{"product_id":"total-24","title":"Total 24","description":"\u003cp\u003eHello 24! Nice to have you here. 23 is so yesterday, so over the top, \nreally. Well, we’ve been dancing the following dances recently. What \nabout you?\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat lasts a long time usually turns out well. Having admired Tee Mango \nfrom afar for many years, our A\u0026amp;R Michael Mayer took heart and \ninvited him to this year’s Total. “So In Love” is in the best tradition \nof the Kompakt minimal funk of the early years. We are delighted to have\n this lovely Englishman on board!\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReinhard Voigt has always placed great emphasis on loving animals. On \nthe track with the unsurprising title “Der, der mit dem Gummiball sang \n(Orange)”, he lets whole hordes of different four-legged friends and \npoultry on the microphone. Hopefully the stench will dissipate from the \nstudio.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Rhenish cheerfulness meets holiday anticipation, the result is \nsomething like this Hawaiian shirt turned music called “Chee-Caruso” by \nJurgen Paape. No animals were tortured for this piece either, even if it\n sounds like it.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe stay in the realm of fauna and turn our attention to London’s \naward-winning pedigree dog Rex the Dog. “Laika” is a heart-warming ode \nto the mongrel dog of the same name, who was the first living creature to make it from the streets of Moscow into space. She would have loved that bleep.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA little-known fact about Michael Mayer is that he is one of the fastest\n crossword puzzle foxes on the left bank of the Rhine, always in \nrelentless rivalry with Wolfgang Voigt, who thinks he is even faster. \nThe big battle is yet to come. Uninvited guest with five letters? \n“Urian”.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an integral part of the family, Jonathan Kaspar is of course not to \nbe missed. “Are You” celebrates the kind of early morning rapture that \nis commonplace at his new DJ venue, the brand new Cologne superclub FI. \nEverything is so colourful here.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSascha Funke takes a bow to one of the greats of German showbiz with the\n trippy electro smasher “The Heck”. Born – like DJ Koze and Barnt – in \nFlensburg, died in Berlin in 2018 and wore glasses. More will not be \nrevealed.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore emotion, more love, more sing-along factor? Si, claro! Argias \n“Love Keeps You Running” masterfully combines groove and pop – a blend \nthat sounds very familiar to us. She may be at home in Madrid, but \nthere’s Cologne DNA in her somewhere. We’re sure of it.\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLet’s meet the legends, the veterans! Jorg Burger is still in a \npsychedelic mood in 2024. That suits him, that’s where he needs to be, \nthat’s where we want him to be. A parallel universe is conceivable in \nwhich such music is affectionately called Goa.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nBefore going to bed, the Wassermann reads us a fairy tale from the \nArabian Nights. At the same time, we focus on a point between \neverything, but really everything, and absolute, stark naked \nnothingness. 3, 2, 1… Let go.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kompakt","offers":[{"title":"Black LPx2","offer_id":50380092277067,"sku":"2212262","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50380092080459,"sku":"2212261","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Kompakt_Total_24_7dd33701_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726207029","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/total-24","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
