Q: How do you pay tribute to a musical legend?
A: With music!
Peter Kuhlmann, aka Pete Namlook,
founder of the FAX +49-69/450464 label, passed away unexpectedly in 2012,
leaving behind an incredible catalog of hundreds of releases, composed by
himself and/or collaborators from around the world, full of
electronic music like no one had ever heard before. Namlook's passing
is a great loss to the entire electronic music community and we
are producing a tribute compilation worthy of recognizing the tremendous
impact he had on the world of electronic music.
The result is Die Welt ist Klang, consisting of 4 CDs of tracks from
FAX +49-69/450464 artists, plus 4 CDs of tracks from fans, all housed in
a handsome wooden box.
Many of these tracks were written especially for this compilation, some are lost
tracks which have never seen the light of day, while some have been previously
released.
Such a tribute compilation for one artist is unprecedented and will remain
a testament to how much he meant to artists and fans alike. |
All proceeds from the sales of Die Welt ist Klang will go to the family of Peter Kuhlmann
Over 100 artists pay tribute to one of electronic music's greatest pioneers.
