibly accomplished musicianship he is a big part of. The song \u003cem\u003eBewegung\u003c\/em\u003e is given a subtle dancehall riddim and so many amazing details are flying around in the sound so that close-listening is recommended here without doubt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe biggest surprise is probably delivered by Ada: instead of moving the track \u003cem\u003eAufgehoben\u003c\/em\u003e, recorded again with Dorau, to the club, she simply wrote new music around the vocals, singing over them herself while picking up the trace elements of the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMichaela Dippel has ventured furthest away from the foundation and yet remains true to it: she picked up the melody that was lying there (according to the text) on the floor, sang it - and it sounded beautiful. Content and form combine and result in a new form, from which one can recognize the creative freedom that Station 17 generate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, we drive slowly with Lawrence from the Forellenhof back to more urban realms. At night, through the province, until more and more lights appear and we finally find ourselves in the middle of a city that doesn't seem to sleep: With a lot of dub, \u003cem\u003eDas Rasen\u003c\/em\u003e thus becomes a deep house track in the hands of Dial Records founder Pete Kersten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStation 17\u003c\/strong\u003e are alive and kickin' - in their own and in other people's clothes. – Hendrik Otremba.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bureau B","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50393470173515,"sku":"2048085","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50393470337355,"sku":"2048094","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/BB431LP_9e18231e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726418063","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/oui-mixe","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
